Warning/indicator lampStateCause Actions/Comments
Engine diagnostic
system Fixed.
A fault with the engine or the
emission control system (EOBD)
has been detected.
EOBD (European On Board
Diagnosis) is a
diagnostics
system which complies with,
among others, the standards on
emissions limits of:
-
CO
(carbon monoxide),
-
H
C (unburnt hydrocarbons),
-
N
Ox (nitrogen oxides),
detected by oxygen sensors
placed downstream of the
catalytic converters,
-
particles.Have it checked as soon as possible by a
CITROËN
dealer or by a
qualified workshop.
Par ticle filter
(Diesel)
Fixed.
Regeneration of the particle filter.
It is recommended that you leave the engine running until the
warning lamp goes off so that regeneration can be completed.
For more information on Checking levels , refer to the
corresponding section.
Under-inflation
detection Fixed.
A deflated or punctured tyre. Park and switch off the ignition.
Change or repair the wheel.
+ Fixed, accompanied
by the ser vice lamp.
A faulty sensor.

AirbagsThe airbags do not operate when the
engine is not running.
This equipment will only deploy once. If
a second impact occurs (during the same
or a
subsequent accident), the airbag will
not be deployed again.
The airbags have been designed to optimise
the safety of the occupants in the event of
a
serious collision; they work in conjunction
with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a
serious collision, electronic
detectors record and analyse any abrupt
deceleration of the vehicle:
-
i
n the event of a
serious collision, the
airbags are deployed instantly and
contribute towards better protection of
occupants of the vehicle; immediately after
the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly so as
not to hinder visibility or a
potential exit by
the occupants,
-
i
n the case of a
minor or rear impact or in
certain rollover conditions, the airbags are
not deployed; the seat belt alone contributes
towards ensuring your protection in these
situations. Deployment of the airbags is accompanied
by a
slight discharge of smoke and
a
noise, resulting from activation of the
pyrotechnic charge incorporated in the
system.
Although this smoke is not harmful,
sensitive individuals may experience slight
irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result in
a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Front airbags
System which protects the driver and
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(s) airbag is
fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.
Malfunction
If this warning lamp comes on,
contact a CITROËN dealer to have
the system checked.
Lateral airbags and curtain
airbags
If your vehicle is fitted with lateral airbags,
these are fitted to the front seat backrests on
the door side.
Curtain airbags are fitted to the door pillars and
the upper part of the passenger compartment,
in the roof over the front cab seats.
They inflate between the occupant and the
glazed area.
They are deployed independently of each other
depending on which side the collision occurs.
Malfunction
If this warning lamp comes on,
contact a CITROËN dealer to have
the system checked.
