SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
The ESP system offers increased driving safety but is not in place to encourage the driver to take addi-tional risks or to drive at excessive speeds.
The functioning of this system is subject to compliance with the manufacturer’s recommendations on wheels (tyres and rims), brake parts and electronic components, as well as with CITROËN’s as-parts and electronic components, components,
sembly and repair procedures.
After any collision, have this system checked by a CITROËN dealer.After any collision, have this system , have t
Electronic stability programme (ESP) and traction control (ASR)
These systems are closely connected to the ABS and additional to it. In the event of a loss of control of the vehicle by the driver, the ESP system acts automatically on one or more brakes and also on the engine to bring the vehicle back on trajectory. The ASR system optimises traction and prevents wheel spin by acting on the brakes of the driving wheels, as well as on the engine. It also improves steering stability during acceleration.
Operation :
When either the ESP or ASR system is in operation, the ESP/ASR warning l a m p fl a s h e s.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (vehicle stuck in snow, soft ground, e tc.) it may prove useful to deactivate the ESP/ASR system to allow the wheels to spin and thus regain traction.
- Press on control A, the ESP/ASR warning lamp and the control light up. The ESP/ASR systems are no longer active.
The ESP/ASR systems will activate again :
- Automatically after the ignition has been switched off.
- Automatically above a speed of 50 km/h (30 mph).
- Manually with a new press on control A.
Operational anomaly
If the systems malfunction, the ESP/ASR warning lamp comes on, ac-companied by a sound signal and a message on the multifunction display. Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the system checked.companied by a sound signal and a message on the multifunction by a sound

REAR VIEW MIRRORS
ADJUSTMENT
This operates with the ignition switched on.
From the driver’s seat position, se-lect the rear view mirror by moving control 1 to the left or right, then adjust the rear view mirror in the four directions by acting on con-trol 2.
Demisting-deicing of the rear view mirrors is coupled with that for the rear screen.
REAR VIEW MIRRORS
FOLDBACK
When the vehicle is parked, the rear view mirrors can be folded back ei-ther manually or electrically.
Electrically
From the central position, a press to the rear on control 1 folds the rear view mirrors back.
The opposite movement is ob-tained by pressing again on the rear of the control.
Electrically and automatically
The rear view mirrors also fold back automatically when you lock the doors.
The rear view mirrors redeploy when you unlock the vehicle, un-less the foldback was performed manually. In this case, you have to press on the rear of the control to deploy them.
Note : The automatic foldback of the rear view mirrors can be deactivated. Contact a CITROËN dealer.
AUTOMATIC TILTING OF
REAR VIEW MIRRORS IN
REVERSE GEAR
This functions enables you to au-tomatically see the ground (pave-ment) when parking using reverse gear.
A d j u s t i n g t h e i n d e x e d p o s i t i o n of the driver’s and passenger’s rear view mirrors
With the engine running :
- Select the rear view mirror using control 1.
- Engage reverse gear, the glass of the rear view mirror positions itself automatically to give a bet-ter sight of the pavement.
- If necessary, adjust your rear view mirror to your preference by means of the electrical control 2. This position is then memorised.
Stopping the rear view mirror i n d e x i n g f u n c t i o n
To stop the function, move control 1 to the central position.
Note : The rear view mirrors re-turn to their original position :
- 20 seconds after reverse gear has been disengaged,
- once you reach a speed of over 10 km/h (approx. 6 mph).

Stopping the function
- by an action on the control on position "REG" to position 0.
- by the engine stopping.
The cruise speed previously cho-sen is no longer memorised.
If there is a malfunction,a mes-sage will display accompanied by a sound signal and lighting of the SERVICE warning lamp.
Contact a CITROËN dealer.
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 d a n g e r o u s o r s l i p p e r y r o a d s .
The driver must remain attentive and in full control of his vehicle.

- n e v e r u s e m o r e t h a n o n e fl o o r m a t .
Re-engaging cruise control
-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 wll 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 thendisappear from zone A.
Observation : If during the opera-tion of cruise control, the system is unable to keep within the memo-rised speed (for example on a steep d e s c e n t ) , t h e n t h e s p e e d fl a s h e s . Adapt your speed as necessary.
Disengaging of cruise control while retaining the memorised speed
- 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.
Note : cruise control is not active if the gear lever is in neutral.
These actions cause the informa-tion "OFF" to appear in zone A of the instrument panel.
These manœuvres do not cancel the cruise speed which remains displayed in the instrument panel.

This driving assistance device en-ables you to choose a maximum speed that you wish not to exceed. This has to be higher than 30 km/h (around 20 mph).
The speed limiter controls are lo-cated on the steering wheel.
Note : The information relating to the speed limiter is displayed in zone A of the instrument panel.
Selection of the function
Rotate the control 1 to the "LIM"position.
On selection of the function, the previous memorised speed and the information "OFF" are displayed :
A d j u s t m e n t o f t h e m a x i m u m speed
With the engine running, you can adjust the memorised maximum speed , by means of short or long presses on :
- button 4 to increase the memo-rised maximum speed,
- button 2 to decrease the memo-rised maximum speed.
Note : successive presses will modify the maximum speed in steps of 1 km/h and a sustained press in steps of 5 km/h (3 mph).

This driving assistance device alerts you if you are wandering from your lane (continuous or dotted line marking on the road surface).
It is designed especially for use on motorways and dual carriage-ways, operating only at speeds above 80 km/h (approx. 50 mph).
Activation / Deactivation
A press on control A activates the function, the warning lamp on the control lights up.
A second press on control A de-activates the function, the warning lamp on the control goes out.
Whenever you start the engine, the mode (activated/deactivated), selected when you last switched off the engine, is retained.
The driver must still remain attentive and in complete control of the ve-hicle.
Operation
Provided you are travelling at over 80 km/h (approx. 50 mph), if you cross a lane marking, you are alerted by a vibration within the cushion of your seat :
- oriented to the right for crossing a lane marking to the right,
- oriented to the left for crossing a lane marking to the left.
The system does not alert you while your direction indicator is o perating, nor for about 20 seconds after your direction indicator has stopped.
Note : In the event of an electronic malfunction, a message is displayed, the SERVICE warning lamp comes on and a sound signal is heard. Con-tact a CITROËN dealer. warning lamp warning
