Starting using another
battery

 Lift the pins to remove the front left
headlamp cover (V6 HDi engine).

 Connect the red cable to the
positive terminal (+) of the fl at
battery A , then to the positive
terminal (+) of the slave battery B .

 Connect one end of the green or
black cable to the negative ter-
minal (-) of the slave battery B .
V6 HDi engine: the positive ter- minal (-) is located under the red
cover.


Connect the other end of the green
or black cable to the earth point C
on the broken down vehicle.

 Operate the starter, let the engine run.

 Wait until the engine returns to
idle and disconnect the cables. Charging the battery using a
battery charger
The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric
acid and lead. They must be
disposed of in accordance with
regulations and must not, in any
circumstances, be discarded with
household waste.
Take used remote control batteries
and vehicle batteries to an autho-
rised collection point.
It is advisable to disconnect the
battery if the vehicle is to be left un-
used for more than one month. Do not disconnect the ter-
minals while the engine is
running.
Do not charge the batteries without
disconnecting the terminals fi rst.
Do not touch the clips during the
operation.
Do not lean over the batteries.
Disconnect the cables in the re-
verse order to connection, ensuring
that they do not touch.
Before disconnecting the battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off
the ignition before disconnecting
the battery.
Close the windows and the doors
before disconnecting the battery.
Following reconnection of the
battery
Following reconnection of the bat-
tery, switch on the ignition and wait
1 minute before starting to permit
initialisation of the electronic sys-
tems. However, if slight malfunctions
remain following this operation, con-
tact a CITROËN dealer. Referring to the corresponding sec-
tion, you must yourself reinitialise:
- the remote control key,
- the glass panoramic roof blind,
- the GPS satellite navigation system.

 Disconnect the battery from the
vehicle.

 Follow the instructions for use
provided by the manufacturer of
the charger.

 Reconnect starting with the nega-
tive terminal (-).

 Check that the terminals and
connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (whitish or
greenish deposit), remove them
and clean them.
The Stop & Start battery does not
have to be disconnected for charging.

ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration
of use of certain functions to con-
serve a suffi cient level of charge in
the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio
and telematics system, windscreen
wipers, dipped headlamps, courtesy
lights, etc. for a maximum combined
duration of thirty minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once the thirty minutes are over, a
message appears on the multi-function
screen indicating that the vehicle has
switched to economy mode and the
active functions are put on standby.
If the telephone is being used at this
time:
- it will be maintained for 5 minutes with radio-CD hands-free kit,
-
it will be interrupted after 10 minutes
with the MyWay audio-navigation
system,
- you can complete your call with the NaviDrive system.
This period may be signifi cantly re-
duced if the battery charge is low. Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated auto-matically next time the vehicle is
driven.

 In order to resume the use of
these functions immediately,
start the engine and let it run for
a few minutes.
The time available will then be dou-
ble the duration for which the en-
gine was left running. However, this
time will always be between fi ve and
thirty minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the en-
gine from starting (refer to the
corresponding paragraph).

TOWING A TRAILER, A CARAVAN, ETC.
Towbar suitable for the attachment
of a trailer or caravan with additional
lighting and signalling.
Your vehicle is primarily designed
for transporting people and luggage,
but it may also be used for towing a
trailer.
We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage
of your vehicle, and that the fi t-
ting of the towbar is entrusted to a
CITROËN dealer. If the trailer is not fi tted by a
CITROËN dealer, it is impera-
tive that it is fi tted using the
vehicle's electrical pre-equipment,
in accordance with the manufactur-
er's instructions.
Driving with a trailer subjects the
towing vehicle to more signifi cant
stress and the driver must take
particular care.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads

 Distribute the load in the trailer
so that the heaviest items are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without ex-
ceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude,
thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10 %
for every 1 000 metres of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section
for details of the weights and towed
loads which apply to your vehicle.
Side wind

 Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind. Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled,
its cooling capacity is not dependent
on the engine speed.

 To lower the engine speed, re-
duce your speed.
The maximum towed load on a long
incline depends on the gradient and
the ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the
coolant temperature.

 If the warning lamp and
the STOP warning lamp
come on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the brak-
ing distance.
Tyres

 Check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended
pressures.
Lighting

 Check the electrical lighting and
signalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a gen-
uine CITROËN towbar is used.

VERY COLD PROTECTION *
Adjustable device which prevents
the intake of snow particles, which
could obstruct the air fi lter.
HDi Diesel 160 PEF engine
Normal position
The fl ap 2 is in a horizontal position
in the air duct 3 . Snow position

 Push and rotate the knob 1 by
90 ° in the direction of the arrow
in order to position the fl ap 2 in a
vertical position in the air duct 3 .
To return to the normal position,
push the knob 1 then rotate in the
opposite direction.
It is essential to remove the very cold protectio n:

- When the ambient temperature exceeds
10 °C.

- When driving at speeds of over 75 mph
(approximately 120 km/h).
