Programming
)Turn dial 1 to the "CRUISE"
position:
the cruise control mode is selectedbut is not switched on (PAUSE).
Exceeding the programmed speed
Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the programmed speed
results in flashing of this speed in the screen.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or
unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels theflashing of the speed.
Return to normal driving
)Turn dial 1to the "0"
position: the cruise control mode is
deselected. The display returns to the distance recorder.
Operating fault
In the event of a cruise control malfunction,
the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. )Set the programmed speed by accelerating to the required speed,
then press button 2or 3(e.g.: 70 mph (11 0 k m/h)).
)Switch off the cruise control by pressing button 4
: this is confirmed in the screen (PAUSE).
)Switch the cruise control back on by pressing button 4again.
You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2 and 3:
- by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = shor t press,
- by + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press,
- in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.
When the cruise control is switched on,be careful if you maintain the pressure on one of the programmed speedchanging buttons: this may result in avery rapid change in the speed of your vehicle. Do not use the cruise control on slippery roads or in heavy traffic. On a steep descent, the cruise control will not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
- never fit one mat on top of another.

Coolant level
The coolant level should be close
to the "MAX" mark but should never exceed it.
Fluid specifi cation
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced with plain water.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to themanufacturer's recommendations.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be changed.
Screenwash fluid level
When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan.
Top up the level when necessary.
The cooling fan may star t after switching
off the engine: take care with ar ticles andclothing that might become caught by thefan blades.
In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised,
wait at least one hour after switching off theengine before carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
by two turns to allow the pressure to drop.
When the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel engine with particle
emission filter)
Used
products
To p p i ng up
This additive must be topped up by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop without delay.
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful tohealth or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop (France) or to anauthorised waste disposal site.
Th
e additive reservoir low level is indicated by fixed
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
warning and a message in the
multifunction screen.

switch.C.
Deflation button. D.Pressure gauge (in bar or p.s.i.). E.Compartment housing:
- a cable with adaptor for 12 V socket,
- various inflation adaptors for
accessories, such as balls, bicycle
t
yres...F
.Sealant car tridge.G. White pipe with cap for repair.
H. Black pipe for inflation.I.
Speed limit sticker.
Access to the kit
This kit is installed in the storage box, under
the boot floor.
The speed limit sticker Imust be affixed to the vehicle's steering wheel to remind you that a wheel is in temporary use.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) when driving with a tyre repaired using this type of kit. Complete s
ystem consisting of a compressor and a sealant car tridge which permits
temporary repair of a tyre so that you can rdrive to the nearest garage.It is designed to repair most punctures which could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread or shoulder.

)Switch on the compressor by moving
the switch Bto position "I"
until the tyre pressure reaches 2.0 bars.
The sealant is injected into the tyre under pressure; do not disconnect the pipe from
the valve during this operation (risk of
splashing).
)
Remove the kit and screw the cap back on
the white pipe.
Take care to avoid stainin
g your vehicle
with traces of fluid. Keep the kit to hand.
) Drive immediately for approximately three
miles (five kilometres), at reduced speed(between 15 and 35 mph (20 and 60 km/h)),
to plug the puncture. ) Stop to check the repair and the tyre
pressure using the kit.
If after around 5 to 7 minutes the pressure is not attained, this indicates that the tyre is not repairable; contacta CITROËN dealer or a qualifiedworkshop for assistance.

2. Infl ation
)Turn the selector A
to the "air" position. )Uncoil the black pipe Hfully. )Connect the black pipe to the
valve of the wheel.
) Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket. ) Star t the vehicle again and leave theengine running.
)
Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B
in position "I"
;
to deflate: switch B in position "O"and press button C), in accordance with the
vehicle's tyre pressure label (located on the
left hand door aperture).
A loss of pressure indicates that thepuncture has not been fully plugged; contact a CITROËN dealer or qualified
workshop for assistance. ) Remove and stow the kit. )
Drive at reduced speed (50 mph [80 km/h]max) limiting the distance travelled to
approximately 120 miles (200 km).
As soon as possible, go to a CITROËNdealer or a qualified workshop.Yo u m u s t i nform the technician that you have used this kit. After inspection, the technician will advise you on whether
the tyre can be repaired or if it must be replaced.

g accessories
You can also use the compressor, without
injecting any product, to:
- check or ad
just the pressure of your tyres,
- inflate other accessories (balls, bicycle
tyres...).
)
Turn the selector A
to the "Air" position. )
Uncoil the black pipe H
fully. )
Connect the black pipe to the
valve of the wheel or accessory.
If necessary, fit one of the adaptorssupplied with the kit first.
)Connect the compressor's electrical connector to the vehicle's 12 V socket. )Star t the vehicle and let the engine run. )Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B in position "I" ;
to deflate: switch B in position "O"and press button C ), according to the vehicle's
tyre pressure label or the accessory'spressure label. )Remove the kit then stow it.
Beware of discharges of fluid.
The expiry date of the fluid is indicated on the car tridge.
The sealant car tridge is designed for single use; even if only partly used, itmust be replaced. After use, do not discard the car tridge into the environment, take it to anauthorised waste disposal site or aCITROËN dealer.
