After a few moments without any action on
the controls, the gearbox resumes automaticcontrol of the gears.

Manual mode


At very low speed, if reverse gear is requested, this will only be taken intoaccount when the vehicle is immobilised(foot on the brake). A warning lamp appears in the instrument panel screen.

On sharp acceleration in manual mode,
the gearbox will not change up unless the driver acts on the gear lever or thesteering mounted paddles.
Never select neutral N
while the vehicleis moving. Only engage reverse gear Rwhen thevehicle is immobilised with the brake pedal pressed.
The gear change commands are only carriedout if the engine speed permits. The internal combustion engine is still running.
It is not necessary to release the accelerator

- towards the front to decrease the
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.

Speed limiter System which prevents the vehicle fromexceeding the speed programmed by the driver.
When the programmed speed limit is reached, pressing the accelerator pedal no longer has
any effect.
The speed limiter cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to respect speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance and responsibilityon the par t of the driver.The functions of this s

O
peration

The speed limiter is switched onmanually:
it requires a programmed speed of at least
20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is switched offby manual foperation of the control.
The programmed speed can be exceeded
temporaril
y by pressing the accelerator firmlybeyond the point of resistance.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
The pro
grammed speed remains in the memory
when the i
gnition is switched off.
This information also appears in thehead-up display.
For more information, refer to the "Head-up display" section.

Programming
)Turn dial 1 to the "LIMIT"
position: the
speed limiter mode is selected but is not

(Pause). You do not have to switch the speed limiter onin order to set the speed.)Set the speed value by pressing button 2or 3(e.g.: 55 mph (90 km/h)).
Exceeding the programmed speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the programmed speed will not have any effect unless you press the pedal firmlypast the ypoint 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.

Exiting the speed limiter
mode
)Turn dial 1to 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.
On a steep descent or in the event of sharp acceleration, the speed limiter willnot 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.

)Switch the speed limiter back on by pressing button 4
again.

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, theprogrammed speed will stop at the closest memorised speed; refer to thecorresponding 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).

Operation
The cruise control is switched on
manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) and the engagement of second gear
with sequential gear changing (position M ).
The cruise control is switched off
manually or fby pressing the brake pedal or on triggering of
the "electronic stability programme" 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.

This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) which comes within the field of detection of sensorslocated in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworkscone, etc.) detected initially will no longer bedetected at the end of the manoeuvre due to
the presence of blind spots.






Parking sensors


This function cannot, in any circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of the driver.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reversegear. This is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you exit reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by anintermittent audible signal, the frequency of whichincreases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left) indicates the side on which the obstacle islocated.
When the distance between the vehicle andthe obstacle becomes less than approximately
t
hirty centimetres, the audible signal becomescontinuous.



Visual assistance

This supplements the audible signal bydisplaying bars in the multifunction screen
w
hich move progressively nearer to the vehicle.When the obstacle is near, the "Danger" symbol is also displayed in the screen.
