You can activate or deactivate this function  
permanently.  
► With the ignition on, press the central locking  
button until an audible signal is triggered and  
a corresponding message of confirmation is  
displayed.  
The state of the system stays in the memory  
when the ignition is switched off.  
If fitted to your vehicle, a check strap system  
allows the doors to be opened from about 90° to  
about 180°.  
Driving with the doors locked may render  
access by the emergency services to the  
interior difficult in an emergency.  
► Pull the yellow control when the door is open.  
The check strap will engage again automatically  
on closing.  
It is possible to drive with the right-hand  
door open, to enable the transportation  
of long loads.  
The left-hand door is kept closed by the  
distinctive "yellow" lock, positioned at the  
base of the door.  
This closed door must not be used to retain  
loads.  
Driving with the right-hand door open is a  
special dispensation. Please comply with the  
usual safety instructions on how to warn other  
drivers.  
Carrying long or voluminous objects  
If you want to drive with the boot open,  
you should press the central locking button  
to lock the doors. Otherwise, every time the  
speed of the vehicle exceeds 6 mph (10  
km/h), the locks will rebound and the alerts  
mentioned above will appear.  
Pressing the central locking button unlocks  
the vehicle.  
Above 6 mph (10 km/h), this unlocking is  
temporary.  
General  
recommendations for the  
sliding side doors  
Doors must only be operated when the  
vehicle is stationary.  
For your safety and that of your passengers,  
as well as for correct operation of the doors,  
you are strongly advised not to drive with a  
door open.  
Always check that it is safe to operate the  
door and in particular, be sure not to leave  
children or animals near the door controls  
without supervision.

Access  
The audible warning, the lighting of the "door  
open" warning lamp and the message on the  
screen are there to remind you. Contact a  
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop if  
you want to deactivate this warning.  
Lock the vehicle when you use an automatic  
car wash.  
To hold the sliding side door in the open  
position, open the door fully to engage  
the latch (located at the bottom of the door).  
On a steep slope  
Doors and door clearances  
Take care when opening doors while the vehicle  
is on a slope facing uphill. The sloping terrain  
could cause the door to open more quickly than  
usual.  
On a steep slope, manually guide the side door  
to help it to close.  
If the vehicle is on a slope facing downhill,  
the door may not stay open, instead closing  
suddenly, with a risk of injury. Always hold  
the door to ensure that it does not close  
unexpectedly.  
Before opening or closing and while  
moving doors, ensure that no person,  
animal or object is in the door frame or any  
other position that would block the desired  
movement, inside or outside the vehicle.  
If this advice is not followed, injuries or  
damage may occur if any part of a person or  
an object is trapped or caught.  
When open, a door projects beyond the body.  
Allow adequate clearance when parking  
alongside walls, lamp-posts, high pavements,  
etc.  
Take care not to block the guide space  
on the floor so that the door can slide  
correctly.  
For safety and functional reasons, do not  
drive with the sliding side door open.  
On a steep slope, the door's weight may  
cause it to move, opening or closing  
suddenly as a result.  
Avoid leaving the vehicle unsupervised on a  
steep slope with one or more doors open. If  
this advice is not followed, injuries or damage  
may occur if a person or an object is trapped  
or caught.  
To hold the sliding side door in the open  
position, open the door fully to engage  
the latch (located at the bottom of the door).  
When open, a door never projects  
beyond the rear bumper.
