As a safety measure, the motor will
not star t when the charging cable is
connected to the vehicle's socket.
Also, any attempt to star t the motor
interrupts the charging procedure. It
will then be necessary to disconnect
and reconnect the charging cable plug
to continue charging.
After charging, close the charging
socket cover and flap.
Take care to avoid the ingress of water
or dust to the socket and its cover
or the charging plug. Risk of fire or
electrocution.
After charging, do not leave the cable
connected to the electric power
point. There is a risk of shor t circuit
or electrocution if it is contacted or
immersed in water.
To optimise the ser vice life of the
main batter y, charge it completely
ever y 15 days.
For a complete charge, follow the
normal charging procedure (domestic
power point) without interruption, until it
stops automatically (charging warning
lamp off in the instrument panel).
)
The charging warning lamp in the
instrument panel goes off when charging
has finished.
)
Press the button to remove the charging
plug.
)
Refit the protective cover to the charging
cable.
)
Close the charging socket cover, then the
flap.
)
Disconnect the charging cable from the
power point.
)
Stow the charging cable in the bag
provided.
Vehicle out of use for a long
period
When your vehicle is going to be out of
use for a long period, charge the main
battery completely every three months
(following the normal charging
procedure).
Before charging, check that the
ancillaries battery is not disconnected
or discharged. If this is the case, refer
to the "ancillaries battery" section for
reconnecting or charging the battery.

)
Check that the compressor switch A
is in
the " OFF
" position.
)
Uncoil the compressor pipe B
.
)
Connect this pipe to the valve of the
repaired wheel.
)
Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket (ignition switch in
position "ON" or "ACC").
)
Star t the compressor by turning the
switch A
to the "ON
" position.
)
Using the compressor, adjust the pressure
in accordance with the vehicle's tyre
pressure label (located in the driver's door
aperture).
A loss of pressure indicates that the
puncture has not been fully plugged;
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop for assistance.
)
Remove the compressor and stow the kit.
)
Drive off straight away at reduced speed
(50 mph [80 km/h] max) limiting the
distance travelled to approximately
120 miles (200 km).
As soon as possible, go to a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Tell the technician that you have used
the kit. After checking, the technician
will advise you whether the tyre can be
repaired or must be replaced.
If after around 5 to 7 minutes the
pressure is not attained, this indicates
that the tyre is not repairable; contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop for assistance.

Sidelamps (W5W - 5 W).
3.
Main beam headlamps (HB3 - 60 W).
4.
Dipped beam headlamps (H11 - 55 W)
.
The headlamps are fitted with
polycarbonate glass with a protective
coating:
)
do not clean them using a
dr y or abrasive cloth, nor
with a detergent or solvent
product,
)
use a sponge and soapy water,
)
when using a high pressure
washer on persistent marks,
do not keep the lance directed
towards the lamps or their
edges for too long, so as not to
damage their protective coating
and seals.
)
Do not touch the bulb directly with
your fingers, use lint-free cloths.
Changing a bulb should only be done
after the headlamp has been switched
off for a few minutes (risk of serious
burns).
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs in order not
to damage the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specification.

is normal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.
