49Monitoring

Power steering
fixed. The power steering has a fault. Drive carefully at reduced speed.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.




Under-inflation


fixed. The pressure in one or more wheels
is too low. Check the pressure of the tyres as soon as possible.
This check should preferably be carried out when the
tyres are cold.

+
flashing then fixed,
accompanied by the
Ser vice warning lamp. The tyre pressure monitoring system
has a fault or no sensor is detected
on one of the wheels. Under-inflation detection is not assured.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.




Directional
headlamps


flashing. The directional headlamps system
has a fault. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Warning lamp



is on



Cause



Action/Observations






Foot on the brake
pedal


fixed. The brake pedal is not pressed. With an electronic gearbox, press the brake pedal to
start the engine (lever in position N
).
If you wish to release the parking brake without
pressing the brake pedal, this warning lamp will remain
on.

flashing. With an electronic gearbox, if you hold
the vehicle on a rising incline using
the accelerator for too long, the clutch
overheats. Use the brake pedal and/or the electric parking brake.




Airbags


temporarily. This lamp comes on for a few
seconds when you turn on the
ignition, then goes off. This lamp should go off when the engine is started.
If it does not go off, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

fixed. One of the airbag or seat belt
pretensioner systems has a fault. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

215Driving

Under-inflation alert


The loss of pressure detected does
not always lead to visible deformation
of the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual
check.

This alert is also displayed when one or
more wheels is not fitted with a sensor.

The alert is maintained until the tyre
or tyres concerned is reinflated or
repaired.

The aler t is given by the fixed illumination
of this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal, and depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres,
the symbol or the message appears, according
to equipment, to identify it.


Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering
movements or harsh brake applications.


Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.


In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (according to equipment),
or


if you have a compressor, the one in the
temporary puncture repair kit for example,
check the four tyre pressures when cold,
or


if it is not possible to check the tyre
pressures at the time, drive carefully at
reduced speed.


Operating fault

The flashing and then fixed illumination
of the under-inflation warning lamp
accompanied by the illumination of the
"ser vice" warning lamp indicates a fault
with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is
not assured.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.

The spare wheel is installed in the boot under
the floor.
Depending on version, the spare wheel may be
a standard size steel or alloy wheel, or for some
countries it is the "space saver" type.
For access to the spare wheel, refer to the
paragraph "Access to the tools" on the previous
page.

Access to the spare wheel


Ty r e u n d e r - i nfl ation detection

The spare wheel is not fitted with a
sensor. The punctured wheel must
be repaired by a CITROËN dealer or
aqualified workshop.



Taking out the standard wheel




Unscrew the yellow central bolt.


Raise the spare wheel towards you from
the rear.


Take the wheel out of the boot.

If your vehicle has an electric parking
brake, only a space saver wheel can be
stowed in the boot.

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 exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine per formance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.


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, reduce 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.



If the warning lamp and the STOP

warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.

The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
CITROËN towbar is used.



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 recommended.


Ty r e s




Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, obser ving the
recommended pressures.



Lighting




Check the electrical lighting and signalling
on the trailer.

Refer to the "Technical data" section for
details of the weights and towed loads
which apply to your vehicle.
