Modern vehicles increasingly feature electronic systems for engine management and accessory services. For the maintenance and monitoring of these systems, a specific connection has been provided to communicate between the various control units installed in the vehicle and the management and diagnostic programs installed on laptops or tablets.

To find the OBD2 port on the Citroen C5, open the small glove compartment to the left of the steering column, unclip it by pulling firmly downwards, and you will see the socket on the rear panel.
