responsibility of the driver.

It compares the information given by the four

wheel speed sensors with reference values,

which must be reinitialised every time the tyre

pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.

The system triggers an alert as soon as it

detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one

or more tyres.

This system does not avoid the need to

check the tyre pressures (including the

spare wheel) every month as well as

before a long journey.

Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs

road holding, extends braking distances

and causes premature tyre wear,

particularly under arduous condition

(high loading, high speed, long journey).

Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures

shown on the label.

Driving with under-inflated tyres

increases fuel consumption.

Safety

Operating fault

Reinitialisation of the system is done with the

ignition on and the vehicle stationary.

From the secondary page of the "Driving

assistance" menu:

Before reinitialising the system, ensure

that the pressures of the four tyres are

correct for the use of the vehicle and in

line with the recommendations on the

tyre pressure label.

The under-inflation detection system

does not give a warning if a pressure is

incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.

The flashing and then fixed illumination of the

under-inflation warning lamp accompanied

by illumination of the "service" warning lamp

indicates a fault with the system.

In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the

tyres is no longer assured.

ꢀ

Confirm the instruction by pressing "Yes".

Have the system checked by a CITROËN

dealer or a qualified workshop.

The new pressure settings registered are

considered to be reference values by the

system.

Before doing anything to the system,

the pressures of the four tyres must be

checked and the system reinitialised.

Snow chains

The system does not have to be

reinitialised after fitting or removing

snow chains.

The under-inflation alert can only be

considered reliable if reinitialisation of

the system is done with the the four tyre

pressures correctly set.

Definitions

Anti-lock braking system (ABS)

and electronic brake force

distribution (EBFD)

This system improves the stability and

manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking

and provides improved control in corners, in

particular on poor or slippery road surfaces.

The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of

emergency braking.

Anti-slip regulation (ASR)

The ASR system (also known as Traction

Control) optimises traction in order to avoid

wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving

wheels and on the engine. It also improves

the directional stability of the vehicle on

acceleration.

following systems:

-

the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the

electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),

the anti-slip regulation (ASR) or traction

control,

-

the dynamic stability control (DSC).

The electronic brake force distribution system

manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.

Emergency braking assistance

Dynamic stability control (DSC)

6

In an emergency, this system enables you to

reach the optimum braking pressure more

quickly and therefore reduce the stopping

distance.

It is triggered according to the speed at which

the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a

reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an

increase in the effectiveness of the braking.

If there is a difference between the path

followed by the vehicle and that required by

the driver, the DSC monitors each wheel and

automatically acts on the brake of one or more

wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle

to the required path, within the limits of the laws

of physics.

227

Safety

Intelligent traction control

system ("Snow motion")

Operation

Your vehicle has a system to help driving on

snow: intelligent traction control.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS)

and electronic brake force

distribution (EBFD)

When changing wheels (tyres and rims),

make sure that these are approved for

your vehicle.

Normal operation of the ABS may make

itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake

pedal.

This system detects situations of difficult

surface adhesion that could make it difficult to

move off or make progress on deep fresh snow

or compacted snow.

In these situations, the intelligent traction

control limits the amount of wheel slip to

provide the best traction and trajectory control

for your vehicle.

In extremely severe conditions (deep snow,

mud, ...), when it proves impossible to move off,

it may be useful to temporarily deactivate the

ESP/ASR systems to allow the wheels to spin

freely and so allow movement of the vehicle.

When this warning lamp comes on,

accompanied by an audible signal

and a message, it indicates that there

is a fault with the ABS, which could

cause loss of control of the vehicle

when braking.

In emergency braking, press

very firmly without releasing the

pressure.

When this warning lamp comes on,

coupled with the STOP warning lamp,

accompanied by an audible signal and a

message, it indicates that there is a fault

with the electronic brake force distribution

(EBFD), which could cause loss of

control of the vehicle when braking.

You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.

In both cases, contact a CITROËN dealer or a

qualified workshop.

The use of snow tyres is strongly

recommended on surfaces offering low levels

of adhesion.

228

Safety

Deactivation

Operating fault

If this warning lamp comes on,

In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle

which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft

ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate

the DSC system, so that the wheels can move

freely and regain grip.

accompanied by an audible signal

and a message, this indicates a fault

with the system.

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified

workshop to have the system checked.

But it is recommended that the system be

reactivated as soon as possible.

ꢀ

Press the button.

The DSC system offers exceptional

safety in normal driving, but this should

not encourage the driver to take extra

risks or drive at high speed.

The correct operation of the system

depends on observation of the

manufacturer's recommendations

regarding the wheels (tyres and rims),

the braking components, the electronic

components and the assembly and

repair procedures used by CITROËN

dealers.

Dynamic stability control

(DSC)

This warning lamp and the indicator

lamp in the button come on: the

DSC system no longer acts on the

operation of the engine.

6

Activation

This system is activated automatically each

time the vehicle is started.

It comes into operation in the event of a grip or

trajectory problem.

Reactivation

The system is reactivated automatically each

time the ignition is switched back on or from

30 mph (50 km/h).

