FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM
WITH ELECTRONIC CONTROL
4WD AUTO (position 1)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive and provides optimum traction re-
gardless of the level of grip.
This is the vehicle's normal and regular
operating mode, the distribution of the
torque between the front and rear axles
is controlled automatically.
The distribution favours the front wheels,
the transfer of torque to the rear wheels
is managed electronically by the control
unit in relation to the level of grip, so
guaranteeing optimum road holding.
Three transmission modes are avail-
able and can be selected manually
by the driver in accordance with his
requirements.
You can change transmission mode
when stationary or while driving at a
speed below 60 mph (100 km/h) .
The transmission mode can be selected
by turning the control A .
Display on the instrument panel
The transmission mode is displayed in
the form of an intermittent display on
the instrument panel screen when the
transmission mode is selected.
Selecting the transmission mode
The selection of this mode is recom-
mended when the level of grip permits.
2WD (position 3)
The vehicle operates with front two
wheel drive.
This mode corresponds to use on a
tarmacked road on which the driver
considers that there is no risk of loss of
grip (dry road).
4WD LOCK (position 2)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive in this mode also.
It is recommended when grip is particularly
p o o r o r d i f fi c u l t ( s a n d , m u d , s l o p e s , . . . ) .
System which permits the selection of
a transmission mode in relation to the
driving conditions.

Operating faults
If the selected transmission mode dis-
p l a y fl a s h e s , t h e v e h i c l e s w i t c h e s a u t o -
matically to front "2WD" transmission
mode.
It is then no longer possible to select the
transmission mode using the control A . Do not subject the vehicle to exces-
sive conditions while driving.
As the engine torque is applied to
all four wheels, the condition of the
tyres has a considerable impact on
the performance of the vehicle.
Ensure that all four tyres are in good
condition.
Avoid driving the vehicle in sandy
or muddy areas or in other areas in
which the wheels could spin.
Spinning the wheels places the
transmission components under
pressure and could cause a serious
malfunction.
Do not drive the vehicle through
deep water.
Avoid driving over excessively un-
even terrain (risk of scraping under
the body or of grounding on crossing
a bridge).
Have your vehicle towed on a
fl a t b e d .
The vehicle must not be towed with
the front or rear wheels on the ground even if it is in front "2WD" (2 wheel
drive) mode.
If the message "SLOW DOWN" is dis-
played on the instrument panel, let the
transmission cool down then wait for the
display to clear before setting off again.
If "4WD" and "LOCK" are displayed
alternately and if "MAINTENANCE
REQUIRED" is displayed on the instru-
ment panel, the system has failed and
the safety system has been activated.
Contact a CITROËN dealer without delay.

Matching your Bluetooth®
telephone
The system can register up to 7 Bluetooth®
compatible mobile telephones.
The telephone which has the highest
level of priority is connected automati-
cally.
It is absolutely essential that the vehicle
is parked in a safe place with the park-
ing brake applied.
1 - Press the SPEAK button.
7 - Say a 4-digit number which will be recorded as the match-
ing code. 11 - When it detects a Bluetooth
®
compatible mobile telephone,
the system says "Please say
the name of the telephone
after the bleep". If the system does not detect the
Bluetooth
®
compatible mobile tele-
phone, the matching process stops
accompanied by an audible signal.
If you select a level of priority which
has already been allocated to an-
other telephone, the system asks
you if you wish to replace this level
of priority.
Remember this matching code as
you must enter it in the telephone
in one of the following steps of the
matching procedure.
9 - The system says "Start the matching procedure on the telephone. Con-
sult the instructions in the telephone
manual".
2 - S a y " C o n fi g u r e " .
3 - Say "Matching options".
5 - Say "Match a telephone". 8 - T h e s y s t e m c o n fi r m s t h e v a -
lidity of the number spoken,
answer "Yes". Say "No" to re-
turn to step 7.
10 - Consult your mobile tele- phone's user manual and
enter the matching code
recorded in step 7 in the
telephone. 12 - After the audible signal, allo-
cate a name to the telephone
by saying the name of your
choice.
13 - The system says "Allocate an order of priority between 1 and 7. One is
the highest level of priority".
14 - Say a number between 1 and 7 to establish the level
of priority of the mobile tele-
phone.
1 5 - T h e s y s t e m s a y s a n d c o n fi r m s t h e
4 - The system says "Do you wish to match a telephone, delete a tele-
phone or obtain the list of matched
telephones?".
6 - The systems says "Please say the 4 digits of a matching code". If the code is incorrect, the system
locks. To clear the code:
- check that the telephone's voice
recognition is not activated,
- with the ignition on and the audio system active, press the HANG UP
button for 2 seconds, 3 times in
succession. 16 - Answer "Yes" or say "No" to
return to step 13.
17 - The systems says "Matching complete" then emits an audible
signal and deactivates the voice
recognition.
