Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the
vehicle; place the heaviest items in
the bottom of the boot, as close as
possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the
vehicle and reduce wind resistance
(roof bars, roof rack, bicycle
carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in
preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks
after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow
tyres and refi t your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly,
when cold, referring to the label in the
door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the
tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter,
passenger compartment fi lter...) and
observe the schedule of operations
recommended in the maintenance and
warranty guide. When refuelling, do not continue after
the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overfl ow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.

EMISSIONS CONTROLS
EOBD (European On Board
Diagnosis) is a diagnostics
system which complies with,
among others, the standards
concerning authorised
emissions of:
- CO (carbon monoxide),
- HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
- NOx (nitrous oxides) or particles, detected by oxygen sensors placed
upstream and downstream of the
catalytic converters.
The driver is warned of any malfunction
of this emission control system by the
illumination of this specifi c warning
lamp in the instrument panel.
There is a risk of damage to the
catalytic converter. Have it checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
System which
automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres
while driving.
The system
continuously monitors
the pressures of the four tyres, as soon
as the vehicle is moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the
valve of each tyre (except the spare
wheel).
The system triggers an alert if a drop
in pressure is detected in one or more
tyres.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is an aid to driving which
does not replace the need for
the driver to be vigilant or to drive
responsibly. This system does not avoid the
need to check the tyre pressures
regularly (including the spare
wheel) and before a long journey.
Driving with under-infl ated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey).
Driving with under-infl ated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle
can be found on the tyre pressure
label (see the "Identifi cation
markings" section).
The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.

READY TO GO
The alert is maintained until
the tyre or tyres concerned is
reinfl ated, repaired or replaced.
The spare wheel (space-saver
type or a steel rim) does not have a
sensor.
Operating fault
Under-inflation alert
The loss of pressure detected
does not always lead to visible
deformation of the tyre. Do not rely
on just a visual check.
The alert is given by the fi xed
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal,
and depending on equipment, the
display of a message. The fl ashing and then
fi xed illumination of the
under-infl ation warning
lamp accompanied by the
illumination of the "service" warning
lamp, and depending on equipment,
the display of a message indicates a
fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre
pressures is not assured.
In the event of a problem on one of
the tyres, the symbol or the message
appears, according to equipment, to
identify it.
- Reduce speed, avoid sudden
steering movements or harsh brake
applications.
- Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
- In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit
or the spare wheel (according to
equipment),
or
- if you have a compressor, the one in the temporary puncture repair
kit for example, check the four tyre
pressures when cold,
or
- if it is not possible to check the tyre pressures at the time, drive
carefully at reduced speed. This alert is also displayed when
one or more wheels is not fi tted
with a sensor (for example, a
space-saver or steel spare wheel).
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to have the system checked
or, following the repair of a puncture, to
have the original wheel, equipped with
a sensor, refi tted.

Regardless of the audio and telematic
equipment offered on the market, the
technical constraints associated with
the fi tting of equipment of these product
groups mean that the special features

Changing a wheel
144
The temporary tyre repair kit consists
of a compressor and a bottle
(containing a sealant).
Using the kit
1. Tick the defl ated wheel on the speed limitation sticker then affi x
the sticker to the vehicle's steering
wheel to remind you that a wheel is
in temporary use.
2. Clip the bottle 1 on the
compressor 2 .
3. Connect the bottle 1 to the valve of
the tyre to be repaired.
4. Take care to unwind the compressor pipe before connecting
it to the bottle.
5. Connect the power lead to one of the vehicle's 12V sockets.
6. Switch on the compressor by pressing button A until the tyre
pressure reaches 2.0 bars. If this
pressure cannot be reached, the
tyre cannot be repaired.
7. Remove and store the compressor.
8. Drive immediately, for a few miles (kilometres), at reduced speed,
to fi ll the puncture.
9. Adjust the pressure using the compressor in accordance with the
recommendation for the vehicle and
check that the leak is fi lled correctly
(no further loss of pressure).
10. Drive at reduced speed (50 mph [80 km/h]). The tyre must be
examined and repaired by a
specialist as soon as possible. After use, the bottle can be stored in
a plastic bag, supplied in the kit, to
avoid staining your vehicle with traces
of fl uid.
Warning: the bottle of gel contains
ethylene-glycol, a product which
is harmful if swallowed and which
causes irritation to the eyes.
Keep it out of reach of children.
After use, do not discard the bottle into
the environment, take it to a CITROËN
dealer or to an specialised waste
disposal site.
Replacement bottles of sealant are
available from CITROËN dealers.
PUNCTURE REPAIR KIT
The kit is located in one of the two
storage compartments located under
the front seats.
Vehicles supplied with a temporary
puncture repair kit do not have a spare
wheel or tooling (jack, wheelbrace, ...).

QUICK HELP

1. PARKING THE VEHICLE
- The occupants must get out of the vehicle and wait in a safe location.
- If possible, park the vehicle on level, stable and non-slippery
ground.
- Apply the parking brake, switch off the ignition and engage fi rst or
reverse gear. - If available, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the
one to be changed.
If the vehicle is fi tted with a towbar,
it is sometimes necessary to raise
the vehicle slightly to make it easier
to remove the spare wheel from its
carrier.
On certain types of ground and/
or if considerable loads are being
transported, call a CITROËN dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.
CHANGING A WHEEL
2. TOOLS
- The tools are stowed in a storage compartment located under the left
hand front seat. If necessary, move
the seat to access the storage
compartment from the rear.
- Unscrew the nut then take out the jack and the wheelbrace.
1. Wheelbrace.
2. Jack.
3. Towing eye.
4. Chock.
The jack and the tool kit are specifi c to
your vehicle. Do not use them for other
purposes.

3. SPARE WHEEL
- Unscrew the bolt using the wheelbrace until the carrier is
lowered fully.
- Open the rear doors to gain access
to the spare wheel. - Detach the carrier from the hook
and place the spare wheel near the
wheel to be changed.
