Your vehicle has a loor mat which
covers the entire space in front
of the driver and front passenger
seats.
Note :
this loor mat also covers
the lap that gives access to the
battery on the right hand side (see
“Battery”).
The loor mat is held in position on
each side by a ixing, in the middle
by the centre console pillar. F L O O R M A T
Floor mats that are not recommended by CITROËN run the ri sk
of sliding underneath the accelerator pedal, thus preven ting you
from using the full pedal travel (see “Speed limiter”).
It will then be impossible to exit from your programmed speed
without recourse to the switch module under the steering w heel.

- Slide the front seats as far as possible rearwards.
- Detach the ixings one by one, pulling on the corresponding
corner of the
loor mat.

Reitting
- Position the loor mat correctly.
- Press the ixings back in place one by one.
- Check that the loor mat is properly secured.
Note : loor mats for the rear of the vehicle are available as accessories.
To obtain them, contact a CITROËN dealer.