This is indicated by flashing of this

warning lamp in the instrument panel.

After an impact, have the system

checked by a CITROËN dealer or a

qualified workshop.

ꢀ

Press the button again to

reactivate it manually.

Safety

Seat belts

Front seat belts

Seat belt reels with reversible

pretension

This system provides automatic adjustment of

the tension of the driver's and passenger's seat

belts after fastening, once the vehicle's speed

is above 6 mph (10 km/h).

In addition, as soon as the system detects a

potentially dangerous driving situation, this

system reacts by drawing in slack in the belt,

(for example, under heavy or sharp braking or

sudden avoiding manoeuvres). By automatically

increasing the tension of the seat belts, the

system holds the driver and passenger against

their seat backrests.

Front seat belt anchorage height

adjustment

ꢀ

To adjust the height of the anchorage point,

squeeze the control and slide it up or down

to the desired notch.

Once the driving situation returns to normal, the

belt reel is released: the belt tension returns to

the initial level of comfort.

The front seat belts are fitted with a

pretensioning and force limiting system.

This system improves safety in the front

seats in the event of a front or side impact.

Depending on the severity of the impact, the

pretensioning system instantly tightens the seat

belts against the body of the occupants.

The pretensioning seat belts are active when

the ignition is on.

Deactivation of the passenger's airbag

causes deactivation of the reversible

seat belt reel on the passenger's side.

The force limiter reduces the pressure of the

seat belt on the chest of the occupant, so

improving their protection.

Never allow a child to travel on your lap.

The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel

permitting automatic adjustment of the length

of the strap to your size. The seat belt is

stowed automatically when not in use.

Before and after use, ensure that the seat

belt is reeled in correctly.

The lower part of the strap must be

positioned as low as possible on the pelvis.

The upper part must be positioned in the

hollow of the shoulder.

The inertia reels are fitted with an automatic

locking device which comes into operation in

the event of a collision, emergency braking

or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release

the device by pulling firmly on the strap and

releasing it so that it reels in slightly.

In accordance with current safety

regulations, for all repairs on your vehicle,

go to a qualified workshop with the skills and

equipment needed, which a CITROËN dealer

is able to provide.

Have your seat belts checked regularly by

a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop,

particularly if the straps show signs of

damage.

Clean the seat belt straps with soapy

water or a textile cleaning product, sold by

CITROËN dealers.

After folding or moving a seat or rear bench

seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned

and reeled in correctly.

In the event of an impact

Depending on the nature and

seriousness of the impact, the

pretensioning device may be deployed

before and independently of the airbags.

Deployment of the pretensioners is

accompanied by a slight discharge of

harmless smoke and a noise, due to the

activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge

incorporated in the system.

In all cases, the airbag warning lamp

comes on.

Following an impact, have the seat belts

system checked, and if necessary replaced,

by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified

workshop.

234

Safety

Airbags

System designed to maximise the safety of the

occupants (with the exception of the rear centre

passenger) in the event of violent collisions.

The airbags supplement the action of the force-

limiting seat belts (with the exception of the

centre rear passenger).

If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors

record and analyse the front and side impacts

sustained in the impact detection zones:

-

in the case of a serious impact, the airbags

are deployed instantly and contribute

towards better protection of the occupants

of the vehicle (with the exception of the rear

centre passenger); immediately after the

impact, the airbags deflate rapidly so that

they do not hinder visibility or the exit of the

occupants,

Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone.

Deployment of the airbag(s) is

accompanied by a slight emission

of smoke and a noise, due to the

activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge

incorporated in the system.

This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive

individuals may experience slight

irritation.

The noise of the detonation may result

in a slight loss of hearing for a short

time.

6

-

in the case of a minor or rear impact

or in certain roll-over conditions, the

airbags will not be deployed; the seat belt

alone contributes towards ensuring your

protection in these situations.

The airbags do not operate when the

ignition is switched off.

This equipment will only deploy once.

If a second impact occurs (during the

same or a subsequent accident), the

airbag will not be deployed again.

235

Safety

Front airbags

To assure the safety of your child,

the passenger's front airbag must be

deactivated when you install a "rear

facing" child seat on the front passenger

seat.

Otherwise, the child would risk being

seriously injured or killed if the airbag

were deployed.

System which protects the driver and front

passenger in the event of a serious front impact

in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and

thorax.

The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the

steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag is

fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.

Reactivation

When you remove the child seat, with the

ignition off, turn the switch to the "ON"

position to reactivate the airbag and so assure

the safety of your front passenger in the event

of an impact.

Deactivation

Only the passenger's front airbag can be

deactivated.

Deployment

The airbags are deployed, except the passenger's

front airbag if it is deactivated, in the event of a

serious front impact to all or part of the front impact

zone A, in the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle

on a horizontal plane and directed from the front to

the rear of the vehicle.

When the ignition is switched on,

this warning lamp comes on in the

instrument panel for approximately

one minute to signal that the front

airbag is activated.

