Steering mounted controls



Reactivation



- Press the button on the
end of the control again.
or


- Press the accelerator
pedal until a speed close
to the programmed
speed.

- Engage the gear selected when
programming the speed.
Your vehicle will return to the last programmed
speed.

When the system is activated, The "Cruise
control" warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel:
CRUISE CONTROL

"This is the speed at which the driver wishes
to drive".
This aid to driving in free-flowing traffic
enables the vehicle to maintain the speed
programmed by the driver, without use of the
accelerator pedal.
In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be greater
than 18 mph (30 km/h) with at least second
gear engaged on the manual gearbox.

Selecting the function



- Place the ring in the
ON
position. The cruise
control is selected but
is not yet active and
no speed has been
programmed.



First activation/
Programming a speed


- Reach the chosen
speed by pressing the
accelerator.

- Move the control up (+) for at least one
second then release it.
This programmes the reference speed. You
can release the accelerator pedal, and the
vehicle will maintain this speed.


Temporarily exceeding
of the speed
It is possible to accelerate
and drive momentarily at
a speed greater than the
programmed speed (for
example to overtake another vehicle).
When the accelerator pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the programmed speed.


Deactivation



- Press the button on
the end of the control.
or


- Press the brake or
clutch pedal.
The cruise control is also deactivated if the
ABS or ESP system is invoked.

Gearbox and steering wheel


Good practice
To change gear smoothly, always press the
clutch pedal fully down.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedal:


- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,

- never fit one mat on top of another.

Avoid leaving your hand on the gear knob as
the force exerted, even if slight, may cause
wear of the internal components of the
gearbox over time.



MANUAL GEARBOX

Reverse gear

Never engage reverse gear until the vehicle
is completely stationary.
The lever should be moved slowly to reduce
the noise on engaging reverse gear.
If your vehicle is fitted with parking
sensors, the system comes into
operation when reverse gear is engaged,
confirmed by an audible signal.
Refer to the "Rear parking sensors"
section of chapter 3.
STEERING WHEEL ADJUSTMENT


When the vehicle is stationary, unlock the
steering wheel by pushing the lever down.
Adjust the depth and height of the steering
wheel, then lock by pulling the lever up fully.

Moving off



You must press the brake pedal.
Start the engine; the gearbox changes into
neutral automatically.
the gear lever stays in the position selected
before switching off the ignition.

"N"
appears in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by an audible signal when you
release the brake pedal, to indicate that there
is a difference between the position of the gear
lever and the gear selected in the gearbox.
Select first gear (move the lever towards +
)
or reverse (position R
).

"1"
or "R"
appears in the instrument panel
screen.
Release the parking brake.
Remove your foot from the brake pedal and
then accelerate away.

The AUTO or manual mode used before
switching off the ignition remains in
memory when the vehicle is restarted.

Stopping - Starting on a slope

This gearbox is an electronic gearbox which
does not have a clutch pedal.

Do not use the accelerator pedal to
immobilise the vehicle on a slope, apply
the parking brake instead; failure to
follow this procedure can overheat the
clutch and damage the gearbox .
When moving off on a slope, accelerate
gradually while releasing the parking brake.
It is also possible to move off in
2nd gear on slippery surfaces
(2nd press on le +).

Automated mode

Once you have moved off, you can switch to
automated mode by selecting position A/M
.

"AUTO"
and the gear engaged
appear in the instrument panel
screen.
The gearbox then operates in auto-active
mode, without any action on the part of
the driver.
It continuously selects the most appropriate
gear depending on the:


- vehicle speed,

- engine speed,

- accelerator pedal position.
To optimise driving comfort and obtain the
most suitable gear, avoid sharp variations in
the pressure on the accelerator pedal.
If you fully depress the accelerator pedal,
the gearbox changes down for sharper
acceleration. By rapidly pushing the accelerator fully
done, the vehicle moves off quickly.

