SAFETY
Airbags
Good practice
If your vehicle is fitted with front, lateral
and curtain airbags, in order for these to
be fully effective, observe the following
safety rules:
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (child, animal,
object...).
This could hamper the operation of the
airbags or injure the occupants.
All work on the airbag systems must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
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.
Smoke as little as possible; 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.
Lateral airbags
Fit only approved covers on the front seats,
compatible with the deployment of lateral
airbags. For information on the range of
covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a
CITROËN dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the front seat
backs. This could cause injury to the chest
or arms when 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 pillars or
the roof. This could cause injury to the head
when the curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the bolts from the grab
handles installed on the roof, they play a
part in securing the curtain airbags.

ROOF CARRYING SYSTEMS
Refer to the "Technical data -
"Dimensions" section for more
information on the length (L1 to L4) and the
height (H1 to H3) of the vehicle. Maximum load on the roof, evenly
distributed: 150 kg, for all versions,
within the vehicle's weight limit (Gross
Vehicle Weight).
For reasons of safety and to avoid damaging
the roof, it is essential to use a carrying
system (roof bars or roof rack) that is
approved for your vehicle.
Roof bars can only be fitted to H1 height
van, combi and minibus versions. On a
minibus, check for the presence of roof air
conditioning units.
TOWBAR WITH QUICKLY
DETACHABLE TOW BALL
This tow ball can be fitted and removed
quickly and easily without the use of tools.
When not towing a trailer, remove the
quickly-detachable tow ball before driving. Never exceed the maximum authorised
weight for the vehicle plus trailer
(Gross Train Weight - GTW).
For information on the maximum
trailer weight and the recommended
nose weight, refer to the "Technical data -
Weights" section. The carrying system must always be
secured to the fitting points provided on the
vehicle's roof: 6, 8 or 10, depending on the
wheelbase of the vehicle.
Observe the instructions for fitting and use
provided with the carrying system.
Observe in full the legal requirements
related to carrying outsized loads.

Installation of radiocommunication
transmitters
You are advised to contact a CITROËN
dealer before installing accessory
radiocommunication transmitters with
external aerial on your vehicle.
CITROËN dealers can advise you on
the specifications (frequency waveband,
maximum output power, aerial position,
specific installation conditions) of the
transmitters which can be fitted, in
accordance with the Vehicle Electromagnetic
Compatibility Directive (2004/104/EC).
The fitting of electrical equipment or
accessories which are not listed by
CITROËN may result in the failure of your
vehicle's electronic system.
We request that you take note of this point
and recommend that you contact a dealer
to be shown the range of recommended
equipment and accessories.
Depending on the country in which the
vehicle is sold or operated, it may be
compulsory to have a high visibility vest,
warning triangle, replacement bulbs and
breathalyzer in the vehicle.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fixings are
positioned correctly,
- never fit one mat on top of another.

VOICE COMMANDS
Information - Using the system
To ensure that your voice commands are always recognised by the system, we recommend that you follow the advice below:
- speak with a normal tone of voice,
- before speaking, always wait for the "beep" (audible signal),
- the system is able to recognise the voice commands delivered, independent off gender, tone and infl exion of the voice of the person speaking,
- keep the noise level inside the vehicle as low as possible,
- before speaking a voice command, ask other passengers not to speak. As the system recognizes voice commands whatever is said, when more than one person speaks at the same time, it is possible that the system will recognise commands different or additional to the one intended,
- for best operation, it is recommended that the windows and opening roof (for versions/markets where it is available) be closed to avoid interference from extraneous noises.
Instead of touching the screen, you can use your voice to issue commands to the system.
Steering mounted controls
This button switches on the "Telephone" voice recognition mode, which makes it possible to start calls, view the log of recent/received/made, display contacts, etc.
Every time a button is pressed, a "beep" (audible signal) is produced \
and the screen displays a page of suggestions asking the user to speak a command.
This button switches on the "Radio/Media" voice recognition mode, which makes it possible to tune to a specifi c radio station radio or specifi c AF/FM radio frequency, play a track or an album on a USB memory stick/iPod/MP3 CD.
Voice interaction can be quickly used if these buttons are pressed during a voice message from the system, it allows a voice command to be issued directly.
For example, if the system is speaking a voice help message and if you want to know the command to give the system, by pressing these buttons, the voice message is interrupted and the desired voice command can be spoken directly (so avoiding the need to listed to the complete voice help message).
When the system is waiting for a voice command from the user, pressing these buttons closes the voice session.
