COMFORT
Air conditioning
We recommend use of the automatic
regulation of the air conditioning.
It permits automatic and optimised
control of all of the following functions:
air fl ow, temperature in the passenger
compartment and air distribution, by
means of various sensors (ambient
temperature, sunshine). This elimi-
nates any need for you to change
your settings other than the tempera-
ture value displayed.
)
Take care not to cover the sun-
shine sensor A
.
If you select the automatic mode
(by pressing the "AUTO" control)
and leave all of the vents open, opti-
mum comfort will be maintained and
humidity and condensation will be
removed regardless of the exterior
climatic conditions.
The temperature in the passenger
compartment can only be lower than
the ambient temperature if the air
conditioning is on.
HEATING, VENTILATION
AND AIR CONDITIONING
RECOMMENDATIONS In order to be effective, the air
conditioning must be used with the
windows closed. If the vehicle has
been parked in the sun for a long
period and the interior tempera-
ture is very high, fi rst ventilate the
passenger compartment with the
windows open for a few minutes,
then close the windows.
To keep the air conditioning system
in good working order it is essential
that it is operated at least once a
month.
The air conditioning uses engine
power during its operation. As a
result, the fuel consumption of the
vehicle increases.
In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (e.g. towing the maximum
load on a steep gradient in high
temperatures), switching off the air
conditioning saves engine power
and improves the towing capacity.
Air inlet
Check that the exterior grille for the
air inlet, at the bottom of the wind-
screen, is clean and free of dead
leaves, snow, etc.
When washing the vehicle using a
high pressure nozzle, avoid spraying
at the air inlet.
Air circulation
Maximum comfort is obtained by
means of a good distribution of air in
the passenger compartment, both in
the front and in the rear.
To obtain a uniform distribution of
air, take care not to block the ex-
terior air intake grille located at the
base of the windscreen, the vents,
the air outlets under the front seats
and the air extractor located behind
the fl aps in the boot.
The front and rear vents are fi tted
with thumbwheels to adjust the air
fl ow and direction. We recommend
that you leave all of the vents open.
Dust filter/Odour filter
(active carbon)
There is a fi lter for excluding odours
and dust.
This fi lter must be changed in line
with the vehicle’s servicing schedule
(see the vehicle’s servicing booklet).

PROGRAMMABLE HEATING
The programmable heating operates
independently of the engine.
When the engine is off, it pre-heats
the coolant circuit in order to benefi t
from an optimum engine operating
temperature from the time the en-
gine is switched on.
The programmable heating system
is switched on using the long range
remote control. Activation can be im-
mediate or deferred by means of a
programming function.
Programming remote control
The heating system programming
remote control consists of the fol-
lowing buttons and displays:
1.
Scrolling functions menu buttons.
2.
Function indicator lights: clock,
temperature, operating time, pro-
grammed time, heater operation,
heating management symbols.
3.
Digital displays: time, tempera-
ture, duration of operation, pro-
grammed time or level of heating.
4.
Off button.
5.
On button.
Displays on the remote
control screen
Press the buttons 1
in succession to
display the functions.
The fi rst press of the left-hand or
right-hand button displays the time.
Next, the left-hand button permits ac-
cess to the programming time then to
the level of heating (C1 to C5).
The right-hand button permits ac-
cess to the passenger compartment
temperature then to the duration of
operation of the heater if it is to be
switched on immediately.
If a malfunction of the program-
mable heating system occurs,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
Displaying the functions
The passenger compartment
temperature information is only
available when the engine is off.

COMFORT
Changing the battery
The remote control is supplied by a
6 V-28L battery, which is supplied.
Information on the display indicates
when it is time to replace this battery.
Unclip the casing then replace the
battery.
The remote control must then be
reinitialised, see below.
Always switch off the program-
mable heating while fi lling with
fuel to avoid any risk of fi re or
explosion.
To avoid any risk of poisoning and
asphyxiation, the programmable
heating must not be used, even
for short periods, in an enclosed
space such as a garage or work-
shop which is not equipped with an
exhaust gas extraction system.
Do not park the vehicle on an
infl ammable surface (dry grass,
dead leaves, paper…), there is a
risk of fi re.
The programmable heating system
is supplied by the vehicle's fuel tank.
Before use, ensure that the quantity
of fuel remaining is suffi cient. If the
fuel tank is at the reserve, we strong-
ly advise that you do not programme
the heating.
Do not discard the used
batteries, take them to an
approved collection point.
Reinitialising the remote control
If the vehicle's battery is disconnected
or the remote control's battery is re-
placed, the remote control must be
reinitialised.
After switching on the power, press
button 4
(OFF) for 1 second within
the next 5 seconds. If the operation
has taken place correctly the mes-
sage "OK"
is displayed on the remote
control screen.
If a problem occurs, the message
"FAIL"
appears. Repeat the operation.
In addition, your programmable
heating can be used to pre-heat
your vehicle's passenger com-
partment.
The interior volumetric protection
alarm movement sensor may be
disturbed by the fl ow of air from
the programmable heating when
it is in operation.
To avoid any unexpected trigger-
ing of the alarm during use of the
programmable heating, it is ad-
visable to deactivate the interior
volumetric protection.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
TOWING A TRAILER,
A CARAVAN, ETC.
Towbar suitable for the attachment
of a trailer or caravan with additional
lighting and signalling.
Your vehicle is primarily designed
for transporting people and luggage,
but it may also be used for towing a
trailer.
We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
your vehicle, and that the fi tting of the
towbar is entrusted to a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a
CITROËN dealer, it is impera-
tive that it is fi tted in accordance
with the vehicle manufacturer's in-
structions.
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
the driver must take particular care.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads
)
Distribute the load in the trailer
so that the heaviest items are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without ex-
ceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude,
thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10 %
for every 1 000 metres of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section
for details of the weights and towed
loads which apply to your vehicle.
Side wind
)
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled,
its cooling capacity is not dependent
on the engine speed.
)
To lower the engine speed, re-
duce your speed. The maximum towed load on a long
incline depends on the gradient and
the ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the
coolant temperature.
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 recom-
mended.
Tyres
)
Check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended
pressures.
Lighting
)
Check the electrical lighting and
signalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a gen-
uine CITROËN towbar is used.
)
If the warning lamp and
the STOP
warning lamp
come on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
