Eco-driving
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit
the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof
b
ars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.
Remove
roof bars and roof racks after use.
At
the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry
out this check in particular:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-
a
t each change of season,
-
a
fter a long period out of use.
Don't
forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have
your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and
o
bserve the schedule of operations recommended by the manufacturer.
When
refuelling, do not continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to a
void
any
over flow.
At
the
wheel
of
your
new
vehicle,
it
is
only
after the first 1 800 miles
(
3 000
kilometres)
that
you
will
see
the
fuel
consumption settle down to
a
consistent
average.

Lost keys
Go to a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's registration document, your personal identification documents and if possible the key code label.
The
CITROËN dealer will be able to look up the key code and the transponder code
r
equired to order a new key.
Remote control
The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock the vehicle, without you being aware of it.
Do
not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control out of range and out of sight of
y
our vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and the remote control would have
t
o be reinitialised.
No
remote control can operate when the key is in the ignition switch, even when the ignition
i
s switched off, except for reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compartment by the emergency services more difficult in an emergency.
As
a safety precaution, never leave children alone in the vehicle, except for a very short
p
eriod.
In
all cases, it is essential to remove the key from the ignition switch when leaving the vehicle.
Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifications to the electronic engine immobiliser system; this could cause m alfunctions.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing of all of the keys in your possession checked by a CITROËN dealer, to ensure that only your keys can be used to open and start the vehicle.Do
not throw the remote control
b
atteries away, they contain metals
w
hich are harmful to the environment.
Take them to an approved collection

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines belo w:
F
T
o obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles
l
ocated at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
a

perate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month
t
o keep it in per fect working order.
F
E
nsure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter

Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine, the i nterior t emperature i s v ery h igh, f irst
v
entilate the passenger compartment for
a
few moments.
Put
the air flow control at a setting high

The
air conditioning system does not
