   Air  bags   
  Disarming  the  passenger  air  bag    Refer to the "MODE" section of chapter  
4, then on the "Passenger air bag" 
menu, select   OFF .   When  
OFF  is selected, the passenger air bag 
will not be triggered in the event of an impact.  
 As soon as the child seat is removed, select  
 
ON   to re-activate the air bag and thus 
ensure the safety of your passenger in the 
event of an impact.     Side  air  bags  and  curtain  air  bags  
 If your vehicle is fitted with side air bags,  
these are incorporated into the front seat 
backs on the door side.  
 The curtain air bags are incorporated into  
the door pillars and the upper part of the 
passenger compartment, in the roof over the 
front cab seats.  
 They inflate between the occupant and the  
glass.  
 They are deployed independently of each  
other depending on which side the collision 
occurs. 
 The air bag warning light on 
the instrument panel comes on 
throughout the period of disarming. 
 To ensure the safety of your child, it is 
essential to disarm the passenger air bag 
when you install a rear-facing child seat on 
the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the 
child would risk being killed or seriously 
injured if the air bag were to inflate.  
 If your vehicle is not fitted with this  
equipment: do not install a rear-facing child 
seat.    Disarming  check  
 This is confirmed by lighting of  
this warning light each time the 
engine is started. 
 If your vehicle is fitted 
with this display, the 
check is accompanied by 
a message.     Operating check  
 Confirmed by this indicator light.

ACCESSORIES
   Towing  a  trailer   
  
Cooling:   towing a trailer on a slope 
increases the coolant temperature.  
 As the fan is electrically controlled, its  
cooling capacity is not dependent on the 
engine speed.  
 On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the  
engine speed and reduce your speed.  
 In all cases, pay attention to the coolant  
temperature.     
Tyres:   check the tyre pressures of the 
towing vehicle (see the "Identification 
features" section of chapter 9) and of 
the trailer, observing the recommended 
pressure.    Towbar  
     We recommend the use of original  
 CITROËN  towbars and their harnesses, 
which have been tested and approved from 
the design stage of your vehicle and that 
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a 
 CITROËN  dealer.  
 If this equipment is not fitted by a  
 CITROËN  dealer, it is imperative that it is 
fitted using the electrical pre-equipment 
installed at the rear of the vehicle and 
in accordance with the manufacturer's 
instructions.  
  Good  practice  
 In certain cases of particularly arduous  
use (towing the maximum load up a steep 
slope in high temperatures), the engine 
automatically limits its power. In this 
case, the automatic cutting off of the air 
conditioning allows the engine power to be 
recovered. 
 If the coolant temperature 
warning light comes on, stop the 
vehicle and switch off the engine 
as soon as possible.   
 See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.    
Brakes:   towing increases the braking 
distance. Drive at a moderate speed, 
change down early and brake gradually.  
  
Side wind:   sensitivity to side wind is 
increased. Drive smoothly and at a  
moderate speed.  
  
ABS:   the system only controls the vehicle, 
not the trailer.  
  
Rear parking assistance:   the assistance 
does not function while the vehicle is towing.

   Levels   
 LEVELS 
 These regular maintenance operations  
will keep your vehicle in good running 
order. Consult the instructions at  CITROËN  
dealerships or in the servicing booklet 
enclosed in the handbook pack.   To maintain the reliability of engines and 
emission control systems, the use of 
additives in engine oil is prohibited.   
  Changing  the  brake  fluid  
 The brake fluid must be changed at  
the intervals stated, according to the 
manufacturer's servicing schedule.  
 Use fluids recommended by the  
manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4 standards.  
 The level must be between the  
MIN  and 
 
MAX   marks on the reservoir. 
 If fluid has to be added frequently, this  
indicates a failure which must be checked by 
a  CITROËN  dealer as soon as possible.  
 If you have to remove/refit the engine 
style cover, handle it with care to avoid 
damaging the fixing clips. 
  Dipstick  
 There are two marks on  
the dipstick:    Oil  change  
 It is imperative that this is carried out at the  
intervals specified and the viscosity grade of 
the oil selected must fulfil the requirements 
in accordance with the manufacturer's 
servicing schedule. Consult the instructions 
at  CITROËN  dealerships.  
 Remove the dipstick before filling. 
 Check the level after filling (never exceed  
the maximum mark).  
 Screw the cap back onto the sump before  
closing the bonnet.   
  Viscosity  selection  
 In all cases, the oil selected must meet the  
manufacturer's requirements.  
  Warning  lights 
 Checking by means of the warning 
lights on the instrument panel is 
described in chapter 2, refer to the 
"Instruments and controls" section.  
  
