Welcome
This document describes the special features relating to the presentation and use of your DS 3 CABRIO. Refer to the DS 3 owner's handbook for all other descriptions and specifications, and also to maintenance and warranty guide for servicing information for your vehicle.
15Practical information
Recommendations on the care of your vehicle
Remove bird droppings or tree resins as their acidity may damage the roof.
To avoid damaging the roof, never use a high pressure jet wash.
Never use chemical products, detergents, stain removers, solvents, alcohol, petrol, ... to clean the roof.
The general recommendations on the care of your vehicle are given in the maintenance and warranty guide.
Allow the vehicle to dry in a shaded area and avoid direct exposure to the sun.
We recommend that you wash your vehicle in an automatic roller car wash.
To remove marks, sponge them (but never rub them) using soapy water, then immediately rinse with clean water.
To waterproof the roof, use only special waterproofing products for fabric roofs.
Soft top
Before washing the soft top, first remove as much dirt as possible from the sur face using a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.
For the regular maintenance of the soft top and to conserve its original appearance, we recommend an ecological "Fly remover - Soft top roof cleaner" from the "TECHNATURE" range. To obtain this product go to a CITROËN dealer.
Aero-acoustic deflector
We recommend that you clean the aero-acoustic defector with care using a soft brush.
2Driving
Moving off
If position N
is selected inadvertently
while driving, allow the engine to
return to idle then select position D
to
accelerate.
If the ambient temperature is below
-23°C, the engine should be left at idle
for four minutes, to ensure the correct
operation and life of the engine and
gearbox.
When the engine is running at idle, with
the brakes released, if position R
, D
or
M
is selected, the vehicle moves even
without the accelerator being pressed.
When the engine is running, never
leave children in the vehicle without
supervision.
When carrying out maintenance with
the engine running, apply the parking
brake and select position P
.
)
Apply the parking brake.
)
Select position P
or N
.
)
Start the engine.
If these conditions are not met, there is an
audible signal, accompanied by the display of
an warning message.
)
With the engine running, press the brake
pedal.
)
Release the parking brake.
)
Select position R
, D
or M
.
)
Gradually release the brake pedal.
The vehicle moves off immediately.
7Driving
The system is reactivated automatically
at every new start using the key.
Reactivation
This system requires a battery with a special
specification and technology (reference
numbers available from a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by CITROËN
introduces the risk of malfunction of the system.
In the event of a fault with the system, the
"ECO OFF"
switch warning lamp flashes then
comes on continuously.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall. All of the instrument panel
warning lamps come on. It is then necessary
to switch off the ignition and start the engine
again using the key.
Operating fault
Maintenance
Before doing anything under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid any risk of injury
resulting from automatic operation of
START mode.
The Stop & Start system makes use
of advanced technology. All work
on this type of battery must be done
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Press the "ECO OFF"
switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off,
accompanied by a message in the screen.
