The programmable heating sys-tem is started using a long-range remote control. It can be started immediately or programmed to start later.
In the event of a malfunction of the programmable heating sys-tem, contact a CITROËN dealer.the programmable heating sys-programmable heating

Replacing the battery
The remote control is powered by a 6 V-28L battery cell, which is included.
Information appears on the screen when this battery should be replaced.
Unclip the casing and replace the battery.
The remote control must then be re-initialised, as described on this page.
Do not discard old batteries; take them to an approved recycling point.
Re-initialisation of the remote control
Always switch off the program-mable heating while refuelling in order to avoid the risk of fi re or explosion.
To avoid the risk of intoxication or asphyxiation, the program-mable heating should not be used, even for a short time, in an enclosed space such as a garage, or workshop without exhaust gas extraction.
Do not park the vehicle over infl ammable materials (dry grass, dead leaves, papers…), as there is a risk of fi re.
The programmable heating sys-tem is supplied by the vehicle’s fuel tank. Before using it, ensure that there is suffi cient fuel in the tank. If the low fuel warning lamp is on we strongly recommend that you do not programme the heating to come on.
