Alarm
(Depending on version)
System which protects and provides a deterrent
against theft and break-ins.
Exterior perimeter monitoring
The system checks for opening of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries, for
example, to open a door, the boot or the
bonnet.
Interior volumetric monitoring
The system only checks for the
variation in volume inside the cab .
The alarm is triggered if anyone
breaks a window or enters the
vehicle's cab but will not be
triggered if someone enters the
loading area . The system checks for any
variation in the volume in the
passenger compartment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone
breaks a window, enters the
passenger compartment or moves
inside the vehicle.
Self-protection function
The system checks for the putting out of
ser vice of its components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery, the central
control or the siren wiring is put out of ser vice
or damaged.
For all work on the alarm system,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If your vehicle is fitted with Additional
Heating
/ Ventilation, volumetric
monitoring is not compatible with this
system.
For more information on Additional
Heating
/ Ventilation, refer to the
corresponding section.
Locking the vehicle with full
alarm system
Activation
F Turn the ignition off and exit the vehicle. The exterior perimeter monitoring is activated
after 5 seconds and the interior volumetric
monitoring after 45 seconds.
If an opening (door, tailgate or hinged
doors, bonnet, etc.) is incorrectly closed,
the vehicle is not locked, but the exterior
perimeter monitoring will be activated
after 45 seconds, at the same time as the
interior volumetric monitoring.
Deactivation
F Lock or deadlock the vehicle using the remote control or the
"Keyless Entry and Starting"
system.
When the monitoring system is active, the
indicator lamp in the button flashes once per
second and the direction indicators come on for
about 2 seconds.

It is not necessary to release the
accelerator when changing gear.
When braking or slowing down, the
gearbox changes down automatically
to allow the vehicle to accelerate in the
correct gear.
On sharp acceleration, the gearbox will
not change up unless the driver acts on
the steering mounted paddles.
Never select neutral N while the vehicle is
moving.
Only engage reverse gear R when the
vehicle is stopped and the brake pedal is
pressed.
Reverse gear
To engage reverse gear, the vehicle must be
stationary with your foot on the brake pedal.
F
Sel
ect position R .
There is an audible signal upon engagement of
reverse.
At low speed, if reverse gear is requested,
the N indicator lamp flashes and the
gearbox goes into neutral automatically.
To engage reverse, with your foot on
the brake pedal, move the selector to
position
N, then to position R .
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, it is possible to:
-
m ove to position N to engage neutral,
or
-
l
eave the vehicle in gear ; in this case, the
vehicle cannot be moved.
In both cases, you must apply the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle.
When immobilising the vehicle with the
engine running, you must move the
selector to neutral N .
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
ensure that the selector is in neutral N and
that the parking brake is applied.
Malfunction
With the ignition on, the flashing of A or
AUTO , accompanied by an audible signal and
a message, indicates a malfunction of the
gearbox.
Have the vehicle checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop. You must keep your foot on the brake
pedal while starting the engine.
In all parking situations, you must apply
the parking brake to immobilise the
vehicle.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
phases when the vehicle is stopped (red lights,
queues, etc.). The engine restarts automatically
- START mode - as soon as the driver wishes
to move off again.
Primarily designed for urban use, the function
is intended to reduce fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise level
when stationary.
The function does not affect the functionalities
of the vehicle, in particular the braking.
Driving on flooded roads
Before entering into a flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving
recommendations , particularly on
flooded roads, refer to the corresponding
section.

As this value may change, please verify
the maximum load set out in the manual
supplied with the roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the
speed of the vehicle to the profile of the
road to avoid damaging the roof bars and
the fixings on the vehicle.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in
order to comply with the regulations for
transporting objects which are longer than
the vehicle.

Bonnet
The location of the interior bonnet release
lever prevents opening 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
automatic change to START mode.

When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the bonnet
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.

The diesel circuit is under very high
pressure.
All work on this circuit must be carried out
only by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
This engine is an example only. The location of

Checking levels
Check all of the following levels regularly in

schedule. Top them up if required, unless
otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.

The fluids must comply with the
manufacturer's requirements and with the
vehicle's engine.
Take care when working under the bonnet,
as certain areas of the engine may be
extremely hot (risk of burns) and the
cooling fan could start at any time (even
with the ignition off).
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health
and very corrosive.Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Empty used oil into the containers
reser ved for this purpose at a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Engine oil
The oil level is checked on a level
sur face with the engine stopped for
at least 30 minutes, either using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel when the ignition is switched
on (for vehicles equipped with an
electric gauge), or using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two
ser vices (or oil changes). It is recommended
that you check the level, and top up if
necessary, every 3,000
miles (5,000 km).
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emissions control system,
never use additives in the engine oil.
Checking using the dipstick
