Blind spot sensors
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
-
immediately, when being over taken,
- after a delay of about one second, whenover taking a vehicle slowly. This drivin
g assistance system warns the driver
of the presence of another vehicle in the blind
spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from
the driver's field of vision), as soon as thispresents a potential danger.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpersmonitor the blind spots.
This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver'sresponsibility to constantly check the traffic, to asses the distances and relative speeds of other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.
The blind spot sensor system can never replace the vigilance and responsibility of thedriver.
Activation of the system is done in the " Driving assistance
" menu, with the ignition on.
)
Press this button to activate the
function; the associated indicator lamp comes on.
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel.

comes on in the door mirror on the side in
question as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry,
bicycle - is detected and the following conditions are fulfilled:
- all the vehicles must be moving in the same
direction,
- the speed of your vehicle is between 7 and 87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
- the difference in speed between your
vehicle and the other vehicles must be lessthan 6 mph (10 km/h),
- the traffic must be flowing normally,
- in the case of an over taking manoeuvre,
if this is prolonged and the vehicle beingover taken remains in the blind spot,
- you are driving on a straight or slightly cur ved road,
- your vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a caravan...
No aler t will be given in the
following situations:
- in the presence of stationary objects (parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps,road signs...),
- with vehicles moving in the opposite
direction,
- driving on a sinuous road or a sharp corner,
- when overtaking
(or being over taken by) a
very long vehicle (lorry, coach...) which is at the same time detected at the rear in theblind spot angle and present in the driver's
for ward field of vision,
- in ver
y heavy traffic: vehicles detected in front and behind are confused with a lorryor a stationary object,
- when overtaking quickly.

lamp flashes then goes off.
Operating fault
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or aqualified workshop.
The system is automatically deactivated when towing with a towbar approved by CITROËN.
The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions (rain, hail...).
In par ticular, driving on a wet surface or moving from a dry area to a wet area can cause false alerts (for example, the presence of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot angle is interpreted as avehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure thatthe sensors are not covered by mud, iceor snow. Take care not to cover the warning zone in the door mirrors or the detectionzones on the front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels or other objects;they may hamper the correct operation of the system. The state o
f the system remains in memory on switching off the ignition.