READY TO GO



Gearbox and steering wheel



- with a manual gearbox
, with the vehicle
stationary, put the gear lever into neutral,
then release the clutch pedal,

- with an electronic gearbox
, with the
vehicle stationary, hold the brake pedal
down.
Special cases: STOP mode unavailable
The STOP mode is not invoked when:


- the driver’s door is open,

- the driver’s seat belt is not fastened,

- the heated rear screen is on,

- the windscreen wiper is on fast wipe,

- reverse gear is engaged,

- some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature, particle
filter regeneration, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a system.
In this case, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by the "S"
warning
lamp, which flashes for a few
seconds, then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.













STOP & START

The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode -
during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic
jams, or other...). The engine restarts
automatically - START mode - as soon as
you want to move off. The restart takes
place instantly, quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions and offers the comfort of
complete silence when stationary.

Operation


Going into engine STOP mode
The "S"
warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby: Automatic stopping of the engine is
only possible after the vehicle has
exceed a speed of about 6 mph (10 km/h),
to avoid repeated stopping of the engine
when driving slowly.
In the STOP mode Stop & Start, hill
start assist is inactive.
Never leave your vehicle with out first
turning off the ignition with the key.

Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key.

Gearbox and steering wheel


Special cases: START invoked
automatically
The START mode is invoked automatically
when:


- the vehicle’s is free wheeling on a slope,

- the windscreen wiper is on fast wipe,

- the engine has been stopped for around
3 minutes with Stop & Start,

- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a system.
Good practice
With a manual gearbox in STOP mode, if a
gear is engaged without fully depressing the
clutch pedal, restarting may not take place.
A warning lamp or message is displayed
in the instrument panel asking you to fully
depress the clutch pedal to allow restarting.
With the engine stopped in STOP mode,
if the driver unfasten’s their seat belt and
opens a front door, the engine can only
be restarted using the ignition key. This is
indicated by an audible signal, accompanied
by flashing of the service warning lamp and
a message in the instrument panel screen.
If following an automatic restart in START
mode, the driver takes no action on the
the vehicle during the next 3 minutes, the
system stops the engine definitively. The
engine can then only be restarted using
the key.

Going into engine START mode
The "S"
warning lamp goes off and
the engine starts:


- with a manual gearbox
, depress the
clutch pedal,

- with an electronic gearbox
:


●
gear lever in position A
or M
, release the
brake pedal,

●
or engage reverse gear.

In this case, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by the "S"
warning
lamp, which flashes for a few
seconds, then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.
In STOP mode, moving the gear
lever on an electronic gearbox
starts the engine, in anticipation of
moving off.
If the engine stops automatically when
the vehicle is on a slope, as hill start
is only active with the engine running, it is
necessary to restart the engine by engaging
a forward gear and releasing the brake
pedal.

Deactivation


To give precedence to the control
of the temperature in the passenger
compartment, the Stop & Start
system should be deactivated to
allow continuous operation of the air
conditioning.
The system is reactivated automatically
at every new start using the key.
At any time, press the "S - OFF"
switch to
deactivate the system.
This is confirmed by the switch warning lamp
coming on accompanied by a message in
the instrument panel screen.
If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.

Operating fault
Maintenance


In the event of a fault with
the system, the Stop & Start
system is deactivated and the
service warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by a message in the
instrument panel screen.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of an operating fault with STOP
mode, it is possible to restart the engine by
depressing the clutch pedal fully and putting
the gear lever into neutral. Before working under the bonnet, you
must switch off the ignition with the
key to avoid any risk of injury resulting from
automatic operation of START mode.
This system requires a specific battery
with a special specification and technology
(reference numbers available from a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by
CITROËN introduces the risk of malfunction
of the system.
The Stop & Start system makes use
of advanced technology. Specialist
knowledge is needed for any work on the
system, which can only be assured by
CITROËN dealers.


Reactivation

Press the "S - OFF"
switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off and a
message in the instrument panel screen.
