COMFORT

Air conditioning

To ensure that your system operates
correctly, it is recommended that you
have it checked regularly.
Water arising from condensation
in the air conditioning drains away
through a hole provided for this pur-
pose. A pool of water may thus form
under the vehicle when stationary.
To preserve the sealing of the air
conditioning compressor, operate
the air conditioning at least once a
month.
Regardless of the season, the air
conditioning is useful, since it re-
moves humidity and condensation.
To be effective, the air conditioning
should only be used with the win-
dows closed.
If after a lengthy stop in bright sunlight
the interior temperature is excessive,
air the passenger compartment by
opening the windows for a few mo-
ments, then close them again.
The air conditioning operates by
using power from the engine. This
results in a slight increase in fuel
consumption.


Dust filter/Odour filter (active
carbon)
There is a fi lter for excluding odours
and dust.
This fi lter has to be changed in ac-
cordance with the vehicle's servicing
schedule (see the servicing booklet).


Air circulation

Air vents on the fl oor underneath the
front seats provide enhanced heat-
ing for the rear seat positions; take
care not to obstruct them.


Air vents

The air vents to the face have grilles
and thumb wheels to adjust the air
fl ow and direction (up-down, right-
left).
The automatic regulation of the air
conditioning in the passenger com-
partment uses a number of sensors
(sunshine sensor, ambient tempera-
ture sensor...) that relieve you of the
need to make frequent adjustments to
the displayed temperature.
Take care not to obstruct the sun-
shine sensor, located on the dash-
board behind the instrument panel.

SAFETY
SEAT BELTS

Front seat belts

The front seat belts are fi tted with a
pretensioning system and force limiter.
This system improves safety in the front
seats in the event of a front impact.
Depending on the seriousness of the
impact, the pretensioning system in-
stantly tightens the seat belt against
the body of the occupant.
Fastening


)
Pull the belt down in front of you
in a steady movement, making
sure that it does not become
twisted.

)

Press the fastening into its buckle.

)
Check that it is properly secured
and that the automatic locking
mechanism operates correctly
by pulling sharply on the belt
strap.

)
The lap strap should be posi-
tioned as low down as possible in
the lap and as tight as possible.

)
The diagonal strap should be
positioned across the chest and
away from the neck.
Each belt has a reel that adjusts its
length automatically to the girth of
the seat occupant.

Height adjustment
The pretensioning seat belts are
active when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pres-
sure of the seat belt against the
chest of the occupant, so increasing
his protection.

When correctly adjusted, the seat
belt shoulder strap falls over the
middle of the shoulder.


)
To adjust the belt, squeeze the
control and slide it in the direc-
tion required.



Unfastening


)
To unfasten the belt, press on
the red button in the buckle.
The belt retracts automatically when
not in use.

SAFETY





The driver must ensure that passen-
gers use the seat belts correctly and
that they are all restrained securely
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt
buckles as they will not fulfi l their
role fully.
The seat belts are fi tted with an in-
ertia reel permitting automatic ad-
justment of the length of the strap
to your size. The seat belt is stowed
automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned
in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an
automatic locking device which
comes into operation in the event
of a collision, emergency braking or
if the vehicle rolls over. You can re-
lease the device by pulling fi rmly on
the strap and releasing it so that it
reels in slightly. In order to be effective, a seat belt
must:


- be tightened as close to the body
as possible,

- be pulled in front of you with a
smooth movement, checking
that it does not twist,

-
be used to restrain only one person,

- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,


- not be converted or modifi ed to
avoid affecting its performance.
Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to se-
cure more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your
lap.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all repairs on your
vehicle, go to a qualifi ed workshop
with the skills and equipment need-
ed, which a CITROËN dealer is able
to provide.
Have your seat belts checked reg-
ularly by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop, particularly if the
straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by CITROËN dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and reeled in correctly.
In the event of an impact

Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impact
, the pre-
tensioning device may be deployed
before and independently of the
airbags. Deployment of the preten-
sioners is accompanied by a slight
discharge of harmless smoke and
a noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated
in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

space:


)
Press button A
to activate the
function.

)
Activate the direction indicator
on the side where the space is to
be measured.

)
During the measuring, go for-
ward the length of the space, at
a speed less than 12 mph (ap-
proximately 20 km/h), to prepare
for your manoeuvre.
The system then measures the
size of the space.

)
The system informs you of the
level of diffi culty of the manoeu-
vre via a message in the multi-
function screen accompanied by
an audible signal.
Parking possible


Parking diffi cult


Parking not advised


The function displays the following
types of message: The function deactivates itself auto-
matically:


- when you engage reverse gear,

- when you switch off the ignition,

- fi ve minutes after activation of
the function or after the last mea-
surement operation,

- if the vehicle speed exceeds the
threshold of 45 mph (approxi-
mately 70 km/h) for one minute.
If there is a malfunction,
have the system checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.

If the lateral distance between your
vehicle and the parking space is too
great, the system may not operate.



- The function remains available
after each measurement and so
can measure a number of places
successively.

- In bad weather or in winter, en-
sure that the sensors are not cov-
ered by dirt, or by ice or snow.

- The parking space sensor func-
tion deactivates the front parking
sensors during the space mea-
