Keyless Entry and Starting system, refer to
the corresponding section.
Electrical interference
The electronic key may not operate if
close to certain electronic devices such as
telephones (switched on or on standby) or
laptop computers, strong magnetic fields, etc.
Accumulations (water, dust, grime, salt, etc.) on the inner surface of the door
handle may affect detection.
If cleaning the inner surface of the door
handle using a cloth does not restore
detection, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
A sudden splash of water (stream of water,
high pressure jet washer, etc.) may be
identified by the system as the desire to open
the vehicle.
► Keep this button 1 pulled while removing key
2 from the housing.
If the alarm is activated, the audible
signal triggered on opening a door with
the key (integral with the remote control) will
stop when the ignition is switched on.

Advice
Remote control
The remote control is a sensitive, high-
frequency device; avoid handling it in your
pocket, due to the risk of unintentionally
unlocking the vehicle.
Avoid pressing the remote control buttons
while out of range of the vehicle, due to
the risk of rendering the remote control
inoperative. It would then be necessary to
reset it.
The remote control does not work
when the
key is in the ignition switch, even when the
ignition is switched off.
Anti-theft protection
Do not modify the electronic vehicle
immobiliser, as this might result in
malfunctions.
For vehicles with a key ignition switch,
remember to remove the key and turn the
steering wheel to engage the steering lock.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked could make
it more difficult for the emergency services
to enter the passenger compartment in an
emergency.
As a safety precaution, remove the key from
the ignition or take the electronic key with you
when leaving the vehicle, even for a short
time.
Purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the key codes memorised by a
CITROËN dealer, to ensure that the keys in
your possession are the only ones able to
start the vehicle.

Lighting and visibility
► A "headlamp flash" pauses the
function and the lighting system switches
to "automatic illumination of lamps" mode:
– If the "AUTO" and "Dipped beam" indicator
lamps were on, the system changes to main
beam.
– If the "AUTO" and "Main beam"
indicator lamps were on, the system changes to
dipped beam.
► To reactivate the function, once again switch
the headlamps manually between dipped and
main beam.
Flashing the headlamps does not
deactivate the system.
The state of the system is stored when the
ignition is switched off.
The system may be disrupted or not work correctly:
– When visibility conditions are poor
(snowfall, heavy rain, etc.).
– If the windscreen in front of the camera is
dirty, misted or obscured (for example, by a
sticker).
– If the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
– Road users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians.
Cornering lighting
This system makes use of the beam from a front
foglamp to illuminate the inside of a bend, when
the main or dipped beam headlamps are on and
the vehicle speed is below 25 mph (40
km/h)
(urban driving, winding road, junctions, parking
manoeuvres).
Without/With cornering lighting
Switching on / off
This system starts:
– when the corresponding direction indicator is
switched on.
or
–
from a certain angle of rotation of the steering
wheel.
It becomes inactive:
–
below a certain angle of rotation of the
steering wheel.
–
above 25 mph (40
km/h).
–
when reverse gear is engaged.
Programming
With audio system or touch screen
The system's settings are adjusted via the vehicle configuration menu.
Automatic headlamp dipping
When the ring is in the "AUTO” position, this
system automatically switches between dipped
and main beam headlamps according to the
lighting and traffic conditions, using a camera
located at the top of the windscreen.
This system is a driving aid.
The driver remains responsible for
the vehicle's lighting, its correct use for the
prevailing conditions of light, visibility and
traffic, and for observation of driving and
vehicle regulations.
The system becomes operational when the vehicle exceeds 16 mph (25 km/h).
When the speed falls below 9 mph (15 km/h),
the function is no longer operational.

barrier on a motorway).
–
V
ehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
obstruct the detection camera.
Headlamp beam height

Driving
6On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety
conditions allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt about the state of your vehicle,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Noise (Electric)
On the outside
Due to the vehicle’s quiet operation when
driving, the driver must pay particular attention.
At speeds of up to 19 mph (30 km/h), the
pedestrian horn warns other road users of the
vehicle’s presence.
Cooling the traction battery
The cooling fan comes on during
charging to cool the on-board charger and the
traction battery.
On the inside
During use, you may hear certain perfectly
normal noises specific to electric vehicles, such
as:
–
T
raction battery relay when starting.
–
V
acuum pump when braking.
–
V
ehicle tyres or aerodynamics when driving.
–
Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.
Towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
particular care must be taken.
Do not exceed the maximum towable
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower
air density at high altitudes decreases engine
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight (at the point where it
joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine CITROËN towing device is
used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the audible
signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant
temperature to increase. The maximum towable
load depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not
increase with engine speed.
►
Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to
limit the amount of heating produced.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as
soon as possible.

Fitting a steel or "space-saver" type
spare wheel
If the vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, the
washers A do not make contact with the steel
or "space-saver" type spare wheel. The wheel
is held in place by the conical contact surface
B of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
Stow the punctured wheel in the carrier.
Go promptly to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Have the punctured tyre examined. After
inspection, the technician will advise you on
whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must
be replaced.
Some driving aid functions should be
disabled, e.g. the Active Safety Brake.
If your vehicle has tyre under-inflation
detection, check the tyre pressures and
reinitialise the system.
For more information on Tyre under-inflation
detection, refer to the corresponding section.
Tyre under-inflation detection
The steel spare wheel does not have a
sensor.
Wheel with wheel trim
When refitting the wheel, refit the wheel
trim, starting by aligning the cutout with the
valve and then pushing the trim into place all
round its edge with the palm of your hand.
Changing a bulb
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
The headlamps have polycarbonate lenses with a protective coating:
–
Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive
cloth, nor with detergent or solvent
products.
–
Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product.
–
When using a high-pressure washer on
persistent marks, do not keep the lance
directed towards the headlamps, lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to damage
their protective coating and seals.
Changing a bulb must only be done with
the ignition off and after the headlamp /
lamp has been switched off for several
minutes - risk of serious burns!
Do not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers; use a lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a new bulb
of the same type and specification. To avoid
lighting imbalance, replace the bulbs in pairs.
Halogen bulbs (Hx)
To ensure good quality lighting, check
that the bulb is correctly positioned in its
housing.
Opening the bonnet/Accessing the
bulbs
Proceed with caution when the engine is hot -
risk of burns!
Take care with objects or clothing that could
be caught in the blades of the cooling fan -
risk of strangulation!
After changing a bulb
To refit, carry out the operations in
reverse order to removal.
Close the protective cover very carefully to
guarantee the sealing of the lamps.
