recommendations for the
sliding side doors
The doors must only be operated when
the vehicle is stationary.
For your safety and for 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, illumination of
the "door open" warning lamp and the
message in the multifunction screen are
there to remind you. Contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop to
deactivate these warnings.
Lock your vehicle when using an
automatic car wash.
It is possible to drive with the right-hand
door open, to enable the transportation of
long loads.
The left-hand
door is kept closed by the
distinctive "yellow" lock, positioned at the
base of the door.
This closed door must not be used to
retain loads.
Driving with the right-hand door open is a
special dispensation. Please comply with
the usual safety instructions on how to
warn other drivers. If fitted to your vehicle, a check strap system
allows the doors to be opened from about 90°
to about 180°.
