HILL START ASSISTANCE
This function, linked with the ESP, makes hill
starts easier and is activated in the following
conditions:
- the vehicle must be stationary, engine
running, foot on the brake,
- the gradient of the road must be steeper
than 5 %,
- uphill, the gearbox must be in neutral or
in a gear other than reverse,
- downhill, reverse gear must be engaged.
The HHC (Hill Holder Control) or Hill Start
Assistance function is a driving comfort
feature. It is not an automatic vehicle
parking function or an automatic handbrake.
Operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal
pressed, from the time you release the brake
pedal you have approximately 2 seconds
before the vehicle starts to roll back and
without using the handbrake within which to
move off.
During the moving off phase, the function
is deactivated automatically, gradually
releasing the braking pressure. During
this phase, the typical noise of mechanical
disengaging of the brakes can be heard,
indicating the imminent movement of the
vehicle.
Anomaly
If a malfunction of the system
occurs, this warning light comes
on accompanied by an audible
s i g n a l a n d c o n fi r m e d b y a
message on the display. Contact a CITROËN
dealer to have the system checked.
The hill start assistance is deactivated in the
following situations:
- when the clutch pedal is released,
- when the handbrake is applied,
- when the engine is switched off,
- when the engine stalls.
