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)
or
vertically (up or down). For your
comfort
while driving, do not close
them
and direct the flow of air towards
the
windows instead.

Do
not block the vents located at the

in

dust filter, odour filter
(activated carbon)
This filter traps certain dust and limits odours.
Ensure
that this filter is in good
condition
and have all of the filter
elements
replaced regularly.
Refer to the "Checks" section of chapter 7.
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, do
not hesitate to ventilate the passenger
compartment
for a few minutes.
Use
the
AUT
O 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 good working order.
If
the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a CITR
o Ë n
dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Automatic mode: visibility

The
comfort
programme
(AUTO)
may

sufficient
to
quickly
demist

(humidity,

In this case, select the visibility

The

indicator
comes

It activates the air conditioning, the air
flow
and
provides
optimum
distribution
of the ventilation to the windscreen and
side
windows.
It
deactivates
the
air
recirculation. 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.

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.
Use the
d SC 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 acts on the
engine
and the brake of one or more
wheels,
in order to put the vehicle back
on
course.
deactivation
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting the vehicle when stuck in mud
or
snow, or on loose ground...), it could
prove useful to deactivate the a
SR and
DSC
systems to make the wheels spin
and
regain grip.
Operating fault
Good practice
The ASR/DSC systems offer increased safety
during normal driving, but
should
not incite the driver to take risks
or
to drive at high speed.
The
operation of these systems is
ensured
if the recommendations
of
the manufacturer regarding
the
wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking
components, the electronic
components
and the fitting and repair
procedures
are observed.
After
an impact, have these systems
checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
workshop.
Operation
The warning lamp flashes when operation of the a SR or
DSC
is triggered.
t
hey engage again:
-
automatically
above 30 mph
(50
km/h), When
a malfunction of the systems
occurs, the warning
lamp
and the LED come on,
accompanied
by an audible
signal
and a message in the
screen.
-
Press the button or turn
the dial to the
d SC o FF
position (depending on
model).
-
The
LED comes on: the
ASR
and
DSC
systems no longer come into
play
. -
manually
by pressing the
button again or by turning
the dial to this position
(depending
on model).Contact a CITR
o Ë n 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.

General information
The airbags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
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;
immediately
after the impact, the
airbags
deflate rapidly, so that they
do not hinder the visibility of the
occupants nor their possible exit
from
the vehicle.-
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 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.

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
.

towbar
We recommend the use of genuine CITRo Ë n 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

n acceleration after the vehicle has
been running for a prolonged period
at
very low speed or at idle, you may,
in
exceptional circumstances, notice
the
emission of water vapour at the

This
water vapour does not

fect on vehicle
handling
or the environment.
Battery
At the start of summer or winter, have your battery checked by a CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
It may be necessary to
check
the thickness of the pads, even
between
services.
Unless
there is a leak on the circuit, a
drop
in the brake fluid level indicates
that
the brake pads are worn.
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the brake disc / drum wear, contact a CITROËN
dealer
.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great or there is a reduction in the
performance
of the system, the parking
brake
should be adjusted, even between
services.
Have
the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified workshop.
