PANORAMIC SUNROOF

Your vehicle is fi tted with a tinted glass
panoramic sunroof which increases the
light and visibility in the passenger com-
partment. Its electric blind helps control
the temperature in the passenger com-
partment.

Electric blind


Opening
Turn the dial to the left (four possible
settings).

Closing
Return the dial to the initial position.
Safety anti-pinch
If the blind encounters an obstacle dur-
ing closing, it stops and partially opens
again.
If the blind fails to close at a second at-
tempt, it may be necessary to force the
closing of the blind using the reinitiali-
sation procedure.
The blind is controlled electrically by a
rotary dial.
In the event of contact during op-
eration of the blind, you must re-
verse its movement. To do this,
turn the dial.
When the driver operates the
dial, they must ensure that noth-
ing prevents the blind from clos-
ing correctly.
The driver must ensure that the
passengers use the blind cor-
rectly.
Be aware of children during
operation of the blind.



Reinitialising the system


Following reconnection of the battery,
or in the event of a malfunction in its
operation, it may be necessary to reini-
tialise the system:


)
turn the dial to the fully closed posi-
tion,

)
then immediately press the dial, clos-
ing starts after about 10 seconds,

)
maintain pressure on the dial until
the blind has fully closed.

The anti-pinch function is inopera-
tive during these operations.


If the position of the blind does not
agree with the position indicated by the
dial, press the dial to open the blind to
this position.

SAFETY
146













For the airbags to be fully
effective, observe the
following safety rules:
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat
belt.
Do not leave anything between
the occupants and the airbags
(a child, pet, object...). This could
hamper the operation of the air-
bags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the ve-
hicle has been stolen or broken
into, have the airbag systems
checked.
All work on the airbag system must
be carried out by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Even if all of the precautions men-
tioned are observed, a risk of in-
jury or of minor burns to the head,
chest or arms when an airbag is
deployed cannot be ruled out.
The bag infl ates almost instantly
(within a few milliseconds) then
defl ates within the same time dis-
charging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on
the centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard.
If possible, do not smoke as deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the
risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.



Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your vehicle, you
can contact a CITROËN dealer (see "Practical information - § Accessories").
Do not fi x or attach anything to the seat backs (clothing...). This could cause in-
jury to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.

Curtain airbags
Do not fi x or attach anything to the roof. This could cause injury to the head if the
curtain airbag is deployed.
If fi tted on your vehicle, do not remove the grab handles installed on the roof, they
play a part in securing the curtain airbags.

the slave battery B
.

)
Connect one end of the green or
black cable to the negative terminal
(-) of the slave battery B
.

)
Connect the other end of the green
or black cable to the earth point C

on the broken down vehicle.

the roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm,
adapt the speed of the vehicle
to the profi le of the road to avoid
damaging the roof bars and the
fi xings on the vehicle.