ꢀ

With the ignition off, insert the key in the

passenger airbag deactivation switch.

Turn it to the "OFF" position.

Remove the key keeping the switch in the

new position.

ꢀ

The front airbag inflates between the thorax and

head of the front occupant of the vehicle and the

steering wheel, driver's side, and the dashboard,

passenger's side to cushion their forward movement.

When the ignition is on, this warning

lamp comes in the instrument

panel. It stays on while the airbag is

deactivated.

horizontal plane and directed from the outside

towards the inside of the vehicle.

If this warning lamp comes on in the

instrument panel, accompanied by an

audible signal and a message, contact

a CITROËN dealer or a qualified

workshop to have the system checked.

The airbags may no longer be deployed

in the event of a serious impact.

Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and

the upper passenger compartment area.

The curtain airbag inflates between the front or

rear occupant of the vehicle and the windows.

In the event of a minor impact or bump

on the side of the vehicle or if the

vehicle rolls over, the airbag may not be

deployed.

In the event of a rear or front collision,

the curtain airbag is not deployed.

239

Safety

For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:

Sit in a normal upright position.

Front airbags

Lateral airbags

Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.

Do not leave anything between the

occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,

object...). This could hamper the operation of

the airbags or injure the occupants.

After an accident or if the vehicle has been

stolen or broken into, have the airbag

systems checked.

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.

If possible, 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.

Use only approved covers on the seats,

compatible with the deployment the lateral

airbags. For information on the range of seat

covers suitable for your vehicle, you can

contact a CITROËN dealer.

Refer to the "Accessories" section.

Do not fix or attach anything to the seat

backs (clothing...). This could cause injury

to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is

deployed.

All work on the airbag system must be

carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a

qualified workshop.

Do not sit with the upper part of the body any

nearer to the door than necessary.

Even if all of the precautions mentioned

are observed, a risk of injury or of minor

burns to the head, chest or arms when an

airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. The

bag inflates almost instantly (within a few

milliseconds) then deflates within the same

time discharging the hot gas via openings

provided for this purpose.

Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This

could cause injury to the head if the curtain

airbag is deployed.

If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the

grab handles installed on the roof, they play

a part in securing the curtain airbags.

"ISOFIX" mountings

latest ISOFIX regulations.

The seats, represented below, are fitted with regulation ISOFIX mountings:

To secure the child seat to the TOP TETHER:

-

remove and stow the head restraint before

installing the child seat on this seat (refit it

after the child seat has been removed),

remove the TOP TETHER cover by pulling

at its cut-out,

pass the child seat strap behind the seat

backrest, centred between the holes for the

head restraint rods,

-

secure the upper strap fixing to the ring B,

tighten the upper strap.

The ISOFIX mountings are three rings for each seat:

-

a ring B, located under a cover on the back

of the top of the seat backrest, referred to as

the TOP TETHER for fixing the upper strap.

Its position is indicated by a marking.

The incorrect installation of a child seat

in a vehicle compromises the child's

protection in the event of an accident.

Observe strictly the fitting instructions

provided with the child seat.

Located on the back of the seat backrest, the

top tether is used to secure the upper strap of

child seats that have one. This device limits

forward tipping of the child seat, in the event of

a front impact.

This ISOFIX mounting system ensures fast,

reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in your

vehicle.

-

two rings A, located between the vehicle

seat back and cushion, indicated by a

marking,

The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two

latches which are secured easily on the two

rings A.

Some also have an upper strap (or top tether)

which is attached to ring B.

for fitting ISOFIX child seats to your

vehicle, refer to the table of seating

Advice on child seats

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a

vehicle compromises the child's protection in

the event of an accident.

Remember to fasten the seat belts or the

child seat harnesses keeping the slack in

relation to the child's body to a minimum,

even for short journeys.

For optimum installation of the "forward

facing" child seat, ensure that the back of

the child seat is as close as possible to the

backrest of the vehicle's seat, or in contact

if possible

As a safety precaution, do not leave:

Children at the front

-

one or more children alone and

unsupervised in a vehicle,

a child or an animal in a vehicle which

is exposed to the sun, with the windows

closed,

The legislation on carrying a child on the

front passenger seat is specific to each

country. Refer to the legislation in force in

your country.

Deactivate the passenger's airbag when a

"rearward facing" child seat is installed on

the front seat. Otherwise, the child would risk

being seriously injured or killed if the airbag

were deployed.

-

the keys within reach of children inside

the vehicle.

To prevent accidental opening of the doors,

use the "Child lock".

Take care not to open the rear windows by

more than one third.

The head restraint must be removed before

installing a child seat with a backrest on the

passenger seat.

Ensure that the head restraint is stowed or

attached securely so that it is not thrown

around the vehicle in the event of sharp

braking.

To protect young children from the rays of

the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

Installing a booster cushion

The chest part of the seat belt must be

positioned on the child's shoulder without

touching the neck.

Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt

passes correctly over the child's thighs.

CITROËN recommends the use of a booster

seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt

guide at shoulder level.

Refit the head restraint as soon as the child

seat is removed.
