CITROEN C5 Owner's Manual

CITROËN C5

Owner’s handbook

Citroën and Total

A partnership of expertise

For 39 years, the research teams of Citroën and Total have combined their know-how to offer you the best engine/ lubricant combination available.

Cutting edge technology for your benefit.

With Total, you can be sure to have chosen the benchmark oil that best guarantees your Citroën’s performance and lifeexpectancy.

A partnership for the environment

Total oils support Citroën’s advances in fuel economy, and C02 and harmful emission reductions.

The development of new generation oils specially adapted for Particle Filters, like TOTAL ACTIVA/ QUARTZ INEO ECS can reduce C02 emissions by a tonne* and save a tank of fuel each year**.

*Official C02 emissions reduction of 4g per km (approx. 6g per mile). Corresponds to a reduction in C02 emissions of 1 tonne throughout the life of the vehicle, on a private diesel vehicle with an average life expectancy estimated at 250 000 km (approx. 160 000 miles). Source: TOTAL. **Or

30L, average quantity of fuel required to fill a tank at a petrol station. Result obtained using TOTAL

ACTIVA/QUARTZ INEO ECS oil instead of a traditional 15W-40 oil, on a CITROËN C4 1.6HDi, whose average fuel consumption is 58.9 mpg (4.8L/100km), travelling 18 000km (approx. 12 000

miles) per year. Source: TOTAL. .

A partnership of success

Competitive successes in the national rallies of the World Rally Championship bear testament to the performance and efficiency of the Citroën – Total partnership.

Note:

•The simultaneous use of other high frequency equipment (mobile telephones, domestic alarms, etc.) may momentarily hinder the operation of the remote control.

•If there is a permanent fault, the remote control has to be reinitialised. See “Changing remote control batteries”.

22

Central unlocking

A press on button A unlocks your vehicle.

This is confirmed by rapid flashing of the direction indicators and lighting of the interior lamp (provided this function is active). This also deploys the exterior rear view mirrors.

Central locking / Closing of windows and sunroof / Deadlocking

•A short press on button C locks your vehicle.

•A long press on button C locks your vehicle and closes the windows and the sun roof.

•2 successive presses on button C will deadlock the vehicle. It is then impossible to open the doors, either from the inside or from the outside.

This operation is confirmed 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.

With the vehicle stationary and the engine switched off, locking is signalled by the flashing of the interior locking control warning lamp.

Guide-me-home lighting

A press on button B activates the guide-me-home lighting (lighting of the sidelamps, dipped beams, registration plate lights for around 1 minute).

A second press prior to the end of this timing cancels the guide-me- home lighting.

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 inside the vehicle as unlocking is impossible from the inside without the remote control.

R e m o t e c o n t r o l

Electric boot opening

Pressing button E opens the boot.

Locating of the vehicle

To locate the vehicle in a carpark, press button C. Locating of the vehicle is confirmed by:

•The flashing of the direction indicators for a few seconds.

•The interior lighting coming on. The vehicle remains locked.

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.

Changing the remote control battery

Unclip the cover to gain access to the battery.

Battery: CR 0523 de 3 V.

Re-initialisation of the remote control

After a change of battery, it is nec-	II
essary to re-initialise the remote
control. To do that, switch on the
ignition and immediately press but-
ton C of your remote control until
you achieve the desired result.
This may take some ten seconds.

Note: Make a careful note of the numbers for the keys and for the remote control on theASSISTANCE card. Keep this in a safe place.

Do not throw away used batteries. Return them to a CITROËN dealer or take them to an authorised recycling facility (camera shops, etc).

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.

Electronic immobiliser key

The key operates all the vehicle’s locks as well as the ignition.

The key can be used to deactivate the front passenger’s airbag. See “Airbags”.

Central locking using the key

Briefly turn the key in the door lock.

The vehicle is locked.

Deadlocking: Central locking using the key

A second immediate action with the key deadlocks the vehicle. It is then impossible to open the doors from the interior or exterior.

Note:

•With the vehicle stationary and the engine switched off, locking is signalled by the flashing of the interior locking control warning lamp.

•If any of the doors, or the boot, is open or not properly closed, the central locking does not operate.

Electronic immobiliser

The ELECTRONIC IMMOBILI SER 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.

Never attempt to modify the electronic immobiliser’s electrical circuit, as this could render your vehicle undriveable.

It is dangerous to operate the deadlocking when a person is inside 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 the key be lost or modified (addition, cancellation or replacement), you must contact a CITROËN
24	dealer, with all of the vehicle keys in your possession as well as your proof of identity.

The anti-intrusion alarm provides:

•Exterior perimeter protection by means of detectors on the vehicle access points (doors, boot, bonnet).

•Electrical supply protection.

• Interior volumetric protection by means of ultrasonic sensors (detecting movement inside the passenger compartment). This can be deactivated using the control A.

•Anti-lifting protection by means of sensors.

B

The installation also has a siren, and a warning lamp on the control A which is visible from outside the vehicle, indicating the three possible statuses of the alarm.

•Alarm not active (disarmed), warning lamp off.

•Alarm active (armed), the warning 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.

Note: If there is a malfunction, the warning lamp remains permanently on.

Deactivation of the alarm usng the remote control

The alarm is disarmed when you	II
unlock the vehicle (with a press on
button B on the remote control).

Deactivation of the alarm with the key

Operating the alarm

First make sure all the doors are closed.

The alarm is armed by pressing button C 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. The triggering remains memorised. The warning lamp on button A flashes quickly when the alarm is deactivated by pressing the unlocking button B. This flashing 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 B.

Note:

•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.

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).

Deactivation of the volumetric detection

Switch off the ignition.

Within 10 seconds, press button A until the warning lamp remains on permanently.

Exit the vehicle.

Lock or deadlock the vehicle with the remote control locking button.

The light on button A flashes once a second.

Note: It is recommended to deactivate the volumetric detection when washing the vehicle in order to prevent the random triggering of the alarm.

Automatic activation (depending on country)

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 B again on the remote control.
