temporaril
y by pressing the accelerator firmly.
To return to the programmed speed, simply slow down to a speed below the programmed speed.
The programmed speed remains in the memorywhen the ignition is switched off.

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 cruise control is switched on
manually: itrequires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h), as well as the engagement of:
- fourth gear on a manual gearbox,
- second gear on a or automatic or electronic
gearbox, in sequential mode,
-
position A
on an electronic gearbox or position 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 programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any programmed speed value. The controls o

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 detectedwhen 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 the
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 the vehicleand the obstacle is less than thir ty centimetres, the
audible si
gnal becomes continuous and the "Danger"symbol appears in the multifunction screen.
On completion of the manoeuvre, when you exit
reverse gear, the system becomes inactive.

Checks






Checking levels

Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the maintenance and warranty guide. 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 maintenance and warranty guide
for details of the interval 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 be the correct grade for your
en
gine and conform to the manufacturer'srecommendations.

Brake fluid level


Changing the fl uid

Refer to the maintenance and warranty guidefor details of the inter val for this operation.


Fluid specifi cation

The brake fluid must conform to themanufacturer's recommendations and meet
the DOT4 l o w v i s c o s i ty / ISO 4925 Class6 standard. Th
e brake fluid level should be close
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrumentpanel, or using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil levelbetween two ser vices (or oil changes).CITROËN recommends that you check the level, and top up if necessary, every3 000 miles (5 000 kms). After topping up the oil, the check when switching on the ignition with the oil level indicator in the instrument panel is not valid during the 30 minutes after topping up.

Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could star t atany time (even with the ignition off).

It will onl
y be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.
