Dynamic emergency braking
In the event of a failure of the ve-
hicle’s main braking system or in
an exceptional situation (e.g. driver
t a k e n i l l , u n d e r i n s t r u c t i o n , e t c ) a c o n -
tinuous pull on the control lever A will
stop the vehicle.
The electronic stability programme
( E S P ) p r o v i d e s s t a b i l i t y d u r i n g d y -
namic emergency braking.
If the dynamic emergency braking
malfunctions, one of the following
messages will be displayed in the
multifunction screen:
- "Parking brake faulty".
- "Parking brake control faulty". If a failure of the ESP sys-
tem is signalled by the light-
ing of this warning lamp,
then braking stability is not
guaranteed. In this event, stability
must be assured by the driver by
repeating alternate "pull-release"
actions on control lever A .
The dynamic emergency
braking must only be used in
exceptional circumstances.

6-SPEED ELECTRONIC GEARBOX SYSTEM
The 6-speed electronic gearbox of-
fers a choice between the comfort of
fully automatic operation or the driving
pleasure of manual gear changing.
You have a choice of two driving
modes:
-
automatic mode for automatic con-
trol of the gears by the gearbox,
- sequential mode for manual
changing of the gears by the
driver.
automatic mode: selector lever 2
in position A .
manual mode: selector lever 2 in
position M .
In automatic mode, instant manual
operation is possible any time you
operate one of the paddles 1 .

SPEED LIMITER
System which prevents the vehi-
cle from exceeding the speed pro-
grammed by the driver.
Once the limit speed has been
reached, the accelerator pedal no
longer has any effect.
The speed limiter is switched on
manually: a speed of at least 20 mph
( a p p r o x i m a t e l y 3 0 k m / h ) m u s t b e p r o -
grammed.
The speed limiter controls are located
on the left-hand side of the steering
wheel. The programmed information is
g r o u p e d t o g e t h e r i n z o n e
A of the
instrument panel screen.
Steering mounted controls Displays on the instrument
panel
Programming
Rotate the control
1 to the "LIM" po-
sition. With the engine running, you can
a d j u s t t h e m e m o r i s e d m a x i m u m
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.
Successive presses will modify the
maximum speed in steps of 1 mph
( 1 k m / h ) a n d a s u s t a i n e d p r e s s i n
s t e p s o f 3 m p h ( 5 k m / h ) .
Activation
When the desired maximum speed
is displayed, press button 3 so that
the limitation is activated.
On selection of the
function, the previous
memorised speed and
the information "OFF"
are displayed on the
instrument panel. The information
"OFF"
then disappears from
the instrument panel
screen.
While the function is active, press-
ing the accelerator pedal will not en-
able the programmed speed to be
exceeded, except if you press the
pedal hard down to beyond the end-
of-travel switch.
The speed of your vehicle may vary
slightly in relation to that memo-
rised.
The speed limiter cannot, in any circum-
stances, take the place of the obser-
vance of speed limits or of the vigilance
and responsibility of the driver.

Deactivation
Press on button 3 .
This action causes the
information "OFF" to
appear on the instru-
ment panel screen.
This action does not cancel the
memorised maximum speed which
r e m a i n s d i s p l a y e d i n z o n e A of the
instrument panel.
Override of the programmed
speed
The accelerator pedal is equipped
with an end-of-travel switch. If you
action this switch by pressing the
pedal hard down, you can exceed
the memorised maximum speed at
any time.
During the time the speed is be-
ing exceeded, the displayed speed
fl a s h e s .
You have only to release the ac-
celerator pedal to return below the
maximum speed and render the
function active again. Return to normal driving
By moving the control 1 from po-
sition "LIM" to position 0 .
By the engine stopping.
The speed previously chosen is still
memorised. Operating fault
If there is a speed limiter malfunc-
tion, a message will display accom-
panied by an audible signal and
lighting of the service warning lamp.
Have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer.
If during the operation of the speed
limiter, the system is unable to keep
within the maximum speed (for exam-
ple on a steep descent or under heavy
a c c e l e r a t i o n ) t h e n t h e s p e e d fl a s h e s .
Adapt your speed as necessary.
The function will re-engage when
your speed returns below the de-
sired maximum speed.
On a steep downhill gradi-
ent or on sharp accelera-
tion, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed
speed.
U s e o f fl o o r m a t s t h a t a r e n o t a p -
proved by CITROËN may hinder
access to the accelerator pedal
and thus interfere with the function-
ing of the speed limiter.
To avoid any risk of interfering with
the pedals:
- c h e c k t h a t t h e fl o o r m a t i s c o r - rectly positioned,
- n e v e r u s e m o r e t h a n o n e fl o o r mat.

CRUISE CONTROL
System which automatically main-
tains the vehicle speed programmed
by the driver, without any action on
the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on
manually: the vehicle speed must
be at least 25 mph (approximately
4 0 k m / h ) a n d y o u m u s t e n g a g e :
- fourth gear on a manual gear-box,
- second gear, in sequential mode, on an electronic gearbox or au-
tomatic gearbox,
- position A on an electronic gear-
box or D on an automatic gearbox.
Steering mounted controls
The cruise control switches are lo-
cated on the left-hand side of the
steering wheel. The programmed information is
g r o u p e d t o g e t h e r i n z o n e
A of the
instrument panel screen.

position.
Once the desired speed has been
reached using the accelerator, press
button 2 or button 4 . The cruise
speed is then memorised. It is dis-

ment panel screen.
These actions do not
cancel the cruise speed
which remains displayed
in the instrument panel.
The cruise control cannot, in any circum-
stances, take the place of the obser-
vance of speed limits or of the vigilance
and responsibility of the driver.
