DRIVING for Your Citroen C6 4 Door Second Generation (2016-2023)

REMOTE CONTROL  
CENTRAL UNLOCKING  
A press on button A unlocks your vehicle.  
A
C
B
D
II  
This operation is conrmed by the rapid ashing of the direction indicators  
and the lighting of the interior lamp (if the function is activated). It can also  
deploy the exterior rear view mirrors.  
CENTRAL LOCKING - CLOSING OF WINDOWS AND SUN  
ROOF - DEADLOCKING  
A short press on button B locks your vehicle.  
A long press on button B locks your vehicle and closes the windows  
and the sun roof.  
Two successive presses on button B deadlocks the vehicle. It is then  
impossible to open the doors from either inside or outside the vehicle.  
Note:  
The simultaneous use of other  
high frequency equipment  
(mobile telephones, domestic  
alarms, etc.) may momentar-  
ily hinder the operation of the  
remote control.  
This operation is conrmed by the direction indicators illuminating for approx.  
2 seconds and by the interior lamp switching off. This also folds the exterior  
rear view mirrors.  
If any of the doors, or the boot, is open or not properly closed, the central  
locking does not operate.  
If there is a permanent fault,  
the remote control has to be  
reinitialised. See "Changing  
the remote control battery".  
If closing the windows and sun roof using the remote control,  
the user must make sure that no person is preventing the  
windows and/or sun roof from closing properly.  
It is dangerous to operate the deadlocking when a person  
is in the vehicle as unlocking is impossible from the inside  
(without the remote control).

REMOTE CONTROL  
GUIDE-ME-HOME LIGHTING  
FOLDING AND EJECTING THE KEY  
Button D is for folding and ejecting the key from its housing in the remote  
control.  
If you do not press on button D, you could damage the key mechanism.  
A press on button C operates the  
guide-me-home lighting (illumina-  
tion of the sidelamps and dipped  
beams for approx. one minute).  
II  
A second press prior to the end of  
this period cancels the guide-me-  
home lighting.  
Changing the remote control battery  
Unclip the cover to gain access to the battery.  
Battery: CR0523 - 3 V.  
LOCATING OF THE VEHICLE  
After a change of battery, it may be necessary to re-initialise the remote  
control. To do that, switch on the ignition and immediately press button B  
on your remote control to trigger the action desired. This may take some  
ten seconds.  
Note: Make a careful note of the numbers for the keys and for the remote  
control on the ASSISTANCE card. Keep this in a safe place.  
To locate the vehicle in a carpark,  
press button B, the interior lamps  
come on and the direction indica-  
tors ash for a few seconds. The  
vehicle remains locked.  
Do not throw away the old batteries. They should be returned to a  
CITROËN dealer or deposited at a recognised collection point (a camera  
shop, for example).  
Except when reinitialising, the remote control cannot function while the key is in the ignition,  
even when switched off.  
Warning: by inadvertently actioning the remote control, when for example it is in your pocket,  
you 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.  
Only use batteries that are identical or equivalent to those approved by CITROËN.

KEYS  
CENTRAL LOCKING USING THE KEY  
A brief action with the key locks the vehicle.  
II  
Deadlocking: Central locking using the key  
A second action straightaway with the key deadlocks the vehicle. It is then  
impossible to open the doors from either inside or outside the vehicle.  
Note:  
With the vehicle stationary and the engine switched off, locking is sig-  
nalled by the ashing of the interior locking control warning lamp.  
If any of the doors, or the boot, is open or not properly closed, the cen-  
tral locking does not operate.  
ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER  
KEY  
The key operates all the vehicle’s  
locks as well as the ignition.  
Note: For safety reasons, a buzzer  
will sound if you have switched off  
the ignition and opened the driver’s  
door without having removed the  
ignition key.  
The key can be used to deactivate  
the front passenger’s airbag. See  
"Airbags".  
ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER  
The ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER device locks the engine supply system.  
The system activates automatically as the key is removed from the ignition.  
All the vehicle’s keys contain an electronic immobiliser device.  
After you switch on the ignition, a dialogue starts between the key and the  
electronic immobiliser device.  
If the key is not recognised, you cannot start the vehicle.  
If this occurs, leave your vehicle immobilised and contact a CITROËN  
dealer.  
It is dangerous to operate the deadlocking when a person is in the vehicle as unlocking is impossible  
from the inside (without the remote control).  
The key number is on the label attached to the key.  
Should you lose your key or remote control, a CITROËN dealer can supply replacements.  
If you unlock your vehicle using the key because of a problem with the battery, be aware that  
opening/closing a door with the window closed can seriously damage the glass, even to the point  
of breaking it. See "Access".

