OVERVIEW

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
System which automatically checks the
pressure of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressures on the
four tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the
four wheel speed sensors with reference
values, which must be reinitialised every
time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a
wheel changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of
one or more tyres.
The under-inflation detection system

does not replace the vigilance or the
responsibility of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as before
a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances and
causes premature tyre wear, particularly
under arduous condition (high loading, high
speed, long journey).
Driving with under-inflated tyres increases
fuel consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for


your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label.
See the "Identification markings" section.
Tyre pressures should be checked when the
tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour
or after a journey of less than 6 miles
(10 km) at moderate speeds).
Otherwise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to the
pressures shown on the label.
Under-inflation alert
This is given by fixed
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied the display of a
message,depending on equipment.
F
Reduce speed immediately

, avoid
excessive steering movements and
sudden braking
F
Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to


do so.
The loss of pressure detected does
not always cause visible bulging of the
tyre. Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual
check.
F
In the event of a puncture, use the


temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment),
or
F
if you have a compressor

, such as the
one in the temporary puncture repair kit,
check the pressures of the four tyres
when cold,
or
F
if it is not possible to make this check


immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
The alert is maintained until the system
is reinitialised.
Driving safely

11 7
Reinitialisation
It is necessary to reinitialise the system
every time one or more tyre pressure is
adjusted, and after changing one or more
wheels.Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres
are correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line with the recommendations on the tyre
pressure label.
The under-inflation detection system does
not give a warning if a pressure is incorrect
at the time of reinitialisation. F
With the ignition on and the vehicle


stationary, press this button for about
3
seconds then release it, an audible
signal confirms the reinitialisation.
The under-inflation alert is only
dependable if the system has been
reinitialised with all four tyres inflated to the
correct pressures.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains. The flashing and then fixed
illumination of the under-inflation
warning lamp accompanied by the
display of a message, depending
on equipment, indicates a fault
with the system.
Before doing anything to the system,


the pressures of the four tyres must be
checked and the system reinitialised.
Operating fault
In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
tyres is no longer assured.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.

SAFETY
Driving safely

Good practice
The driver must ensure that all passengers
fasten their seat belts correctly.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel
which automatically adjusts the length of the
strap to your size. The seat belt is reeled in
automatically when not in use.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat, ensure that
the seat belt has reeled in correctly into its
compartment and that the buckle is ready to
accommodate the tongue.The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt against the body of the occupants.
The equipment fitted to these seat belts is
operational when the ignition is switched on.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in the
event of a collision or emergency braking or
if the vehicle rolls over.
The airbag warning lamp comes
on if the pretensioners are
deployed. Contact a CITR
o Ë n or
a qualified workshop.
Depending on the nature and seriousness
of any impact, the pretensioning device may
be deployed before and independently of
inflation of the airbags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
The deployment of the pretensioners 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 order to be effective, a seat belt must:
-

restrain one person only
,
-

must not be twisted, check by pulling in

front of you with an even movement,
-

be tightened as close to the body as

possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should be
positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low as
possible on the pelvis.
Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as
they will not fulfil their role completely. If the
seats are fitted with armrests, the lap part of
the seat belt should always pass under the
armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap firmly. Recommendations for children:
-
use a suitable child seat if the passenger
is less than 12 years old or less than one
and a half metres tall,
-

never allow a child to travel on your lap,

even with the seat belt fastened.
For more information on child seats,
refer to the "Safety - Children on
board" section.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all work on your vehicle,
refer to a qualified workshop that has the
skills an equipment needed, all of which can
be provided by a CITR
o Ë n dealer.
Have the seat belts checked regularly (even
after a minor impact) by a CITR
o Ë n dealer
or a qualified workshop: they must not show
any signs of wear, cutting or fraying and they
must not be transformed or modified.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy


water or a textile cleaning product,
available from CITR
o Ë n dealers.

reached within 5 minutes:
●

disconnect the compressor from the
valve and from the 12 V accessory
socket,
●


move the vehicl
e forward by
approximately 10 metres to distribute the
filling fluid inside the tyre,
●

then repeat the inflation operation
.
-

If a pressure of at least
1.8 bars is not
reached within 10 minutes:
●

stop the repair p
rocedure; the tyre has
suffered too much damage and cannot
be repaired,
●

contact a CITRO
ËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
-

If the tyre has been inflated to a pressure

of 3 bars, set off again immediately.
After driving for approximately 10 minutes,
stop and check the pressure of the tyre
again.
Adjust the tyre pressure if necessary and
contact a CITR
o Ë n dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
You must inform the technician that you
have repaired the tyre using the temporary
puncture repair kit and show him its
instructions.
Checking and correcting the pressure
For checking and correcting the pressure of
a tyre, use the compressor as follows:
-

disconnect the pipe
I,
-

connect it directly to the tyre valve,
The cartridge will then be connected to


the compressor and the sealant will not be
injected.
Replacing the repair cartridge
disconnect the pipe I .
T urn the empty cartridge anticlockwise and
lift it.
Insert the new cartridge and turn it
clockwise.
Reconnect the pipe I and connect the pipe B
to its location.
The repair cartridge contains ethylene-
glycol, a product which is harmful if
swallowed and which causes irritation to the
eyes.
