e
lectrical systems of your vehicle.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied - Risk of overheating and
d
amage to the braking system!
Do
not park or run the engine when
s
tationary in areas where inflammable
s
ubstances and materials (dry grass,
d
ead leaves...) might come into contact
w
ith the hot exhaust system - Risk of
f
ire!
Never
leave a vehicle unsupervised
w

Anti-theft protection
Electronic engine immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has a special code. When the ignition is switched
o
n, this code must be recognised in order for
s
tarting to be possible.
This
electronic engine immobiliser locks the
e
ngine management system a few moments
a
fter the ignition is switched off and prevents
s
tarting of the engine by anyone who does not
h
ave the key.In the event of a fault, you are
informed
by illumination of this
w
arning lamp, an audible signal and
a
message in the screen.It
has 3 positions:
-

In this position the vehicle's electrical equipment can be used or accessories

When
the state of charge of the battery
d
rops to a reserve level, the system goes into

a
utomatically cut off to preserve the state of

Stop & Start requires a 12 V battery with a special specification and
t
echnology.
All
work on this type of battery must
o
nly be done by a CITROËN dealer or
a
qualified workshop.

more information on the 12 V
b
attery, please see the corresponding
s
ection.

i
t is strongly recommended that you
d
eactivate the Stop & Start system.
For
more advice on driving,
p
articularly on flooded roads, refer to

Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables you to obtain the optimum braking pressure more
q
uickly, thus reducing the stopping distance.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake pedal is pressed.
The
effect of this is a reduction in the
r
esistance of the pedal and an increase in
b
raking
e
fficiency.
When
braking in an emergency, press
f
irmly without releasing the pressure.
Trajectory control systems
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and dynamic stability
control (
d
SC)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as traction control) optimises traction to prevent skidding
o
f the wheels, by acting on the brakes of the
d
riving wheels and on the engine.
The electronic stability control acts on the
brake
of one or more wheels and on the engine
t
o keep the vehicle on the trajectory required
b
y the driver, within the limits of the laws of
p
hysics.Activation
These systems are activated automatically each time the vehicle is started.
They
come into operation in the event of a grip
o
r
t
rajectory
pro
blem.
This
is indicated by flashing of this
w
arning lamp in the instrument panel.

Fuel tankFuel tank capacity: approximately 50 litres (petrol) or 46 litres (diesel);
(dep ending on version: approximately 30 litres (petrol or di esel)).
Low fuel level
Filling
A label affixed to the inside of the flap reminds you of the type of fuel to be used depending on
y
our
eng
ine.
Additions
of fuel must be of at least 7 litres, in
o
rder to be registered by the fuel gauge.The
key cannot be removed from the
l
ock until the cap is refitted.
Opening
the filler cap may create a
n
oise caused by an inrush of air. This
v
acuum is entirely normal, resulting
f
rom the sealing of the fuel system.
To
fill the tank safely:
F t he engine must be switched off,
F o pen the fuel filler flap,
F
i
nsert the key in the cap, then turn it to
t
he
left,F
r
emove the cap and hook it onto the clip l
ocated on the inside of the flap,
F f ill the tank, but do not continue after the
3rd cut- off of the pump ;
this could cause
m
alfunctions.
When
you have filled the tank:
F
p
ut the cap back in place,
F
t
urn the key to the right, then remove it
f
rom the cap,
F
c
lose the flap.
When the fuel tank minimum level is reached this warning lamp comes on o
n the instrument panel. When it first
c
omes on there remains approximately
5 litres
of fuel in the tank.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
o
ff the ignition with the key.
You
must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
r
unning out of fuel.
If
you
run out of fuel (Diesel), refer also to the
"
Checks"
s
ection.
