Access
2Closing the windows and the sunroof
Maintaining pressure on the door handle or
the tailgate control allows the windows and,
depending on version, the sunroof to be closed
to the desired position.
This operation also closes the sunroof blind.
Make sure that no item or person could
prevent the correct closing of the
windows and sunroof.
Be particularly aware of children when
operating the windows.
Illumination of the direction indicators for a few
seconds signals:
–

the locking of the vehicle for versions without
alarm,
–


the activation of the alarm for other versions.
Depending on version, the door mirrors fold.
For safety and theft protection reasons,
never leave the electronic key in the
vehicle, even when you are close to it.
Accumulations (water, dust, grime, salt etc.) on the inner surface of the door
handle may affect detection.
If cleaning the inner surface of the door
handle using a cloth does not restore
detection, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
A sudden splash of water (stream of water,
high pressure jet washer, etc.) may be
identified by the system as the desire to open
the vehicle.
Deadlocking
Deadlocking deactivates the exterior and
interior door controls, as well as the
central locking button on the dashboard.
The horn remains operational.
You must therefore never leave anyone inside
the vehicle when it is deadlocked.
►

With the electronic key in recognition zone A

,
press once with your finger or thumb on the door
handle of one of the front doors (at the markings)
or on the locking control located on the tailgate
(at the right of the control) to lock the vehicle.
►

Within 5 seconds, press the door handle
again to deadlock the vehicle.
Advice
Remote control
The remote control is a sensitive, high-
frequency device; avoid handling it in your
pocket, due to the risk of unintentionally
unlocking the vehicle.
Avoid pressing the remote control buttons
while out of range of the vehicle, due to
the risk of rendering the remote control
inoperative. It would then be necessary to
reset it.
The remote control does not work
when the
key is in the ignition switch, even when the
ignition is switched off.
Anti-theft protection
Do not modify the electronic vehicle
immobiliser, as this might result in
malfunctions.
For vehicles with a key ignition switch,
remember to remove the key and turn the
steering wheel to engage the steering lock.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked could make
it more difficult for the emergency services
to enter the passenger compartment in an
emergency.
As a safety precaution, remove the key from
the ignition or take the electronic key with you
when leaving the vehicle, even for a short
time.
Purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the key codes memorised by a
CITROËN dealer, to ensure that the keys in
your possession are the only ones able to
start the vehicle.

In the event of a breakdown
► At the end of the charging operation, switch
off charger B
before disconnecting the cables
from battery A.
If this label is present, use only a 12 V
charger to avoid causing irreversible
damage to the electrical components
connected to the Stop & Start system.
24V
12V
Never try to charge a frozen battery - risk
of explosion!
If the battery has frozen, have it checked by a
CITROËN dealer or by a qualified workshop
who will verify that the internal components
have not been damaged and that the case
has not cracked, which would mean a risk of
toxic and corrosive acid leaking.
Disconnecting the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state of charge
for starting the engine, it is recommended that
the battery be disconnected if the vehicle is
taken out of service for a long period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
►

Close all openings (doors, boot, windows,
roof). ►


Switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, etc.).
►

Switch off the ignition and wait for 4
minutes.
At the battery, it is only necessary to disconnect
the (+) terminal.
Quick-release terminal clamp
Disconnecting the (+) terminal

► Depending on equipment, lift the plastic cover
on the (+) terminal.
►

Raise lever

A
fully to release clamp

by lifting it off.
Reconnecting the (+) terminal

► Raise lever A fully.
► Refit the open clamp B on the (+) terminal.
►

Push clamp
B fully down.
►

Lower lever

A
to lock clamp B.
►

Depending on equipment, lower the plastic
cover on the

(+) terminal.
Do not force the lever as locking will be
impossible if the clamp is not positioned
correctly; start the procedure again.
After reconnection
After reconnecting the battery, turn on the
ignition and wait 1 minute before starting the
engine, to enable the electronic systems to
initialise.
If minor problems nevertheless persist following
this operation, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the relevant section, reset certain
equipment:
– Remote control key or electronic key
(depending on version).
– Sunroof and electric sun blind.
– Electric windows.
– Date and time.
– Preset radio stations.
The Stop & Start system may not be
operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be
available again after a continuous period of
immobilisation of the vehicle, a period which
depends on the exterior temperature and the
state of charge of the battery (up to about 8
hours).
Accessory battery (Rechargeable hybrid)
The rechargeable hybrid system has two
accessory batteries: one at the front and one at
the rear of the vehicle.
The batteries contain harmful substances (sulphuric acid and lead).
They must be disposed of in accordance
with regulations and must never under any
circumstances be discarded with household
waste.
