Accesses
Good practice
Take care not to allow the remote
control to come into contact with
grease, dust, rain or a damp
environment.
A heavy object attached to the key
(keyring, ...) weighing on the shaft of
the key in the switch, may cause a
malfunction.
REMOTE CONTROL
Programming the remote control
Following changing of the remote
control battery or disconnection of the

Accesses
READY TO SET OFF
When purchasing a second-hand
vehicle:
- have the keys memorised by a
CITROËN dealer to ensure that
the keys in your possession are
the only ones which can start the
vehicle.
Good practice
Do not make any modifi cations to the
electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even
when it is in your pocket, may result in
involuntary unlocking of the doors.
The simultaneous use of other
high frequency equipment (mobile
telephones, domestic alarms…), may
interfere with the operation of the
remote control temporarily.
The remote control does not operate
while the key is in the ignition, even if
the ignition is off.
As a safety precaution (with children
on board), remove the key from the
ignition when leaving the vehicle, even
for a short time.
ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER
All of the keys contain an electronic
ALARM
immobiliser device.
This device locks the engine supply
system. It is activated automatically
when the key is removed from the
ignition.
After the ignition is switched on, a
dialogue is established between the
key and the electronic immobiliser
system.
The metal part of the key must be
unfolded correctly for correct dialogue
to take place.
If you lose your keys
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the
vehicle's V5 registration document and
your identifi cation document.
A CITROËN dealer will be able
to retrieve the key code and
the transponder code so that a
replacement key can be ordered.
If fi tted on your vehicle, this provides
two types of protection:
- exterior protection: it sounds if a
front/rear door or the bonnet is
opened.
- interior protection: it sounds if
the volume inside the passenger
compartment changes (breaking of
a window or a movement inside the
vehicle).
If your vehicle is fi tted with a separation
partition, the interior protection is not
active in the load space.
Locking the vehicle with
complete alarm
Setting the alarm
- Switch off the ignition and get out of
the vehicle.
- Set the alarm within fi ve minutes of
getting out of the vehicle, by locking
or deadlocking using the remote
control. The red diode, located
on the button, fl ashes once per
second.
Accesses
FRONT DOORS
Disarming
- Unlock the vehicle with the remote
control or switch on the ignition, the
red diode goes out.
Locking the vehicle with
exterior protection only
If, while you are away from the vehicle,
you wish to leave a window partially
open or a pet inside the vehicle, you
should choose exterior protection only.
- Switch off the ignition.
- In the next ten seconds,
press the button until
the red diode is on
continuously.
- Get out of the vehicle.
- Within the next fi ve minutes, set
the alarm by locking or deadlocking
using the remote control (the red
diode fl ashes once a second).
Triggering
The siren sounds, the direction indicators
fl ash for approximately 30 seconds and
the red diode fl ashes rapidly.
- To switch it off, insert the key and
switch on the ignition.

times in succession (when triggered
for the eleventh time) it is deactivated.
Repeat the rules for setting the alarm.
Locking the vehicle without alarm
- Insert the key in the lock on the
driver’s door and lock it.
Do not set the alarm when washing
your vehicle.
Failure of the remote control
When the alarm is set but the remote
control does not operate:
- Unlock the doors with the key and
open the door. The alarm is triggered.
- Switch on the ignition in the
next ten seconds. The alarm is
disarmed.
Incorrect operation
When the ignition is switched on, if the
red diode remains on for ten seconds,
there is a fault in the siren connection.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked.
Automatic setting of the alarm
Depending on the country in which
the vehicle is sold, the alarm is set
automatically approximately 2 minutes
after the last door is closed.
To prevent triggering of the alarm when
a door is opened, it is imperative to
press the remote control unlocking
button again.
Do not make any modifi cations
to the alarm system as this could
cause faults.
From the outside

