Lost keys

identification documents and if possible the key code label.
The CITROËN dealer will be able to look up the key code and the transponder code
required to order a new key.
Remote control / Electronic key
These high frequency devices are sensitive systems; do not handle them while in your
pocket as there is a risk of unlocking the vehicle, without you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control or electronic key out of range
and out of sight of your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and the remote
control would have to be reinitialised.
Locking the vehicle
As a safety precaution, never leave children alone in the vehicle, except for a very short
period.
In all cases, it is essential to remove the key from the ignition switch, or take the electronic
key with you when leaving the vehicle.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing of all of the keys in your possession checked by a CITROËN dealer, to
ensure that only your keys can be used to open and start the vehicle.

* Depending on version. Your vehicle may be fitted with an electrically operated fabric roof.
Electric fabric roof*
Electric opening and closing
The roof is opened and closed by pressing
the control at the interior lamp, in the opening
direction 1 and in the closing direction 2 .
In order to maintain the state of charge of
the battery, it is recommended that the roof
be operated with the engine running .
operation of the roof is possible with
the ignition on and when driving.
Operation of the roof could cause
serious injuries: before operating the
roof, ensure that no occupant of the
vehicle or person outside the vehicle
could be subject to any risk related
to the movement of the roof and that
no object could inter fere with the
operation. During operation of the roof with just
the ignition on, starting the engine may
cause the roof to stop, depending on
the state of charge of the battery. To
have the roof continue the operation,
operate the control again after the
engine has started.
The asymmetric shape of the opening
control avoids closing the roof by
mistake.

Stop & Start (e-VTi 68 engine)
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
-
w
hen stationary, in neutral, and you
release the clutch pedal.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the button. For smoother operation, during
parking manoeuvres STOP mode is
not available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
vehicle's systems, such as for example,
braking, power steering...
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked principally when:
- t he driver's door is open,
-
t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-
t
he engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
-
d
emisting is active,
-
s
ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
vehicle stopped on a steep gradient, high
altitude...) where the engine is needed to
assure control of a system.
The Stop & Start
system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
The
engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
Stop & Start time counters
A partial time counter counts the periods in
STOP mode during a journey.
It is displayed in the trip computer once the
Stop & Start acts.
Press one of the screen management buttons
to return to the previous display.
A global time counter counts the periods in
STOP mode since the last reset.
When it is displayed, press one of the screen
management buttons to reset the counter.
