When the vehicle has moved off, selectposition M
to change to manual mode. )
Operate the +or -steering mounted control
paddles.
Adisappears and the gears engaged
appear successively in the instrument
panel screen.
When braking or slowing down, the gearbox changes down automatically to permit
acceleration in the correct gear.
This selective
gear change mode enables you
to over take, for example, while still remaining in automatic mode.)Operate the + or -
steering mounted controlpaddle.
The gearbox engages the gear requested if the engine speed permits. A
is still displayed in theinstrument panel.
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
during gear changes.

When immobilising the vehicle, with the hybrid system active, you must place the gear selector in neutral N.Before carrying out any work in the
engine compar tment, check that the gear selector is in neutral N and that the parking brake is applied.



Stopping the vehicle

With the ignition on, the flashing of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message
in the instrument panel screen, indicates a
malfunction of the gearbox.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. Be
fore switching off the engine, you can choose to:


- move to position N
to engage neutral,

- leave the gear engaged; in this case, it will
not be possible to move the vehicle.

In both cases, you should apply the parkingbrake to immobilise the vehicle.

Operating fault

You must press the brake pedal when star ting the engine.
Whatever the circumstances, you must manually apply the parking brake when
parking, unless the parking brake isprogrammed in automatic mode.



Never leave children unsupervised in the vehicle with the hybrid system active.


For your safety, this function will only be activated if you press the brakepedal when engaging for ward drive or reverse.

This function is deactivated if thedriver's door is opened. To reactivate it, close the door and then press the brake or accelerator pedal.
Creep function (moving
without the accelerator
)
This function facilitates manoeuvring of the
vehicle at low speed (when parking, in traffic jams, …).
With the hybrid system active and the parking
brake released, if position A, M or R
is selected, the vehicle moves as soon as you
take your foot off the brake pedal (even without any action on the accelerator).

141Driving
)With the hybrid system activated, press button 1. The activated/deactivated status
when the engine was switched off is retained
when the engine is switched on again.
The strip retracts automatically 3 seconds after switching off the engine except in STOP mode
of Stop & Star t.

Activation / Deactivation
)
With the hybrid system active, adjust
the brightness of the information using button 3:


- towards the rear to increase thebrightness,

- 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.


Height adjustment
)With the hybrid system active, adjust
the display to the required height using
button 2 :
- towards the rear to move the display up,
- towards the front to move the display down.

Visibility

Lighting left on audible signal
An audible signal when a front door
is opened warns the driver that the vehicle's exterior lighting is on, with theignition off and in manual lighting mode.
In this case, switching off the lighting stops the audible signal.
With the ignition off, if the dipped headlamps remain on, the vehicle goes into "ECO" mode to avoid discharging the battery.

In some weather conditions (e.g. low temperature or humidity), the presence of misting on the internal sur face of theglass of the headlamps and rear lampsis normal; it disappears after the lamps have been on for a few minutes.

The daytime runninglamps can be activated and deactivated via the configuration menu.



The lighting goes off when you switchoff the ignition, but you can always switch it on again using the lighting control stalk.
Daytime running lamps
(LEDs)
They come on when the engine is star ted.
Depending on the country of sale or whererequired by regulations, they are used for:
- daytime running lamps in day mode andsidelamps in night mode (they are brighter
when daytime running lamps), or
- sidelamps in day and night mode.

Safety
Electronic Stability Programme incorporating
the following systems:


- the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),

- the emergency braking assistance,

- the anti-slip regulation (ASR) or tractioncontrol,

- the dynamic stability control (DSC).






























Electronic stability programme (ESC)
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking and provides improved control in corners, in par ticular on poor or slippery road surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution system
manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking pressure more quickly and therefore reduce the stopping distance. It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an increase in the effectiveness of the braking.

Anti-slip regulation (ASR)

The ASR system (also known as Traction Control) optimises traction in order to avoid
wheel slip b
y acting on the brakes of the drivingwheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle onacceleration.


Dynamic stability control (DSC)

If there is a difference between the path followed by the vehicle and that required bythe driver, the DSC monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws of physics.

Safety
Dynamic stability control (DSC)

Activation
This system is activated automatically eachtime the vehicle is started.
It comes into operation in the event of a grip or
tra
jectory problem.
This is indicated by
flashing of thiswarning lamp in the instrument panel.

Deactivation

In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate
the DSC system, so that the wheels can move freely and regain grip.

The DSC system offers exceptional
safety in normal driving, but this should not encourage the driver to take extra risks or drive at high speed.
The correct operation of the system depends on obser vation of the manufacturer's recommendationsregarding the wheels (tyres and rims),the braking components, the electronic components and the CITROËN assembly and operation procedures.
After an impact, have the systemchecked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

Operating fault


If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument
panel screen, this indicates a fault
with the s
ystem.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualifiedworkshop to have the system checked.
Reactivation
The system is reactivated automatically each
time the ignition is switched back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).
) Press the button.
This warnin
g lamp and the indicator
lamp in the button come on: the
DSC s
ystem no longer acts on theoperation of the engine.
)
Press the button again to
reactivate it manually. But it is recommended that the s
ystem be
reactivated as soon as possible.
