ReMOTe CONTROL

This operation is conﬁrmed by the

direction indicators illuminating for

approx. ꢁ seconds and by the inte-

rior lamp switching off. This also

folds the exterior rear view mir-

rors.

If any of the doors, or the boot, is

open or not properly closed, the

central locking does not operate.

With the vehicle stationary and the

engine switched off, locking is sig-

nalled by the ﬂashing of the interior

locking control warning lamp.

Central unlocking

A press on button a unlocks your

vehicle.

This is conﬁrmed by rapid ﬂashing

of the direction indicators and light-

ing of the interior lamp (provided

this function is active). This also

deploys the exterior rear view mir-

rors.

can unlock the vehicle without your realising it.

however, if none of the doors is opened within thirty seconds following an unlocking, the doors will

automatically relock.

Warning: there is a risk of damage if the replacement battery is not the correct one.

continue for approximately 30 sec-

onds.

The installation also has a siren,

and a warning lamp on the con-

trol a which is visible from outside

the vehicle, indicating the three

possible statuses of the alarm.

The anti-intrusion alarm provides:

•

exterior perimeter protection by

means of detectors on the vehicle

access points (doors, boot, bon-

net).

•

Alarm not active (disarmed),

warning lamp off.

Alarm active (armed), the warn-

ing lamp ﬂashes slowly.

Alarm triggered (signalling an

intrusion), the warning lamp

ﬂashes rapidly if the alarm is

deactivated by a press on the

control B. It stops as soon as

you switch on the ignition.

•

electrical supply protection.

Interior volumetric protection

by means of ultrasonic sensors

(detecting movement inside the

passenger compartment). This

can be deactivated using the con-

trol a.

•

Anti-lifting protection by means of

sensors.

Note: If there is a malfunction,

the warning lamp remains perma-

nently on.

Lock or deadlock the vehicle with

the remote control locking button.

The siren is also triggered if there

is a cutting of the electrical sup-

ply. To stop it, restore the electrical

supply then press on the unlocking

button B.

Operating the alarm

First make sure all the doors are

closed.

The alarm is armed by pressing

button C on the remote control.

The light on button a ﬂashes once

a second.

Note:

With the alarm armed, the protec-

tions are active after 5 seconds

(perimeter) and 45 seconds (volu-

metric).

When the alarm is armed (on

standby), any intrusion will trigger

the siren for 30 seconds, accom-

panied by the direction indicators

lighting up.

The alarm then goes back on

standby. The triggering remains

memorised. The warning lamp on

button a ﬂashes quickly when the

alarm is deactivated by pressing

the unlocking button B. This ﬂash-

ing stops when you switch on the

ignition.

Note: It is recommended to deacti-

vate the volumetric detection when

washing the vehicle in order to pre-

vent the random triggering of the

alarm.

•

If you want to lock your vehicle

without arming the alarm, just

lock with the key only.

If you lock your vehicle and a

door, or the boot, is still open,

the central locking does not

operate but the alarm will arm

itself after approx. 45 seconds.

•

automatic activation

(depending on country)

The alarm is armed automatically,

ꢁ minutes after the last door, or the

boot, has been closed.

In order to prevent the alarm from

triggering when you open one of

the doors or the boot, it is essen-

tial to press the unlocking button B

again on the remote control.

Note: The siren is automatically

deactivated (for example for dis-

connecting the battery) as soon as

the vehicle is unlocked using the

remote control.

PARTICLe FILTeR

In addition to the catalytic converter, this ﬁlter contributes actively to the preserving of air quality, by collecting the

Clogging is caused by the particle

ﬁlter starting to be saturated (owing

to exceptionally long periods spent

driving in urban conditions : low

speeds, trafﬁc jams, etc.).

Contact a CITROËN dealer as

soon as possible.

In order to regenerate the ﬁlter you

are advised to drive as soon as pos-

sible, when trafﬁc conditions allow,

at a speed of 60 km/h (approx.

aBs system

system of emergency

braking assistance

The emergency braking assistance

system allows you, in an emer-

gency, to achieve the optimum

braking pressure more quickly,

thereby reducing the stopping dis-

tance. It is triggered by the speed

of your action on the brake pedal,

which reduces its resistance. To

prolong this action of the emer-

gency braking assistance system,

simply keep your foot on the brake

pedal.

ii

The ABs system enhances your

safety by preventing the wheels

from locking in the event of sud-

den braking or in conditions of

poor road adherence. It enables

you to retain control of the steer-

ing.

The functioning capability of all

the electrical components essen-

tial to the ABs is monitored elec-

tronically before and during your

journey. The ABs warning lamp

lights up when you switch on the

ignition: it should go out after a few

seconds.

the braking distribution.

it is essential to stop the vehi-

cle.

Consult a CITROËN dealer as

soon as possible.

If the monitoring warning lamp

does not go out, that means

that the ABs has disconnected

because there is a fault. Also, the

fact that the monitoring warning

lamp comes on during the jour-

ney shows that the ABs system is

inactive. In both cases, the normal

braking system remains efﬁcient,

exactly as on a vehicle without

ABs. However, in order for the

security associated with the cor-

rect functioning of the ABs to be

restored, the vehicle should be

examined as soon as possible by

a CITROËN dealer.

On roads with poor adherence

(chippings, snow, ice etc.), it is

always imperative to drive with

prudence.

To aid starting on a gradient, your

vehicle is equipped with a system

which keeps it immobilised for a

short time (about ꢁ seconds), the

approximate time it takes to move

your foot from the brake pedal to

the accelerator pedal.

ii

This function is only active when:

•

The vehicle is completely sta-

tionary, with your foot on the

brake pedal.

On an descending slope, with the

vehicle stationary and reverse

gear engaged, the vehicle is

held for a brief moment when

you release the brake pedal.

On an ascending slope, with the

vehicle stationary, the vehicle

is held for a brief moment when

you release the brake pedal:

•

In particular conditions on a

slope.

With the driver's door closed.

Note: The hill start assist function

cannot be deactivated.

•

If you are in ﬁrst gear or neutral

with a manual gearbox.

The display of the message “Hill

If you are in D or m gear with an

automatic gearbox.

User Precautions:

Do not leave the vehicle while it is being held in the temporary immobilisation hill start assist phase.
