ERGONOMICS AND COMFORT
MIRRORS AND WINDOWS
MIRRORS Exterior mirrors
These are divided into two zones:

A - Upper mirror

B - Lower mirror
The mirror glass is spherical in order to
widen the lateral field of vision. Objects
seen in the mirror are in reality closer than
they appear. Therefore, this must be taken
into account in order to assess the distance
correctly.
The shell incorporates the direction indicator
side repeater and the aerials, according to
the equipment available on board (GPS,
GSM, Radio, ...). Electrical controls
Turn the control to select the mirror zone.

1 Driver ’s mirror:

A1 - Upper mirror

B1 - Lower mirror
Then move the control in the direction of the
adjustment required.

2 Passenger mirror:

A2 - Upper mirror

B2 - Lower mirror
Then move the control in the direction of the
adjustment required.
Interior mirror
The lever located on the lower edge moves
the mirror into two positions.
For the day position, the lever is pushed.
For the night position to prevent dazzle, pull
the lever towards you.
Electric folding
Press this control.
De-icing of the mirrors

Driving safety
DRIVING SAFETY
HANDBRAKE HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS
Press this button, the direction indicators
flash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
The hazard warning lights should only be
used in dangerous situations, when stopping
in an emergency or when driving in unusual
conditions.
Applying
Pull the handbrake to immobilise your vehicle.
Check that the handbrake is applied firmly
before leaving the vehicle.
If the handbrake is still on or has
not been released properly, this is
indicated by this warning light which
comes on on the instrument panel.
When parking on a slope, direct
your wheels towards the pavement and pull
the handbrake.
There is no advantage in engaging a gear
after parking the vehicle, particularly if the
vehicle is loaded. Releasing
Pull the handle and press the button to lower

Towing a trailer
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...
For more information about weights,
refer to the administrative documents
(V5 registration document, ...)
Distribution of loads: distribute the load in
the trailer so that the heaviest objects are as
close as possible to the axle and the nose
weight is close to the maximum authorised
without, however, exceeding it. Driving advice
A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral.

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.

To install the transverse roof bars, use the
fixings provided for this purpose. Refer to the "Dimensions" section
of chapter 9 for further information
regarding the length (L1 to L4) and the
height (H1 to H3) of the vehicle.
Never exceed the maximum weight of the
vehicle when loaded (GVW).
Maximum useful load on the roof bars: 100 kg
distributed, regardless of the type of vehicle.
The roof bars can only be installed on the
H1 and H2 vehicles.

tested and approved for reliability and
safety, are all adapted to your RELAY.

Equipment

On the inside
This operation must only be carried out with
the vehicle stationary and the driver ’s door
open.
Pull the lever on the side of the fascia panel
towards you.
On the outside
Push the lever located above the grille to the

Opening the bonnet

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.
