Lost keys

Visit a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's registration document, your personal
identification documents and if possible the key code label.
The CITROËN dealer will be able to find the key code and the transponder code required to
order a new key.


Remote control

The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate it while it is in your
pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock the vehicle, without you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control out of range and out of sight of
your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and the remote control would have
to be reinitialised.
The remote control does not operate when the key is in the ignition switch, even when the
ignition is switched off, except for reinitialisation.


Locking the vehicle

Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compar tment by the
emergency services more difficult in an emergency.
As a safety precaution (with children on board), remove the key from the ignition switch
when you leave the vehicle, even for a shor t time.


Anti-theft protection

Do not make any modifications to the electronic engine immobiliser system; this could
cause malfunctions.


When purchasing a second-hand vehicle

Have the pairing of all of the keys in your possession checked by a CITROËN dealer,
to ensure that only your keys can be used to open and start the vehicle.

wiper stalk, displays the different trip computer
information in succession, depending on the screen.


- the "vehicle " tab with:


●
the range, the current fuel consumption and
the distance remaining to the destination or the
Stop & Start time counter,

- the "1" tab (trip 1) with:


●
the average speed, the average consumption
and the distance travelled calculated over
trip " 1
",

- the "2" tab (trip 2) with the same information for
a second trip.

Zero reset
When the required trip is displayed, press the control
for more than two seconds.

Range:
displays the distance which can travelled with the remaining fuel
detected in the tank, based on the average fuel consumption over the last
few miles (kilometres).
This displayed value may vary signifi cantly following a change in
the vehicle speed or the relief of the route.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km), dashes are displayed.
After fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If, whilst driving, dashes are displayed continuously in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
