2015 Citroen C3 RHD belt

119
For the airbags to be fully
effective, observe the following
safety rules:
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object...). This could hamper the operation of
the airbags or injure the occupants.
af
ter an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be
carried out by a CITR
oËn

dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned
are observed, a risk of injury or of minor
burns to the head, chest or arms when an
airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. The
bag inflates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then deflates within the same
time discharging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part
of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard.
do n

ot smoke as deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of injury from a
cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.
Do not fit or attach anything to the steering wheel or dashboard, this could cause injuries with
deployment of the airbags.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment the lateral airbags.
For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your vehicle, you can contact a
CITR
oËn

dealer.
Refer to the "
ac

cessories" section.
do n

ot fix or attach anything to the seat backs (clothing...). This could cause injury to the chest
or arms if the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.
Curtain airbags
do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This could cause injury to the head if the curtain
airbag is deployed.
If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the grab handles installed on the roof, they play a part
in securing the curtain airbags.

Safety

135
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.
Operation
- with a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h), when you put the gear
lever into neutral, and you release the
clutch pedal.
-

w
ith a 5 or 6-speed electronic gearbox ,
when stationary or at speeds below 5 mph
(8 km/h) (depending on version), when
you press the brake pedal or put the gear
selector in position N .
Going into engine STOP
mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:
a

time counter calculates the sum
of the periods in ST
oP m

ode
during a journey. It rests itself
to zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the key.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- t he driver's door is open,
-

t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-

t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start using
t h e key,
-

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,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
The "ECO" warning lamp flashes for
a few seconds then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Stop & Start
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key. For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, ST
oP m
ode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
ST
oP m
ode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...

Deactivation
at any time, press the "ECO OFF" switch to
deactivate the system.
This is confirmed by the switch warning lamp
coming on accompanied by a message in the
screen.
The "ECO" warning lamp flashes for
a few seconds, then goes off.

With a manual gearbox in ST
oP m

ode,
if you engage a gear without fully
depressing the clutch pedal, a message
is displayed asking you to fully depress
the clutch pedal so that the engine can
restart. If the system has been deactivated
in ST
