on the side of the vehicle or if the
vehicle rolls over, the airbag may not be
deployed.
In the event of a rear or front collision,
the curtain airbag is not deployed.

time as the corresponding lateral airbag in the
event of a serious side impact applied to all or
part of the side impact zone B
, perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.

instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
instrument panel screen, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to have
the system checked. The airbags may no longer
be deployed in the event of a serious impact.

the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries without
disconnecting the terminals first.

SOLUTION



Certain traffi c jams
along the route are not
indicated in real time. On starting, it is several minutes before the system begins to receive the
traffi c information. Wait until the traffi c information is being received
correctly (display of the traffi c information icons on
the map).
The fi lters are too restrictive. Modify the "Geographic fi lter" settings.
In certain countries, only major routes (motorways…) are listed for the
traffi c information. This phenomenon is normal. The system is
dependent on the traffi c information available.
The altitude is not
displayed. On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes to
receive more than 4 satellites correctly. Wait until the system has started up completely.
Check that there is a GPS coverage of at least
4 satellites (long press on the SETUP button, then
select "GPS coverage").
Depending on the geographical environment (tunnel…) or the weather,
the conditions of reception of the GPS signal may vary. This phenomenon is normal. The system
is dependent on the GPS signal reception
conditions.
I am unable to connect
my Bluetooth telephone. The telephone's Bluetooth function may be switched off or the telephone
may not be visible.

- Check that your telephone's Bluetooth
function is switched on.

- Check in the telephone settings that it is
"visible to all".
The Bluetooth telephone is not compatible with the system. You can check the compatibility of your telephone
on www.citroen.co.uk (services)
The volume of the
telephone connected
in Bluetooth mode is
inaudible. The volume depends both on the system and on the telephone. Increase the volume of the audio system, to
maximum if required, and increase the volume of
the telephone if necessary.
The ambient noise level has an infl uence on the quality of telephone
communication. Reduce the ambient noise level (close the windows,
reduce the booster fan speed, slow down, …).
