"Hydractive III +" electronic suspension
The suspension automatically and instantly
adjusts to different driving styles and to
the profile of the road, providing the best
compromise between occupant comfort and
vehicle road holding.
The system alternates between soft and firm
suspension settings, maximising comfort at the
same time as constantly ensuring the highest
level of safety. It also automatically corrects
ride height, according to the vehicle load and
driving conditions.
In addition, the "Hydractive III +" system
allows you to choose between two modes of
suspension.
A change of suspension mode can be made
either when the vehicle is moving or when
stationary, by pressing button A.
Display in the instrument panel
The suspension mode selected is displayed in
the instrument panel screen.
Normal mode
This mode favours soft damping for
maximum comfort.
If the speed authorised for a
particular position is exceeded, the
vehicle reverts automatically to the
normal road position.
SPORT mode
This mode favours dynamic driving. T
he warning lamp on button A comes
on in addition to the message in the
instrument panel screen.
SPORT mode is retained when you
switch off the engine.
Vehicle positions
Position changes may only be made when
the engine is running.
The adjustable ground clearance meets all
types of situation. Apart from a few specific
situations, the vehicle should be in the Normal
position.

General safety recommendations
Labels are applied at various
points on your vehicle. They carry
safety warnings as well as vehicle
identification information. Do not
remove them: they form 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.We draw your attention to the
following points:
- The fitting of electrical equipment or accessories not listed by
CITROËN
may cause 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 reserved 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 Automobiles CITROËN or
carried out without meeting the
technical requirements defined
by the manufacturer would lead
to 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 specification
of transmitters which can be fitted
(frequency, maximum power,
aerial position, specific installation
requirements), in line with the Vehicle
Electromagnetic Compatibility
Directive
(2004/104/EC).
Depending on the legislation in force in
the country, certain safety equipment
may be compulsory: high visibility
safety vests, warning triangles,
breathalyzers, spare bulbs, spare fuses,
fire extinguisher, first aid kit, mud flaps
at the rear of the vehicle.
The fitting of electrical equipment
or accessories which are not
recommended by CITROËN may result
in a failure of your vehicle's electronic
system and excessive electrical
consumption.
Contact a CITROËN dealer
for information on the range of
recommended equipment and
accessories.

Trajectory control systems
Anti-slip regulation (ASR) and dynamic stability
control (DSC)
Activation
This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument panel.
Your vehicle has a system to improve traction
on snow: intelligent traction control
.
This system detects situations of low adhesion
that might make moving off and progress
difficult on deep fresh snow or compacted
snow.
In these situations the intelligent traction
control system regulates the amount of wheel
slip to optimise the traction and trajectory
control of your vehicle.
For vehicles with Hydractive III + suspension,
manual adjustment of ground clearance to
the intermediate position improves further the
ability to make progress in deep snow (see the
relevant paragraph).
The anti-slip regulation (also known as traction
control) optimises traction to prevent skidding
of the wheels, by acting on the brakes of the
driving wheels and on the engine.
The electronic stability control acts on the
brake of one or more wheels and on the engine
to keep the vehicle on the trajectory required
by the driver, within the limits of the laws of
physics.
Intelligent traction control
system ("Snow motion")
These systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event of a grip
or trajectory problem.
The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on sur faces with low
adhesion.

Brake fluid level
The brake fluid level should be close
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.
Changing the fluid
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the interval for this operation.
Fluid specification
The brake fluid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Power steering or power
steering and suspension
fluid level
For topping up, it is necessary to go
to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Coolant level
The coolant level should be close
to the "MA X" mark but should never
exceed it.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations. The cooling fan may star t after switching
off the engine: take care with ar ticles and
clothing that might be caught by the fan
blades.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying out any
work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
by two turns to allow the pressure to drop.
When the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top-up the level. When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan.

If your vehicle is fitted with a spare
wheel of a different size to those on the
vehicle, you must not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h) whilst using the spare wheel.
The wheel bolts are specific to the type
of wheel.
If the type of wheel is changed,
check with your CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop that the wheel bolts
are compatible with the new wheels.
Take care to note down the code
number engraved on the head of the
security bolt socket. This will enable
you to obtain a replacement security
bolt socket from your dealer.
