Do not throw the remote control batteries   away,   they   contain   metals  
w

hich   are   harmful   to   the   environment.
Take
  them   to   an   approved   collection  
po

int.Lost keys
Go to a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's registration document, your personal identification   documents   and   if   possible   the   key   code   label.
The
  CITROËN   dealer   will   be   able   to   look   up   the   key   code   and   the   transponder   code  
r

equired   to   order   a   new   key.
Remote control
The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate it while it is in your pocket   as   there   is   a   possibility   that   it   may   unlock   the   vehicle,   without   you   being   aware   of   it.
Do
  not   repeatedly   press   the   buttons   of   your   remote   control   out   of   range   and   out   of   sight   of  
y

our   vehicle.   You   run   the   risk   of   stopping   it   from   working   and   the   remote   control   would   have  
t

o   be   reinitialised.
No
  remote   control   can   operate   when   the   key   is   in   the   ignition   switch,   even   when   the   ignition  
i

s   switched   off,   except   for   reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compartment by the emergency   services   more   difficult   in   an   emergency.
As
  a   safety   precaution,   never   leave   children   alone   in   the   vehicle,   except   for   a   very   short   period.
In
  all   cases,   it   is   essential   to   remove   the   key   from   the   ignition   switch   when   leaving  
t

he vehicle.
Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifications to the electronic engine immobiliser system; this could c ause m alfunctions.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing of all of the keys in your possession checked by a CITROËN dealer, to ensure   that   only   your   keys   can   be   used   to   open   and   start   the   vehicle.

Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can engage p osition P or N 
to   place   the   gearbox   in   neutral.
In
  both   cases,   apply   the   parking   brake   to
 i

operation
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the gear   selected   flashes   for   a   few   seconds,   then

It
  is   possible   to   change   from   position  d
(automatic)
  to   position   M   (manual)   at   any   time.
When
  the   vehicle   is   stationary   or   moving

Stop & StartThe Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...). The engine   restarts   automatically   -   START   mode   -   as   soon   as   you   want   to   move   off.   The   restart   takes   place   instantly,   quickly   and   silently.
Per fect
  for   urban   use,   the   Stop   &   Start   system   reduces   fuel   consumption   and   exhaust   emissions   as   well   as   the   noise   level   when   stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
For your comfort, during parking manoeuvres,   STOP   mode   is   not  
a

vailable for a few seconds after
coming
  out   of   reverse   gear.