FUEL GAUGE
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
The fuel level is tested each time the
key is turned to the "running" position.
The gauge is positioned on:
- 1: the fuel tank is full,
approximately 60 litres.
- 0: the reserve is now being
used, the warning light comes on
continuously. The reserve when
the warning fi rst comes on is
approximately 8 litres.
The needle is positioned before the
red zone: normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot
climatic conditions, the needle may
move close to the red graduations.
What you should do if the needle
enters the red zone:
Reduce your speed or let the engine
run at idle.
What you should do if the warning
light comes on:
- stop immediately, switch off the
ignition. The fan may continue to
operate for a certain time up to
approximately 10 minutes,
- wait for the engine to cool down in
order to check the coolant level and
top it up if necessary.
As the cooling system is pressurised,
follow this advice in order to avoid any
risk of scalding:
- wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before
carrying out any work,
- unscrew the cap by 1/4 turn to
allow the pressure to drop,
- when the pressure has dropped,
check the level on the expansion
bottle,
-
if necessary, remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red
zone, have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
Refer to the "Levels" section of

EMISSION CONTROL
EOBD (European On Board
Diagnosis) is a diagnostics
system which complies with,
among others, the standards
concerning authorised
emissions of:
- CO (carbon monoxide),
- HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
- NOx (nitrogen oxides) or particles,
detected by oxygen sensors placed
upstream and downstream of the
catalytic converters.
Therefore, the driver is warned of any
malfunction of this emission control
system by the lighting of this specifi c
warning light on the instrument panel.
There is a risk of damage to the
catalytic converter. Have it checked by
a CITROËN dealer.
Sensors check the tyre pressure during
driving (speed higher than 12 mph
[20 km/h]) and trigger a warning in the
event of a malfunction or puncture.
Any anomaly detected
(fl at or punctured tyre,
malfunction of a sensor)
is indicated by visual
and audible information
and is accompanied
by a message on the
display.
Flat tyre
Check the tyre pressure as soon as
possible.
Puncture
Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden
movement of the steering wheel and
the brakes.
Change the damaged (punctured or
very defl ated) tyre, and have the tyre
pressure checked as soon as possible.
Refer to the "Changing a wheel"
section of chapter 7.
If the damaged tyre is temporarily
stored inside the vehicle, it will again
emit this message to remind you of the
necessity of having it repaired. This will
prevent another warning of the same
type being displayed.
Sensor(s) not detected
Under-infl ation detection is absent
from one (or several) tyre(s). Contact a
CITROËN dealer to replace the faulty
sensor(s).
This message is also displayed when
one of the tyres is away from the
vehicle (being repaired) or when a
wheel without a sensor is fi tted.
All repairs and changing of tyres on a
wheel fi tted with this system must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is a driving aid which does
not take the place of vigilance or the
responsibility of the driver.
This system does not remove the need
to have the tyre pressure checked
regularly (including the spare wheel), to
ensure that the dynamic performance
of the vehicle remains at its best and
to avoid premature wear of the tyres,
in particular in the case of arduous
driving (heavy load, high speed).
The system may temporarily be
disturbed by radio broadcasts on a
frequency close to it.

SERVICE INDICATOR
This programmes service intervals
according to the use of the vehicle.
More than 1 000 miles/km before the
next service is due
Example: 4 800 miles/km remain
before the next service is due. When
the ignition is switched on and for a
few seconds, the display shows:
A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the oil level is displayed,
then the total distance recorder
resumes normal operation and the
spanner remains lit. This indicates that
a service should be carried out shortly.
Operation
A few moments after the ignition
has been switched on, the spanner
indicating a service operation lights
up; the display for the total distance
recorder tells you (in round fi gures)
the distance remaining before the next
service.
The points at which a service is due
are calculated from the last indicator
zero reset.
The point at which a service is due is
determined by two parameters:
- the distance travelled,
- the time which has elapsed since
the last service.
The distance remaining before the
next service may be weighted by
the time factor, depending on the
driver's driving habits.
A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the oil level is displayed,
then the total distance recorder
resumes normal operation showing the
total and trip distances.
Less than 1 000 miles/km before the
next service is due
Each time the ignition is switched on
and for a few seconds, the spanner
fl ashes and the number of miles/
kilometres remaining is displayed:
Service overdue
Each time the ignition is
switched on and for a few
seconds, the spanner
fl ashes and the excess
distance is displayed.
With the engine running the
spanner remains lit until the
service has been carried out.
First of the two terms reached: the
spanner also lights up if the two-year
interval has elapsed.
Instruments and controls
Zero re-set
