ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
The incorrect installation of a
child seat in a vehicle compromises
the child’s protection in the event of an
accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or
the child seat harnesses keeping the
slack in relation to the child’s body to a
minimum, even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the “for-
ward facing” child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is in contact
with the back of the vehicle’s seat and
that the head restraint does not cause
any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be re-
moved, ensure that it is stored or at-
tached securely to prevent it from be-
ing thrown around the vehicle in the
event of sharp braking.
Children under the age of 10 must not
travel in the “forward facing” position
on the front passenger seat, unless
the rear seats are already occupied by
other children, cannot be used or are
absent.
Disarm the passenger air bag when
a “rear facing” child seat is installed
on the front seat. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the air bag were to infl ate. 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, fi t-
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and un-
supervised 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, use the “Child lock”.
Take care not to open the rear win-
dows by more than one third.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, fi t side blinds on the
rear windows.

Side air bags
System which protects the driver and
passenger in the event of a serious side
impact in order to limit the risk of injury
to the chest.
Each side air bag is incorporated in
the front seat back frame, on the door
side.
Activation
The side air bag is triggered unilaterally
in the event of a serious side impact
applied to all or part of the side impact
zone B , perpendicular to the longitudi-
nal centreline of the vehicle on a hori-
zontal plane and directed from the out-
side towards the inside of the vehicle.
The side air bag infl ates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim pad. Curtain air bags
System which protects the driver and
passengers (with the exception of the
rear centre passenger and the passen-
gers of row 3) in the event of a serious
side impact in order to limit the risk of
injury to the head.
Each curtain air bag is incorporated in
the pillars and the upper section of the
passenger compartment. Activation
The curtain air bag is triggered at the
same time as the corresponding side
air bag 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 air bag infl ates between the
front or rear occupant of the vehicle and
the windows.
In the event of a minor impact
or bump on the side of the ve-
hicle or if the vehicle rolls over,
the air bag may not be triggered.
In the event of a rear or front colli-
sion, the air bag is not triggered.

while the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries
without disconnecting the
terminals fi rst. Following reconnection of the
battery
Following reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute
before starting to permit initialisation of
the electronic systems. However, if slight
diffi culties are encountered following this
operation, contact a CITROËN dealer.
Referring to the corresponding section,
you must yourself reinitialise:
- the one-touch electric windows,
- the sunroof,
- the satellite navigation system.
Avoid prolonged contact of the
electrolyte with the skin.
Most of these fl uids are harmful
to health and very corrosive. It is advisable to disconnect the
battery if the vehicle is to be left
unused for more than one month.
The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric acid
and lead. They must be disposed of
in accordance with regulations and
must not, in any circumstances, be
discarded with household waste.
Take used remote control batteries
and vehicle batteries to a special
collection point.
When charging the battery, it is
normal to observe an increase in
temperature and bubbling of the
electrolyte.

NAVIGATION-GUIDANCE
What is the navigation system and
the GPS?
The satellite navigation system guides
the driver to the destination that he has
set in accordance with a chosen route.
Initially, it searches for the destination
required by the user, then it calculates
the route and fi nally it provides the visual
and audible guidance instructions. What precautions should be
observed in order to use the system
under good conditions?
Do not place anything on or near the
GPS aerial.
Do not use any digital communication
equipment (personal computers, etc.)
near the GPS aerial.
Do not affi x any refl ective fi lms or fi lms
containing carbon to the window.
The GPS (Global Positioning
System) consists of several
satellites distributed around
the earth. They continuously
transmit digital signals
which travel at the speed of light, on 2
different frequencies.
At any given time, the system receives
its position in relation to the satellites
detected and the time of transmission
of the signal.
This enables the telematic unit to
deduce its position and therefore that of
the vehicle.
A repositioning process using the
map database stored on the hard disc
permits repositioning of the vehicle’s
position on the road network in order
to improve the accuracy of the locating
function. What is a point of interest (POI)?
Up to 40 different icons may
be displayed (refer to the
section “Points of interest
icon”).
They are classifi ed in
5 groups and identifi ed by one colour
for each group:
- Shops, fi nance and businesses (Green),
- Vehicles and travel (Dark blue),
- Restaurants (Orange),
- Public places and emergency services (Brown),
- Entertainment and attractions (Blue).
GPS
The system’s measurements may be
inaccurate if the vehicle is:
- in a tunnel or underground car park,
- underneath a two-level motorway,
- in an area with several very high buildings,
- surrounded by closely planted trees.
Depending on the vehicle’s situation and
the reception of the GPS information, the
displayed information may disappear
from the display temporarily. A point of interest (POI) is
represented by an icon on
the map, it represents an
airport, a station, a town
hall, etc.

General notes on MP3/WMA CDs
Playing an MP3/WMA CD When the MP3/WMA CD is
inserted in the player, play-
ing of the tracks is automat-
ic.
The tracks cannot be recorded
onto the music server.
You can play up to 8 levels,
255 folders and 400 fi les
maximum.
Copyright
Your Audio equipment may allow you to
listen to music which is usually protected
by copyright in accordance with current
national and international standards.
Please consult these standards and
comply with them.
Acceptance of the fi les
Some burned CDs may not be played
by your equipment (quality, recording
speed ...).
When you burn a CD-R or CD-RW,
select the ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet
burning standard.
To obtain the best acoustic quality
possible, select the lowest burning
speed.
The MPEG1 and MPEG2 standards
are accepted.
Transmission speeds between 32 and
320 kbits/s and scans between 16 kHz
and 48 kHz are accepted.
To display the title information (the
name of the artist, the title of the album,
etc.), the information contained in the
ID3 Tags or the WMA Tags must be
included in the MP3/WMA fi les burned
onto the disc.
What is the MP3/WMA fi le format?
MP3 is the abbreviation of MPEG-1
Audio Layer 3 and MPG is the
abbreviation of Motion Pictures Experts
Group, a digital video data compression
standard used on media such as video
CDs.
The MP3 compression reduces the
number of bytes in a song by eliminating
the long sound waves in the range of
frequencies which are imperceptible
to the human ear, so producing high
quality audio fi les with a low volume of
data.
This compression divides the size of
the content of a conventional audio
CD by approximately 10, which means
that the content of 10 audio CDs can
be recorded onto a single CD-R or
CD-RW.
WMA is the abbreviation of Windows
Media Audio, another audio data
compression standard offered by
Microsoft.
It can be used to create and save audio
fi les at a compression rate higher than
that of the MP3 format.
