ANTI-THEFT PROTECTION
When you start the vehicle, doors
and boot closed, the system
automatically locksthe doorsas soon as you reach a speed of
around 6 mph (10 km/h).Note: If a door has been opened, this will lock again automatically whenthe vehicle reaches approx. 6 mph(10 km/h).

The boot locks automatically as soon as the vehicle reaches a
speed of around6 mph (10 km/h).Note: The opening of a door or use of the control A unlocks the vehicle.
Your vehicle is fi tted with doors that have frameless windows. When you open the doors, immediately youaction the exterior handle, a micro-descent device on the SIDE WINDOWS lowers the glass slightly.
If this device were not working properly, it could result in thewindows breaking:If there should be a battery failure:
Open the doors gently.Do not close the door abruptly as this risks breaking the window, if possible wait until the battery ispowering the vehicle again.If you are intending to work on the battery, open the windows fi rst.In freezing conditions, ice may form to hinder the operation of the micro-descent device. If the actionon the door handle does not move the window down, it is essential fi rst to free the ice.

The programmable heating sys-
tem operates independently of theengine.
With the engine off, it is used topreheat the engine cooling systemso as to have an optimum engine
operating temperature on starting.
The programmable heating sys-
tem is started using a long-rangeremote control. It can be startedimmediately or programmed tostart later.
In the event of a malfunction of the programmable heating sys-tem, contact a CITROËN dealer pg gy
or a qualifi ed workshop.
Remote control
The remote control for the program-
mable heating system includes the following buttons and display infor-
mation:1. Menu function scroll buttons.
2. Function symbols: clock,
temperature, operating duration, programmed time, heater operation, heater control.3. Digital display of: time,

Replacing the battery
The remote control is powered bya 6 V-28L battery cell, which isincluded.
Information appears on the screen
when this battery should be replaced.
Unclip the casing and replace thebattery.
Th
e remote control must then bere-initialised, as described on thispage.
Do not discard old batteries; take
them to an approved recyclingpoint.
Re-initialisation of the remote control
Always switch off the program-mable heating while refuelling inorder to avoid the risk of fi re or explosion.
To avoid the risk of intoxicationor asphyxiation, the program-mable heating should not beused, even for a short time, inan enclosed space such as agarage, or workshop withoutexhaust gas extraction.
Do not park the vehicle over infl ammable materials (drygrass, dead leaves, papers…),as there is a risk of fi re.
The programmable heating sys-tem is supplied by the vehicleísfuel tank. Before using it, ensurethat there is suffi cient fuel in thetank. If the low fuel warning lampis on we strongly recommendthat you do not programme theheating to come on.
PROGRAMMABLE HEATING
If the battery is disconnected or
replaced, the remote control must be re-initialised.
After switchin
g on, within fi veseconds press button4(OFF) for
1 second.
If the o
peration is successful, the "OK" message appears in the
remote control screen.
If not, the
"FAIL"message
appears. Repeat the procedure.
As a secondar
y advantage, use of your programmable heating sys-
tem allows it to be used to pre-heat
t
he passenger compartment.

FUEL
If you should put in fuel that is not suitable for your vehicle'sengine type, it is imperative to have the tank drained beforeyou start the engine again.
While you are refuelling, theengine must be stopped and the
ignition switched off.
When you are seeking to fi ll your
tank, do not persist after the
third cut-off; that could cause
your vehicle to malfunction.
Fuel must be added in quantitiesof more than 5 litres to be reco-gnised by the fuel gauge.
To open the fl ap, press button A. Undo the cap and attach it to the
tab on the inside of the fl ap.
Opening the cap can trigger a
vacuum. This results in a noise caused by the sealing of the fuel circuit.Note: The fuel fl ap is locked when you lock your vehicle with the remote control.
FUEL QUALITY
A label inside the fi ller fl ap tells you
which type of fuel to use.
Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectlycompatible with biofuels whichconform to current and futureEuropean standards (Diesel fuel
which complies with standard EN
590 mixed with a biofuel whichcomplies with standard EN 14214)which can be distributed at thepumps (possible incorporation of 0
to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The use of an
y other type of (bio)fuel (vegetable or animal oils,
domestic fuel oil, etc.) is strictlyprohibited (risk of damage to theengine and fuel circuit).
