Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the 
bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof\
 
bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in 
the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
- 
before a long journey
 ,
-
 
at each change of season,
-
 
after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter
, air filter, 
passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of 
operations recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to 
avoid any overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles   
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to 
a consistent average.

FUEL GAUGE
The fuel level is tested every time the 
ignition is switched on.
If the gauge is positioned on:
- 
f (full):
  the capacity of the fuel tank is 
approximately  45 litres.
-
 
e (empty):
  the reserve is now being 
used, the warning lamp comes on 
continuously.
The low fuel warning first comes on when 
approximately 6 litres of fuel is left.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
- wait approximately 15 minutes to allow  
the engine to cool down in order to check 
the level and top it up if necessary. The 
cooling system is pressurised. In order to 
avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the 
cap by two turns to allow the pressure to 
drop.
When the pressure has dropped, check the 
level and remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red zone, 
contact a CITROËN or a qualified workshop.
EMISSIONS CONTROL
EOBD (European On Board Diagnosis) is a 
diagnostics system which meets the exhaust 
emissions standards for:
-
 
CO (carbon monoxide),
-
 
HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
-
 
NOx (nitrous oxides) or particles detected
  
by oxygen sensors placed upstream and 
downstream of the catalytic converters.
Refer to the "Checks - Levels" section. Refer to the "Checks - Levels" section.
The driver is warned of any 
fault with this emission control 
system by flashing of this specific 
warning lamp in the instrument 
panel.
If the needle enters the red zone, or 
if the warning lamp comes on:
The needle is positioned between c (cold) 
and h (hot): normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic 
conditions, the needle may move close to 
the red graduations.
-
 
stop immediately
, switch off the ignition. 
The cooling fan may continue to operate 
for a certain time up to approximately   
10 minutes.

are on.
Refer to the list of checks in the 
maintenance and warranty guide which 
was given to you on delivery of the 
vehicle.
a
fter a few seconds, the screen returns to its 
usual functions.
Use these controls to adjust the 
brightness of the instrument 
panel and the audio system panel 
lighting.
The screen in the instrument panel informs 
you when the next service is due, in 
accordance with the Manufacturer's servicing 
schedule indicated in the maintenance 
and warranty guide. This information is 
determined in relation to the distance 
travelled since the previous service.
Low engine oil pressure
Oil deterioration (1.3 HDi 75 hp engine only)The warning lamp comes on 
continuously, accompanied by a 
message in the instrument panel 
screen, when the system detects 
that the oil pressure is too low.
The warning lamp flashes, 
accompanied by a message in the 
instrument panel screen, when the 
system detects deterioration of the 
engine oil. The flashing of this warning lamp 
should not be considered as a fault wit the 
vehicle, but rather as an indication to the 
driver that the normal use of the vehicle now 
requires that the oil be changed.
If the oil is not changed, when a 
second level of deterioration is 
reached, the emissions warning 
lamp comes on in the instrument 
panel and the engine speed is restricted to 
3000 rpm. To avoid damaging the engine, it is 
recommended that the oil be changed 
on flashing of the engine oil warning lamp.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so: park, 
switch off the ignition and contact a  
CITROËN  dealer or a qualified workshop. If the oil is still not changed, when a third 
level of deterioration is reached, the engine 
speed is restricted to 1500 rpm, so as to 
avoid any damage.

 39ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER
All of the keys contain an electronic 
immobiliser device.
This device locks the engine supply system. 
It is activated automatically when the key is 
removed from the ignition.
After the ignition is switched on, a dialogue 
is established between the key and the 
electronic immobiliser system.This warning lamp is switched off 
after the ignition is switched on 
and the key has been recognised, 
the engine can be started.
If the key is not recognised, the engine 
cannot be started. Use another key and 
have the faulty key checked by a CITROËN 
dealer.
Good practice
Do not make any modifications to the 
electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even when it 
is in your pocket, may result in involuntary 
unlocking of the doors.
The simultaneous use of other high 
frequency equipment (mobile telephones, 
domestic alarms…), may interfere with the 
operation of the remote control temporarily.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle:
-
 
ensure that you are given the confidential
  
card,
-
 
have the keys memorised by a CITROËN
  
dealer to ensure that the keys in your 
possession are the only ones which can 
start the vehicle.
CONFIDENTIAL CARD
This is given to you on delivery of your 
vehicle with the duplicate keys.
It contains the identification code necessary 
for any work carried out by a CITROËN 
dealer on the electronic immobiliser system. 
This code is hidden by a film, which should 
be removed only if necessary.
k
eep your card in a safe place, never inside 
the vehicle.
When undertaking a long trip or journey, 
however, it is advisable to take it with you 
along with your personal papers. Driving with the doors locked may make 
access to the passenger compartment 
by the emergency services more difficult in an 
emergency.
a
s a safety precaution (with children on 
board), remove the key from the ignition when 
leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.
