Airbags
General information
System designed to contribute towards improving the safety of the occupants (with
t
he exception of the rear centre passenger)
i
n the event of violent collisions. The airbags
s
upplement the action of the seat belts fitted
w
ith force limiters (all except the centre rear
p
assenger
b
elt).
If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors
record
and analyse the front and side impacts
s
ustained in the impact detection zones:
-
i
n the case of a serious impact, the airbags
a
re deployed instantly and contribute
towards better protection of the occupants
of
the vehicle (with the exception of the
r
ear centre passenger); immediately after
t
he impact, the airbags deflate rapidly so
t
hat they do not hinder visibility or the exit
o
f the occupants,
-
i
n the case of a minor or rear impact or in
c
ertain roll-over conditions, the airbags
m
ay not be deployed; the seat belt
a
lone contributes towards ensuring your
p
rotection in these situations. The airbags do not operate when the
ignition is switched off.
This
equipment will only deploy once.
I
f a second impact occurs (during the
s
ame or a subsequent accident), the
a
irbag will not be deployed again.Deployment
of one or more of the
a
irbags is accompanied by a slight
e
mission of smoke and a noise, due
t
o the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge
incorporated in the system.
This
smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
i
ndividuals may experience slight
ir
ritation.
The noise of detonation related to the
deployment
of one or more airbags may
r
esult in a slight loss of hearing for a
s
hort time.

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressures in the four t
yres, once the vehicle is moving.
It
compares the information given by the four
w
heel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed .
The
system triggers an alert as soon as it
d
etects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or
more tyres. The
under-inflation detection system
d
oes not replace the need for vigilance
o
n the part of the driver.
This
system does not avoid the need to
c
heck the tyre pressures (including the
s
pare wheel) every month as well as
b
efore a long journey.
Driving
with under-inflated tyres impairs
r
oad holding, extends braking distances
a
nd causes premature tyre wear,
par
ticularly under arduous condition
(high
loading, high speed, long journey).
System
which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure
label.
For
more information on the
i
dentification markings, refer to the
c
orresponding
s
ection.
Tyre
pressures should be checked
w
hen the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
stopped
for 1 hour or after a journey of
l
ess than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate
s
peeds).
Other wise
(when hot), add 0.3 bar to
t
he pressures shown on the label.
Driving
with under-inflated tyres
i
ncreases fuel consumption.

Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain functions according to the level of charge
r
emaining in the battery.
When
the vehicle is being driven, the load
r
eduction function temporarily deactivates
c
ertain functions, such as the air conditioning,
t
he heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically
as soon as conditions permit.System
which manages the duration of use of c
ertain functions to conserve a sufficient level
of
charge in the battery.
After
the engine has stopped, you can
s
till use functions such as the audio and
telematics
system, windscreen wipers, dipped
b
eam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for
a
maximum combined duration of about
f
orty minutes.
Energy economy mode
Switching to economy mode
A message then appears in the instrument p
anel screen indicating that the vehicle has
s
witched to economy mode and the active
f
unctions are put on standby.
If
a telephone call is being made at this time, it
w
ill be maintained for around 10 minutes with
t
he Bluetooth hands-free system of your audio
s
ystem.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automatically n ext time the vehicle is driven.
In order to restore the use of these functions
immediately,
start the engine and let it run:
-
f
or less than ten minutes, to use the
e
quipment for approximately five minutes,
-
f
or more than ten minutes, to use the
e
quipment for up to approximately
t
hirty minutes.
Let
the engine run for the duration specified to
e
nsure that the battery charge is sufficient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously restart the
engine
in order to charge the battery.
A
flat battery prevents the engine from
s
tarting.

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
H owever, check regularly that the terminals
a
re correctly tightened (versions without quick
r
elease terminals) and that the connections
a
re clean.Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for details of the
replacement
intervals for these
c
omponents.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the e ngine oil is changed.
Refer
to the manufacturer's
s
ervice schedule for details of
the
replacement interval for this
c
omponent.
Oil filter
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
O ther wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Depending
on the environment (e.g. dusty
a
tmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g.
city driving), replace them twice as often
if necessary .
A
clogged passenger compartment filter may
h
ave an adverse effect on the per formance
o
f the air conditioning system and generate
u
ndesirable
o
dours.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the
particle filter is indicated by the
fixed illumination of this warning
l
amp accompanied by a warning
m
essage.
As
soon
as
the traffic conditions permit,
r
egenerate
the filter by driving at a speed of at
l
east
40
mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp
g
oes
off.
If
the
warning lamp stays on, this indicates a
l
ow
additive level.
Refer
to
the "Diesel additive level" section.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter
regeneration operations may be
a
ccompanied by a "burning" smell,
w
hich is per fectly normal.
Following
prolonged operation of the
v
ehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you
may, in exceptional circumstances,
n
otice the emission of water vapour at
t
he
exhaust on acceleration. This does
n
ot affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or
the environment.
When
carrying
out
any
operation
on
the
12
V
b
attery,
refer
to
the
corresponding
section
for
d
etails
of
the
precautions
to
be
taken
before
s
tarting
work.
Versions
equipped
with
Stop
