Deactivation
Either by pressing on the brake
pedal or on the clutch pedal.
Or by pressing button 3 .
Or if either the ESP or the ASR
system is active.
The cruise control is not active if the
gear lever is in neutral.
These actions cause the information
"OFF" to appear on the instrument
panel display.
These actions do not cancel the
cruise speed which remains dis-
played in the instrument panel.
Reactivation
By recall of the memorised
speed
After a disengagement, press on button 3 . Your vehicle automati-
cally returns to the memorised
cruise speed which is displayed
in zone A .
If the memorised cruise speed is higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate to
reach the former.
By selection of the current
speed
Press on button 2 or 4 once the
desired speed has been reached.
The information "OFF" will then
disappear from the instrument
panel display. Overriding the programmed
speed
During the operation of cruise con-
trol, it is always possible to use the
accelerator to go faster than the
cruise speed (for example to over-
take another vehicle). The speed
displayed in zone
A fl a s h e s .
You have only to release the acce-
lerator pedal to return to the cruise
speed.
Return to normal driving
By an action on the control 1 from
position "REG" to position 0 .
By the engine stopping.
The cruise speed previously chosen
is no longer memorised. Operating fault
If there is a malfunction, a message
will display accompanied by an
audible signal and lighting of the
service warning lamp.
Have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer.
If during the operation of cruise
control, the system is unable to
keep within the memorised speed
(for example on a steep descent),
t h e n t h e s p e e d fl a s h e s . A d a p t y o u r
speed as necessary. Cruise control should only be used
when the driving conditions allow
you to drive at a constant speed.
D o n o t u s e i t i n h e a v y t r a f fi c , o r o n
dangerous or slippery roads.
The driver must remain attentive
and in full control of his vehicle.
You are recommended to keep your
feet within range of the pedals.
To avoid any risk of interfering with
the pedals:

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM
System which detects the involun-
t a r y c r o s s i n g o f l o n g i t u d i n a l t r a f fi c
lane markings on the ground (solid
or broken line).
S e n s o r s , fi t t e d b e l o w t h e f r o n t
bumper, trigger a warning if the vehi-
cle drifts over a lane marking (speed
higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
This system is particularly useful on
motorways and main roads. Activation
Press button A , the indicator
lamp comes on.
Deactivation
Press button A again, the indica-
tor lamp switches off.
The status of the system remains
in the memory when the ignition is
switched off.
Detection
You are warned by the vibration of
the driver's seat cushion:
- on the right-hand side, if the marking on the ground has been
crossed on the right,
- on the left-hand side, if the marking on the ground has been crossed
on the left.
No warning is transmitted while the
direction indicator is active and for
approximately 20 seconds after the
direction indicator is switched off.
A warning may be transmitted if a
direction marking (e.g. arrow) or
n o n - s t a n d a r d m a r k i n g ( e . g . g r a f fi t i )
is crossed. Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction, the service
warning lamp comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message on
the multifunction screen.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
The lane departure warning sys-
tem cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the
driver. The detection may be impeded:
- if the sensors are dirty (mud,
snow...),
- if the markings on the ground are worn,
- if there is little contrast between the markings on the ground and
the road surface.

CHECKING LEVELS
Check all of these levels regularly
and top them up if necessary, unless
otherwise indicated.

corresponding circuit checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
Oil level
Draining the engine
Refer to the servicing booklet for de-
tails of the interval for this operation. O i l s p e c i fi c a t i o n
The oil must correspond to your engine
and conform to the manufacturer's rec-
ommendations.
Brake fluid level
Draining the circuit
Refer to the servicing booklet for de-
tails of the interval for this operation.
T h i s fl u i d m u s t b e c h a n g e d r e g u l a r l y .

sively may cause a loss of braking

Coolant level
Draining the circuit
The coolant does not have to be
changed.
F l u i d s p e c i fi c a t i o n
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
The reading will only be
correct if the vehicle is on
level ground and the engine
has been off for more than
15 minutes.
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator on the instrument
panel, or using the dipstick.
Between two oil changes, the con-
sumption should not exceed 0.5 litre
per 600 miles (approx. 1 000 km).
Check this level also between each
scheduled service and before long
journeys. T h e b r a k e fl u i d l e v e l s h o u l d
be close to the "MAX" mark.
If it is not, check the brake
pad wear.
The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm,
the temperature of the coolant is
regulated by the fan. This can oper-
ate with the ignition off.
O n v e h i c l e s w h i c h a r e fi t t e d w i t h

gine is cold.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour
after switching off the engine before
carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, un-
screw the cap by two turns to al-
low the pressure to drop. When the
pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level.
In order to maintain the re-
liability of the engine and
emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine
oil is prohibited.

CHECKS
Unless otherwise indicated, check
these components in accordance
with the Maintenance and Warranty
Guide and in relation to your en-
gine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
Battery The battery does not re-
quire any maintenance.
However, check that the
terminals are clean and
correctly tightened, partic-
ularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the bat-
t e r y , r e f e r t o t h e " P r a c t i c a l i n f o r -
mation" section for details of the
precautions to be taken before dis-
connecting the battery and following
its reconnection. Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Refer to the Maintenance
and Warranty Guide for
details of the replacement
intervals for these compo-
nents.
Depending on the environment (e.g.
dusty atmosphere) and the use of the
vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace them
twice as often if necessary (refer to
the "Engines" paragraph).

tive contribution to the preservation
of air quality by the retaining of the
unburnt pollutant particles. Black
exhaust fumes are thus no longer
emitted.
After prolonged idling or driving at very
low speeds, you may occasionally no-
tice water vapour being emitted from
the exhaust when accelerating. This is
of no consequence to the running of
the vehicle or to the environment.
If there is risk of clogging, a mes-
sage appears on the multifunction
screen, accompanied by a sound
signal and lighting of the service
warning lamp.
This alert tells you that the particle

Brake pads Brake wear depends on
the style of driving, par-
ticularly in the case of ve-
hicles used in town, over
short distances. It may be
necessary to have the condition of
the brakes checked, even between
vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a
d r o p i n t h e b r a k e fl u i d l e v e l i n d i c a t e s
that the brake pads are worn.

system The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no
oil change).
Automatic gearbox The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no
oil change). Brake disc wear status
For information relating to
checking the brake disc wear
status, contact a CITROËN
dealer.
Handbrake If the handbrake travel is
too long or if a loss of ef-
fectiveness of this system
is noticed, the handbrake
must be adjusted, even
between two services.
This system must be checked by a
CITROËN dealer. Only use products recom-
mended by CITROËN or
products of equivalent quality
a n d s p e c i fi c a t i o n s .
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, CITROËN selects and of-
f e r s v e r y s p e c i fi c p r o d u c t s .
To avoid damaging the electrical
units, the use of a high pressure
washer in the engine compartment
is strictly prohibited .

Warranty Guide for the details of
the checking interval for this compo-
nent.