ANTI-INTRUSION ALARM  
DEACTIVATION OF THE  
ALARM USNG THE REMOTE  
CONTROL  
A
II  
The alarm is disarmed when you  
unlock the vehicle (with a press on  
button A on the remote control).  
DEACTIVATION OF THE  
ALARM WITH THE KEY  
Unlock the doors with the key. The  
siren triggers. Enter the vehicle,  
insert the key in the ignition and  
turn it to the drive position to stop  
the siren. Otherwise the siren  
will continue for approximately  
30 seconds.  
The installation also has a siren,  
and a warning lamp on the con-  
trol 1 which is visible from outside  
the vehicle, indicating the three  
possible statuses of the alarm:  
Your vehicle may be equipped with  
anANTI-INTRUSIONALARM. This  
provides:  
Exterior perimeter protection  
by means of detectors on the  
vehicle access points (doors,  
boot, bonnet) as well as on the  
electrical supply.  
Alarm not active (disarmed),  
warning lamp off.  
Alarm active (armed), the  
warning lamp ashes slowly.  
Alarm triggered (signalling an  
intrusion), the warning lamp  
ashes rapidly if the alarm is  
deactivated by a press on the  
control A. It stops as soon as  
you switch on the ignition.  
Interior volumetric protection  
by means of ultrasonic sensors  
(detecting movement inside the  
passenger compartment). This  
can be deactivated using the  
control 1  
Note: If there is a malfunction,  
the warning lamp remains perma-  
nently on.  
26  
ANTI-INTRUSION ALARM  
OPERATING THE ALARM  
First make sure all the doors are closed.  
The alarm is armed by pressing button B on the remote  
control.  
With the alarm armed, the protections are active after  
5 seconds (perimeter) and 45 seconds (volumetric).  
When the alarm is armed (on standby), any intrusion  
will trigger the siren for 30 seconds, accompanied by  
the direction indicators lighting up.  
The alarm then goes back on standby, but the trigger-  
ing remains memorised and is signalled by the rapid  
ashing of the warning lamp on control 1 after you have  
deactivated the alarm with a press on the unlocking  
button A. The ashing stops when you switch on the  
ignition.  
The siren is also triggered if there is a cutting of the  
electrical supply. To stop it, restore the electrical supply  
then press on the unlocking button A  
Note:  
Deactivating the volumetric detection  
You can operate the alarm with perimeter protection  
only, by deactivating the volumetric protection (if for  
example you wish to leave an animal in the vehicle).  
For this, switch off the ignition then immediately press  
button 1 for at least one second.  
The warning lamp on button 1 should come perma-  
nently on. It will start to ash when the alarm is armed.  
Arm the alarm by locking your vehicle with the remote  
control.  
It is recommended to deactivate the volumetric detec-  
tion when washing the vehicle in order to prevent the  
random triggering of the alarm.  
II  
Automatic activation (according to destination)  
The alarm is armed automatically, 2 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 essential to press  
the unlocking button A again on the remote control.  
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.  
Note: The siren is automatically deactivated (for example  
for disconnecting the battery) as soon as the vehicle is  
unlocked using the remote control.

