TECHNOLOGY ON BOARD
Bluetooth hands-free system
Managing outgoing calls
Using the keypad
Dial the number of the person to be called
on the mobile telephone keypad.
Press the "Pick up" button on the mobile
telephone.
Depending on the model of mobile
telephone, the call will be transferred to
hands-free mode automatically, if it is not,
press the green telephone on the steering
mounted controls.
To redial the last number dialled, press and
hold the green telephone until the number
has been redialled. Using the voice commands
Press the green telephone on the steering
mounted controls.
Wait for the audible signal and/or the
appearance of the message "Phone" in the
audio system screen.
Say the vocal identity of the person to be
called.
The system repeats the vocal identity
for confirmation and makes the call
automatically.
If the vocal identity repeated by the system
is not correct, press the red telephone on
the steering mounted controls to cancel and
start the procedure again.
In order to use the voice commands,
you must first record a vocal identity
and associate it with the telephone number
to be called; refer to your mobile telephone
manual. Clearing the system
To clear the contents of the system's
memory, press the green and red
telephones on the steering mounted controls
simultaneously for more than two seconds.
This operation clears all of the paired mobile
telephones and all of the telephone numbers
recorded in the system's memory.
For the next hands-free call you will have
to repeat the first connection to the system
(pairing) procedure.
Good practice
You can pair up to three mobile telephones
with the system.
For safety reasons and because they
require prolonged attention on the part
of the driver, the operations for pairing the
mobile telephone and the Bluetooth ®
hands-
free kit must be carried out with the vehicle
stationary and the ignition on. 77

SAFETY
Seat belts
FRONT SEAT BELTS
The front seats are fitted with pre-tensioners
and force limiters.
Fastening
Pull the strap, then insert the tongue into the
buckle.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap.
The lap belt must be positioned as low as
possible on the pelvis. The chest belt must
pass over the hollow of the shoulder. Inertia reel seat belts
These are fitted with a device which locks
automatically in the event of a collision or
emergency braking.
Safety in the event of a front impact has
been improved by the introduction of
pretensioning and force limiting seat belts.
Depending on the seriousness of the
impact, the pretensioning system instantly
tightens the seat belt against the body of the
occupant.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt against the body of the occupant in
the event of an accident. Driver's seat belt not fastened warning
lamp
When the vehicle is started, this
warning lamp comes on if the
driver has not fastened their seat
belt.
REAR SEAT BELTS (COMBI)
The 3-seat bench is fitted with three-point
inertia reel seat belts with force limiter.
The centre seat has a seat belt guide and
inertia reel, integrated with the seat back.
When a seat belt is not in use, you can
store its buckle in the housing provided
in the bench seat cushion.
If the driver's seat belt is unfastened,
the START mode of Stop & Start will
not be invoked. The engine can only be
restarted using the ignition key.

SAFETY
Child safety
ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
CITROËN recommends the use of a booster
seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt
guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and unsupervised in a vehicle,
- a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,
- the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the doors,
use the "Child lock".
Children under the age of 10 must not travel
in the "forward facing" position on the front
passenger seat, unless the rear seats are
already occupied by other children, cannot
be used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag when a
"rear facing" child seat is installed on the
front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were
to inflate.
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses
keeping the slack in
relation to the child's body to a minimum ,
even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "forward
facing" child seat, ensure that the back of
the child seat is in contact with the back of
the vehicle's seat and that the head restraint
does not cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached securely
to prevent it from being thrown around the
vehicle in the event of sharp braking.
To protect young children from the sun, fit
side blinds on the rear windows.

Fuel
FILLING WITH FUEL
Capacity of the fuel tank: approximately
45 litres .
Low fuel level
When the minimum fuel tank level
is reached, this warning lamp
comes on. When it first comes on,
you have approximately 6
litres
of fuel remaining. Refuel without delay to
avoid running out of fuel. Refuelling must be done
with the engine off.
- Open the fuel filler flap.
- Hold the filler cap with one hand.
- With the other hand, insert the key, then turn it a third of a turn.
- R e m o v e t h e fi l l e r c a p a n d h a n g i t o n t h e h o o k , l o c a t e d o n t h e i n s i d e o f t h e fi l l e r fl a p .
FUEL CIRCUIT DEACTIVATED
In the event of a serious collision, a device
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the
engine and the vehicle's electrical supply.
It also triggers the automatic unlocking of
the doors and switching on of the courtesy
lights. A message appears on the instrument
panel display according to version.
Turn the key to the STOP position to prevent
discharging of the battery.
Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel
outside the vehicle.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key. When the fuel filler flap is open, a
safety system prevents sliding of the
side door.
A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
Opening the filler cap may cause a noise
resulting from the inrush of air. This vacuum
is quite normal and results from the sealing
of the fuel system.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle; this could
cause malfunctions.
After filling the fuel tank, lock the filler cap
and close the flap.
