CITROEN C1 Platinum User manual

VERY IMPORTANT
As the booklet is constantly re-edited, this one only covers vehicles for this
particular model year.
It is therefore necessary to order a new booklet each year and RETAIN THE
OLD ONES.

GENERAL
GENERAL SPECIFICATION : TOWING THE VEHICLE
Vehicle towing : Precautions to be taken
Manual gearbox Piloted manual gearbox
ESSENTIAL : Never tow the vehicles with wheels hanging
(towing by the wheels) .
Vehicle equipped with a piloted manual gearbox
IMPERATIVE : It is necessary to lift the front of the vehicle in order to
tow it, having placed the gear selector in neutral.
If there is a gearbox malfunction or fault, the vehicle may remain
immobilised depending on the seriousness of the fault.
If a gear is engaged, the conditions for immobilisation of the vehicle
may be :
- engine stopped (no starting)
- clutch open (clutched)
IMPERATIVE : If a gear is engaged and it is impossible to disengage
it, it is compulsory to tow the vehicle with the front wheels lifted.
If it not possible to lift the front of the vehicle, there is more than one
way of unjamming the gearbox :
- engaging "N" with the aid of a diagnostic tool
- engaging "N" without the aid of a diagnostic tool

GENERAL
GENERAL SPECIFICATION : TOWING THE VEHICLE
Vehicle towing : Precautions to be taken
Piloted manual gearbox
Engaging "N" with the aid of a diagnostic tool
Preliminary operations :
- Vehicle stationary, engine stopped
- Battery voltage higher than 12.5 volts
- Ignition switched on
- Gear selector on position "N"
Connect the diagnostic tool to the vehicle’s diagnostic socket.
Using the diagnostic tool menus, select :
- "DIAGNOSIS"
- MMT piloted manual gearbox
- Actuator tests
- Gearbox actuator test
- Engaging Neutral
NOTE : The letter "N" should appear in the instrument panel. If not, see
the following solution : engage "N"; without the help of a diagnostic tool.
Engaging "N" without the aid of a diagnostic tool
In this configuration, the gearbox actuator is jammed, gear engaged.
IMPERATIVE : This emergency solution is to be used only where
the above solutions for setting the gearbox actuators using the dia-
gnostic tool have failed (destruction of the gearbox actuator).
Preliminary operations:
Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery.
Remove the blank on the gearbox actuator

"c" 2nd, 4th, reverse gear.
Using a large screwdriver, move the screw (3) to bring the gearbox
actuator to the neutral position.
When this position is reached, "N" is engaged.
Driving
IMPERATIVE : Never drive with the ignition switched off.
Never push the vehicle to attempt to start it (impossible with a
piloted manual gearbox).

GENERAL
GENERAL SPECIFICATION : LIFTING AND SUPPORTING THE VEHICLE
Note on status of the vehicle before lifting
The vehicle should be unloaded before any lifting operation. Never place a loaded vehicle on a jack or on a lift.
When you remove a heavy component, such as the engine or the gearbox, the vehicle’s centre of gravity moves.
Note on use of a 4-column lift
Respect the safety requirements set out in the user instructions.
Immobilise the vehicle with wheel locks.
Note on use of jacks and axle stands
Work on a flat surface and always use wheel blocks.
Use axle stands with rubber blocks "a", as indicated.
Place the jack and the axle stands on the prescribed lifting points on the vehicle. Do not use the jack without axle
stands.
To raise the front wheels, release the parking brake and place blocks at the rear of the rear wheels only. To raise
the rear wheels, place blocks at the front of the front wheels only.
To raise the front wheels only, or the rear wheels only, place blocks on either side of the wheels that are in contact
with the ground.
To relower a vehicle raised at the front, release the parking brake and place blocks at the front of the rear wheels
only. To relower a vehicle raised at the rear, place blocks at the rear of the front wheels only.
"b" : jacking point.
"c" : pantograph jacking point lugs.
"d" : centre of gravity of the vehicle (excluding load).

GENERAL
GENERAL SPECIFICATION : LIFTING AND SUPPORTING THE VEHICLE
Note on use of a 4-point lift with moving arms
IMPERATIVE : Position the safety straps, if placing the vehicle on a lift supported from the jacking points
(risk of the vehicle overbalancing when a heavy component is removed).
Equip the moving arms with rubber blocks as indicated.
To use this lift, align the middle of it as far as possible with the centre of gravity of vehicle.
Present the vehicle as far as possible in the axis of the moving arms. Adjust the moving arms to the
vehicle’s jacking points.
WARNING : Do not raise the vehicle too high, to avoid all risk of instability.
Lock the moving arms while the repairs are being carried out.
Raise the vehicle just off the ground and check that it is stable.
Example :
2-column lift
Place the safety straps [1] under the lift arm and criss-crossing the vehicle