A   = maximum 
 If you fill past this mark, 
contact a  CITROËN  dealer.  
  
B   = minimum 
 Never allow the level to fall  
below this mark. 
  Oil  level  
 Check the level regularly and top up  
between changes. The maximum 
consumption is 0.5 l per 600 miles 
(1 000 km). Check the level with the vehicle 
level, engine cold, using the dipstick.

   Checks   
 CHECKS 
  Air  filter  and  passenger  
compartment  filter 
 A clogged passenger compartment filter may  
reduce the performance of the air conditioning 
system and generate undesirable odours. The 
replacement intervals for these components 
are indicated in the servicing booklet.  
 Depending on the environment (dusty  
atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle 
(urban driving...), change them twice as often 
if necessary, refer to the "Under the bonnet" 
section of chapter 7.  
  Manual  gearbox  
 Have the level checked in accordance with  
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.   To check the main levels and certain 
components, in accordance with the 
manufacturer's servicing schedule, refer to 
the pages of the servicing booklet which 
correspond to your vehicle's engine.  
 Only use products recommended by  
 CITROËN  or products of equivalent quality 
and characteristics.  
 In order to optimise the operation of units as  
important as the braking circuit,  CITROËN  
selects and offers specific products.  
 In order to avoid damaging the electrical  
units, high pressure washing to clean the 
engine compartment is strictly prohibited. 
  Handbrake  
 Where the handbrake travel is too great  
or there is a reduction in the performance 
of the system, the handbrake should be 
adjusted, even between services.  
 Have the system checked by a  CITROËN   
dealer.  
  Bleeding  the  water  contained  in  the  
diesel  filter   If this warning light comes on,  
bleed the filter, otherwise bleed 
regularly each time the engine is 
drained.   
 To evacuate the water, unscrew the bleed 
screw or the water in diesel sensor, located 
at the base of the filter. Operate until all 
of the water has been drained out. Then 
tighten the bleed screw or the water sensor.   
 HDi engines use advanced technology. All  
work requires a special qualification which is 
guaranteed by a  CITROËN  dealer.   
  Battery  
 At the start of winter, have your battery  
checked by a  CITROËN  dealer.     Brake  pads  
 Brake pad wear depends on the style of  
driving, in particular for vehicles which are 
used in town, over short distances. It may 
be necessary to check the thickness of the 
pads, even between services.  
 Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a drop  
in the brake fluid level indicates that the 
brake pads are worn.   
  Brake  disc/drum  wear  status  
 For any information relating to checking  
the brake disc/drum wear status, contact a 
 CITROËN  dealer.    Oil  filter  
 Change the filter regularly, in accordance  
with the servicing schedule.

   Fuel   
  Low  fuel  level   When the fuel tank level   E  
(Empty) is reached, this warning  
light comes on. At this moment, 
you have   enough fuel left to 
drive approximately 30 miles (50 km)  , 
depending on the driving conditions, the 
engine and the profile of the road. Fill up 
without delay to avoid running out of fuel.   
 T h e   f u e l   t a n k   m u s t   b e   fi   l l e d    
with the engine off.  
   -   Open the fuel filler flap.  
  -   Support the cap with one hand. 
  -   With the other hand, insert the key, then  turn it anticlockwise. 
  -   Remove the cap and hook it onto the  clip located on the inside of the flap.  
 A label affixed to the inside of the flap  
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.  
 When filling the fuel tank, do not continue  
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle. This could 
cause malfunctions.  
 The capacity of the fuel tank is  
approximately   90  litres. 
   -   After filling the fuel tank, lock the cap  and close the flap.   FUEL CIRCUIT DEACTIVATED 
 In the event of a serious collision, a device  
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the 
engine and the vehicle's electrical supply. 
 FILLING WITH FUEL
