A few driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations at all times and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay
close attention to the traffic and keep your

r
eact at any time to any eventuality.
On
a long journey, a break every two hours is
s

In
difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate
t

f
rom other vehicles. Never

s
tationary in areas where inflammable
s
ubstances and materials (dry grass,
d
ead leaves...) might come into
c
ontact with the hot exhaust system -

e
lectrical systems of your vehicle.
Important!If you are obliged to drive through water:
-
c
heck that the depth of water does not
e
xceed 15 cm, taking account of waves
t
hat might be generated by other users,
-
d
eactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
d
rive as slowly as possible without
s
talling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph
(
10 km/h),
-
d
o not stop and do not switch off the
e

On
leaving the flooded road, as soon as
c
ircumstances allow, make several light brake
a
pplications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If
in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
