Head-up display
System which projects information onto a
transparent strip in the field of vision of the
driver so that they do not have to take their eyes off the road.
This system operates when the engine is running and the settings are stored when the
ignition is switched off.

the engine is switched on again.
The strip retracts automatically 3 seconds after switching off the engine except in STOP mode
of Stop & Start.
Activation/Deactivation
)
With the engine running, adjust the brightness of the information usingbutton 3:
- towards the rear to increase
the brightness,
- towards the front to decreasethe brightness.
Brightness adjustment
We recommend that adjustments areonly made using these buttons whenthe vehicle is stationary.
When stationary or while driving, no objects should be placed around thetransparent strip (or on its cover) toavoid blocking the strip output and preventing its correct operation.
In certain extreme weather conditions (rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, ...)the head-up display may not be legibleor may suffer temporary inter ference.
Some sunglasses may hamper readingof the information. To clean the transparent strip, use aclean, soft cloth (such as a spectacles cloth or microfibre cloth). Do not usea dry or abrasive cloth or detergent or solvent products as these could scratch the strip or damage the anti-reflection coating.
Height adjustment
)With the engine running, adjust the display
to the required height using button 2:
- towards the rear to move the display up,
- towards the front to move the display down.

Visibility
Lighting left on audible signal
An audible signal when a front door
is opened warns the driver that the vehicle's exterior lighting is on, with theignition off and in manual lighting mode.
In this case, switching off the lighting stops the audible signal.
With the ignition off, if the dipped headlamps remain on, the vehicle goes into "ECO" mode to avoid discharging the battery.
In some weather conditions (e.g. low temperature or humidity), the presence of misting on the internal sur face of theglass of the headlamps and rear lampsis normal; it disappears after the lamps have been on for a few minutes.
The daytime runninglamps can be activated and deactivated via the configuration menu.
The lighting goes off when you switchoff the ignition, but you can always switch it on again using the lighting control stalk.
Daytime running lamps
(LEDs)
They come on when the engine is star ted.
Depending on the country of sale or whererequired by regulations, they are used for:
- daytime running lamps in day mode andsidelamps in night mode (they are brighter
when daytime running lamps), or
- sidelamps in day and night mode.

Safety
Electronic Stability Programme
(ESC: Electronic Stability Control) incorporating
the following systems:
- the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
the electronic brake force distribution(EBFD),
- the emergency braking assistance,
- the anti-slip regulation (ASR) or tractioncontrol,
- the dynamic stability control (DSC).
Electronic stability programme (ESC)
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking and offers improved control in corners, in par ticular on poor or slippery road surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution system
manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking pressure more quickly and therefore reduce the stopping distance. It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an increase in the effectiveness of the braking.
Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction Control) optimises traction in order to avoid
wheel slip b
y acting on the brakes of the drivingwheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle onacceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path followed by the vehicle and that required bythe driver, the DSC monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws of physics.

Safety
Dynamic stability control(DSC)
Activation
This system is activated automatically eachtime the vehicle is started.
It comes into operation in the event of a grip or
tra
jectory problem.
This is indicated by
flashing of thiswarning lamp in the instrument panel.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate
the DSC system, so that the wheels can move freely and regain grip.
The DSC system offers exceptional
safety in normal driving, but this should not encourage the driver to take extra risks or drive at high speed.
The correct operation of the system depends on obser vation of the manufacturer's recommendationsregarding the wheels (tyres and rims),the braking components, the electronic components and the CITROËN assembly and operation procedures.
After an impact, have the systemchecked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument
panel screen, this indicates a fault
with the s
ystem.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualifiedworkshop to have the system checked.
Reactivation
The system is reactivated automatically each
time the ignition is switched back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).
) Press the button.
This warnin
g lamp and the indicator
lamp in the button come on: the
DSC s
ystem no longer acts on theoperation of the engine.
)
Press the button again to
reactivate it manually. But it is recommended that the s
ystem be
reactivated as soon as possible.

is in
position "O" .
)
Uncoil the white pipe G
fully. )
Unscrew the cap from the white pipe. )
Connect the white pipe to the valve of the
tyre to be repaired.
)Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket. )Star t the vehicle and leave the engine running.
Take care, this product is harmful(e.g. ethylene-glycol, colophony...) if swallowed and causes irritation to the eyes.Keep it out of reach of children.
Do not star t the compressor before connecting the white pipe to the tyre valve: the sealant product would be expelled through the pipe.
Avoid removing any foreign bodieswhich have penetrated into the tyre.

valve of the wheel.
) Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket. ) Star t the vehicle again and leave the engine running.
)Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B
in position "I"
; to deflate: switch B
in position "O"and press button C), in accordance with the vehicle's
tyre pressure label (located on the left hand
door aperture).
A loss of pressure indicates that the
puncture has not been fully plugged; contact a CITROËN dealer or qualified
workshop for assistance. )Remove and stow the kit.
)Drive at reduced speed (50 mph [80 km/h] max) limiting the distance travelled toapproximately 120 miles (200 km).
)Visit a CITROËN dealer or aqualified workshop as soon aspossible. You must inform the technician that you have used this kit. After inspection, the technician willinform you whether the tyre can berepaired or must be replaced.
