Changing the battery
Battery ref.: CR1620/3 volts. ) Unclip the casing by inserting a coin at the
notch and rotating.
) Slide the flat battery out of its location.
) Slide the new battery into its location
observing the original direction.
) Clip the casing in place, then the chrome
finisher.
) Reinitialise the remote control.
If the battery is flat, you are
informed by lighting of this warning
lamp in the instrument panel, an audible signal
and a message in the multifunction screen.
) Unfold the key.
) Release the chrome finisher by pressing on
lug A.
) Maintain pressure on lug A and remove the
chrome finisher by sliding it off at 45°.

Yes...

are you sure? i have the english version, not american? Or German?

[cyclone]

The English version and German are just translations of the French one, nothing different or special, and by the way I have the English handbook not German.

PS I would have thought you would be smart enough to know they do not sell Citroens in America

Wait........ there's a handbook ??? :confused: Does everyone get one cyclone ?

[cyclone]

No they do not. I believe it is an EU directive that only people that care to properly operate and maintain the moderately expensive machine that they have purchased be given the handbook. The rest of the I like to revel in my ignorance crowd has to do without. This saves the natural resources of the world that would otherwise just be wasted

[lfcrule1972]

Thanks - that clarifies the position a lot !

[Chris_Blue]

As you have a handbook Cyclone, you can answer all the questions on the Forum, and be helpful.

I like to provide an equal measure of helpfulness and sarcasm.

A better place to view the handbook is either through the website MyCitroen or here - http://service.citroen.com/ddb/index.html

Also have a peek over at the file repository for a video on the easiest way to remove the coloured fob.
