Locking the vehicle

 

 

Normal locking

►  Press the locking button.

The locking, and the activation of the alarm 

depending on version, is confirmed by the 

lighting of the direction indicators.

An access (door or boot) that is not 

properly closed prevents locking of the 

vehicle. However, if the vehicle is fitted with 

an alarm, it will be activated after 45 seconds.

If the vehicle is unlocked but the doors or boot 

are not subsequently opened, the vehicle 

will automatically lock itself again after about 

30 seconds. If the vehicle is fitted with an 

alarm, it will be reactivated automatically.

Locating your vehicle

This function allows you to identify your vehicle 

from a distance, particularly in poor light. Your 

vehicle must be locked.

►  Press the closed padlock button on 

the remote control.

This will switch on the courtesy lights and the 

direction indicators will flash for a few seconds.

Advice

Remote control

The remote control is a sensitive, high-

frequency device; avoid handling it in your 

pocket, due to the risk of unintentionally 

unlocking the vehicle.

Avoid pressing the remote control buttons 

while out of range of the vehicle, due to 

the risk of rendering the remote control 

inoperative. It would then be necessary to 

reset it.

The remote control does not work when the 

key is in the ignition switch, even when the 

ignition is switched off.

Anti-theft protection

Do not modify the electronic vehicle 

immobiliser, as this might result in 

malfunctions.

Locking the vehicle

Driving with the doors locked could make 

it more difficult for the emergency services 

to enter the passenger compartment in an 

emergency.

As a safety precaution, remove the key from 

the ignition when leaving the vehicle, even for 

a short time.

Purchasing a second-hand vehicle

Have the key codes memorised by a 

CITROËN dealer, to ensure that the keys in 

your possession are the only ones able to 

start the vehicle.

Heating and Ventilation

Advice

Using the ventilation and air 

conditioning system

►  To ensure that air is distributed evenly, 

keep the external air intake grilles at the base 

of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the 

air outlets and the air extractor in the boot 

free from obstructions.

►  Do not cover the sunshine sensor located 

on the dashboard; this sensor is used to 

regulate the automatic air conditioning 

system.

►  Operate the air conditioning system for at 

least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to 

keep it in good working order.

►  If the system does not produce cold air, 

switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or 

a qualified workshop.

When towing a large load on a steep gradient 

in high temperatures, switching off the air 

conditioning increases the available engine 

power, enhancing the towing capacity.

Avoid driving for too long with the 

ventilation off or with prolonged operation 

of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and 

deterioration of the air quality!

If the interior temperature is very high 

after the vehicle has stood for a long 

time in the sunshine, air the passenger 

compartment for a few moments.

Put the air flow control at a setting high 

enough to quickly change the air in the 

passenger compartment.

Condensation created by the air 

conditioning results in a discharge of 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly 

normal.

Servicing the ventilation and air 

conditioning system

►  Ensure that the passenger compartment 

filter is in good condition and have the filter 

elements replaced regularly.

We recommend using a composite passenger 

compartment filter. Its specific active additive 

helps protect against polluting gases and bad 

smells.

►  To ensure correct operation of the 

air conditioning system, have it checked 

according to the recommendations in the 

Manufacturer’s service schedule.

Stop & Start

The heating and air conditioning systems 

only operate when the engine is running.

Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start 

system to maintain a comfortable temperature 

in the passenger compartment.
