Engage reverse gear
An audible signal confi rms the activation of the
system by engaging reverse gear.
The proximity information is indicated by an audible
signal which becomes more rapid as the vehicle
approaches the obstacle. When the distance
between the rear of the vehicle and the obstacle
is less than approximately thirty centimetres, the
audible signal becomes continuous.
Stop the assistance
Change to neutral.
REAR PARKING SENSORS
The audible and/or visual rear parking
sensor system consists of four proximity
sensors, installed in the rear bumper. The
sensors detect any obstacle which enters
the field: person, vehicle, tree, fence, behind
the vehicle during the manoeuvre.
Certain objects detected at the beginning of
the manoeuvre will no longer be detected
at the end of the manoeuvre due to the
blind spots between and below the sensors.
Examples: stake, roadworks cone or
pavement post.
Activation / Deactivation
You can activate or deactivate the
system by pressing this button.
The activation or deactivation of
the system is stored when the
vehicle stops.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, when reverse
gear is engaged the LED in the button
comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the screen. Contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow.
The system will be deactivated automatically
if a trailer is being towed or if a bicycle
carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with a
towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by
CITROËN).
The parking assistance cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the
vigilance and responsibility of the driver.
Display in the screen
You are advised to deactivate the system if
your vehicle is fitted with a rear ladder or if
you are transporting a load which exceeds
the length of the vehicle.

Checks
Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
To check the main levels and certain
components, in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule, refer
to the pages of the servicing and warranty
booklet which correspond to your vehicle's
engine.
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units as
important as the braking system, CITROËN
selects and offers specific products.
In order to avoid damaging the electrical
units, high pressure washing to clean the
engine compartment is strictly prohibited.
After washing the vehicle dampness, or in
winter, ice may form on the brake discs and
pads: braking efficiency may be reduced.
Make some light brake applications to dry
and de-ice the brakes.
Bleeding the water contained in the
Diesel filter
If this warning lamp comes on,
bleed the filter. Otherwise bleed
regularly each time the engine oil
is changed.
To evacuate the water, unscrew the bleed
screw located on the end of the transparent
pipe.
Operate until all of the water in the
transparent pipe has been drained out then
tighten the bleed screw.
HDi engines use advanced technology.
Contact a CITROËN or a qualified workshop
for all work on the system.

During this regeneration, you may notice
that the idling speed is higher than normal
and that the cooling fan is running. As
operation of the exhaust emissions controls
may cause the exhaust gas temperature to
reach very high levels, it is recommended
that you do not stop the vehicle over easily
inflammable surfaces (dry grass and leaves,
pine needles, edge of a meadow or forest).
