operating windows.
If the vehicle is not fitted with an alarm,
locking is signalled by fixed lighting of the
direction indicators for approximately two
seconds.
Depending on version, the door mirrors fold at
the same time.
Driving with the doors locked could make
it more difficult for the emergency
services to enter the passenger compartment
in an emergency.
As a safety measure, never leave the vehicle
without taking the remote control with you,
even for a short time.
Deadlocking
Deadlocking deactivates the exterior and
interior door controls, as well as the
central locking button on the dashboard.

General
recommendations for the
sliding side doors
Doors must only be operated when the
vehicle is stationary.
For your safety and that of your passengers,
as well as for correct operation of the doors,
you are strongly advised not to drive with a
door open.
Always check that it is safe to operate the
door and in particular, be sure not to leave
children or animals near the door controls
without supervision.
The audible warning, the lighting of the "door
open" warning lamp and the message on the
screen are there to remind you. Contact a
40
Access
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop if
you want to deactivate this warning.
Lock the vehicle when you use an automatic
car wash.
Before opening or closing and while
moving doors, ensure that no person,
animal or object is in the door frame or any
other position that would block the desired
movement, inside or outside the vehicle.
If this advice is not followed, injuries or
damage may occur if any part of a person or
an object is trapped or caught.
Electrical door opening is disabled at speeds
above 2 mph (3 km/h):
–
However
, if the vehicle started moving
while the doors were open, the speed must
be reduced below 19 mph (30
km/h) before
they can be closed.
–
Any attempt to open a door electrically
using the interior handle while driving results
in it only being possible to open the door
manually
.
–
This situation is accompanied by the
audible warning, the lighting of the "door
open" warning lamp and the message on the
screen.
To release the door and be able to
operate it again, it is necessary to stop the
vehicle.
Take care not to block the guide space on the floor so that the door can slide
correctly.
For safety and functional reasons, do not
drive with the sliding side door open.
The electric controls are disabled in the event of an impact. Manual opening and
closing remain possible.
While starting the engine, door
movements are paused, resuming when
the engine is running.
Depending on the engine fitted, if
the door is closed and an opening
request is issued in Stop mode of Stop &
Start, the door will open slightly and then
stop. In Start mode, the door will resume its
movement when the engine re-starts.
To hold the sliding side door in the open position, open the door fully to engage
the latch (located at the bottom of the door).
Doors and door clearances
When open, a door projects beyond the body.
Allow adequate clearance when parking
alongside walls, lamp-posts, high pavements,
etc.
When open, a door never projects
beyond the rear bumper.

2Safety/Obstacle detection
with electric door(s)
The obstacle detection system is triggered when
the moving door encounters an obstacle with a
certain level of physical resistance. If an obstacle
is detected:
–
while the door is closing, the door stops then
opens fully
.
–
while the door is opening, the door stops then
closes.
–
twice in succession during a movement of the
door
, the door will no longer close electrically
(uninitialisation).
On a steep slope: a safety system slows down
the movement of the door.
In all cases, wait a few seconds before operating
the door (closing or opening).
Close the door manually for safety reasons.
Then reinitialise the door.
Reinitialising electric doors
If electrical operations no longer work:
► Fully close the door(s) manually
.►
Fully open the door(s)
electrically
.
►
Close the door(s)
electrically
.
On completion of this procedure, electric
operation of the doors is restored.
However, if a problem persists following this
procedure, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
On a steep slope
It is possible to open and close the doors
electrically on slopes of up to a 20% gradient.
If the vehicle is on a slope, with the front of the
vehicle facing up the slope, open the door with
care. The door may open more quickly due to
the incline.
On a steep slope, guide the side door manually
to help it to close.
If your vehicle is on a slope, with the front of the
vehicle facing down the slope, the door may not
stay open and may close violently with the risk
of injury.
In the case of a steep slope, the door
may be driven by its own weight and as a
consequence may open or close violently.
There would not be time for action at the
electric controls to take effect.
There would not be time for the obstacle
detection system to react.
Take care not to leave the vehicle on a
steep slope with the door(s) open without
supervision. If this advice is not followed,
injuries or damage may occur if a person or
an object is trapped or caught.

"Keyless Entry and Start" system.
Electric windows
1. Left-hand front.
2. Right-hand front.
Operation
► To open/close the window manually, press/
pull the switch without passing the point of
resistance; the window stops as soon as the
switch is released.
►
T
o open/close the window automatically,
press/pull the switch fully, beyond the point of
resistance; the window opens/closes completely
when the switch is released (pressing the switch
again stops the movement of the window).
The electric window controls remain operational for about 45 seconds after
the ignition is switched off if the front doors
are not open.
After that time, the controls are disabled. To
reactivate them, switch the ignition on again.
Safety anti-pinch
If your vehicle is fitted with the safety anti-pinch
function, when the window rises and meets an
obstacle, it stops and partially lowers.
In the event of unwanted opening of the window
on closing, press the control until the window
opens completely. Within 4 seconds, pull the
control until the window closes.
The safety anti-pinch does not operate while
doing this.
Reinitialising the electric
windows
After reconnecting the battery, or in the event
of abnormal window movement, the anti-pinch
function must be reinitialised.
The anti-pinch function is disabled during the
following sequence of operations.
For each window:
►
Lower the window fully
, then raise it; it will
rise in steps of a few centimetres each time the
control is pressed. Repeat the operation until the
window is fully closed.
►
Continue to pull the control for at least one
second after the window reaches the closed
position.
If an electric window meets an obstacle
during operation, the movement of the
window must be reversed. To do this, press
the relevant control.
When the driver operates the passenger
electric window control, it is important to
ensure that nothing can prevent the window
from closing properly.
Pay particular attention to children when
operating the windows.
Do not put your head or arms through the
open windows when the vehicle is moving -
risk of serious injury!

fastener 1, turning them by a quarter turn
backwards to unlock them.
Make sure that the size, shape and
volume of the loads carried are
compatible with the highway code and safety
regulations and do not impair the driver’s field
of vision.
All loads must be appropriately secured
to prevent or minimise displacement and
prevent injury.
Install the anti-slip net (supplied with the
vehicle) every time that the seat is raised and
the partition flap removed.
Never use the net for any other purposes.
Regularly check the condition of the anti-
slip net. As soon as signs of wear or tear
appear, contact a CITROËN dealer to have
it replaced by an anti-slip net that meets the
specifications required by CITROËN for the
vehicle.
Always fit the removable flap back into place
when you are not carrying any long loads.
"Rotating writing table"
If fitted to your vehicle, the central seat cushion
of the bench seat can be tilted to form a pivoting
writing table, thus creating a mobile desk (with
the vehicle stationary).
►
Pull the handle located at the top of the
backrest cushion.
Never use the table while the vehicle is
being driven.
In the event of sudden braking or impact, any
objects on the table might become dangerous
projectiles that could cause injury.
