Snow chains
Original tyre sizeMaximum link size
195 / 60 R15 9 mm
195 / 55 R16 9 mm
205 / 45 R17 7 mm
For more information on snow chains,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when
braking.
The snow chains must be fitted only
to the front wheels. They must never
be fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
chains and the maximum running speed
authorised.
Advice on installation
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
on the side of the road.
F

A
pply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks to prevent movement of your
vehicle.
F

F
it the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
F

M
ove off gently and drive for a few
moments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50


km/h).
F

S
top your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted
with alloy wheels, check that no part of
the chain or its fixings is in contact with
the wheel rim.
All original tyre sizes (15", 16", 17") can be
fitted with chains.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face.

Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as the air conditioning,
the heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.
Energy economy mode
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automatically
the next time the vehicle is driven.
F
I
n order to resume the use of these
functions immediately, start the engine and
let it run for a few minutes.
The time available to you will then be double
the period for which the engine is left running.
However, this period will always be between
five and thirty minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once this period has elapsed, a message
appears on the multifunction screen indicating
that the vehicle has switched to economy mode
and the active functions are put on standby.
A flat battery prevents the engine from
starting (refer to the corresponding
paragraph).
If the telephone is being used at the
same time on the eMyWay audio
navigation system, it will be interrupted
after 10 minutes.
System which manages the period of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of
charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio equipment,
windscreen
wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum combined period of
thirty

minutes.
This period may be greatly reduced if the battery is not fully charged.
