SAFETY
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
Sensors fi tted in each valve check
the tyre pressure during driving and
trigger a warning in the event of
malfunction (speed above 12 mph
(20 km/h)).
Under-infl ated tyre The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is an aid to driving which
does not replace the vigilance or
responsibility of the driver.
Puncture
The service warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction screen lo-
cating the wheel concerned.
Check the tyre pressures as soon as
possible. This check must be carried
out when the tyres are cold. The STOP
warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction screen lo-
cating the wheel concerned.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-
den movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
tured or very defl ated tyre), and
have the tyre pressure checked as
soon as possible.
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
The service warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction screen
locating the wheel or wheels which
are not detected or indicating a fault
in the system.
Have the faulty sensor(s) checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop. All repairs and changing of tyres
on a wheel fi tted with this system
must be carried out by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you in-
stall a wheel which is not detected
by your vehicle (example: fi tting
of snow tyres), you must have the
system reinitialised by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
This system does not avoid the
need to have the tyre pressures
checked regularly (refer to the
"Technical data - Identifi cation
markings" section) to ensure that
the optimum dynamic performance
of the vehicle is maintained and
prevent premature wear of the
tyres, particularly in arduous driv-
ing conditions (heavy load, high
speed).
The tyre pressures must be
checked cold, at least once a
month. Remember to check the
pressure of the spare wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to electro-magnetic
signals on a frequency close to that
used by the system.
This message is also displayed
when one of the wheels is away
from the vehicle (being repaired) or
when one or more wheels without a
sensor are fi tted.
The spare wheel is not fi tted with a
sensor.

CHECKS
CHECKS
12 V battery
The battery does not re-
quire any maintenance.
However, check that the
terminals are clean and
correctly tightened, partic-
ularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the bat-
tery, refer to the "Practical information"
section for details of the precautions
to be taken before disconnecting the
battery and following its reconnection.
Particle filter system (Diesel)
Complementary to the catalytic
converter, this fi lter makes an ac-
tive contribution to the preservation
of air quality by the retaining of the
unburnt pollutant particles. Black
exhaust fumes are thus no longer
emitted.
After prolonged idling or driving
at very low speeds, you may oc-
casionally notice water vapour be-
ing emitted from the exhaust when
accelerating. This is of no conse-
quence to the running of the vehicle
or to the environment.
If there is risk of clogging, a mes-
sage appears on the multifunction
screen, accompanied by an audible
signal and lighting of the service
warning lamp.
This alert tells you that the particle
fi lter is starting to fi ll up (in condi-
tions of urban driving of excep-
tionally long duration: low speeds,
traffi c jams etc.)
To regenerate the fi lter, it is advised
to drive as soon as possible, when
traffi c conditions permit, at a speed
of 40 mph (around 60 km/h) or
more for at least fi ve minutes (until
the alert message disappears).
If this alert persists, consult a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
The presence of this label, in par-
ticular with the Stop & Start system,
indicates the use of a specifi c 12 V
lead-acid battery with special tech-
nology and specifi cation, for which
the involvement of a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop is
required when replacing or discon-
necting the battery. Failure to observe this recommen-
dation may shorten the life of the
battery.
Unless otherwise indicated, check
these components in accordance
with the servicing booklet and ac-
cording to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Refer to the servicing
booklet for details of the
replacement intervals for
these components.
Depending on the environ-
ment (e.g. dusty atmosphere) and
the use of the vehicle (e.g. city driv-
ing), replace them twice as often
if necessary
(refer to the "Engines"
section).
A clogged passenger compartment
fi lter may have an adverse effect on
the performance of the air condition-
ing system and generate undesir-
able odours.
Oil filter
Replace the oil fi lter each
time the engine oil is
changed.
Refer to the servicing
booklet for details of the
replacement interval for this compo-
nent.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Temporary use spare wheel
If your vehicle is equipped with a
spare wheel for temporary use only,
when fi tting this it is normal to ob-
serve that the wheel bolts do not
come to bear directly on the wheel
rim.
The spare wheel is secured by the
conical tapering of the wheel bolt’s
shaft.
When refi tting the original wheel, en-
sure that the wheel bolts and wash-
ers are clean and in good condition.
Fitting a wheel
)
Position the wheel with the aid of
the centring guide 3
.
)
Do up the 3 bolts by hand, then
remove the centring guide 3
.
Position the 4 th bolt.
)
Pre-tighten the wheel bolts, us-
ing the wheelbrace 4
.
)
Retract the jack 5
and disengage it.
)
Tighten the wheel bolts, using
the wheelbrace 4
.
)
Ensure that the tyre pressure is
correct.
Under-infl ation detection
Wheels with under-infl ation detection
have tyre pressure sensors. Have repairs
to them carried out by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop. The spare wheel
does not have a sensor.
Security bolts (alloy wheels)
Each wheel may be equipped with
one security bolt (depending on the
country of sale).
To remove it:
)
remove its protective cover us-
ing of the tool for removing the
chrome covers 2
.
)
use the security bolt socket 6
with the wheelbrace 4
.
Spare wheel dimensions
If your spare wheel has dimensions
different from those of the standard
vehicle wheels (identifi ed by a la-
bel), it is imperative to use the spare
wheel only temporarily, to drive
with caution, not to exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h) and to have the tyre re-
paired and the standard wheel refi t-
ted as soon as possible.
Tyre pressures
These are indicated on the label
on the front left-hand door pillar
(see "Technical Data - Identifi cation
markings").
The wheel bolts are specifi c
to each type of wheel.
If new wheels are fi tted, check with
your CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop that the wheel bolts are
compatible with the new wheels.
Make a note of the code number on
the head of the security bolt sock-
et. This will enable you to obtain a
replacement security bolt socket
from your dealer.
