A new boot foldaway partition

The boot of the C4 features a new partitioning system. This system is designed to isolate and securely hold the objects placed in the boot.

A simple function lets the user fold out the partitions integrated in the boot sill to create three separate compartments.

When folded, these partitions disappear totally into the thickness of the boot sill. When partitioning is not used, the boot regains its full loading volume.

The boot of the C4 can also be fitted with a closed stowage bin on the sides, a stowage net and a range of hooks to hang bags up.


HIGH-TECH COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT

To enhance onboard comfort, the driver can choose from a range of hightech equipment including:

• the NaviDrive telematics system for stress-free driving,
• the JBL hi-fi system for high-level acoustics,
• the Bluetooth hands-free telephone system for safe communication.

Stress-free driving with NaviDrive

The C4 is available with the new-generation NaviDrive telematics system.

It offers a number of essential functions: a GPS navigation system, a GSM dual-band hands-free telephone with access to the address book and audio system (radio and 5-CD stacker). At the same time, passengers can use the screen or voice synthesis function to read the SMS messages received over the phone.

The main functions can be accessed easily using the steering-wheel controls, which can also be used for the voice recognition and synthesis functions. NaviDrive can be controlled by the user`s voice without any preliminary learning time. This feature is very useful for making phone calls, finding your way, or accessing the address book without risk. The system can also be controlled directly using the unit integrated with the dashboard.

The functions are displayed on a black-and-white screen or on a large 16:9 colour screen.

NaviDrive was also designed to offer a number of additional customer services: Citroen Emergency, Citroen Assistance and Citroen On Line.

Working with the GPS and telephone functions, Citroen Emergency makes it possible to locate the vehicle if the driver has an accident or is ill, for example, and to access the services of a call centre.


A customised hi-fi function

JBL, one of the world`s leading audio specialists, has developed a hi-fi system specially for the C4. The new system is designed to offer customised acoustics of superb quality.

The hi-fi system comprises ten loudspeakers in six locations, together with a subwoofer that is fitted in the boot. The presence of the subwoofer in the boot provides wraparound sound quality and an extremely faithful reproduction of musical material.

The system is controlled by an amplifier located under the front passenger seat. This unit is parametered with the acoustic settings defined and optimised for the cabin of the C4. Both driver and passengers enjoy excellent sound quality, along with acoustic reproduction that is perfectly adapted to their environment in all circumstances.
