CHECKS















Brake pads

Brake wear depends on
the style of driving, par-
ticularly in the case of ve-
hicles used in town, over
short distances. It may be
necessary to have the condition of
the brakes checked, even between
vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.







Manual gearbox

The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no
oil change).






6-speed electronic
gearbox system
The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no
oil change).






Automatic gearbox

The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no
oil change).

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
CHANGING A BULB
The headlamps are fi tted
with polycarbonate glass
with a protective coating:


)
do not clean them using a dry
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 to-
wards the lamps or their edges
for too long, so as not to dam-
age their protective coating and
seals.



)
Do not touch the bulb directly
with your fi ngers, 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-ul-
traviolet (UV) type bulbs in order
not to damage the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specifi cation.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Before disconnecting


)
Go to the battery.

)
Check that all of the openings -
doors, boot... - are closed but not
locked.

)
Wait at least four minutes after
switching off the ignition.
Charging


)
Disconnect the (+) terminal.

)
Follow the instructions on use
provided by the manufacturer of
the charger.

)
Connect the red cable of the
charger to the (+) post of the bat-
tery, then the black cable to the
(-) terminal.

)
Once charging is complete, dis-
connect the charger cables in re-
verse order.
The charging operation
must be carried out in a
well ventilated area and
well away from naked fl ames and
sources of sparks, so as to avoid
any risk of explosion and fi re.
Do not try to charge a frozen bat-
tery; the battery must fi rst be
thawed out to avoid any risk of ex-
plosion. If the battery has frozen,
before charging, have it checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop, who will ensure that
the internal components have not
been damaged and that the casing
is not cracked, which would intro-
duce the risk of a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.



Charging the battery using
a battery charger
If the battery of your vehicle is fl at
or prior to taking the vehicle out of
service for an extended period, you
can charge the battery using a bat-
tery charger.
For information on the specifi cation
of battery chargers compatible with
your battery, refer to a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
It is recommended that the battery
be disconnected if the vehicle is not
be used for more than a month.
Reinitialisation after
reconnection

After any reconnection of the bat-
tery, switch on the ignition and wait
at least one minute before starting,
to allow time for the initialisation of
the electronic systems.
By referring to the corresponding
sections, you should set or initialise
the following systems yourself:


- the date and time,

- the anti-pinch on the driver's
electric window and the sunroof.

- the panoramic sunroof blind,

- the multifunction screen set-
tings,

- the audio system or navigation
system settings,
Check that there no error message
or warning lamp comes on after
switching on the ignition.
However, if minor problems persist
after carrying out these operations,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration
of use of certain functions to conserve
a suffi cient level of charge in the
battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio
and telematics system, windscreen
wipers, dipped beam headlamps,
courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum
combined duration of thirty minutes.


Switching to economy mode

Once this period has elapsed, a
message appears on the multi-func-
tion screen indicating that the vehi-
cle has switched to economy mode
and the active functions are put on
standby.
If a telephone call is being made at
this time:


- it will be maintained for 10 minu-
tes with your Audio system or
MyWay hands-free system

- it will be maintained for 10 minu-
tes with the NaviDrive, then it will
transfer to your telephone de-
pending on its model.



Exiting economy mode

These functions are reactivated au-
tomatically next time the vehicle is
started.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let
it run for at least 5 minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the
engine from starting (refer
to the corresponding para-
graph).
This period may be reduced con-
siderably if the battery is not fully
charged.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
ROOF BARS

For your safety and to avoid damage
to the roof and tailgate, the design of
your vehicle requires the use of roof
bars and roof boxes that are tested
and approved by CITROËN.
Regardless of the type of load car-
rier to be mounted on the roof (roof
box, bicycle carrier, ski carrier...),
you must fi t transverse roof bars.


Recommendations



)
Distribute the load evenly, avoid-
ing overloading on one side.

)
Arrange the heaviest part of the
load as close as possible to the
roof.

)
Anchor the load securely and fi t
a warning fl ag part of it is over-
hanging.

)
Drive gently, as the vehicle will
be more liable to the effects of
side winds (vehicle stability may
be altered).

)
Remove the roof bars as soon
as they are no longer needed.



Bicycle carrier

Do not attach a strap-fi tting bicycle
carrier to the following vehicle ver-
sions:


- C4 Picasso 5-seater (all versions);

- C4 Picasso 7-seater version with
opening rear screen.

Maximum load, distributed
over the roof bars (for a
loading height not exceed-
ing 40 cm, except bicycle carrier):
80 kg.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt
your speed to the profi le of the road
to avoid damaging the roof bars
and the fi xings on the roof.
Please refer to national legislation
in order to comply with the regula-
tions concerning the transport of
objects which are longer than the
vehicle.

* According to country.
VERY COLD CLIMATE
SCREEN *

Removable protective screen which
prevents the accumulation of snow
at the radiator cooling fan.

Fitting



)
Offer up the very cold climate
screen to the front of the lower
section of the front bumper.

)
Press around its edge to engage
its fi xing clips one by one.



Removal



)
Use a screwdriver as a lever to
release each fi xing clip in turn.
Do not forget to remove the very
cold climate screen:


- when the ambient temperature
exceeds 10 °C,

- when towing,

-
at speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h).

QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
The stored stations donot function (no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...)
An incorrect waveband is selected. Press the BAND AST button to return to the waveband (AM, FM1, FM2, FMAST) on which thestations are stored.

The quality of receptionof the radio station listened to graduallydeteriorates or the stored stations do not function(no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...).
The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listenedto or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the vehicle is travelling.
Activate the RDS function to enable the system to check whether there is a more powerful transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block reception, including in RDS mode.
This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when goingthrough a car wash or into an underground car park).
Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to2 seconds in radio mode.During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency permitting better reception of the station.
Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is too frequent and always on the same route.

With the engine off, the audio equipment switches off after a few minutes of use.
When the engine is switched off, the audio equipment operating timedepends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.

Start the vehicle's engine to increase the batterycharge.

TRAFFIC INFO is selected. However,certain traffi c jams along the route are notindicated in real time.
On starting, it is several minutes before the system begins to receive thetraffi c information.
Wait until the traffi c information is being received correctly (displaying of the traffi c information symbols on the map).
In certain countries, only major routes (motorways, ...) are listed for thetraffi c information.
This phenomenon is normal. The system isdependent on the traffi c information available.
The time taken to calculate a route sometimes seems longer than usual.
The performance of the system may slow down temporarily if a CD isbeing copied onto the Jukebox at the same time as a route is being calculated.

Wait until the CD has been copied or stop the copying before starting the guidance function.

Certain functions described in this handbook will
become available during the year.
MyWay

For safety reasons, the driver must carry out operations which require prolonged attention while the vehicle is stationary.
When the en
gine is switched off and to prevent
discharging of the battery, the MyWay switches off
following the activation of the Energy Economy mode.