STEERING LOCK – IGNITION – STARTER  
Depending on your vehicle ver-  
sion, the following warning lamps  
are tested:  
STARTING AND STOPPING  
THE ENGINE  
See "Driving".  
II  
ECONOMY MODE  
In order not to discharge the bat-  
tery while the engine is stopped,  
your vehicle goes automatically  
into economy mode after a maxi-  
mum of 30 minutes. Economy  
mode is indicated by a message  
on the screen.  
The electrical components relating  
to comfort and also the headlamps  
(not sidelamps or hazard warning  
lamps) cut out automatically. To  
reactivate them, it is necessary to  
start the engine.  
If one of these warning lamps does  
not light up, this indicates a mal-  
function.  
D: STARTING  
Release the key as soon as the  
engine starts. Never turn it while  
the engine is running.  
S: STEERING LOCK  
To unlock the steering, gently move  
the steering wheel while turning the  
key, without exerting undue force.  
When you remove the key, turn  
your steering wheel to lock the  
steering. The key can only be  
removed when in position S  
M: DRIVE POSITION  
The steering is unlocked (by turning  
the key in position M, if necessary  
move the steering wheel).  
NEVER REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY BEFORE THE ENGINE  
HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP.  
IT IS ESSENTIAL ALWAYS TO DRIVE WITH THE ENGINE  
RUNNING, SO AS TO RETAIN STEERING AND BRAKING  
ASSISTANCE (risk of the steering lock engaging and loss  
of safety features).  
Do not hang a heavy object on the key; it could pull the key out  
of alignment in the switch and could cause a malfunction.  
When stationary, having removed the key, carefully turn the  
steering wheel if you wish to lock the steering.  
28  
DRIVING – STARTING THE ENGINE  
Check that the automatic gear selector is in position P or N.  
ADVICE  
II  
DIESEL  
Starting the engine  
Turn the key to the drive position.  
Wait for the preheater warning lamp  
to go out, if it is on, then action the  
starter until the engine starts (not  
more than 10 seconds).  
If the engine does not start, switch  
off the ignition.  
Recommence the operation.  
Note: During starting, do not touch  
the accelerator.  
Diesel vehicle with turbo-  
chargers  
Never stop the engine without  
rst having allowed it to idle for a  
few seconds, this being the time  
required for the turbochargers to  
return to a normal speed.  
Do not "ick" the accelerator at the  
moment you switch off the ignition  
as this could seriously damage the  
turbochargers.  
DO NOT RUN THE ENGINE IN A CLOSED SPACE OR IN ONE  
THAT IS INSUFFICIENTLY VENTILATED.

Range  
This is the distance that can still be travelled on the  
amount of fuel remaining in the tank. When the dis-  
tance that can still be travelled is less than around  
30 km (or 18 miles), only four dashes are displayed.  
Instantaneous consumption  
This is the result from the consumption recorded within  
the last 2 seconds. This function will only display  
above 30 km/h (18 mph).  
Distance to be travelled  
To enter it, see "Multifunction displays".  
Distance travelled  
This is the distance that has been travelled since the  
last reset to zero of the Journey selected.  
Average consumption  
This is the relationship between the fuel consumed  
and the distance travelled since the last reset to zero  
of the trip computer.  
Average speed  
This is obtained, from the last reset to zero of the trip  
computer, by dividing the distance travelled by the time  
taken (with ignition switched on).

