Safety

Child seats

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
Check that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack in
relation to the child's body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
For the installation of a child seat using a
seat belt, ensure that this is well tensioned
on the child seat and that it is holding the
child seat firmly against the seat of your
vehicle. If your front passenger seat is
adjustable, move it forward if necessary.
At the rear seats, always leave sufficient
space between the front seat and:
- a rearward facing child seat,
- the feet of a child seated in a forward

facing child seat.

Recommendations

For this, move the front seat forward and if
necessary straighten its backrest.
For optimum installation of the forward facing
child seat, ensure that the back of the child
seat is as close as possible to the backrest
of the vehicle's seat, or in contact if possible.
The head restraint must be removed before
installing a child seat with a backrest on the
passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stowed or
attached securely so that it is not thrown
around the vehicle in the event of sharp
braking.
Refit the head restraint as soon as the child
seat is removed.

Installing a booster
cushion

As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and

unsupervised in a vehicle,

- a child or an animal in a vehicle which

is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,

- the keys within reach of children inside

the vehicle.

To prevent accidental opening of the doors,
use the child lock.
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
CITROËN recommends the use of a booster
seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt
guide at shoulder level.

The legislation on carrying a child on the
front passenger seat is specific to each
country. Refer to the legislation in force in
the country in which you are driving.
Deactivate the passenger front airbag when
a rearward facing child seat is installed on
the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the
child would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were deployed.

Fuel

Capacity of the tank: approximately 57 litres (petrol) or 55 litres (Diesel).

Low fuel level

Refuelling

When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible warning and a message and
the last bar of the fuel gauge comes
on in orange.

Take care to select the pump that delivers

the correct type of fuel for your vehicle.

Introduce the nozzle so as to push in the

metal non-return flap A.

Make sure that the nozzle is pushed in as

far as possible before starting to refuel
(risk of blowback).

Maintain this position throughout the

refuelling operation.

Push the fuel flap to close it.

If you are filling your tank to the top, do
not persist after the 3rd cut-off; this could
cause malfunctions.

A label on the inside of the fuel filler flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine type.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.

When it first comes on, about 6 litres of fuel
remain in the tank.
Until sufficient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the ignition
is switched on, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message. This audible warning
and message are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops towards "0".
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out.

Opening the filler flap may result in an inrush of
air. This is entirely normal and results from the
sealing of the fuel system.

With the vehicle unlocked, press the rear

edge of the flap to open it (the filler cap is a
part of it).

With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the START/STOP
button.

263

Practical information

C4-Picasso-II_en_Chap07_info-pratiques_ed02-2016

The petrol or Diesel engine of your vehicle is
fitted with a catalytic converter, a device which
helps to reduce the level of harmful emissions
in the exhaust gases.
For petrol engines, you must use unleaded
fuel.
The filler neck is narrower, allowing only
unleaded petrol nozzles to be introduced.

If you have put in the wrong fuel
for your vehicle, you must have the
fuel tank drained and filled with
the correct fuel before starting the
engine.

Fuel cut-off

Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device
which cuts off the fuel supply in the event of a
collision.

Misfuel prevention (Diesel)*

When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into
the fuel filler neck of a Diesel vehicle, it comes
into contact with the flap. The system remains
closed and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.

Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of
engine damage that can result from filling with the wrong fuel.

It remains possible to use a fuel can to
fill the tank.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can
in direct contact with the flap of the
misfuel prevention device and pour
slowly.

Travelling abroad

As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may
be different in other countries, the
presence of the misfuel prevention
device may make refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we
recommend that you check with the
CITROËN dealer network, whether your
vehicle is suitable for the fuel pumps in
the country in which you want to travel.

* Depending on the country of sale.

Snow chains

In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.

The snow chains must be fitted only
to the front wheels. They must never
be fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels.

Advice on installation

If you have to fit the chains during a

journey, stop the vehicle on a flat surface
on the side of the road.

Apply the parking brake and position any

wheel chocks to prevent movement of your
vehicle.

Fit the chains following the instructions

provided by the manufacturer.

Move off gently and drive for a few

moments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50 km/h).

Stop your vehicle and check that the snow

chains are correctly tightened.

Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
chains and the maximum running speed
authorised.

Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road surface. If your vehicle is fitted
with alloy wheels, check that no part of
the chain or its fixings is in contact with
the wheel rim.

It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry surface.
