ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
Children
at the front
The legislation on carrying a child on the
front passenger seat is specific to each
country. Refer to the legislation in force in
your country.
Deactivate the passenger's 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
deployed.
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
Check that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat, as this could
destabilise the seat.
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.
For the installation of a child seat using
the seat belt, ensure that the seat belt is
well tensioned on the child seat and that
it is holding the child seat firmly against
the vehicle's seat. If the passenger seat is
adjustable, move it forward if necessary.
Installing a booster seat
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.
CITR
o Ë n recommends the use of a booster
seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt
guide at shoulder level.
For the optimum installation of a "forward
facing" child seat, ensure that the back of
the child seat is as close as possible to the
backrest of the vehicle's seat, or in contact
if possible.
The head restraint must be removed before
installing a child seat with a backrest on the
passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stowed or
attached securely so that it is not thrown
around the vehicle in the event of sharp
braking.
Refit the head restraint as soon as the child
seat is removed.
As a safety precaution, never leave:
-
one or more children alone and
unsupervised 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.
To prevent accidental opening of the doors,
use the "Child Lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds to the rear windows.
a
t the rear, always leave sufficient space
between the front seat and:
-
a "rearward facing" child seat,
-
the feet of a child seated in a "forward
facing" child seat.
For this, move the front seat forward and, if
necessary, straighten its backrest as well.

FILLING WITH FUEL
Capacity of the fuel tank: approximately 45 litres.
Low fuel level
When the minimum fuel tank level
is reached, this warning lamp
comes on. When it first comes on,
you have approximately 6 litres
of fuel remaining. Refuel without delay to
avoid running out of fuel.
a
n arrow in the instrument panel indicates
which side of the vehicle the filler flap is
located.
Refuelling must be done with the engine
off.
-
Open the fuel filler flap.
-
Hold the filler cap with one hand.
-
With the other hand, insert the key
, then
turn it a third of a turn.
-
Remove the filler cap and hang it on the
hook, located on the inside of the filler
flap.
FUEL CUT-OFF
In the event of a serious collision, a device
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the
engine and the vehicle's electrical supply.
It also automatically unlocks the doors
and switches on of the courtesy lamps.
A
message appears in the instrument panel
screen according to version.
Turn the key to the STOP position to prevent
discharging of the battery.
Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel
outside the vehicle.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key. When the fuel filler flap is open, a
safety system prevents sliding of the
side door (Combi).
a label af
fixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
Opening the filler cap may cause a noise
resulting from the inrush of air. This vacuum
is quite normal and results from the sealing
of the fuel system.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle; this could
cause malfunctions.
After filling the fuel tank, lock the filler cap
and close the flap.
Fuel
154
batteries contain harmful substances
such as sulphuric acid and lead. They
must be disposed of in accordance with the
law and must not, in any circumstances be
discarded with household waste.
Take used batteries to an authorised waste
disposal site.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery
if the vehicle is not to be used for a
period of more than one month. To do
this on models with Stop & Start:
-
press the release button
E
to
disconnect connector F ,
-
disconnect connector
F
of check
sensor G.
The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a 12 V lead-acid battery with
special technology and specification;
the involvement of a CITR
o
Ë
n
dealer or
a qualified workshop is essential when
replacing or disconnecting the battery.
Failure to observe this recommendation may
cause premature wear of the battery.
After refitting the battery by a
CITR
o
Ë
n
dealer or a qualified
workshop, the Stop & Start system will
only be active after a continuous period of
immobilisation of the vehicle, a period which
depends on the climatic conditions and the
state of charge of the battery (up to about
8 hours). Before charging
The charging operation must be carried
out in a ventilated area away from naked
flames or any possible sources of sparks to
eliminate the risks of explosion and fire.
Do not attempt to charge a frozen battery: it
must first be thawed to eliminate the risks of
explosion. If the battery has frozen, before
charging it have it checked by a specialist
who will check that the internal components
have not been damaged and that the
container is not cracked, which could mean
that there is a risk of a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.
Before disconnecting
n
ever disconnect a terminal when the
engine is running.
Before disconnecting the battery, you must
wait for 2 minutes after switching off the
ignition.
Close the windows and doors before
disconnecting the battery. After reconnecting
a
fter every reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute
before starting to allow the electronic
systems to be initialised. If difficulties are
experienced after this, contact a CITR o Ë n
dealer or a qualified workshop.
If the battery has been disconnected
for some time, it may be necessary to
reinitialise the following functions:
-
the display screen settings (date, time,
language, distance and temperature
units),
-
the radio stations,
-
the central locking.
Some settings are cleared and must be
reprogrammed. Contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Never remove the check sensor G
from the
negative battery terminal H , except when
replacing the battery.
