AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT OFXENON HEADLAMPS


The remote switching on of the light-
ing and side spotlamps makes your ap-
proach to the vehicle easier in poor light.
It is activated depending on the light level
detected by the sunshine sensor.
The dipped beam headlamps and the
sidelamps come on, as well as the side
spotlamps, located under the door mir-
rors; your vehicle is also unlocked.
In order to avoid causing a nuisance to
other road users, this system corrects
the height of the xenon headlamp beams
automatically and when stationary, in re-
lation to the load in the vehicle.
If a malfunction occurs, this
warning lamp is displayed
on the instrument panel, ac-
companied by an audible
signal and a message in the screen.
The system then places your headlamps
in the lowest position.
Do not touch the xenon head-
lamp bulbs.

qualifi ed workshop. The lighting duration is select-
ed via the vehicle confi guration
menu.

Children under the age of 10 must
not travel in the "forwards-facing"
position on the front passenger seat,
unless the rear seats are already oc-
cupied by other children, cannot be
used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger airbag
when a "rearwards-facing" child seat
is installed on the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were to infl ate.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS

As a safety precaution, do not leave:


- a child or children alone and un-
supervised 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 and rear windows, use the
"Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear win-
dows by more than one third.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, fi t side blinds on the
rear windows.


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, fi tted
with a seat belt guide at shoulder level. 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 relative to the child's body to a
minimum, even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the
seat belt, ensure that the seat belt is
tightened correctly on the child seat
and that it secures the child seat fi rmly
on the seat of your vehicle. Move the
seat forwards if necessary.
For optimum installation of the "for-
wards-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 re-
moved, ensure that it is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from
being thrown around the vehicle in
the event of sharp braking.

Manual operation



)
Select position M
for sequential

changing of the six gears.

)
Push the lever towards the +
sign to
change up a gear.

)
Pull the lever towards the -
sign to
change down a gear.
It is only possible to change from one
gear to another if the vehicle speed and
engine speed permit; otherwise, the
gearbox will operate temporarily in au-
tomatic mode.

D
disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succes-
sion in the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low
or too high, the gear selected
fl ashes for a few seconds, then the ac-
tual gear engaged is displayed.
It is possible to change from position D

(automatic) to position M
(manual) at
any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox selects gear M1

automatically.
The sport and snow programmes do
not operate in manual mode.
Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a
gear is not engaged correctly
(selector between two posi-
tions).



Stopping the vehicle

Before switching off the engine, you
can engage position P
or N
to place the
gearbox in neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake
to immobilise the vehicle, unless it is
programmed to automatic mode.

If the lever is not in position P
,
when the driver's door is opened
or approximately 45 seconds af-
ter the ignition is switched off,
there is an audible signal and a
message appears.


)
Return the lever to position P
;
the audible signal stops and
the message disappears.


You risk damaging the gearbox:


- if you press the accelerator
and brake pedals at the same
time,

- if you force the lever from po-
sition P
to another position
when the battery is fl at. When the ignition is on, the
lighting of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the multifunction
screen, indicates a gearbox malfunction.
In this case, the gearbox switches to
back-up mode and is locked in 3rd gear.
You may feel a substantial knock when
changing from P
to R
and from N
to R
.
This will not cause any damage to the
gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local
speed restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
This warning lamp may also come on if
a door is opened.
Operating fault
To reduce fuel consumption
when stationary for long periods
with the engine running (traffi c
jam...), position the gear lever at
N
and apply the parking brake,
unless it is programmed in auto-
matic mode.
