Cruise control
System which automatically maintains the speed of the vehicle at the value programmed by the driver, without any action on the accelerator pedal. The cruise control is switched on manually: it requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph (40 km/h), as well as the engagement of: - four th gear on a manual gearbox, - second gear on an automatic gearbox, in sequential mode, - position D on an automatic gearbox. The cruise control is switched off manually d offor by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on triggering of the ESP system for safety reasons. It is possible to exceed the programmed speed temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal. To return to the programmed speed, simply release the accelerator pedal. Switching off the ignition cancels any programmed speed value.
The controls of this system are grouped together on stalk A . 1. Cruise control mode selection thumb wheel. 2. Value decrease button. 3. Value increase button. 4. Cruise control off/resume button.
Steering mounted controls
The cruise control cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to respect speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance and responsibility on the par t of the driver.
The programmed information is grouped together on the instrument panel display. 5. Cruise control off/resume indication. 6. Cruise control mode selection indication. 7. Programmed speed value.

Programming Operating faults
If there is an operating fault, when reverse gear is engaged this warning lamp comes on on the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal (shor t beep) and a message on the multifunction screen.
You can activate or deactivate the system by means of the multifunction screen configuration menu. The system state is memorised when switching off the ignition. For more information on access to the parking sensors menu, refer to "Configuration/ Vehicle parameters" in the "Multifunction screens" section corresponding to your screen.
The system will be deactivated automatically when towing a trailer or when a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by CITROËN).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the sensors are not covered with mud, frost or snow.

169Checks
Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly and top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated. If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Oil level
Engine oil change
Refer to the Maintenance and Warranty Guide for details of the inter val for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine and emission control system, the use of additives in the engine oil is prohibited.
Oil grade
The oil must be suitable for your engine and conform to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Brake fluid level
C h a n g i n g t h e fl u i d
Refer to the Maintenance and Warranty Guide for details of the inter val for this operation.
F l u i d s p e c i fi c a t i o n
The brake fluid must conform to the manufacturer's recommendations and meet the DOT4 standard.
The brake fluid level should be close to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check the brake pad wear.
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.

6Safety
Trajectory control systems
Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
programme (ESP)
The anti-skid regulation (also known as Traction Control) optimises traction to prevent skidding of the wheels, by acting on the brakes of the driving wheels and on the engine. The electronic stability programme acts on the brake of one or more wheels and on the engine to keep the vehicle on the trajectory required by the driver, within the limits of the laws of physics.
Activation
These systems are activated automatically each time the vehicle is star ted. They come into operation in the event of a grip or trajectory problem.
This is indicated by flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument panel.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (star ting a vehicle which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate the ASR and ESP systems, so that the wheels can
move freely and regain grip. Press the "ESP OFF" button, located to the side of the steering wheel.
If this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel and the indicator lamp in the button comes on, this indicates that the ASR and ESP systems are deactivated.
