Main lighting

The various front and rear lamps of
the vehicle are designed to adapt
the driver's visibility progressively in
relation to the climatic conditions:


- sidelamps, to be seen,

- dipped beam headlamps to see
without dazzling other drivers,

- main beam headlamps to see
clearly when the road is clear.



Additional lighting

Other lamps are fi tted to fulfi l the require-
ments of particular driving conditions:


- a rear foglamp to be seen from a
distance,

- front foglamps for even better
forward vision,

- directional headlamps for improved
visibility when cornering,

- daytime running lamps to be
seen during the day.



Programming

Various automatic lighting control
modes are also available depending
on options:


- guide-me-home lighting,

-
automatic illumination of headlamps,


- directional lighting.

pedals:


- only use mats which are suited
to the fi xings already present in
the vehicle; their use is essen-
tial,

- never fi t one mat on top of
another.



Front door

The front door pockets can hold ob-
jects equivalent in volume to a 1.5 litre

They may have their own lighting,
which comes on automatically when
your hand approaches.
This lighting goes out automatical-
ly after a few moments when your
hand is taken away.


Rear door

The rear door pockets can hold
objects equivalent in volume to a
0.5 litre bottle.
USB BOX


This connection box, consisting of an
auxiliary JACK socket and a USB port,
is located on the centre console.
It permits the connection of portable
equipment, such as a digital audio
player of the iPod
® or USB memory
stick type.
It reads the audio fi le formats which are
transmitted to your audio equipment
and played via the vehicle's speakers.
You can manage these fi les using the
steering mounted controls or the audio
equipment control panel and display
them on the multifunction screen.

SAFETY
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
Sensors fi tted in each valve check
the tyre pressure during driving and
trigger a warning in the event of
malfunction (speed above 12 mph
(20 km/h)).

Under-infl ated tyre The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is an aid to driving which
does not replace the vigilance or
responsibility of the driver.
Puncture
The service warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction screen lo-
cating the wheel concerned.
Check the tyre pressures as soon as
possible. This check must be carried
out when the tyres are cold. The STOP
warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction screen lo-
cating the wheel concerned.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-
den movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
tured or very defl ated tyre), and
have the tyre pressure checked as
soon as possible.

Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
The service warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction screen
locating the wheel or wheels which
are not detected or indicating a fault
in the system.
Have the faulty sensor(s) checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop. All repairs and changing of tyres
on a wheel fi tted with this system
must be carried out by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you in-
stall a wheel which is not detected
by your vehicle (example: fi tting
of snow tyres), you must have the
system reinitialised by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
This system does not avoid the
need to have the tyre pressures
checked regularly (refer to the
"Technical data - Identifi cation
markings" section) to ensure that
the optimum dynamic performance
of the vehicle is maintained and
prevent premature wear of the
tyres, particularly in arduous driv-
ing conditions (heavy load, high
speed).
The tyre pressures must be
checked cold, at least once a
month. Remember to check the
pressure of the spare wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to electro-magnetic
signals on a frequency close to that
used by the system.
This message is also displayed
when one of the wheels is away
from the vehicle (being repaired) or
when one or more wheels without a
sensor are fi tted.
The spare wheel is not fi tted with a
sensor.

message "Parking brake on" and an
audible signal is heard.

Maximum application is essential:



- when towing a caravan or a trail-
er, if the automatic functions are
activated but you are applying
the parking brake manually,

- when the gradient you are parked
on is variable in its effect (e.g. on
a ferry, in a lorry, during towing),


- when towing, when loaded or
when parking on a gradient, turn
the front wheels towards the
pavement and engage a gear
when you park,

- after a maximum application, the
release time will be longer.

on fi xed, not fl ashing.
Never leave a child alone inside the
vehicle with the ignition on, as they
could release the parking brake.
- the display of a message
"Parking brake on" in the multi-
function screen.
The normal operating sound will con-
fi rm to you the application/release of
the electric parking brake.

DRIVING

Dynamic emergency braking

In the event of a failure of the vehi-
cle’s main braking system or in an
exceptional situation (e.g. driver tak-
en ill, under instruction, etc) a con-
tinuous pull on the control lever A

will stop the vehicle.
The electronic stability programme
(ESP) provides stability during dy-
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 il-
lumination of this warning
lamp, then braking stability
is not guaranteed. In this event, sta-
bility 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.
