Ease of use and comfort
Make sure that the size, shape and 
volume of the loads carried are 
compatible with the highway code and safety 
regulations and do not impair the driver’s field 
of vision.
The load must be evenly distributed in  the loading area so as not to interfere 
with driving the vehicle.
Place the load close to the side wall panels, 
or push it against the side wall panels 
between the wheel arches.
However, it is recommended that heavy 
objects are placed as close to the cab as 
possible as a precaution in case of sharp 
braking.
Firmly secure all parts of the load using 
the stowing rings on the floor of the 
loading area.
For more information on the  Interior fittings 
and in particular on the stowing rings, refer to 
the corresponding section.
To avoid the risk of injury or accident, the  load must be made stable so that it 
cannot slide, tip over, fall or be projected. To 
do this, use only retaining straps that conform 
to current standards (DIN, for example).
For more information on putting straps in 
place, refer to the manufacturer’s user guide.
To prevent the load from sliding, there must 
not be any empty spaces between the load 
items and the vehicle wall panels.
As well as the straps, optimise the stability 
of the load with stable handling equipment 
(wedges, rigid blocks of wood or padding).
When washing the vehicle, never clean 
the interior directly with a water jet.
For the Extenso Cab and the 
Crew cab
Do not place sharp or pointed objects in 
the protective cover to avoid damaging it.
 
 
Do not place objects on the 
dashboard.
Deactivate the front passenger airbag when 
carrying long objects.
For more information on  Deactivating 
the front passenger airbag, refer to the 
corresponding section.
Avoid placing short or heavy loads in the  protective cover; use the loading area 
whenever possible.
 
 
Avoid anchoring loads or hanging items  on the wall of the partition.
For safety reasons, ensure that small objects 
do not slip through the gaps of about 3
  cm 
between the partition and the vehicle's 
bodywork.
Extenso Cab 
 
This assembly comprises the two-seat front 
bench seat and a removable flap.
For more information on the  two-seat front 
bench seat, refer to the corresponding section.
A partition located on the floor behind the front 
seats protects the driver and front passengers 
against the risk of load movement.
A movable flap in this partition can be removed 
to allow long items to be loaded.
A protective cover is supplied with the vehicle to 
enable long items to be carried safely.

► Position the strap(s) around the head 
restraint(s) (depending on the position of the 
partition).
►
 
T
 ighten the strap(s) using the adjustable 
section in order to correctly retain the items that 
have been loaded inside the cover.
Do not place any load in the passenger 
compartment outside the protective cover 
(especially over the cover).
Regularly check the condition of the 
protective cover.
When signs of wear and tear appear, contact 
a CITROËN dealer to have it replaced by a 
protective cover that meets the specifications 
and qualities required by CITROËN and your 
vehicle.
Heating and Ventilation
Advice
Using the ventilation and air 
conditioning system
►
 
T
o ensure that air is distributed evenly, 
keep the external air intake grilles at the base 
of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the 
air outlets and the air extractor in the boot 
free from obstructions.
►
 
Do not cover the sunshine sensor located 
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to 
regulate the automatic air conditioning 
system.
►
 
Operate the air conditioning system for at 
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to 
keep it in good working order
.
►
 
If the system does not produce cold air
 , 
switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or 
a qualified workshop.
When towing a large load on a steep gradient 
in high temperatures, switching off the air 
conditioning increases the available engine 
power, enhancing the towing capacity.
Avoid driving for too long with the  ventilation off or with prolonged operation 
of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and 
deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high 
after the vehicle has stood for a long 
time in the sunshine, air the passenger 
compartment for a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high 
enough to quickly change the air in the 
passenger compartment.
Condensation created by the air 
conditioning results in a discharge of 
water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly 
normal.
Servicing the ventilation and air 
conditioning system
►
 
Ensure that the passenger compartment 
filter is in good condition and have the filter 
elements replaced regularly
.
We recommend using a composite passenger 
compartment filter. Its specific active additive 
helps protect against polluting gases and bad 
smells.
►
 
T
o ensure correct operation of the 
air conditioning system, have it checked 
according to the recommendations in the 
Manufacturer’s service schedule.

Lighting and visibility
4on the part of the driver. They can also come 
on if rain is detected, at the same time as the 
automatic rain sensitive 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.
 
