SAFETY



Airbags



LATERAL AIRBAGS


Deployment
It is deployed unilaterally in the event of a
serious side impact, perpendicular to the
longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on
a horizontal plane and directed from the
outside towards the inside of the vehicle.
The lateral airbag inflates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim panel.

In the event of a minor impact or bump
on the side of the vehicle or if the
vehicle rolls over, the airbag may not be
deployed.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay to have
the system checked. The airbags
may no longer be deployed in the
event of a serious impact.

Airbags



FRONT AIRBAGS

The front airbags are fitted in the centre of
the steering wheel for the driver and in the
dashboard for the front passenger.

Deployment
They are deployed simultaneously, unless
the passenger's front airbag has been
deactivated, in the event of a serious front
impact.
The front airbag inflates between the front
occupant of the vehicle and the dashboard
to cushion their forward movement.
Deactivation
Only the passenger's front airbag can be
deactivated. The airbag is deactivated from
the trip computer.
The airbag warning lamp in the
instrument panel is on while the
airbag is deactivated. To assure the safety of your child, you
must deactivate the passenger airbag
when you install a rear-facing child seat on
the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the
child would risk being killed or seriously
injured if the airbag were to inflate.
Refer to the "MENU" section of
chapter 3, then select OFF
on the
"Passenger airbag" menu.
Operating fault

If the two airbag warning lamps are
on continuously, do not install a rear-
facing child seat.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message in the screen, contract
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop
without delay to have the system checked.
The airbags may no longer be deployed in the
event of a serious impact.

Fuel


FILLING WITH FUEL

Capacity of the fuel tank: approximately 45 litres.


Low fuel level

When the minimum fuel tank level
is reached, this warning lamp
comes on. When it first comes on,
you have approximately 6
litres
of fuel remaining. Refuel without delay to
avoid running out of fuel. Refuelling must be done with the engine off.


- Open the fuel filler flap.

- Hold the filler cap with one hand.

- With the other hand, insert the key, then
turn it a third of a turn.

- Remove the filler cap and hang it on the
hook, located on the inside of the filler
flap.

FUEL CIRCUIT DEACTIVATED

In the event of a serious collision, a device
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the
engine and the vehicle's electrical supply.
It also triggers the automatic unlocking of
the doors and switching on of the courtesy
lights. A message appears on the instrument
panel display according to version.
Turn the key to the STOP position to prevent
discharging of the battery.
Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel
outside the vehicle.






With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key.
When the fuel filler flap is open, a
safety system prevents sliding of the
side door (Combi).
A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
Opening the filler cap may cause a noise
resulting from the inrush of air. This vacuum
is quite normal and results from the sealing
of the fuel system.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle; this could
cause malfunctions.
After filling the fuel tank, lock the filler cap
and close the flap.

Levels

These regular maintenance operations
will keep your vehicle in good working
order. Ask for advice from a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop or refer to the
servicing booklet provided in the handbook
pack.
LEVELS


Oil level

Check the level regularly and top up
between changes. The maximum oil
consumption is 0.5 litre per 600 miles
(1 000 km). Check the level with the vehicle
level, engine cold, using the dipstick.

Dipstick
There are two marks on the
dipstick:

A
= maximum
If you fill past this mark,
contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.

B
= minimum
Never allow the level to fall
below this mark.
To preserve the reliability of engines and
emission control systems, the use of
additives in engine oil is prohibited.
Oil change


Brake fluid level

The brake fluid must be changed at
the specified interval, as given in the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use fluids recommended by the
manufacturer, which meets the DOT4
standard.
The level must be between the MIN
and
MAX
marks on the reservoir.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a fault which must be checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.


Warning lamps

Checking by means of the warning
lamps in the instrument panel is
described in chapter 1, refer to the
"Instruments and controls" section. This must be carried out at the specified
interval and the viscosity grade of the oil
selected must fulfil the requirements of the
manufacturer's servicing schedule. Ask for
advice from a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Remove the dipstick before filling.
Check the level after filling (never exceed
the maximum mark).
Refit the filler cap before closing the bonnet.

QUICK HELP



Checks








Manual gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the Warranty and Maintenance
Record for the details of the level checking
interval for this component.
To check the main levels and certain
components, in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule, refer to
the pages of the servicing booklet which
correspond to your vehicle's engine.
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent quality
and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units as
important as the braking system, CITROËN
selects and offers specific products.
In order to avoid damaging the electrical
units, high pressure washing to clean the
engine compartment is strictly prohibited.






Particle filter system (1.3 HDi 75)

An addition to the catalytic converter, this
fi lter makes an active contribution to the
preservation of air quality by the retaining of
the unburnt pollutant particles. Black exhaust
fumes are thus no longer emitted.
This fi lter, fi tted to the exhaust system,
accumulates particles of soot. The engine
control unit manages the automatic
periodic elimination of the soot particles
(regeneration).
the regeneration procedure is invoked
according to the quantity of particles
accumulated and the driving conditions of the
vehicle. During this phase, you may notice
some unusual phenomena - increased idling
speed, cooling fan running, increase in smoke
and higher exhaust gas temperature - which
does not affect the operation of the vehicle or
the environment.
After prolonged idling or driving at very low
speeds, you may occasionally notice water
vapour being emitted from the exhaust when
accelerating. This is of no consequence to the
running of the vehicle or to the environment.
Saturation/Regeneration
If there is risk of blockage of the
filter, this warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel.
This alert tells you that the
particle filter is starting to fill up (in
conditions of urban driving of exceptionally
long duration: low speeds, traffic jams etc.)
To regenerate the filter, it is advised to drive
as soon as possible, when traffic conditions
and the law permit, at a speed of at least
40 mph (around 60 km/h), with an engine
speed above 2 000 rpm for about fifteen
minutes (until the warning lamp and/or the
message disappears).
if possible, avoid switching off the engine
before the end of regeneration of the
filter; repeated interruptions could cause
premature deterioration of the engine oil.
It is not recommended to end regeneration
of the filter with the vehicle stationary.

Operating fault
If this alert persists, do not ignore the
warning; it indicates that a fault has occurred
in the exhaust/particle filter system.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.








Electronic gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing booklet for details of
the checking interval for this component.
Because of the higher exhaust
gas temperature resulting from the
normal operation of the particle fi lter, it is
recommended that you do not park the vehicle
over infl ammable materials (grass, dry leaves,
pine needles, ...) so as to avoid any risk of fi re.
