Blind spot sensors
This driving assistance system warns the driver
of the presence of another vehicle in the blind
spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from
the driver's field of vision), as soon as this presents a potential danger.
Operation
This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to asses the distances and relative speeds of other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.
The blind spot sensor system can never replace the vigilance and responsibility of the driver.
)
On switching on the ignition, or engine
running, press this button to activate the
function; the warning lamp comes on.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots. A warnin
g lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
- immediatel
y, when being overtaken,
- after a delay of about one second, when
over taking a vehicle slowly.
Page 218 of 396
No aler t will be given in the following situations:
- in the presence of stationary objects(parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps,
road signs...),
- with vehicles moving in the opposite
direction,
- drivin
g on a sinuous road or a sharp corner,
The alert is given by a warning lamp whichcomes on in the door mirror on the side in
question as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry,cycle - is detected and the following conditions are fulfilled:
- all the vehicles must be moving in the same
direction,
- the speed of
your vehicle is between 7 and
75 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
- the difference in speed between your
vehicle and the other vehicles must be lessthan 6 mph (10 km/h),
- the traffic must be flowing normally,
- in the case of an overtaking manoeuvre,if this is prolonged and the vehicle being
over taken remains in the blind spot,
-
you are driving on a straight or slightlycurved road,- your vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a caravan...
- when overtakin
g (or being over taken by) a
very long vehicle (lorr y, coach...) which is at the same time detected at the rear in theblind spot angle and present in the driver's
for ward field of vision,
- in ver
y heavy traffic: vehicles detected in
front and behind are confused with a lorryor a stationary object,
- when overtaking quickly.

Operating fault
In the event of a fault, the warning lamp in the
button flashes then goes off.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or aqualified workshop.
The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions (rain, hail...).
In par ticular, driving on a wet surfaceor moving from a dry area to a wet area can cause false alerts (for example,the presence of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot angle is interpreted as a vehicle). In bad or wintry weather, ensure thatthe sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow. Take care not to cover the warningzone in the door mirrors or thedetection zones on the front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels or other objects; they may hamper the correct operation of the system.
)To deactivate the system, press this buttonagain; the warning lamp goes off.
The state of the system remains in memory on switching off the ignition.
The system is automaticallydeactivated when towing with a towbar approved by CITROËN.