 
► Turn the ring to the "AUTO" position. When 
the function is activated, a message is also 
displayed.
► 
T
 urn the ring to another position . An 
onscreen message is displayed to confirm that 
the function has been deactivated.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction of the rain/
sunshine sensor, the vehicle’s lamps 
come on and this warning lamp is displayed on 
the instrument panel, accompanied by an 
audible signal and/or the display of a message.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Do not cover the rain/sunshine sensor, 
located on the dashboard or at the top 
centre of the windscreen behind the interior 
rear view mirror (depending on equipment); 
the associated functions would no longer be 
controlled.
In fog or snow, the rain/sunshine sensor 
may detect sufficient light. For this 
reason, the lighting will not come on 
automatically.
The inner surface of the windscreen may  become misted up and affect the proper 
operation of the rain/sunshine sensor.
In humid and cold weather, demist the 
windscreen regularly.
Daytime running lamps / 
Sidelamps
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The front lamps light up automatically when the 
engine starts.
They provide the following functions:
–  
Daytime running lamps (lighting control stalk in 
the "
AUTO" position with adequate light level).
–
 
Sidelamps (lighting control stalk in the " AUT
O" 
position with low light levels or "Sidelamps only” 
or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").
The LEDs are brighter when operating as  daytime running lamps.

Safety
Front airbags 
 
This system protects the driver and front 
passenger(s) in the event of a serious front 
impact, limiting the risk of head and chest injury.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the 
steering wheel; the front passenger airbag is 
fitted in the roof.
 
 
With the two-seat front bench seat, the 
passenger sitting in the centre is also protected.
Deployment
They are deployed, except for the front 
passenger airbag if it is deactivated*, in the 
event of a violent front impact applied to all or 
part of front impact zone A.
The front airbag inflates between the chest and 
head of the front occupant of the vehicle and

o the corresponding section.
the steering wheel, on the driver's side, and the 
dashboard, on the passenger's side, to cushion 
their forward movement.
 
 
When driving, keep the storage 
compartment closed. Otherwise, there is 
a risk of injury in the event of an accident or 
sudden braking.
Lateral airbags 
 
This system protects the driver and front 
passenger in the event of a serious side impact, 
limiting the risk of injury to the chest, between 
the hip and the shoulder.
 
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest 
frame, on the door side.
Deployment
The lateral airbags are deployed on one side in 
the event of a serious side impact applied to all 
or part of the side impact zone B.
The lateral airbag inflates between the chest of 
the vehicle's occupant and the corresponding 
door panel.
Curtain airbags

Safety
5If fitted to the vehicle, this system offers 
enhanced protection for the driver and 
passenger in the event of a serious side impact, 
limiting the risk of injury to the side of the head.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and 
the upper passenger compartment area.
With the two-seat front bench seat, the 
passenger sitting in the centre is not 
protected.
 
 
If fitted to the vehicle, this system offers 
enhanced protection for the driver and 
passengers (except in the central seats) in the 
event of a serious side impact, limiting 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
It deploys simultaneously with the corresponding 
lateral airbag in the event of a serious side 
impact applied to all or part of the side impact 
zone B.
The curtain airbag inflates between the front 
and rear occupants of the vehicle and the 
corresponding windows.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning 
lamp lights up on the instrument panel. 
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked.
The airbags may not be deployed in the event of 
a serious impact.
In the event of a minor impact or bump at 
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 are deployed.
Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective, 
observe the safety recommendations 
below.
Adopt a normal and upright sitting position.
Fasten your seat belt and position it correctly.
Do not place anything between the occupants 
and the airbags (e.g.
  child, animal, object), do 
not fix or attach anything near or in the path of 
the airbags, as this could cause injuries when 
they are deployed.
Do not place objects on the dashboard.
Never modify the original definition of the 
vehicle, particularly in the area directly around 
the airbags.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are 
observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns to 
the head, chest or arms cannot be ruled out 
when an airbag is deployed. The bag inflates 
almost instantly (within a few milliseconds) 
then deflates within the same time, 
discharging the hot gas via openings provided 
for this purpose.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been 
stolen, have the airbag systems checked.
All work must be carried out only by a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
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.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved seat covers 
compatible with the deployment of these 
airbags. For information on the range of seat 
covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a 
CITROËN dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat 
backrests (e.g.
  clothing) as this could cause 
injuries to the chest or arm when the airbag is 
deployed.
