Daytime running lamps
Special daytime lighting so that the vehicle can
be seen more easily.
The daytime running lamps come on
automatically when starting the motor, if no
other lighting is on.
They cannot be deactivated.Automatic illumination of headlamps
With the main lighting control ring in the AUTO
position, the sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps
come on automatically, without any action by the
driver, when a low level of ambient light is detected.
When the light returns to a sufficient level or the
wipers are switched off, the lighting is switched off
automatically.
The sensor is located at the base of the windscreen.
Automatic illumination of
headlamps
Automatic lighting off
When the lighting stalk is in the
"AUTO" position, if the ignition switch is in
the "LOCK" or "ACC" position or if the key

deactivated:
F
w
ith the ignition off , insert the key in the
passenger airbag deactivation switch A ,
F
t
urn it to the "OFF" position,
F
r
emove the key. This warning lamp comes on in the centre
console when the ignition is on and until the
airbag is reactivated.
To ensure the safety of your child, the
passenger airbag must be deactivated
when you install a rear ward facing child
seat on the front passenger seat.
Other wise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were deployed.
Reactivation
When you remove the child seat, turn
switch A to the "ON" position to reactivate the
airbag and so ensure the safety of your front
passenger in the event of an impact.
The associated warning lamp goes off.
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.
In this case, do not install a child seat
or seat an adult on the front passenger
seat.

Safety

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection
in the event of an accident.
Check that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack in
relation to the child's body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, check that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it
secures the child seat firmly on the seat
of your vehicle. If your passenger seat is
adjustable, move it for ward if necessary.
at t
he rear seats, always leave sufficient
space between the front seat and:
-
a r
ear ward facing child seat,
-
t
he feet of a child seated in a for ward
facing child seat.
For this, move the front seat for ward and if
necessary straighten its backrest.
Advice on child seats
Children at the front
The legislation on carrying a child on the
front passenger seat is specific to each
c o unt r y.
Refer to the legislation in force in
your
country.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag when
a rear ward facing child seat is installed on
the front seat.
Other wise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were
deployed. For optimum installation of a for ward facing
child seat, ensure that the back of the
child seat is as close as possible to the
backrest of the vehicle's seat, or in contact
if possible.
The head restraint must be removed before
installing a child seat with a backrest on
the passenger seat. Ensure that the head
restraint is stowed or attached securely so
that it is not thrown around the vehicle in
the event of sharp braking.
Refit the head restraint as soon as the child
seat is removed.
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
CITROËN recommends the use of a
booster seat which has a back, fitted with a
seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
-
o
ne or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
-
a c
hild or an animal in a vehicle which
is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,
-
t
he keys within reach of children inside
the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the doors,
use the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

USING THE TELEPHONE
A virtual keypad is displayed on the screen: choose
a 4 digit code then confirm with OK.
A message is displayed on the screen of the
telephone: enter the same code and confirm. A message appears in the screen to confirm the result of the
connection.
Pairing can also be initiated from the telephone by searching for
detected Bluetooth devices. Accept the connection to the telephone.
If pairing fails, try again; the number of attempts is not limited. The directory and the calls list can be accessed after the
synchronisation period (if the telephone is compatible).
Automatic connection must be configured in the telephone to allow
the connection each time the vehicle is started.
In some cases, the Bluetooth address of the telephone may appear
instead of the name of the telephone.
