Activation/deactivation of the park-ing assistance is memorised when you stop the vehicle.
Remark: If you are towing with a towing device not approvedby CITROËN, it is necessary to a towing device ing denot approved
deactivate parking assistance by pressing on button A. The warn-ing lamp on the button lights up.
Operation
When you engage reverse gear, a s o u n d s i g n a l c o n fi r m s t o y o u that the system is active. The out-line of your vehicle appears on the screen. Any obstacles located to the rear or to the front of the vehi-cle can be detected.
When going forward and at a speed below approx. 10 km/h (6 mph), whether in neutral or in gear, the outline of the vehicle appears on the display as soon as an obstacle is detected in front of the vehicle. Obstacles located in front of the vehicle will be detected.
Remarks:The proximity sensors cannot detect objects that are immedi-ately under or over the bump-ers.
A thin object such as a spike, a bollard or similar, can only be detected at the start of the manœuvre but not when the vehicle arrives close up to it.In poor weather or in winter, you need to ensure that the sensors are not covered with mud or with ice or snow.

Operation
Y o u h a v e i d e n t i fi e d a p a r k i n g space:1. Press button A to select the function.2. Activate the relevant direction indicator.
The system will measure the park-ing space:
Note:The function deactivates itself automatically:When you engage reverse gear.
When you switch off the igni-tion.If measuring is not requested in the 5 minutes after selecting the function.
If the vehicle speed exceeds the threshold of 70 km/h (approx. 45 mph) for one minute.
Warning: If the distance between your vehicle and the parking space is over approx. 1,50 m, the system may not be able to measure the space.
Remarks:The function remains available after each measurement and can therefore measure several spaces in succession.In poor weather or in winter, you need to ensure that the sensors are not covered with mud or with ice or snow.
If the Parking Space Sensor function is selected, the Park-ing Assistance function is deac-tivated.

A. Sunlight sensor.B. Soft air conditioning diffusion grille.The soft diffusion grille located in the centre of the dashboard provides an optimum air distribution for the front seats.
This device eliminates unpleasant air currents whilst maintainin g an optimum tempera-ture in the passenger compartment.
To open the soft air diffusion grille, move the control knob upwards.
To close the soft air diffusion grille, move the control knob all the way down.
In very hot weather, to improve the central and lateral venti lation, closing off the soft diffusion air conditioning is recommended.
C. Air conditioned glovebox.D. Rear passenger air vents.

You are advised to use the automatic air conditioning regulation. This automatically regulates the following f u n c t i o n s f o r m a x i m u m c o m f o r t : a i r fl o w , p a s s e n g e r compartment temperature, and air distribution, using different sensors (external temperature, sunlight). This avoids the need to alter any of the settings, with the exception of the temperature displayed.
Take care not to obstruct the sunlight sensor A.
Provided you retain automatic mode (by pressing button “AUTO”) and all the air vents are open, you will main-tain an optimum comfort level, also removing humidity and misting, whatever the ambient climatic conditions.
The temperature inside the cabin cannot be lower than the temperature outside if the air conditioning is not operating.
To be effective, the air conditioning should only be used with the windows closed. If after a lengthy stop in bright sunlight the interior temperature is excessive, air the passenger compartment by opening the windows for a few moments, then close them again.
To ensure the correct operation of the air conditioning system, it is essential to operate the air conditioning at least once a month.
The air conditioning operates by using power from the engine. This results in a slight increase in fuel con-sumption.
In certain extreme operating conditions (e.g. carrying a full load up a steep gradient in high temperatures), the switching off of the air conditioning allows more power to be transferred to the engine, thereby increasing the towing capacity.
Air inlet
Check that the exterior grille for the air inlet, at the bot-tom of the windscreen, is clean and free of dead leaves, snow, etc.
If washing the vehicle with a high pressure jet, avoid targeting the air inlet zone.
Air circulation
For your comfort we advise you to maintain a proper distribution of air within the cabin, both at the front and at the rear.
To obtain an even distribution of air, ensure that you do obstruct the external air inlet grille located at the base of the windscreen, the air vents, the air outlets on the fl o o r u n d e r n e a t h t h e f r o n t s e a t s , a n d t h e a i r e x t r a c t o r l o c a t e d b e h i n d t h e fl a p s i n t h e b o o t .

It is essential to install a CITROËN approved e l e c t r o n i c u n i t w h e n h a v i n g a t o w b a r fi t t e d , in order to prevent any risk of malfunction o r d a m a g e ( r i s k o f fi r e ) .
If you are towing another vehicle, the latter must be free-wheeling (gearbox in neutral).
Do not exceed the maximum permitted load.
For the maximum distributed load on the roof bars: see the chapter “General”.
Towing (Boat, caravan, etc.)
If you are climbing a steep gradient and the engine gets excessively hot, certain functions become unavailable (e.g. sequential control of the automatic gearbox, the air conditioning).
If you are towing with a device not approved by the CITROËN network, you must deactivate parking assistance usi ng the button on the dashboard. See “Parking assistance”.
It is recommended that you remove the towing ball, so that it does not interfere with the functioning of the prox-imity sensors, when you are not using a trailer.
Roof bars
For your safety and to avoid damage to the roof, you should use roof bars that are tested and approved by AUTOMOBILES CITROËN for the design of your par-should use roof bars that are tested and approved by bars that are
ticular vehicle.
Recommendations:Spread the load evenly, avoiding overloading on one side.
Position the heaviest weight as low down as pos-sible.Tie the load down securely and add warning signs if it is protruding.
Drive conservatively, as the vehicle will be more vul-nerable to side winds.
The stability of your vehicle may be altered.Remove the roof rack or roof bars when you are not using them.

T h e w h e e l b o l t s a r e s p e c i fi c t o t h e t y p e o f w h e e l .
If the type of wheel is changed, check with your CITROËN dealer that the wheel bolts are compatible with the new wheels.
Note: take care to note down the code number engrav ed on the head of the anti-theft bolt socket. This will enable you to obtain replacement anti-theft bolt sockets from a dealership.
Spare wheel
Y o u r v e h i c l e m a y b e fi t t e d w i t h a different spare wheel to those on t h e v e h i c l e . W h e n fi t t i n g t h e s p a r e wheel, it is normal to notice that the wheel bolt washers do not come into contact with the wheel rim.
The spare wheel is secured by the conical tapering of the wheel bolt’s shaft. See illustration.
W h e n r e fi t t i n g t h e o r i g i n a l w h e e l , ensure that the wheel bolt contact surfaces are clean and in good condition.
R e fi t t i n g a w h e e l1. Fit the wheel on the hub, using the centring guide. Make sure that the contact surface between the hub and the wheel is clean.2. Screw in the bolts but do not fully tighten them.3. Lower the jack and remove it.4. Tighten the wheel bolts, using the wheelbrace.5. R e fi t t h e p r o t e c t o r s o n t h e bolts.6. Return the ground clearance to the normal position. See chap-ter “Hydractive III+ Suspen-sion”.7. Ensure the tyre pressure is c o r r e c t ( s e e “ V e h i c l e i d e n t i fi c a -tion”) and have the balancing checked.

Such wheels have tyre pressure sensors. It is essential to have repairs carried out by a CITROËN dealer.
Anti-theft bolts
Each wheel is equipped with one anti-theft bolt.
To remove it1. Remove the protector using tool 3.2. Use the anti-theft socket with the handle.
