CRUISE CONTROL "CRUISE"
In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be greater
than 25 mph (40 km/h) with at least 4th gear
engaged. Function selected,
displaying of the "Cruise
Control" symbol.
Function deactivated,

(example at 107 km/h).
Vehicle speed above
(e.g. 118 km/h),
the programmed speed
is displayed flashing.
Operating fault detected,
OFF - the dashes flash.
This cruise control shows the function
selection status on the instrument panel and
displays the programmed speed:
"This is the speed at which the driver wishes
to drive".
This aid to driving in free-flowing traffic
enables the vehicle to maintain the speed
programmed by the driver, unless a steep
gradient makes this impossible.

SPEED LIMITER "LIMIT"
However, pressing the pedal beyond this
point of resistance to the floor permits
exceeding of the programmed speed. To
resume use of the limiter, simply reduce
the pressure on the accelerator pedal
gradually and return to a speed below that
programmed. Function selected,
displaying of the "Speed
Limiter" symbol.

Vehicle speed above
(example 70 mph

the programmed speed
is displayed flashing.
Operating fault detected,
OFF - the dashes flash.
This speed limiter shows the function
selection status on the instrument panel and
displays the programmed speed:
The operating actions may be carried out
when stationary, with the engine running,
or with the vehicle moving.
"This is the selected speed which the driver
does not wish to exceed".
This selection is made with the engine
running while stationary or with the vehicle
moving. The minimum speed which can be
programmed is 20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed of the vehicle responds to the
pressure of the driver's foot as far as the
accelerator pedal point of resistance which
indicates that the programmed speed has
been reached.

Air bags
SAFETY

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. Front air bag fault
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.
If the two air bag warning lights are lit
continuously, do not install a rear-facing
child seat. Consult a CITROËN dealer.

Air bags
Side air bags
If fitted on your vehicle, this is a system
which protects the driver and front
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. Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone. If this warning light comes
on on the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the display,
contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked. The air bags may no longer
be triggered in the event of a serious impact.
Activation
It 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 longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane and directed from the
outside towards the inside of the vehicle.
The side air bag inflates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim pad.
Curtain air bags
This is a system which protects the driver
and passengers (with the exception of the
centre seats of rows 2 and 3) in the event of
a serious side impact in order to limit the risk
of head injuries.
Each curtain air bag is incorporated in the
pillars and the upper part of the passenger
compartment.
Activation
It 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 inflates 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 vehicle or if the
vehicle rolls over, the air bag may not be
triggered.
The air bag is not triggered in the event of a
rear or front collision. Operating fault

LEVELS
To maintain the reliability of engines and
emission control systems, the use of
additives in engine oil is prohibited. Changing the brake fluid
The brake fluid must be changed at
the intervals stated, according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use fluids recommended by the
manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4 standards.
The level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks on the reservoir.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a failure which must be checked by
a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
These regular maintenance operations
will keep your vehicle in good running
order. Consult the instructions at CITROËN
dealerships or in the servicing booklet
enclosed in the handbook pack.
If you have to remove/refit the engine
style cover, handle it with care to avoid
damaging the fixing clips.
Check the level regularly and top up
between changes.
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the dipstick. Dipstick
There are two marks on the
dipstick:
A = maximum
If you fill past this mark,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
B = minimum
Never allow the level to fall
below this mark. Oil change
It is imperative that this is carried out at the
intervals specified and the viscosity grade of
the oil selected must fulfil the requirements
in accordance with the manufacturer's
servicing schedule. Consult the instructions
at CITROËN dealerships.
Remove the dipstick before filling.
For the 2 litre HDi engine, use the funnel
supplied when filling via the sump opening.
Check the level after filling (never exceed
the max mark).
Screw the cap back onto the sump before
closing the bonnet.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet the
manufacturer's requirements.
Warning lights
Checking by means of the warning
lights on the instrument panel
is described in chapter 2, refer to the
"Instruments and controls" section.
