FIxEd SPEEd LIMItEr
If your vehicle is fitted with this function,
the speed of your vehicle can be limited
to a fixed speed of approximately 55 mph
(90 km/h) or 60 mph (100 km/h).
A label in the passenger compartment
indicates this maximum speed.
The fixed speed limiter is not a function
of the cruise control type. It cannot be
activated or deactivated by the driver while
driving.
The maximum speed set in the factory
depends on the legislation in force in
the country of sale.
This maximum speed cannot be modified by
the driver.
If you want the maximum speed modified, go
to a CITROËN dealer.

cOrrEct uSE OF tHE AIr c O nd I t IO n I n GThe air conditioning is useful in all seasons
as it eliminates condensation and air
humidity.
It is normal that the condensation created by
the air conditioning system results in a flow
of water which may form a puddle under the
vehicle when parked. Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.
Have the filter elements (air filter and
passenger compartment filter) replaced
regularly. If you drive in a dusty environment,
have them replaced twice as often.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and have it checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

For even air distribution, ensure that the
exterior air intake grille located at the base
of the windscreen, the side and central
vents, the air outlets on the floor and the air
extractor at the rear are not obstructed.
In order to be effective, the air conditioning
should only be used with the windows
closed. However, if the interior temperature
remains high after a prolonged period
parked in the sun, first ventilate the
passenger compartment for a few minutes.Vents
"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion of hot
or cool air in the passenger compartment,
there are: 4 adjustable central vents, of
which 2 can be directed sideways (right
or left) towards the top of the body and
4
side vents which can be directed towards
the passengers. The air vents directed
towards the floor of the vehicle complete the

provide a perfect diffusion of cold air.
The warm air diffused at the floor,
from the
