Cruise control
System which automatically maintains thespeed of the vehicle at the value programmed
by the driver, without any action on the accelerator pedal.
The
functions of this system are grouped
together on the steering mounted controls.
1.Cruise control mode selection dial.
2. Speed programming/value decrease button. 3.

Steering mounted controls
The cruise control system cannot, in anycircumstances, replace the need to respect speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance and responsibility on the par t of the driver.
You are advised to keep your feet near the pedals at all times.
The programmed information is grouped
together in the instrument panel screen.

Displays in the instrument panel
Operation
The cruise control is switched on
manually: itrequires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph(40 km/h) and engagement of:
- fourth gear on the manual gearbox,
- second gear on the electronic gearbox
system or automatic gearbox, in sequential
drivin
g mode,
- position A
on the electronic gearbox
system or D on an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched offmanuallyfor 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 pro
grammed speed, simply release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any programmed speed value.
Parking space sensors
System which measures the parking spaceavailable 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 s
ystem does not measure spaces which
are clearly much smaller or larger than the sizeof the vehicle.
Displays in the instrument panel
You have identified a parking space: )Press button Ato select the function. )Operate the direction indicator on theside where the space is to be measured; a message is displayed to confirm thatmeasurement 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 beencompleted, 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 differentstates:
-

press on control A .

Front par king sensors
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of
the system, when reverse gear is engaged this warning lamp
is displa
yed in the instrument panel and/or a
message appears in the screen, accompanied
b
y an audible signal (short beep).
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop. In addition to the rear parkin
g sensors, the front parking sensors are triggered when an obstacle
is detected in front and the speed of the vehicle
is still below 6 mph
(10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in for ward gear, if no fur ther obstacles are
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
The function will be deactivated automatically if a trailer is being towedor a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by CITROËN).
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the sensors are not covered with mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear isengaged, an audible signal (long beep)indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
When the vehicle is moving at a speed
below 6 mph (10 km/h), cer tain soundsources (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger the audible signals of the parking sensor system.
Deactivation/Activation of the front and rear parking sensors
The function is deactivated by pressing this button. The indicator lamp in the button comes on.
Pressing this button again reactivates the function.
The indicator lamp in the button goes off.
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) indicates whether theobstacle is in front or behind.

Checks
Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly and top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops si
gnificantly, have the corresponding system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Oil level
Engine oil change
Refer to the servicing booklet for the inter val for
this operation.
In order to maintain the reliabilit
y of the engine and emission control system, the use of additives in the engine oil is prohibited.
Oil specifi cation
The oil must correspond to your engineand conform to the manufacturer'srecommendations.
Brake fluid level
Changing the fl uid
Refer to the servicing booklet for the inter val for
this operation.
Fluid specifi cation
The brake fluid must conform to themanufacturer's recommendations and meet theDOT4 standard.
Th
e brake fluid level should be closeto 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 30 minutes. The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the oil levelindicator in the instrument panel, or using the dipstick.
When working under the bonnet, take care, as cer tain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns).
It is normal to top up the oil level
between two services. CITROËN recommends that you check the oillevel, and top up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kilometres).

Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful tohealth or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop (France) or to anauthorised waste disposal site.

Specifi cation of the fl uid
To ensure optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, the fluid should never be topped up or
replaced by plain water. Accordin
g to your version of instrument panel,
the additive reser voir low level is indicated by:
-fixed illumination of the particle emissions filter warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal anda message that the particle emissionsfilter additive level is too low,

Par ticle emission filter (Diesel)
On a new vehicle, the first operations of regeneration of the par ticle emissions filter may be accompanied by the smell of "burning", w hic h is per fec t ly normal.Following prolonged operation of the vehicle at very low speed or at idle,you may, in exceptional circumstances,notice the emission of water vapour at the exhaust on acceleration. This doesnot affect the behaviour of the vehicleor the environment.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require anymaintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the ser vicing booklet for the
details of the level checking interval for this component.
According to your version of instrument panel, the start of
saturation of the par ticle emissions filter is indicated by:

Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does not block traffic: the ground must be level, stable and non-slippery ground. Apply the parking brake unless it hasbeen programmed to automatic mode, switch off the ignition and engage first gear * to lock the wheels.Check that the braking warning lamps in the instrument panel are on(not flashing). The occupants must get out of thevehicle and wait where they are safe.If necessary, place a chock under the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel tobe changed. Never go underneath a vehicle raisedusing a jack; use an axle stand.

The audio settings ( Equalizer, rBass , Trebleand Loudness)are different and independent for each sound source.
The settings
for distribution and balance are common to all sources. The distribution
(or spatialisation using the Arkamys©system) of sound
is an audio process that allows the audio quality to be adapted to the
number of listeners in the vehicle.
Arkamys©: in a vehicle, the sound quality suffers from the physicalconstraints imposed by the safety standards and the requirement to
optimise the space available in the passenger compartment. Speakersare fi tted in the doors, which can result for the driver and passenger in the sound being too one-sided, either "all on the right" or "all on theleft".
The Arkamys© software installed in your audio system processes ©
the digital signal from the media players (radio, CD, MP3, ...) and
recreates a natural musical scene, with harmonious placement of
instruments and voices in the space facing passengers, at the height of the windscreen.
