Avoid attaching heavy objects to the
key or the remote control, which would
weigh down on its blade in the ignition
switch and could cause a malfunction.
It could adversely affect the
deployment of the front airbag.
Starting / Switching off the engine with the key
It has 3 positions:
- position 1 (Stop): insert and removing the
key,
-
position 2 (Ignition on) : steering column
unlocked, ignition on, Diesel preheating,
engine running,
-
position 3 (Starting) .
Ignition switch
Ignition on position
It allows the use of the vehicle's electric
equipment or portable devices to be charged.
Once the state of charge of the battery drops
to the reserve level, the system switches to
energy economy mode: the power supply is
cut off automatically to preserve the remaining
battery charge.
Switching off the engine leads to a loss
of braking assistance.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic engine immobiliser
In the event of a fault, you are
informed by illumination of this
warning lamp, an audible signal
and/or the display of a message,
depending on version.
Keep safely, away from your vehicle,
the label attached to the keys given to
you on acquisition of the vehicle.
In this case, your vehicle will not start; contact
a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible. The keys contain an electronic chip which has
a special code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised for engine
starting to be authorised.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks the
engine management system a few minutes
after the ignition is switched off and prevents
starting of the engine by anyone who does not
have the key.

In wintry conditions, the warning lamp
can stay on for a longer period. When
the engine is hot, the warning lamp
does not come on.
In certain cases, you may have to apply
more force to the steering (wheels on
full lock, for example). If the engine does not start straight
away, switch off the ignition. Wait a
few moments before operating the
starter motor again. If the engine does
not start after several attempts, do not
keep trying: you risk damaging the
starter motor or the engine. Contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.In temperate conditions, do not leave
the engine at idle to warm up but move
off straight away and drive at moderate
speed.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion
engines emit toxic exhaust gases,
such as carbon monoxide. Danger of
intoxication and death!
In very severe wintry conditions
(temperatures below -23°C), to ensure
the correct operation and durability of
the mechanical components of your
vehicle, engine and gearbox, it is
necessary to leave the engine running
for 4 minutes before moving off.

(breakdown, caravan...). Deactivate the
automatic functions and release the
parking brake manually.
If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel, the automatic
mode is deactivated.
Programming the mode
Depending on the country of sale of the vehicle,
the automatic application when the engine is
switched off and the automatic release when
you press the accelerator can be deactivated. Activation / deactivation is done
using the vehicle configuration
menu; refer to the section covering
the configuration of your vehicle's
systems.
The parking brake is then applied and released
