Going into engine START mode
The "ECO"
warning lamp goes off
and the engine star ts:
- with a manual gearbox
, when you fully
depress the clutch pedal,
- with the 6-speed electronic gearbox
system
:
●
gear lever in position A
or M
, when you
release the brake pedal,
●
or gear lever in position N
and the brake
pedal released, when you move the gear
lever to position A
or M
,
●
or when you engage reverse gear.
Special cases: START invoked
automatically
If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately. With a manual gearbox in STOP
mode, if a gear is engaged without
fully depressing the clutch pedal, a
warning lamp comes on or a message
is displayed asking you to depress the
clutch pedal to restar t the engine.
At any time, press the "ECO OFF"
switch to
deactivate the system.
This is confirmed by the switch warning lamp
coming on accompanied by a message on the
screen.
Deactivation
In this case the "ECO"
warning lamp
flashes for few seconds, then goes
off.
This operation is per fectly normal.
For safety reasons or to ensure smooth
operation, START mode is invoked
automatically when:
- you open the driver's door,
- you unfasten the driver's seat belt,
- the speed of the vehicle exceeds 15 mph
(25 km/h) with a manual gearbox or
7 mph (11 km/h) with the 6 -speed
electronic gearbox system,
- the electric parking brake is being applied,
- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.

exceeding the speed programmed by the driver.
When the programmed speed limit is reached,
pressing the accelerator pedal no longer has
any effect.
Speed limiter

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 functions of this system are grouped

Displays in the instrument panel
Operation
The speed limiter is switched on
manually:
it requires a programmed speed of at least
20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is switched off
by manual
operation of the control.
The programmed speed can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly
beyond the point of resistance.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
The programmed speed remains in the memory
when the ignition is switched off.

to the "LIMIT"
position: the
speed limiter mode is selected but is not
switched on (Pause).
You do not have to switch the speed limiter on
in order to set the speed.
)
Set the speed value by pressing
button 2
or 3
(e.g.: 55 mph (90 km/h)).
Programming
You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2
and 3
:
- by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = shor t press,
- in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.
If speed memorisation is available and activated on your vehicle, the
programmed speed will stop at the closest memorised speed; refer the
the corresponding paragraph.
)
Switch the speed limiter on by pressing button 4
.
)
Switch the speed limiter off by pressing button 4
: the display
confirms that it has been switched off (Pause).
)
Switch the speed limiter back on by pressing button 4
again.
Exceeding the programmed speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the programmed speed will not have
any effect unless you press the pedal firmly
past the point of resistance
.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the programmed speed,
which is still displayed, flashes.
Returning to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or
unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the
flashing of the programmed speed. On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,
- do not fit one mat on top of another.
Exiting the speed limiter mode

Tu r n d i a l 1
to the "0"
position: the speed
limiter mode is deselected. It disappears
from the screen.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the speed limiter,
the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the
dashes.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Displays in the instrument panel
Operation
The cruise control is switched on
manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h) and engagement of:
- four th gear on the manual gearbox,
- second gear on the electronic gearbox
system or automatic gearbox, in sequential
driving mode,
- position A
on the electronic gearbox
system or D
on an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off
manually
or 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.

Parking space sensors
System which measures the parking space
available between two vehicles or obstacles.
It measures the size of the space and gives you
information on:
- the possibility of fitting into a free space,
depending on the dimensions of your
vehicle and the distances needed for
manoeuvring,
- the level of difficulty of the manoeuvre to
be performed.
The system does not measure spaces which
are clearly much smaller or larger than the size
of the vehicle.
Displays in the instrument panel
You have identified a parking space:
)
Press button A
to select the function.
)
Operate the direction indicator on the
side where the space is to be measured;
a message is displayed to confirm that
measurement is in progress.
)
During measurement, go for ward the
length of the space, at a speed less than
12 mph (approx. 20 km/h), to prepare for
your manoeuvre.
)
Once the measurement has been
completed, the system informs you of
the level of difficulty of the manoeuvre
by a message in the multifunction screen
accompanied by an audible signal.
Operation
The parking space sensor function
warning lamp can have two different
states:
- on fixed:
the function is selected by a
press on control A
.
- off:
the function is not selected,
Page 227 of 396
225Driving
The function displays the following types of message:
The function deselects itself automatically:
- when you engage reverse gear,
- when you switch off the ignition,
- if measuring is not requested,
- within five minutes of selection of the
function,
- if the vehicle speed exceeds the
threshold of 45 mph (approx. 70 km/h) for
one minute.
If the lateral distance between your vehicle and
the parking space is too large, the system may
not be able to measure the space.
The system remains available after each
measurement and can therefore measure
several spaces in succession.
In poor or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are free of dir t, ice or snow.
The parking space sensor system deactivates
the front parking sensors when measuring
forwards.
Parking possible
Parking difficult
Parking not advised
If there is a fault, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Parking sensors
This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) which
comes within the field of detection of sensors
located in the bumper.
Cer tain types of obstacle (stake, roadworks
cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer be
detected at the end of the manoeuvre due to
the presence of blind spots.
This function cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the
vigilance and responsibility of the
driver.
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
gear. This is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you exit
reverse gear.
Rear parking sensors
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of which
increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)
indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the multifunction screen
which move progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is near, the "Danger"
symbol is also displayed in the screen.
