Headlamp dipping control
The headlamp dipping action of the lighting
control stalk can be used in two ways:
-
W
ith the vehicle started, pull the stalk briefly
toward you to flash the headlamps.
With the dipped beam headlamps
on: pull the stalk toward you to
change to main beam.
To change back to dipped beam: pull the stalk
toward you again.
Automatic illumination of
headlamps
When a low level of external light is
d etected by the sunshine sensor,
the number plate lamps, sidelamps
and dipped beam headlamps are
switched on automatically, without
any action on the part of the driver.
As soon as the level of light becomes sufficient
again, the lamps are switched off automatically.
Rear foglamp
To switch on the rear foglamp: Put the main control stalk in the
dipped beam position. Press the foglamp control button.
To switch off the foglamp: press the control
button again.
Using the foglamp is prohibited under
conditions of normal visibility, both day
and night.
In such conditions, the brightness of the
lamp could dazzle other drivers.
Do not forget to switch off your foglamp
once its use is no longer necessary.
Lighting and visibility

Operation of the system can be felt by vibration
in the brake pedal.
The ABS does not improve the "physical"
per formance possible, which depends on the
grip between the tyres and the road.
It follows that the normal safe driving practices
must be obser ved (distance between vehicles,
e t c .) .In an emergency, it is recommended that you
apply the brakes firmly and continuously.
It is not necessary to successively apply and
release the brakes (pumping the pedal).
The ABS will modulate the brake effort
applied.
ABS (warning lamp)
It comes on when the vehicle is switched on
and then goes off shortly after wards.
If it comes on when driving, it signals a fault in
the anti-lock braking system.
The braking system then operates as on
a
vehicle not fitted with ABS. Contact
a
CITROËN authorised repairer or a qualified
professional without delay.
ESP
This system helps retain control of the vehicle
in "critical" driving situations (avoiding an
obstacle, loss of grip in a
corner, etc.).
Principle of operation
A steering wheel sensor provides information
on the trajectory wanted by the driver.
Other sensors around the vehicle measure the
actual trajectory.
The system compares the driver's wishes with
the actual trajectory of the vehicle, correcting
the latter if necessary by acting on certain
brakes and/or the motor power.
ESP (warning lamp)
It comes on when the vehicle is switched on
and then goes off shortly after wards.
The ESP warning lamp flashes in regulation
mode, when it is called on to maintain grip.
If it comes on when driving, it signals a
fault
in the ESP system: contact a
CITROËN
authorised repairer or a
qualified professional
without delay.
Seat belts
Your E-MEHARI is fitted with four 3 -point seat
belts:
-

O
ne for the driver's seat.
-
O

ne for the front passenger's seat.
-

T
wo for the rear bench seat.
To correctly position a
seat belt: place the lap
strap as low as possible on your hips, correctly
adjusted.
Ensure that the diagonal belt passes over your
shoulder.
All persons carried in your E-MEHARI
must always wear a
seat belt.

Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the safety recommendations
below.
Adopt a normal and upright sitting position.
Wear a
correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the occupants
and the airbags (a child, pet, object, etc.), nor
fix or attach anything close to or in the way of
the airbag release trajectory; this could cause
injuries during their deployment.
Never modify the original definition of your
vehicle, particularly in the area directly
around the airbags.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen, have the airbag systems checked.
All work on the airbag systems must
be carried out by a
CITROËN dealer or
a


qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
obser ved, 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 hot gas via openings provided for
this purpose. 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 fit or attach anything to the steering
wheel, the dashboard or the passenger's
sun visor as this could cause injuries with
deployment of the airbags.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment of the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a
CITROËN dealer.
Do not attach or hang anything to the seat
backrests (clothes, etc.) as this could cause
injuries to the thorax or arm when the lateral
airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary. The vehicle's front door panels include side
impact sensors.
A damaged door or any unauthorised or
incorrectly executed work (modification or
repair) on the front doors or their interior trim
could compromise the operation of these
sensors – risk of malfunction of the lateral
airbags!
Such work must only be done by a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
