DRIVING -> Steering lock - Ignition - Starter for Your Citroen C6 4 Door Second Generation (2016-2023)

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.
