Misfuel prevention (Diesel) *
Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of
engine damage that can result from filling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention device appears when the filler cap is removed.
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the
fuel filler neck of your Diesel vehicle, it comes
into contact with the flap. The system remains
closed and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.
Operation
It remains possible to use a fuel can to
fill the tank; this must be done slowly.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can
in direct contact with the flap of the
misfuel prevention device.
This equipment will become available during
the year.
*
According to country of sale.
Tr a v e l l i n g a b r o a d
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may
make refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we recommend
that you check with the CITROËN dealer
network, whether your vehicle is suitable
for the fuel pumps in the country in
which you want to travel.

countries, which comes on automatically when
the engine is star ted making the vehicle more
visible to other users.
This function is assured:
- in countries where it is imposed by
regulations,
by illumination of the dipped beam
headlamps associated with illumination of
the sidelamps and number plate lamps; this
function cannot be deactivated.
- for other countries where it is provided,
by illumination of dedicated lamps
associated with illumination of the
sidelamps and number plate lamps; this
function can be activated or deactivated via
the vehicle configuration menu.
The instruments and controls (multifunction

149Fittings
230 V/50 Hz power
socket
A 230 V/50 Hz socket (maximum power: 120 W)
is fitted to the centre console.
To use the socket:
)
lift the front armrest cover for access to its
compartment,
)
check that the warning lamp is on green,
)
connect your multimedia or other electrical
device (telephone charger, laptop computer,
CD-DVD player, baby food warmer...).
This socket works with the engine running, as
well as in STOP mode on Stop & Start.
In the event of a fault with the socket, the green
warning lamp flashes.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Connect only one device at a time to
the socket (no extension or multi-way
connector).
Connect only devices with class II
insulation (shown on the device).
As a safety measure, when electrical
consumption is high and when
required by the vehicle's electrical
system (particular weather conditions,
electrical overload...), the current
supply to the socket will be cut off;
the green warning lamp goes off.
12 V accessory
socket

Safety
Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables you
to obtain the optimum braking pressure more
quickly, thus reducing the stopping distance.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake
pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase in
braking efficiency.
When braking in an emergency, press
firmly without releasing the pressure.
Trajectory control systems (ESP)
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
control (ESC)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as traction
control) optimises traction to prevent skidding
of the wheels, by acting on the brakes of the
driving wheels and on the engine.
The electronic stability control acts on the
brake of one or more wheels and on the engine
to keep the vehicle on the trajectory required
by the driver, within the limits of the laws of
physics.
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is star ted.
They come into operation in the event of a grip
or trajectory problem.
This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument panel.
Intelligent traction control
system ("Snow motion")
Your vehicle has a system to help driving on
snow: intelligent traction control.
This system detects situations of difficult
sur face adhesion that could make it difficult to
move off or make progress on deep fresh snow
or compacted snow.
In these situations, the intelligent traction
control
limits the amount of wheel slip to
provide the best traction and trajectory control
for your vehicle.
The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on sur faces offering low
levels of adhesion.
