ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS - EBFD)
The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake force
distribution) systems improve the stability
and manoeuvrability of your vehicle on
braking, in particular on poor or slippery
surfaces.
The ABS prevents locking of the wheels,
the EBFD provides control of the braking
pressure wheel by wheel. Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock. It does not reduce the braking
distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil, etc...)
the ABS may increase the braking distance.
When braking in an emergency, do not
hesitate to press the brake pedal firmly,
without releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able to
continue to manoeuvre the vehicle to avoid
an obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be felt by
slight vibration of the brake pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are recommended by
CITROËN .
If this warning light comes on,
together with the brake and STOP
warning lights, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message
on the display, it indicates a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution which
could result in a loss of control of the vehicle
on braking.

Stop immediately.
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables the
optimum braking pressure to be reached more
quickly, press the pedal fi rmly without releasing i t.
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake
pedal is activated.
This alters the resistance of the brake pedal
under your foot.
If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the display,
it indicates a malfunction of the
ABS which could result in a loss of control of
the vehicle on braking. In both cases, contact a CITROËN dealer.
To prolong the operation of the emergency
braking assistance system: keep your foot on the
brake pedal.

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR) AND DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESP)
These systems are linked and complement
the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and avoiding
losses of control of the vehicle on
acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent the
wheels skidding, by acting on the brakes of
the drive wheels and on the engine. It also
allows the directional stability of the vehicle
to be improved on acceleration. acts on the engine and the brake of one
or more wheels, in order to put the vehicle
back on course.
Disarming the ASR/ESP systems
In certain exceptional conditions (starting
the vehicle when stuck in mud or snow, or
on loose ground...), it could prove useful to
disarm the ASR and ESP systems to make
the wheels spin and regain grip.
- Press the button, located on the centre
console.
- The indicator light comes on: the ASR and ESP systems no longer act. Operating check
Good practice
The ASR/ESP systems offer increased
safety during normal driving, but should not
incite the driver to take risks or to drive at
high speed.
The operation of these systems is ensured
if the recommendations of the manufacturer
regarding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components, the electronic
components and the fitting and repair
procedures within the CITROËN network are
observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Use the ESP to hold your course without
attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the trajectory
followed by the vehicle and that required
by the driver, the ESP system automatically Operation of the ASR and ESP
systems
The luminous diode flashes when
the ASR or ESP is triggered.
They engage again:
- automatically above 30 mph (50 km/h),
- manually by pressing the button again. When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the indicator light
comes on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message on
the display.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked.
The warning light may also come on if the
tyres are under-inflated. Check the pressure
of each tyre.

Seat belts
Height adjustment
Squeeze the control with the return and slide
the assembly on the driver ’s seat side and
on the individual passenger seat side.
If your vehicle is fitted with a front bench,
the height of the seat belt associated with
the centre seat cannot be adjusted. Unfastening
Press the red button.
SEAT BELTS
CORRECT USE OF THE SEAT BELTS
The driver must ensure that passengers use
the seat belts correctly and that they are all
strapped in securely before moving off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel
which automatically adjusts the length of the
strap to your size. The seat belt is rolled up
automatically when not in use.
Ensure that the seat belt is rolled up
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
rolled up correctly and that the buckle is
ready to accommodate the tongue.
Depending on the nature and seriousness
of any impact, the pretensioning device may
be triggered before and independently of
inflation of the air bags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Triggering of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
Fastening
Pull the strap, then insert the tongue into the
buckle.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap. Driver ’s seat belt not fastened warning
light
Passenger seat belt not fastened warning
light
When the vehicle is started, this
warning light comes on if the
driver has not fastened his seat
belt.
If your vehicle is fitted with a front
passenger seat, when the vehicle
is started, this warning light
comes on if the passenger has not
fastened his seat belt.

Seat belts
SAFETY
5
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is switched on.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in the
event of a collision or emergency braking or
if the vehicle rolls over.
You can unfasten the seat belt by pressing
the red button on the buckle. Guide the seat
belt after unfastening.
The air bag warning light comes on if the
pretensioners are triggered. Consult a
CITROËN dealer.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
- restrain one person only,
- must not be twisted, check by pulling in front of you with an even movement,
- be tightened as close to the body as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should be
positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low as
possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they
will not fulfil their role completely. If the
seats are fitted with armrests, the lap part of
the seat belt should always pass under the
armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap firmly. Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one metre fifty,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap, even with the seat belt fastened.
For further information regarding child
seats, refer to the "Children on board"
section of chapter 5.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your CITROËN dealer
guarantees all work or any checks, from
testing to maintenance, on your seat belt
equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly
(even after a minor impact) by a CITROËN
dealer: they must not show any signs of
wear, cutting or fraying and they must not be
transformed or modified.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by CITROËN dealers. With front air bags
The front seats are fitted with pretensioners
and force limiters.
Without front air bag
If your vehicle is fitted with a front bench
without front air bag, the centre passenger ’s
seat belt does not have a pretensioner.
With bench seat
If your vehicle is fitted with a front bench
seat, take care to fasten the correct seat belt
using the correct buckle. Do not invert the
driver ’s seat belt or buckle with the buckle or
seat belt of the centre seat.

Air bags
SAFETY
5
The air bags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants in the
event of a serious collision; they work in
conjunction with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse the
front and side impacts suffered in the impact
detection zones:
- in the event of a serious impact, the air bags inflate instantly and protect the
occupants of the vehicle. Immediately
after the impact, the air bags deflate
rapidly, so that they do not hinder the
visibility of the occupants nor their
possible exit from the vehicle. - in the event of a minor or rear impact
and in certain roll-over conditions,
the air bags will not be deployed; the
seat belt alone is sufficient to provide
maximum protection in these situations.
The seriousness of the collision depends on
the nature of the obstacle and the speed of
the vehicle at the moment of impact. It is imperative that the passenger
air bag is disarmed if a child seat is
installed facing rearwards. Refer to the
"Children on board" section of chapter 5.
Air bags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
AIR BAGS
This equipment only operates once. If a
second impact occurs (during the same or
a subsequent accident), the air bag will not
operate.
The triggering of an air bag or air bags
is accompanied by a slight discharge of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result in a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.

134
Air bags Disarming
The passenger ’s front air bag alone can be
disarmed:
- With the ignition switched off, insert
the key into the passenger air bag
disarming switch,
- turn it to the "OFF" position,
- then remove the key keeping the slot in this position.
Front air bags
The front air bags are incorporated in the
centre of the steering wheel for the driver
and in the fascia for the front passenger.
Reactivation
In the
"OFF" position, the passenger air
bag will not be triggered in the event of an
impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed, turn
the air bag slot to the "ON" position to
re-activate the air bag and thus ensure the
safety of your passenger in the event of an
impact. 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.
The air bag warning light on the
instrument panel is lit throughout
the period of disarming.
Activation
They are deployed simultaneously, unless
the passenger ’s front air bag has been
disarmed, in the event of a serious front
impact applied to all or part of the front
impact zone
A in the longitudinal centreline
of the vehicle on a horizontal plane directed
from the front towards the rear of the
vehicle.
The front air bag inflates between the front
occupant of the vehicle and the fascia to
cushion his forward movement. If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the display,
contact a CITROËN dealer to
have the system checked.
Front air bag fault
If the two air bag warning lights are lit
continuously, do not install a
rear-facing child seat. Consult a CITROËN
dealer.
