Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the
sunshine sensor, the lamps come on
and this warning lamp lights up in the
instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and/or a message.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may
detect sufficient light. In this case, the
lighting will not come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located
on the dashboard or at the top of the
windscreen behind the rear view mirror
(depending on equipment); the associated
functions would no longer be controlled.
Daytime running lamps/
sidelamps
The front lamps light up automatically when the
engine starts.
They provide the following functions:
-
D
aytime running lamps (lighting control
stalk at " AUTO" position with adequate light
level).
-
S
idelamps (lighting control stalk at " AUTO"
position with low light level or "Sidelamps
only" or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").
The LEDs are brighter when operating as
daytime running lamps.
Parking lamps
Automatic illumination of
headlamps
When a low level of ambient light is detected
by a sunshine sensor, the number plate lamps,
sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are
switched on automatically, without any action
on the part of the driver. They may also come
on if rain is detected, at the same time as
automatic operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a
sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers
are switched off, the lamps are switched off
automatically.

Front airbags
System which protects the driver and front
passenger(s) in the event of a serious front
impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the
head and thorax.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger airbag is
fitted in the roof.
Deployment
The airbags are deployed, except the front
passenger airbag if it is deactivated, in the
event of a serious front impact to all or part of
the frontal impact zone A, in the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane
and directed from the front to the rear of the
vehicle.
The front airbag inflates between the thorax
and head of the front occupant of the vehicle
and the steering wheel, driver's side, and the
dashboard, passenger side, to cushion their
for ward movement. When driving
, keep the glove box closed.
Other wise, this could cause injury in the
event of an accident or sudden braking. If fitted to your vehicle, this is a system that
protects the driver and front passenger in the
event of a serious side impact, in order to limit
the risk of injury to the chest, between the
abdomen and head.
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest
frame, door side.Deployment
The airbags are deployed on one side in the
event of a serious side impact applied to all or
part of the side impact zone, perpendicular to
the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The lateral airbag inflates between the front
occupant's abdomen and head and the
associated door trim panel.
Lateral airbags
Safety

Curtain airbags
If fitted to your vehicle, this is a system that
contributes towards greater protection for the
driver and passengers (with the exception of
the central seats) in the event of a serious side
impact, in order to limit the risk of injury to the
side of the head.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and
the upper passenger compartment area.
Deployment
The airbags are deployed on one side in the
event of a serious side impact applied to all or
part of the side impact zone, perpendicular to
the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The curtain airbag inflates between the outer
rear passenger and the windows.
The airbags may no longer be deployed in the
event of a serious impact.In the event of a minor impact or bump on
the side of the vehicle or if the vehicle rolls
over, the airbags may not be deployed.
In the event of a rear or front collision,
none of the lateral airbags is deployed.
Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the safety recommendations
below.
Adopt a normal and upright sitting
position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object, etc.), nor fix or attach anything
close to or in the way of the airbag release
trajectory; this could cause injuries during
their deployment.
Never modify the original definition of your
vehicle, particularly in the area directly
around the airbags.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been stolen, have the airbag systems
checked.
All work on the airbag systems must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned
are obser ved, a risk of injury or of minor
burns to the head, chest or arms when an
airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out.
The airbag inflates almost instantly (within
a few milliseconds) then deflates within
the same time discharging the hot gas via
openings provided for this purpose. Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by its spokes or resting your hands on the
centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on
the dashboard.
Do not smoke as deployment of the
airbags can cause burns or the risk of
injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel
or hit it violently.
Do not fix or attach anything to the
steering wheel or dashboard, as this
could cause injuries when the airbags are
deployed.
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof,
as this could cause head injuries when the
curtain airbag is deployed.
If fitted to your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they
play a part in securing the curtain airbags.

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.
