Ease of use and comfort
► Turn the mirror towards the vehicle.
Electric folding
Depending on equipment, the mirrors can be
folded electrically, when the vehicle is parked.
► From the inside, with the ignition on, place control A in the
central position.
► Pull control A backwards.
► Lock the vehicle from the outside.
Electric unfolding
Door mirrors are unfolded electrically with the
remote control or the Keyless Entry and Starting
system when the vehicle is unlocked. Unless
folding was selected with control A, pull the
control backwards in the centre position.
Folding/unfolding during locking/
unlocking can be disabled. Contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If necessary, the mirrors can be folded
manually.
Rear view mirror
Equipped with an anti-dazzle system, which
darkens the mirror glass and reduces the
nuisance to the driver caused by the sun,
headlights of other vehicles, etc.
Manual model
Day/night position


► Pull the lever to change to the anti-dazzle "night” position.
► Push the lever to change to the normal "day" position.
Adjustment
► Set the mirror to the normal “day” position.
Automatic "electrochrome" model

This system automatically and progressively
transitions between day and night modes, using
a sensor that measures the light entering from
the rear of the vehicle.
To ensure optimum visibility during your manoeuvres, the mirror lightens
automatically when reverse gear is engaged.
Ventilation
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger compartment
is filtered and originates either from the
exterior, via the grille located at the base of the
windscreen, or from the inside in air recirculation
mode.
Controls
Depending on version, the controls are
accessible in the " Air conditioning" touch
screen menu or are grouped together in the
control panel on the centre console.
The demisting/defrosting controls for the
windscreen and the rear screen are located
below the touch screen, or on the centre console
panel located below the audio system.
Air distribution

1. Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents
2. Front side window demisting/defrosting vents
3.Adjustable and closable side air vents
4. Adjustable and closable central air vents
5. Air outlets to the front footwells
6. Air outlets to the rear footwells
Advice
Using the ventilation and air
conditioning system
► To 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 perfect working order.
► If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum 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

the air conditioning increases the available

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. Thanks to its special active
additive, this type of filter helps to purify the
air breathed by the occupants and keep the
passenger compartment clean (by reducing
allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
► To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Maintenance and Warranty Guide.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems
only operate when the engine is running.
Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system to maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment.
For more information on the Stop & Start,
refer to the corresponding section.

The heating only operates when the engine is
running.

Lighting and visibility
the left, moving the lighting control stalk upwards turns on the right-hand sidelamps).
This is confirmed by an audible signal and the
lighting of the corresponding direction indicator
lamp on the instrument panel.
► To switch off the parking lamps, return the lighting control stalk to the central position.
Automatic illumination of
headlamps
When the ring is at the "AUTO" position and
a low level of ambient light is detected by a
sunshine sensor, the number plate lamps, side lamps and dipped beam headlamps are switched
on automatically, without any action on the
part of the driver. They can also come on if
rain is detected, at the same time as automatic
operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the light returns to a sufficient level
or after the windscreen wipers are switched off,
the lamps are switched off automatically.
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the sunshine sensor, the lighting comes on,
this warning lamp is displayed in the instrument
panel accompanied by an audible signal and/or a
message.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
They operate with the sidelamps or dipped beam headlamps on, in manual or
auto mode.
► Press and rotate the ring:– forwards a 1st time to switch on the front
foglamps.
– forwards a 2nd time to switch on the rear
foglamp.
– backwards a 1st time to switch off the rear
foglamp.
– backwards a 2nd time to switch off the front
foglamps.
When the lamps are switched off automatically
(with AUTO model) or when the dipped beam
headlamps are switched off manually, the
foglamps and sidelamps remain on.
► Rotate the ring backwards to switch the foglamps off; the sidelamps will then switch off.
In good or rainy weather, by day and
night, using the front and rear foglamps
is prohibited. In these situations, the power of
their beams may dazzle other drivers. They
should only be used in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps and
dipped beam headlamps manually as the
sunshine sensor may detect sufficient light.
Do not forget to turn off the front and rear
foglamps as soon as they are no longer
necessary.
Switching off of the lamps when the
ignition is switched off
When the ignition is switched off, all of the
lamps turn off immediately, except for dipped
beam headlamps if automatic guide-me-home
lighting is activated.
Switching on the lamps after
switching off the ignition
To reactivate the lighting control, rotate the
ring to the "AUTO" position, then to the
desired position.
If the driver's door is opened, a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the lamps
are on.
They will go off automatically after a period of
time that depends on the state of charge of
the battery (entering energy economy mode).
Direction indicators
(flashers)


► Left: lower the lighting control stalk passing the point of resistance.► Right: raise the lighting control stalk passing the point of resistance.
Three flashes
► Press briefly upwards or downwards, without going beyond the point of resistance; the
direction indicators will flash 3 times.
Parking lamps
Vehicle side marking by lighting the sidelamps
on the traffic side only.
► Depending on version, within one minute of switching off the ignition, move the lighting
control stalk up or down, depending which side
the traffic is on (for example, when parking on
