Installing electrical
accessories
Your vehicle's electrical system is
designed to operate with standard or
optional equipment.
Before installing other electrical
equipment or accessories on your
vehicle, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
CITROËN will not accept responsibility
for the cost incurred in repairing your
vehicle or for rectifying malfunctions
resulting from the installation of
accessories not supplied and not
recommended by CITROËN and
not installed in accordance with its
instructions, in particular when the
combined consumption of all of the
additional equipment connected
exceeds 10 milliamperes.
Before changing a fuse:
F
t
he cause of the failure must be identified
and rectified,
F
a
ll electrical consumers must be switched
of f,
F
t
he vehicle must be immobilised with the
ignition off,
F
i
dentify the failed fuse using the tables and
layout drawings in the following pages.
Changing a fuse
good Failed
The replacement of a fuse not shown in
the tables below may cause a serious
malfunction of your vehicle. Contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop. Tw e e z e r
To replace a fuse, you must:
F
u
se the special tweezer to extract the fuse
from its housing and check the condition of
its filament
F
a
lways replace the failed fuse with a fuse
of the same rating (same colour); using a
different rating could cause faults (risk of
f i r e).
If the fuse fails again soon after replacement,
have the vehicle's electrical system checked by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

Energy economy modeSystem which manages the period of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of
charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio equipment, windscreen
wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum combined period of
thirty
m
inutes.
This period may be greatly reduced if
the battery is not fully charged.
A flat battery prevents the engine from
starting (refer to the corresponding
paragraph).
If the telephone is being used at the
same time on the navigation system,
it will be interrupted after 10 minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once this period has elapsed, a message
appears in the screen indicating that the
vehicle has switched to economy mode and the
active functions are put on standby.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automatically
the next time the vehicle is driven.
F
I
n order to resume the use of these
functions immediately, start the engine and
let it run for a few minutes.
The time available to you will then be double
the period for which the engine is left running.
However, this period will always be between
five and thirty minutes.
Load reduction modeSystem which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as the air conditioning,
the heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.

Checks
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Oil filter
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a specific 12 V lead-acid
battery with special technology and
specification. The involvement of
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop is essential when replacing
or disconnecting the battery.
12 V battery
When carrying out work on the battery, refer
to the "12 V battery" section for details of the
precautions to be taken before disconnecting
the battery and following its reconnection.
The battery does not require any maintenance.
However, check that the terminals are clean
and correctly tightened, particularly in summer
and winter.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g. city driving), replace them twice as often
if necessary
.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.
Checks
Emergency or assistance call
If an impact is detected by the airbag
control unit, and independently of
the deployment of any airbags, an
emergency call is made automatically.
Localised Emergency Call
In an emergency, press this
button for more than 2 seconds.
Flashing of the green indicator
lamp and a voice message
confirm that the call has
been made to the "Localised
Emergency Call"* centre.
Pressing this button again immediately cancels
the call.
The green indicator lamp goes off.
At any time, pressing this button for more than
8 seconds cancels the call.
The green indicator lamp remains on (without
flashing) when communication is established.
It goes off at the end of the call.
This call is dealt with by the "Localised
Emergency Call" centre, which receives
locating information from the vehicle and
can send a detailed alert to the appropriate
emergency services.
In countries in which a centre is not
operational, or when the locating service
has been expressly declined, the call is dealt
with directly by the emergency services (112)
without the vehicle location. *

Localised Assistance Call
If you purchased your vehicle outside
the CITROËN dealer network, we
invite you to have a dealer check the
configuration of these services and, if
desired, modified to suit your wishes.
In a multi-lingual country, configuration
is possible in the official national
language of your choice.
For technical reasons, particularly
to improve the quality of Telematic
services to customers, the
manufacturer reserves the right to
carry out updates to the vehicle’s
on-board telematic system.
Press this button for more than
2 seconds to request assistance
if the vehicle breaks down.
A voice message confirms that
the call has been started*.
Pressing this button again immediately cancels
the request.
The cancellation is confirmed by a voice
message.Operation of the system
When the ignition is switched on,
the green indicator lamp comes
on for 3 seconds indicating that
the system is operating correctly.
The fault with the system does not
prevent the vehicle being driven.
The orange indicator lamp is on fixed: the back-
up battery should be replaced.
In both cases, the emergency and assistance
calls service may not work.
Contact a qualified repairer as soon as
possible.
The orange indicator lamp
flashes then goes off: the system
has a fault.
