speed
Press on button 2 or 4 once the
desired speed has been reached.
The information "OFF" will then
disappear from the instrument
panel display.
Overriding the programmed
speed
During the operation of cruise con-
trol, it is always possible to use the
accelerator to go faster than the
cruise speed (for example to over-

CHECKS
Unless otherwise indicated, check
these components in accordance
with the Maintenance and Warranty
Guide and according to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
Battery The battery does not re-
quire any maintenance.
However, check that the
terminals are clean and
correctly tightened, partic-
ularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the bat-
tery, refer to the "Practical infor-
mation" section for details of the
precautions to be taken before dis-
connecting the battery and following
its reconnection. Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Refer to the Maintenance
and Warranty Guide for
details of the replacement
intervals for these compo-
nents.
Depending on the environment (e.g.
dusty atmosphere) and the use of
the vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace
them twice as often if necessary
(refer to the "Engines" section).

contribution to the preservation of air
quality by the retaining of the unburnt
pollutant particles. Black exhaust
fumes are thus no longer emitted.
After prolonged idling or driving at very
low speeds, you may occasionally no-
tice water vapour being emitted from
the exhaust when accelerating. This is
of no consequence to the running of
the vehicle or to the environment.
If there is risk of clogging, a mes-
sage appears on the multifunction
screen, accompanied by an audi-
ble signal and lighting of the service
warning lamp.
This alert tells you that the particle

The GTW and towed load values indicated apply up to a maximum altitude of 1,000 metres; the towed load mentioned
must be reduced by 10 % for each additional 1,000 metres of a ltitude.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 100 km/h (appro x. 60 mph) (comply with the legislation in force in your
country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the pe rformance of the vehicle in order to protect the engine; when
the ambient temperature is higher than 37 °C, limit the we ight towed.
* The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, on condition that the GVW of the towing vehicle is reduced
by the same amount; warning, towing with a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.
