Emergency braking
The emergency braking should only be
used in an exceptional situation.
In the event of a failure of the main ser vice
brake or in an exceptional situation (e.g. driver
taken ill, under instruction, etc.), a continuous
pull on the control lever will brake the vehicle.
Braking takes place while the control lever is
being pulled. It is interrupted if the control lever
is released.
The ABS and DSC systems provide stability of
the vehicle during emergency braking.
If the emergency braking malfunctions, the
message "Parking brake control faulty" will be
displayed in the instrument panel.

It is the driver's responsibility to monitor
the state of the traffic continuously,
especially vehicles coming towards you.
The driver should check that no object
or person can hinder the advance of the

Bonnet
The location of the interior bonnet release
lever prevents opening of the bonnet when
the left-hand front door is shut. Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid the risk of injury related to an

When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the stay with
care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might be
caught by the fan blades.

Advice on care
General recommendations on the care and maintenance of your vehicle are given in the
Maintenance and Warranty Guide.Observe the following recommendations to
avoid damaging your vehicle:
-
D
o not clean your headlamps with a dry
or abrasive cloth, nor with detergent or
solvent products. Use a sponge and
soapy water or a pH neutral product.
-
W
hen using a high-pressure washer
on stubborn dirt, avoid prolonged use
on the headlamps, the lamps and their
edges to avoid damaging their lacquer
finish and seals.
-
N
ever use an abrasive sponge to clean
persistent dirt, as this may scratch the
paint sur face. Use a soft cloth with
soapy water instead.
-
W
hen washing your vehicle, never
clean the interior with a water jet.
-
W
hen washing your vehicle in an
automatic roller-brush car wash, be
sure to lock your doors and, depending
on version, remove the key. It is always preferable to have paint
repairs carried out by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
-
N
ever use high-pressure washing to
clean the engine compartment, in order
to avoid damaging the electrical units.
-
L
iquids carried in an open vessel (e.g.
a cup or mug) could be spilt, presenting
a risk of damage on contact with the
controls in the dashboard and centre
console. Be careful.
Depending on version, in order to avoid
damaging or unpeeling the stickers on the
bodywork, you are strongly advised against
using high-pressure washing to wash your
vehicle. It is recommended that you wash
it using a high-flow water jet and rinse the
vehicle down using demineralised water.
Only a microfibre cloth is recommended for
wiping your vehicle; it must be clean and
used gently.
