Heating and Ventilation
Controls
The incoming air follows various routes depending on the controls selected by the driver, the front passenger and rear passengers. The temperature control enables you to obtain the level of comfort required by mixing the air of the various circuits. The air distribution control enables you to select the air vents used in the passenger compartment by the combined use of the associated buttons. The air flow control enables you to increase or reduce the speed of the ventilation fan. These controls are grouped together on control panel A on the centre console.
1. Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents. 2. Front side quarter light window demisting/defrosting vents. 3. Side adjustable air vents. 4. Central adjustable air vents.
System which creates and maintains good conditions of comfort and visibility in the vehicle's passenger compartment.
5. Air outlets to the driver and front passenger footwells. 6. Adjustable air vents for the rear passengers. 7. Air outlets to the rear footwells.
Air distribution

Dual-zone digital air conditioning
1. Automatic comfort programme
We recommend the use of one of the three AUTO modes available: they provide optimised regulation of the temperature in the passenger compartment according to the comfort value that you have chosen. These three modes automatically control the system, according to the desired setting, while also maintaining the desired comfort value.
 Press the "AUTO" button repeatedly: - a first indicator lamp comes on; the "low" setting mode is selected, - a second indicator lamp comes on; the "medium" setting mode is selected, - a third indicator lamp comes on; the "high" mode setting is selected. Use the "medium" and "high" settings in preference to maintain the comfort level at the r e a r.
When the engine is cold, the air flow will reach its optimum level progressively, taking account of the weather and the desired comfort level so as to avoid too great a distribution of cold air. On entering the vehicle, if the interior temperature is much colder or warmer than the comfort value, there is no need to change the value displayed in order to obtain the comfort required. In all seasons, with the windows closed the system corrects the difference in temperature automatically and as quickly as possible.
This system is designed to operate effectively
in all seasons, with the windows closed.
Automatic operation
The air conditioning can only operate when the hybrid system is active (Ready lamp on). Its effectiveness will be reduced when in electric mode (see the ECO OFF section).

5. Air conditioning On / Off
 Press this button to switch off the air conditioning.
Switching the system off could result in discomfort (humidity, condensation).  Press this button again to return to automatic operation of the air conditioning. The indicator lamp in the "A /C " button comes on. To obtain cool air more quickly, you can use recirculation of the interior air for a few moments. Then revert to the intake of exterior air.
6. Air distribution adjustment
 Press one or more buttons to direct the air flow towards:
- the windscreen and side windows, - the outer and centre air vents, - the footwells. You can combine the three orientations to obtain the desired air distribution.
7. Air fl ow adjustment
 Turn this control to the left to decrease the air flow or to the right to increase the air flow.
The air flow indicator lamps, between the two fans, come on progressively in relation to the value requested.
8. Air intake / Air recirculation
Air recirculation enables the passenger compartment to be isolated from exterior odours and smoke when external pollution is detected (if your vehicle is fitted with a pollution sensor).
It is activated automatically on operation of the screenwash. It is inactive when the ambient temperature is below 5 °C to avoid the risk of misting in the vehicle.
- The indicator lamp with "A" on indicates that recirculation is controlled automatically. - The indicator lamp without "A" on indicates that recirculation is forced manually. - Both indicator lamps off indicates that recirculation is controlled automatically without taking account of the detection of pollution.
Without pollution sensor
If your vehicle is not fitted with a pollution sensor, press this button to force recirculation manually.
In ZEV mode, the hybrid system may temporarily inhibit operation of the air conditioning.
The ZEV mode gives preference to electric driving rather than maintaining a comfortable temperature.

 Switch off the demisting/defrosting of the rear screen and door mirrors as soon as appropriate, as lower current consumption results in reduced fuel consumption.

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's protection in the event of an accident. Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt buckle under the child seat, as this could
destabilise it. Remember to fasten the seat belts or the child seat harnesses keeping the slack relative to the child's body to a minimum, even for short journeys. When installing a child seat using the seat belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened correctly on the child seat and that it secures the child seat firmly on the seat of your vehicle. If your passenger seat is adjustable, move it for wards if necessary. At rear seating positions, always leave sufficient space between the front seat and: - a "rear ward facing" child seat, - the child's feet for a child seat fitted "forward facing". To do this, move the front seat for wards and, if necessary, move its backrest into the upright position.

Advice on child seats
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck. Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt passes correctly over the child's thighs. CITROËN recommends the use of a booster seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt guide at shoulder level. As a safety precaution, do not leave: - a child or children alone and unsupervised in a vehicle, - a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with the windows closed, - the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle. To prevent accidental opening of the doors and rear windows, use the "Child lock". Take care not to open the rear windows by more than one third. To protect young children from the rays of the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
The legislation on carrying children on the front passenger seat is specific to each country. Refer to the legislation in force in your country. Deactivate the passenger airbag when a "rear ward-facing" child seat is installed on the front seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if the airbag were to inflate.
Children at the front
For optimum installation of the "forward-facing" child seat, ensure that the back of the child seat is as close as possible to the backrest of the vehicle's seat , in contact if possible.
You mst remove the head restraint before installing a child seat with backrest to a passenger seat. Ensure that the head restraint is stored or attached securely to prevent it from being thrown around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking. Refit the head restraint when the child seat is removed.

Lateral airbags
Deployment
The lateral airbags are deployed unilaterally in the event of a serious side impact applied to all or part of the side impact zone B , perpendicular to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed from the outside towards the inside of the vehicle. The lateral airbag inflates between the hip and shoulder of the front occupant of the vehicle and the corresponding door trim panel.
System which protects the driver and front passenger in the event of a serious side impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the chest, between the hip and the shoulder. Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest frame, door side.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone. B. Side impact zone.
Curtain airbags
System which protects the driver and passengers (with the exception of the rear centre passenger) in the event of a serious side impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the side of the head. Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and the upper passenger compartment area.
In the event of a minor impact or bump on the side of the vehicle or if the vehicle rolls over, the airbag may not be deployed. In the event of a rear or front collision, the curtain airbag is not deployed.
Deployment
The curtain airbag is deployed at the same time as the corresponding lateral airbag in the event of a serious side impact applied to all or part of the side impact zone B , perpendicular to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed from the outside towards the inside of the vehicle. The curtain airbag inflates between the front or rear occupant of the vehicle and the windows.
