Engine oil level indicator
When the ignition is switched on,
the engine oil level is indicated for
approximately 10 seconds, after the
service information.
Flashing of the six squares and the
display of "max" indicate that the oil
level is too high, which could damage
the engine.
If the excess oil is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, contact a
CITROËN dealer without delay. Your CITROËN dealer carries out
this operation after each service.
The reset procedure is as follows:
- Switch off the ignition.
- Press and hold button 1
.
- Switch on the ignition.
The display begins a 10 second
countdown.
- Keep button 1
pressed for 10 sec-
onds.
The display shows [=0]
and the span-
ner disappears.
Flashing of the six bars and the dis-
play of "min" indicate that the oil level
is too low, which could damage the
engine.
If the lack of oil is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, it is essential
that the level is topped up. Flashing of the six bars indicates a
malfunction of the oil level indicator.
There is a risk of damage to the engine.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
The level read on the dipstick or on
the indicator will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.

ELECTRONIC ENGINE
IMMOBILISER
This locks the engine control sys-
tem as soon as the ignition has been
switched off and therefore prevents
starting of the vehicle by anyone who
does not have the key.
The ignition key has an electronic
chip which has a special code. When
the ignition is switched on, the code
must be recognised for the vehicle to
start.
If the system does not function
correctly,
the central locking button
indicator light, situated in the centre
of the fascia, fl ashes rapidly when the
ignition is switched on (2nd notch),
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the display.
In this case your vehicle will not start.
Contact a CITROËN dealer as soon
as possible.
Key in ignition
A buzzer sounds on opening the driv-
er's door, if the key has been left in
the ignition. Make a careful note of the
number of each key. This
number is coded on the label
attached to the key.
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 vehi-
cle, without you being aware of it.
The remote control does not operate
when the key is in the ignition, even
when the ignition is switched off,
except for reprogramming.
Do not operate the deadlocking function
if there is anyone inside the vehicle.
Driving with the doors locked may
make access to the passenger com-
partment by the emergency services
more diffi cult in an emergency.
As a safety precaution (with children
on board), remove the key from the
ignition when you leave the vehicle,
even for a short time.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons
of your remote control out of range of
your vehicle.
You run the risk of stopping it from
working and the remote control would
have to be reprogrammed.
When purchasing a second-hand ve-
hicle, have the key codes memorised
by a CITROËN dealer, to ensure that
the keys in your possession are the
only ones which can start the vehicle.
Do not make any modifi cations to the
electronic engine immobiliser system.
If the keys are lost
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the vehi-
cle's V5 registration certifi cate and your
personal identifi cation documents.
The CITROËN network will be able to
retrieve the key code and the trans-
ponder code to order a replacement
key.
A heavy object (key fob...), attached
to the key and weighing down on
its shaft in the ignition switch, could
cause a malfunction.

Exceeding the programmed
speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal in or-
der to exceed the programmed speed
will have no effect unless you press
the pedal fi rmly
beyond the point of
resistance
.
The limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the programmed speed which is
still displayed fl ashes.
Flashing of the speed
The speed fl ashes:
- following forcing of the accelerator
point of resistance,
- when the limiter cannot prevent
an increase in the vehicle speed
due to the profi le of the road or on
a steep descent,
- in the event of sharp acceleration.
In any event, the speed limiter can-
not replace the need to observe
speed limits, nor can it replace the
need for vigilance and responsibil-
ity on the part of the driver.
The driver must always pay attention
to the profi le of the road, take care
on sharp acceleration and remain in
perfect control of his vehicle.
To prevent the mat from becoming
trapped under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fi xings
are positioned correctly,
-
never fi t one mat on top of another.

Contact a CITROËN dealer to have
the system checked. To return to the limiter function, re-
duce your speed to the programmed
speed or below.
