CORRECT USE OF THE VENTILATION AND AIR
CONDITIONING
Vents


"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion of hot
or cool air in the passenger compartment,
there are adjustable central and side vents
which can be directed sideways (right or
left) towards the top of the body. For your
comfort while driving, do not close them,
direct the flow of air towards the windows
instead.
The air vents directed towards the floor of
the vehicle complete the equipment.


Passenger compartment filter, carbon filter

Ensure that this fi lter is in good condition and
have all of the fi lter elements replaced regularly.
Refer to the "Checks" section of
chapter 6.
Air conditioning

In all seasons, the air conditioning should
only be used with the windows closed.
However, if the interior temperature remains
high after a prolonged period parked
in the sun, first ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes. Use the AUTO mode as much as
possible as it permits optimised control
of all of the functions: air flow, passenger
compartment comfort temperature,
air distribution, air intake mode or air
recirculation in the passenger compartment.
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to
10 minutes, once or twice a month, to keep
it in perfect working order.
It is normal that the condensation created by
the air conditioning system results in a flow
of water which may form a puddle under the
vehicle when parked.
If the system does not produce cold air, do
not use it and contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.

windows (humidity, several passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility programme.
The visibility programme indicator lamp
comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air
flow, the defrosting of the rear screen
and provides optimum distribution of the
ventilation to the windscreen and side
windows.
It deactivates the air recirculation.

REAR VENTILATION

If your vehicle is fitted with an additional air
conditioning unit, located in the rear of the
vehicle. The distribution duct located in the
roof and the 6 individual vents provide a
perfect air distribution.
The warm air diffused at the floor, from the
front heating and air conditioning unit, is
distributed at the feet of the rear passengers
of the 2nd row.
A warm air diffusion vent, located on the
specific unit, completes the installation
for the feet of the rear passengers of the
3rd row.

Temperature adjustment

Control positioned:


- on the blue, produces cool air,

- on the red, produces heating.


Activation / Deactivation
Air flow

The fan speed for the air via the
vents, varies from 1 to the fastest 4.
To obtain the desired comfort
level, remember to adjust this
control.
To stop the fan, place the control in position 0. This button, located on the
overhead storage unit, enables
you to activate or deactivate the
operation of the rear controls
from the driver's seat or the front passenger
seat.
The first press activates (green LED on).
A second press deactivates (LED off).

ANTI-SLIP REGULATION (ASR)AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (DSC)
These systems are linked and complement
the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and avoiding
losses of control of the vehicle on
acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent the
wheels skidding, by acting on the brakes of
the drive wheels and on the engine. It also
allows the directional stability of the vehicle
to be improved on acceleration. acts on the engine and the brake of one
or more wheels, in order to put the vehicle
back on course.
Deactivating the ASR/DSC systems
In certain exceptional conditions (starting
the vehicle when stuck in mud or snow, or
on loose ground...), it could prove useful
to deactivate the ASR and DSC systems to
make the wheels spin and regain grip.


- Press the button, located on the centre
console.

- The indicator lamp comes on: the ASR
and DSC systems no longer operate.
Operating check


Good practice

The ASR/DSC systems offer increased
safety during normal driving, but should not
encourage the driver to take risks or to drive
at high speed.
The operation of these systems is assured
only if the recommendations of the
manufacturer regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components, the
electronic components and fitting and repair
procedures are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Operation of the ASR and DSC systems

The LED flashes when
the ASR or DSC is
triggered.

They engage again:


- automatically above 30 mph (50 km/h),

- manually by pressing the button again.
When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in
the screen.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
The warning lamp may also come on if the
tyres are under-inflated. Check the pressure
of each tyre.

Use the DSC to hold your course without
attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the trajectory
followed by the vehicle and that required by
the driver, the DSC system automatically

Airbags

SAFETY
4

The airbags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants (with
the exception of the centre seats of rows
2 and 3) in the event of a serious collision;
they work in conjunction with the force
limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse the
front and side impacts suffered in the impact
detection zones:


- in the event of a serious impact, the
airbags inflate instantly and contribute
towards better protecting the occupants of the vehicle. Straight after the impact
the airbags quickly deflate so as to
not impede visibility, or the exit of
passengers if required.


- in the event of a minor or rear impact
and in certain roll-over conditions, the
airbags will not be deployed; the seat
belt alone is sufficient to contribute
towards providing your protection in
these situations.
The seriousness of the collision depends on
the nature of the obstacle and the speed of
the vehicle at the moment of impact. It is imperative that the passenger's
airbag is deactivated if a child seat
is installed facing rearwards. Refer to the
"Children on board" section of chapter 4.

Airbags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
This equipment only operates once. If a
second impact occurs (during the same or
a subsequent accident), the airbag will not
operate.
The deployment of an airbag or airbags is
accompanied by a slight discharge of smoke
and a noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the
system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result in a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.

Towing a trailer
You should therefore use a high gear to
lower the engine speed and reduce your
speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
Ty r e s
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle (see the "Identification markings"
section of chapter 8) and of the trailer,
observing the recommended pressures.
Towbar

We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle, and that
you entrust the fitting of this equipment to a
CITROËN dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment installed at the
rear of the vehicle and in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.
In accordance with the general instructions
a reminder of which has been given above,
we draw your attention to the risk associated
with fitting a towbar or electrical accessory
not recommended by CITROËN. Fitting such
equipment could result in the failure of your
vehicle's electronic system. Please obtain
information from the Manufacturer before
fitting this type of equipment. If the coolant temperature warning
lamp comes on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine as soon
as possible.

Good Practice

In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a steep
slope in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power. In this case,
the air conditioning is automatically cut off to
save engine power.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 6.
Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance. Drive
at a moderate speed, change down early
and brake gradually.

Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased. Drive
smoothly and at a moderate speed.

ABS/DSC
The ABS or DSC systems only control the
vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.

Rear parking sensors
The parking sensors system does not
function while the vehicle is towing.
