Operating fault

If an automatic wiping fault occurs, the wipers
will operate in intermittent mode.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
To retain the effectiveness of the "flat-blade" wiper blades, it is advisable to:


- handle them with care,

- clean them regularly using soapywater,

- not use them to hold a sheet of cardboard against the windscreen,

- replace them at the first signs of wear.


Do not cover the rain sensor, linked with the sunshine sensor and located inthe centre of the windscreen behind the rear view mirror. Switch off the automatic wiping whenusing an automatic car wash.
In winter, it is advisable to wait until the windscreen is completely clear of ice before activating the automatic wiping.
This
position allows the wiper blades to be liftedfor winter parking, cleaning or replacement without damaging the bonnet.
In the minute following switching off of
the ignition, any action on the wiper stalkpositions the wipers vertically.
To park the wipers after this has been done,
switch on the ignition and operate the wiper stalk.

Driving
This section describes the use of the parking brake, the manual,electronic or automatic gearbox, the gear shift indicator and Stop & Star t
to help reduce fuel consumption, hill start assist, the speed limiter to
avoid exceeding a programmed speed, cruise control to maintain aprogrammed speed, the rear parking sensors to detect obstacles.

Rear parking sensors
System consisting of four proximity sensors,
located in the rear bumper.
This detects an
y obstacle (person, vehicle,
tree, gate, etc.) behind the vehicle, except
obstacles located just below the bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks cone or any other similar object may be detected at the beginning of themanoeuvre, but may no longer be detected when the vehicle comes close to it.
The parking sensor system cannot, in any circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of the driver. The system is activated as soon as reverse
gear is engaged, accompanied by an audible
signal. The proximity information is given by:


- an audible signal, which becomes
more rapid as the vehicle approaches
th
e obstacle.

- a graphic (according to version) in the
multifunction screen, with blocks whichbecome increasingly closer to the vehicle.

Activation
When the distance between the rear of thevehicle and the obstacle is less than thirtycentimetres, the audible signal becomescontinuous and the "Danger" symbol appears
in the multifunction screen.
On completion of the manoeuvre, when you exit
reverse gear, the system becomes inactive.

ProgrammingOperating faults

If there is an operating fault,
when reverse gear is engaged
this warning lamp comes on in the instrumentpanel, accompanied by an audible signal (short
beep) and a message in the multifunction screen. You can activate or deactivate the s
ystem bymeans of the multifunction screen configuration menu. The system state is memorised when
switching off the ignition.
For more information on access to the parkingsensors menu, refer to "Configuration/Vehic leparameters" in the "Multifunction screens"section corresponding to your screen.

The system will be deactivated automatically when towing a trailer or when a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehiclefitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by CITROËN).
