Following reconnection of 
the battery
Following reconnection of the battery, 
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute 
before starting to permit initialisation 
of the electronic systems. However, if 
slight malfunctions remain following this 
operation, contact a CITRoËn dealer 
or a qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, 
you must yourself reinitialise:
-  the remote control key,
-  the glass panoramic roof blind,
-  the radio station presets, the date 
and time in the audio system.
Starting using another 
battery
If your vehicle's battery is discharged, the 
engine can be started using a slave battery 
(external or on another vehicle) and jump lead 
cables.
Before disconnecting the 
battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the 
ignition before disconnecting the battery.
Close the windows and the doors before 
disconnecting the battery. F 
Connect the red cable to the positive 
terminal (+) of the flat battery A , then to the 
positive terminal (+) of the slave battery B .
F  Connect one end of the green or black 
cable to the negative terminal (-) of the 
slave battery B .
F  Connect the other end of the green or black 
cable to the earth point C on the broken 
down vehicle.
F  Start the engine on the other vehicle and 
leave it running for a few minutes.
F  Operate the starter, let the engine run.
  If the engine does not start straight away, 
switch the ignition off and wait a few 
moments before trying again.
F  Wait until the engine returns to idle and 
disconnect the jump lead cables in reverse 
o r d e r.
First check that the slave battery has a 
nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity 
at least equal to the battery on your 
vehicle.
Do not try to start the engine by 
connecting a battery charger.
Do not disconnect the battery (+) 
terminal when the engine is running.

Blanking cover
When towing, you must remove the blanking 
cover in the front bumper as well as the bonnet 
seal if fitted.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop for this.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing 
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the 
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling 
on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be 
deactivated automatically if a genuine 
CITROËN towbar is used.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a long 
mountain type of descent, the use of engine 
braking is recommended.

Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style 
of driving, particularly in the case 
of vehicles used in town, over short 
distances. It may be necessary to have 
the condition of the brakes checked, 
even between vehicle services.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake 
disc wear, contact a CITRoËn dealer 
or a qualified workshop.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in 
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake 
pads are worn.
Manual parking brake
Only use products recommended by 
CITROËN or products of equivalent 
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of 
units as important as those in the 
braking system, CITROËN selects and 
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, 
or in wintry conditions, ice can form 
on the brake discs and pads: braking 
efficiency may be reduced. Make light 
brake applications to dry and defrost 
the brakes.
If a loss of effectiveness of this 
system is noticed, the parking 
brake must be checked, even 
between two services.
Checking this system must be done by a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Electric parking   
brake
This system does not require any 
routine servicing. However, in the 
event of a problem, have the system 
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
For more information, refer to the 
"Electric parking brake - Operating 
faults" section.