After this time, if one or more of the rear belts are not fastened:  
The driver's and the front and rear  
passengers' seats have sensors  
that detect non-fastening/unfas-  
tening of the seat belts.  
The fastened/non-fastened status  
of the seat belts for each type of  
seat is indicated by the illumination

ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME  
ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESP) AND TRACTION  
CONTROL (ASR)  
These systems are closely associated with ABS and additional to it. In the  
event of a loss of control of the vehicle by the driver, the ESP system acts  
automatically on one or more wheels and also on the engine to bring the  
vehicle back on trajectory. The ASR system optimises traction and prevents  
wheel spin by acting on the brakes of the driving wheels as well as on the  
engine. It also improves steering stability during acceleration.

driving safety but is not in place to  
encourage the driver to take addi-  
tional risks or to drive at excessive  
speeds.  
DEACTIVATION  
The operation of this system is  
assured provided that the manufac-  
turer’s recommendations concern-  
ing the wheels (tyres and rims),  
braking components and electrical  
components are observed, as well  
as the tting and repair procedures  
used by CITROËN dealers and  
qualied workshops.  
In exceptional conditions (vehicle stuck in snow, soft ground, etc.) it may  
prove useful to deactivate the ESP/ASR systems to allow the wheels to  
spin and thus regain traction.  
Press on button A, the "ESP/ASR" warning lamp, as well as the lamp on  
the button A, light up. The ESP/ASR systems are no longer active.  
The ESP/ASR systems will activate again:  
Automatically after the ignition has been switched off.  
Automatically when you drive at above approx. 50 km/h (approx. 30 mph).  
Manually with another press on button A  
Following an accident, have the  
system checked by a CITROËN  
dealer or a qualied workshop.  
OPERATIONAL ANOMALY  
Should there be a system malfunction, the "ESP/ASR" warning lamp will  
light up.  
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualied workshop to have the system  
checked.  
73  
BRAKES  
If the Electric Parking Brake is off, the lighting of this warning lamp in conjunction with the STOP w  
ing lamp indicates that the brake uid level is low or that the braking distributor is malfunctioning. It is  
-
essential to stop the vehicle. Alert a CITROËN dealer or a qualied workshop as soon as possible.  
II  
ABS system  
The ABS system enhances your safety by preventing the wheels from locking in the event of sudden braking  
or in conditions of poor road adherence. It enables you to retain control of the steering.  
The functioning capability of all the electrical components essential to the ABS is monitored electronically 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.  
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 journey shows that the ABS system is inactive.  
In both cases, the normal braking system remains efcient, exactly as on a vehicle without ABS. However, to restore  
the level of safety provided by correct operation of the ABS, the vehicle should be inspected as soon as possible by  
a CITROËN dealer or a qualied workshop.  
On roads with poor adherence (chippings, snow, ice etc.), it is always imperative to drive with prudence.  
SYSTEM OF EMERGENCY BRAKING ASSISTANCE  
The emergency braking assistance system helps you to attain the required braking pressure more rapidly, thus to  
reduce the stopping distance. It operates depending on the speed of action on the brake pedal, decreasing the  
resistance to this action. To prolong this action of the emergency braking assistance system, simply keep your foot  
on the brake pedal.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER SYSTEM  
In addition to the catalytic converter, this lter contributes actively to the preserving of air quality, by collecting the  
polluting particles that have not been burnt off. Black exhaust fumes are thus eliminated.  
II  
CLOGGING OF THE PARTICLE FILTER  
Clogging is caused by the particle lter starting to be saturated (owing to exceptionally long periods  
spent driving in urban conditions: low speeds, trafc jams, etc.).  
In order to regenerate the lter you are advised to drive as soon as possible, when trafc conditions allow, at a speed  
of 60 km/h (37 mph) or more for at least 5 minutes. If the problem persists, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualied  
workshop.  
Note: If the vehicle has been running for long periods at very low speeds or at idle, vapour emissions may be seen  
coming from the exhaust under acceleration. These have no consequences for the running of the vehicle or for the  
environment.  
Simultaneous lighting of the SERVICE and depollution system warning lamps indicates an  
increased risk of clogging.  
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualied workshop as soon as possible.  
DIESEL ADDITIVE LEVEL  
If the additive level is low, it is necessary to top up the additive level.  
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualied workshop as soon as possible.
