System which automatically and continuously checks the pressure of the tyres while driving. Sensors fitted in each valve trigger a warning in the event of problem (speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).
Puncture
The tyre under-inflation detection system is an aid to driving which does not replace the need for the driver to be vigilant or to drive responsibly.
U n d e r - i n fl a t e d t y r e
This warning lamp is displayed on the instrument panel and/or a message appears in the screen, accompanied by an audible
signal, to identify the wheel concerned.
The STOP warning lamp comes on and/or this warning lamp is displayed on the instrument panel, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message in the screen identifying the wheel concerned.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so, avoiding any sudden movement of the steering wheel and the brakes. Repair or change the damaged wheel (punctured or very deflated tyre), and have the tyre pressure checked as soon as possible.
Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible. This check must be carried out when the tyres are cold.

Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
A message appears in the screen, accompanied by an audible signal, to identify the wheel or wheels which are not detected or
to indicate a fault in the system. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).
All repairs and changing of tyres on a wheel fitted with this system must be carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install a wheel which is not detected by your vehicle (example: fitting of snow tyres), you must have the system reinitialised by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
This system does not avoid the need to have the tyre pressures checked regularly (refer to the "Identification markings" section) to ensure that
the optimum dynamic per formance of the vehicle is maintained and prevent premature wear of the tyres, par ticularly in arduous driving conditions (heavy load, high speed). The tyre pressures must be checked cold, at least once a month. Remember to check the pressure of the spare wheel. The tyre under-inflation detection system may experience temporary inter ference due to electro-magnetic emissions on a frequency close to that used by the system.
This message is also displayed when one of the wheels is away from the vehicle (being repaired) or when one or more wheels without a sensor are fitted. If your vehicle is equipped with a spare
wheel, this is not fitted with a sensor.

Seat belt unfastened warning lamp
This warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel when one or more rear passengers unfasten their seat belt. From approximately 12 mph (20 km/h), this warning lamp flashes for two minutes accompanied by an audible signal of increasing volume. Once these two minutes have elapsed, this warning lamp remains on until the one or
more rear passengers fasten their seat belt.
Seat belt unfastened warning lamps display

Deactivation
Only the passenger's front airbag can be deactivated: with the ignition off , inser t the key in the n offpassenger airbag deactivation switch, turn it to the "OFF" position, then, remove the key keeping the switch in the new position.
According to version, this warning lamp comes on either in the instrument panel or in the seat belt and passenger's front airbag warning lamps display when the ignition is on and until the airbag is reactivated.
To assure the safety of your child, the passenger's front airbag must be deactivated when you install a "rear facing" child seat on the front
passenger seat. Other wise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if the airbag were deployed.
Reactivation
When you remove the child seat, turn the switch to the "ON" position to reactivate the airbag and so assure the safety of your front passenger in the event of an impact.
With the ignition on, this warning
lamp comes on in the seat belt and passenger's front airbag warning lamps display for approximately one minute, if the passenger's front airbag is activated.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp flashes, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. The passenger’s front airbag may no longer be deployed in the event of a serious impact.
If even one of the two airbag warning
lamps comes on continuously, do not install a child seat on the front passenger seat. Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible warning and a message in the screen, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked. The airbags may no longer be deployed in the event of a serious impact.

Do not place any object (packet of cigarettes, telephone...) between the gear lever and the electric parking brake control lever.
It is recommended that you do not apply the parking brake in very cold conditions (ice) and during towing (breakdown, caravan...). Deactivate the automatic functions and release the parking brake manually.
If this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, the automatic mode is deactivated.
Programming the mode
Depending on the country of sale of the vehicle,
the automatic application when the engine is switched off and the automatic release when you press the accelerator can be deactivated.
Activation/deactivation is done using the vehicle configuration menu; refer to the section covering the configuration of your vehicle's systems.
The parking brake is then applied and released manually. When the driver's door is opened, there is an audible signal and a message is displayed if the brake is not applied.
