READY TO SET OFF
Gearbox and steering wheel
Good practice
To change gear easily, always press the
clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedal:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
- never fit one mat on top of another.
Avoid leaving your hand on the gear knob as
the force exerted, even if slight, may wear
the internal components of the gearbox over
time.
STEERING WHEEL ADJUSTMENT MANUAL GEARBOX
Reverse gear
Never engage reverse gear before the
vehicle is completely stationary.
The lever should be moved slowly to reduce
the noise on engaging reverse gear.
If your vehicle is fitted with parking
assistance, the system comes into
operation when reverse gear is engaged and
an audible signal is heard.
Refer to the "Rear parking assistance"
section of chapter 3.
When the vehicle is stationary, unlock the
steering wheel by pushing the lever down.
Adjust the depth and height of the steering
wheel, then lock by pulling the lever up fully.

P a r k i n g a s s i s t a n c e
AUDIBLE REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE
The audible system consists of four
proximity sensors, installed in the rear
bumper.
It detects any obstacle which enters the
field: person, vehicle, tree, fence, behind the
vehicle during the manoeuvre.
However, it will not be able to detect
obstacles located immediately below the
bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks
cone or any other similar object may be
detected at the beginning of the manoeuvre
but may no longer be detected when the
vehicle moves close to it.
This system does not take the place of the
vigilance and responsibility of the driver. Stop the assistance
Change to neutral.
O p e r a t i n g f a u l t
If this warning light or the service
warning light comes on on the
instrument panel, accompanied
by a message on the display,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow.
E n g a g e r e v e r s e g e a r
The proximity information is indicated by an
audible signal which becomes more rapid as
the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
When the distance between the rear of
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately thirty centimetres, the audible
signal becomes continuous.
This function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed.
You are advised to obtain a towbar
recommended by CITROËN and have it
installed by a professional.
If anomalies are detected on engaging reverse
gear, the warning light comes on, possibly
accompanied by a message on the display.

Towing a trailer
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a steep
slope in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power. In this
case, the automatic cutting off of the air
conditioning allows the engine power to be
recovered.
If the coolant temperature
warning light comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identification
features" section of chapter 7) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressure.
Brakes: towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually.
Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed.
ABS: the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.
Rear parking assistance: the
assistance will be deactivated
automatically when an original CITROËN
towbar is used (see the "Rear parking
assistance" section of chapter 4).
Towbar
We recommend the use of original
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle, and that
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a
CITROËN dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it is essential that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment located at the
rear of the vehicle in accordance with the
manufacturer ’s instructions.
The operation of the sensors is deactivated
automatically when the pin of the trailer
cable is inserted in the towbar socket.
When the trailer cable pin is removed, the
sensors are re-activated.
Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest objects are as close as possible
to the axle and the nose weight is close to
the maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it. The air density decreases with
altitude, so reducing the performance of
the engine. The maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10 % for each 1 000 metres
of altitude. Refer to the "Technical data"
chapter for details of the weights and towed
loads applicable to your vehicle and also to
the administrative documents
(V5 registration document, ...).
