Starting-switching off the
engine
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has
a secret code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised to permit the
engine to start.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks the
engine management system a moment after
the ignition is switched off, and prevents
unauthorised engine starting.In the event of a fault, you are
informed by illumination of this
warning lamp, an audible signal and
a message in the screen.
In this case, your vehicle will not start; contact
a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
Key ignition switch
Ignition on position
This permits use of the vehicle's electrical
equipment or charging of portable devices.
Once the state of charge of the battery drops
to the reser ve level, the system switches to
energy economy mode: the power supply is
cut off automatically to preser ve the remaining
battery charge. Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key
or the remote control, which would weigh
down on its blade in the ignition switch
and could cause a malfunction.

F With a petrol engine, operate the starter motor by turning the key to position 3
without pressing the accelerator pedal,
until the engine starts. Once the engine is
running, release the key.
F

W
ith a diesel engine, turn the key to
position 2 , ignition on, to operate the engine
pre-heating system.
Wait until this warning lamp goes
off in the instrument cluster then
operate the starter motor by
turning the key to position 3
without
pressing the accelerator pedal until
the engine starts. Once the engine
is running, release the key.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can
stay on for a longer period. If the engine is
hot, the warning lamp does not come on.
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition. Wait a few moments
before operating the starter motor again.
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, do not keep trying: you risk
damaging the starter motor or the engine.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop. In temperate conditions, do not leave
the engine at idle to warm up but move
off straight away and drive at moderate
speed.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. Risk of intoxication and death.
In severe wintry conditions (temperature
below -23°C), the engine should be left
at idle for 4
minutes before moving off to
ensure the correct operation and life of the
mechanical parts of your vehicle, engine
and gearbox.
