"Normal ": offers the best compromise between
a comfortable temperature and quiet operation
(default setting).

the comfort of passengers in the rear seats.
This setting is associated with automatic mode
only. However, on deactivation of AUTO mode,
the indicator lamp for the last setting remains

In cold weather with the engine cold, the
air flow is increased gradually until the
comfort setting has been reached, in order
to limit the delivery of cold air into the
passenger compartment.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than the comfort setting requested, there
is no need to alter the value displayed
to more quickly reach the required level
of comfort. The system automatically

Advice
The driver must ensure that passengers
use the seat belts correctly and that they
are all fastened before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for
short journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt buckles,
as they will not fulfil their role fully.
The seat belts are equipped with an
inertia reel which allows the strap length
to automatically adjust to your shape.
The seat belt returns to its storage
automatically when it is not used.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in the
event of a
collision, emergency braking or
if the vehicle rolls over. You can release
the device by pulling the strap firmly and
then releasing it so that it reels in slightly.
Before and after use, ensure that the seat
belt is reeled in correctly.
After folding or moving a
seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
positioned and reeled in correctly. Installation
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in the
hollow of the shoulder.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
-

b
e tightened as close to the body as
possible,
-

b
e pulled in front of you with a smooth
movement, checking that it does not
twist,
-

b
e used to restrain only one person,
-

n
ot show any signs of cuts or fraying,
-

n
ot be converted or modified in order
not to affect its per formance.
Recommendations for children
Use a
child seat appropriate to the child's
age, weight and size.
Never use the same seat belt to secure
more than one child.
Never allow a
child to travel on your lap.
For more information on Child seats , refer
to the corresponding section. Servicing
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all repairs on your
vehicle's seat belts, go to a
qualified
workshop with the skills and equipment
needed, which a
CITROËN dealer is able
to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regularly
by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop, particularly if the straps show
signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a
textile cleaning product, sold by
CITROËN dealers.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and seriousness
of the impacts, the pyrotechnic device
may trigger before and independently of
airbag deployment. Deployment of the
pretensioners is accompanied by a
slight
discharge of harmless smoke and a
noise,
due to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat belt
system checked, and, if necessary,
replaced, by a
CITROËN dealer or
a


qualified workshop.
