SPEED LIMITER
System which prevents the vehicle
from exceeding the speed programmed
by the driver.
When the programmed speed limit is
reached, pressing the accelerator ped-
al 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 responsibility on the part of
the driver. The functions of this system are
grouped together on the steering
mounted controls.

Steering mounted controls

Operation

The speed limiter is switched on
man-
ually: 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 ex-
ceeded temporarily by pressing the
accelerator fi rmly 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.

Programming




Turn dial 1
to the "LIMIT"
posi-
tion: 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)).
You can then change the programmed speed using but-
tons 2
and 3
:


- by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short 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 to the corresponding paragraph.



Switch the speed limiter on by pressing button 4
.


Switch the speed limiter off by pressing button 4
: the
display confi rms that it has been switched off (Pause).


Exceeding the programmed speed

Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the programmed
speed will not have any effect unless you press the pedal
fi rmly
past the point of resistance
.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the pro-
grammed speed, which is still displayed, fl ashes.
Returning to the programmed speed, by means of inten-
tional or unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automati-
cally cancels the fl ashing of the programmed speed.


Exiting the speed limiter mode




Turn dial 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
fl ashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
On a steep descent or in the
event of sharp acceleration, the
speed limiter will not be able to
prevent the vehicle from exceed-
ing the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of
the pedals:


- ensure that the mat is posi-
tioned correctly,

- do not fi t one mat on top of
another.


Switch the speed limiter back on by pressing button 4

again.

The cruise control system can-
not, in any circumstances, re-
place the need to respect speed
limits, nor can it replace the need
for vigilance and responsibility
on the part of the driver.
You are advised to keep your
feet near the pedals at all times.






CRUISE CONTROL

System which automatically maintains
the speed 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 con-
trols.

Operation

The cruise control is switched on

manually: it requires a minimum ve-
hicle speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) and
engagement of:


- fourth gear on the manual gearbox,

- second gear on the electronic gear-
box system or automatic gearbox,
in sequential driving mode,

- position A
on the electronic gearbox
system or D
on an automatic gear-
box.
The cruise control is switched off
man-
ually or by pressing the brake or clutch
pedal or on triggering of the ESP sys-
tem for safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed
speed temporarily by pressing the ac-
celerator 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 fi tting into a free
space, depending on the dimensions
of your vehicle and the distances
needed for manoeuvring,

- the level of diffi culty of the manoeuvre
to be performed.
The system does not measure spaces
which are clearly much smaller or larg-
er than the size of the vehicle.

Displays in the instrument panel



- on fi xed:
the function is selected by
a press on control A
.

- off:
the function is not selected,
The parking space sensor
function warning lamp can
have two different states:

Operation

You have identifi ed 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 confi rm that measurement is in
progress.


During measurement, go forward
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 diffi culty of the ma-
noeuvre by a message in the multi-
function screen accompanied by an
audible signal.

DRIVING
175

The function displays the following types
of message:

Parking possible


Parking diffi cult


Parking not advised

The function deselects itself automati-
cally:


- when you engage reverse gear,

- when you switch off the ignition,

- if measuring is not requested,

- within fi ve 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 ve-
hicle and the parking space is too large,
the system may not be able to measure
the space.
If there is a fault, have the sys-
tem checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

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 dirt, ice or snow.
The parking space sensor system de-
activates the front parking sensors
when measuring forwards.

PARKING SENSORS

This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
which comes within the fi eld of detection
of sensors located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake, road-
works 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 cir-
cumstances, 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 frequen-
cy of which increases as the vehicle ap-
proaches 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 near-
er to the vehicle. When the obstacle is
near, the "Danger" symbol is displayed
in the screen.

9
DRIVING
177
In addition to the rear parking 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 forward gear, if no further ob-
stacles are detected or when the speed
of the vehicle exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).






Front parking sensors

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.


Operating fault



The function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being
towed or a bicycle carrier is fi t-
ted (vehicle fi tted with a towbar
or bicycle carrier recommended
by CITROËN).

In bad weather or in winter, en-
sure that the sensors are not
covered with mud, ice or snow.
When reverse gear is engaged,
an audible signal (long beep) in-
dicates that the sensors may be
dirty.
Certain sound sources (motor-
cycle, lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.)
may trigger the audible signals
of the parking sensor system.
In the event of a malfunction
of the system, when reverse
gear is engaged this warn-
ing lamp is displayed in the instrument
panel and/or a message appears in the
screen, accompanied by an audible
signal (short beep).
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.

The sound emitted by the speaker (front
or rear) indicates whether the obstacle
is in front or behind.
