F Switch on the ignition.

Replacement of wiper arms should be  
carried out only by a CITROËN dealer or  
in a qualified workshop.  
You must fit the transverse bars to the  
longitudinal bars at the fixing points indicated  
by engraved markings on the longitudinal bars.  
To install the roof bars, you must secure them  
only to the four fixing points in the roof frame.  
These points are masked by the vehicle's doors  
when closed.  
Roof bars  
For safety reasons and to avoid damaging  
the roof, it is essential to use the  
transverse bars approved for your vehicle.  
Recommendations  
F Distribute the load uniformly, taking  
care to avoid overloading one of the  
sides.  
F Arrange the heaviest part of the load  
as close as possible to the roof.  
F Lash the load down securely and fit a  
warning flag if it overhangs the vehicle.  
F Drive gently: the vehicle will be more  
susceptible to the effects of side winds  
(stability may be affected).  
Observe the fitting instructions and the  
conditions of use in the guide supplied  
with the roof bars.  
The roof bar fixings include a lug to be fitted  
into the hole at each fixing point.  
F Remove the roof bars once they are no  
longer needed.
