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

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

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
s the air extractor located in the boot.
F
O
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
e
lements replaced regularly.
F
T

i
t checked regularly as recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.
F
I
f the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified
w
orkshop.
When
towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the
a
ir conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning

The
condensation created by the air
c
onditioning results in a discharge
