MONITORING

ACCESS
82














Lost keys

Go to a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's registration document, your
personal identifi cation 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.







Do not throw the remote con-
trol batteries away, they contain
metals which are harmful to the
environment.
Take them to an approved col-
lection point.

Remote control

The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate
it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock the
vehicle, without you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control 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.
No remote control can operate when the key is in the ignition switch, even
when the ignition is switched off, except for reinitialisation.


Locking the vehicle

Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compart-
ment by the emergency services more diffi cult in an emergency.
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 when
leaving the vehicle.


Anti-theft protection

Do not make any modifi cations to the electronic engine immobiliser system;
this could cause malfunctions.


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.

CHILD SAFETY
132
For optimum installation of the "for-
ward-facing" child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is as close
as possible to the backrest of the ve-
hicle's seat, in contact if possible.
You mst remove the head restraint
before installing a child seat with
backrest to a passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is
stored or attached securely to pre-
vent it from being thrown around the
vehicle in the event of sharp brak-
ing. Refi t the head restraint when the
child seat is removed.







ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS

Installing a booster seat

Children at the front


The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child's protection in the event of an
accident.
Ensure 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 relative to the child's body to a
minimum, even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the
seat belt, ensure that the seat belt is
tightened correctly on the child seat
and that it secures the child seat fi rm-
ly on the seat of your vehicle. If your
passenger seat is adjustable, move it
forwards if necessary.

The legislation on carrying children on
the front passenger seat is specifi c to
each country. Refer to the legislation
in force in your country.
Deactivate the passenger airbag
when a "rearward-facing" child seat
is installed on the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were to infl ate.

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, fi t-
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:


- a child or children alone and un-
supervised in a vehicle,

- a child or an animal in a vehicle
which is exposed to the sun, with
the windows closed,

- the keys within reach of children
inside the vehicle.
At rear seating positions, always
leave suffi cient space between the
front seat and:


- a "rearwards facing" child seat,

- the child's feet for a child seat fi t-
ted "forwards facing".
To do this, move the front seat for-
wards and, if necessary, move its
backrest into the upright position. To prevent accidental opening of the
doors and rear windows, use the
"Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear win-
dows by more than one third.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, fi t side blinds on the
rear windows.

CHILD SAFETY

ELECTRIC CHILD LOCK

Remote control system to prevent
opening of the rear doors using their in-
terior controls and use of the rear elec-
tric windows.
The control is located on the dash-
board, driver's side.




The indicator lamp in the button comes
on, accompanied by a message in the
screen.
This indicator lamp remains on until the
child lock is switched off.
Switching on
Switching off



Press this button again.
The indicator lamp on button A
goes
off, accompanied by a message in the
screen.
This indicator lamp remains on while
child lock is switched on.
Any other status of the indicator lamp
indicates a fault with the electric child
lock. Have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

This system is independent and
in no circumstances does it take
the place of the central locking
control.
Check the status of the child lock
each time you switch on the igni-
tion.
Always remove the key from the
ignition when leaving the vehi-
cle, even for a short time.
In the event of a serious impact,
the electric child lock is switched
off automatically to permit the
exit of the rear passengers.

SAFETY

The driver must ensure that passen-
gers use the seat belts correctly and
that they are all restrained securely
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt
buckles as they will not fulfi l their role
fully.
The seat belts are fi tted with an inertia
reel permitting automatic adjustment
of the length of the strap to your size.
The seat belt is stowed automatically
when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in
the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an au-
tomatic locking device which comes
into operation in the event of a col-
lision, emergency braking or if the
vehicle rolls over. You can release
the device by pulling fi rmly on the
strap and releasing it so that it reels
in slightly. In order to be effective, a seat belt
must:


- be tightened as close to the body
as possible,

- be pulled in front of you with a
smooth movement, checking that
it does not twist,

-
be used to restrain only one person,


- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,


- not be converted or modifi ed to
avoid affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all repairs on your ve-
hicle, go to a qualifi ed workshop with
the skills and equipment needed,
which a CITROËN dealer is able to
provide.
Have your seat belts checked regu-
larly by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop, particularly if the
straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by CITROËN dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and reeled in correctly.
Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to se-
cure more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your
lap.

In the event of an impact

Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impact
, the pre-
tensioning device may be deployed
before and independently of the
airbags. Deployment of the preten-
sioners is accompanied by a slight
discharge of harmless smoke and
a noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in
the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
