General safety
recommendations
Labels are affixed in different locations on
your vehicle. They include safety warnings
and vehicle identification information. Do
not remove them: they are an integral part
of your vehicle.
For any work on your vehicle, use
a qualified workshop that has the technical
information, skills and equipment required,
all of which a
CITROËN dealer is able to
provide.
Depending on country regulations, some
safety equipment may be compulsory:
high visibility safety vests, warning
triangles, breathalysers, spare bulbs,
spare fuses, fire extinguisher, first aid kit,
mud flaps at the rear of the vehicle, etc. We draw your attention to the following
points:
-

T
he fitting of electrical equipment
or accessories not approved by
CITROËN may cause excessive
current consumption and faults and
failures with the electrical system of
your vehicle. Contact a
CITROËN
dealer for information on the range of
recommended accessories.
-

A
s a safety measure, access to
the diagnostic socket, used for the
vehicle's electronic systems, is
reser ved strictly for CITROËN dealers
or qualified workshops, equipped
with the special tools required (risk
of malfunctions of the vehicle's
electronic systems that could cause
breakdowns or serious accidents).
The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible if this advice is not
followed.
-

A
ny modification or adaptation not
intended or authorised by CITROËN
or carried out without meeting the
technical requirements defined by
the manufacturer will result in the
suspension of the legal and contractual
warranties. Installation of accessory radio
communication transmitters
Before installing a


radio communication
transmitter, you must contact a CITROËN
dealer for the specifications of compatible
transmitters (frequency, maximum power,
aerial position, specific installation
requirements), in line with the Vehicle
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive
(2004/104/EC).
Hazard warning lamps

is moving. If position N is selected by
mistake while driving, allow the engine
to return to idle, then select position D to
accelerate.
Never select position P or R unless the
vehicle is completely stationary.
If you wish to engage reverse gear,
to prevent jolting, do not accelerate
immediately after selecting R.
Selection of position R is accompanied by
the sound of a
beep.
In the event of a
battery failure, you
must place the chocks supplied with the
vehicle tools against one of the wheels to
immobilise the vehicle.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox,
never try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.Automatic mode

If you release the accelerator sharply, the
gearbox will not change to a
higher gear for
safety reasons.
Temporary control of gear
changing
You can temporarily take control of gear
changes using the steering mounted control
paddles " +" and " -". The gear change
instruction is acted on if the engine speed
permits.
This function allows you to anticipate certain
situations, such as overtaking another vehicle
or approaching a
bend in the road.
After a
few moments with no action on the
control paddles, the gearbox returns to
automatic operation.
