Selecting the function
- Place the switch in the LIMI t
position. The limiter is selected
but
is not yet active.
The

Programming a speed
A speed can be programmed without activating the
limiter but with the engine running.
To
memorise a speed higher than the previous
one:
- press the SE t + button.
A
brief press increases the speed by 1 mph
(km/h).
A
maintained press increases the speed in
steps
of 5 mph (km/h).
To
memorise a speed lower than the previous
one:
- press the SE t - button.
A
brief press decreases the speed by 1 mph
(km/h).
A
maintained press decreases the speed in
steps
of 5 mph (km/h).
Activation / deactivation
Pressing this button once activates
the limiter, pressing the button again
deactivates it
(OFF).

Recirculation
temporarily
prevents exterior odours

Used with the setting of the fan speed
(from

to
attain
the desired comfort level more
quickly
with both hot or cold settings.
This
position should only be temporary.
When
your desired comfort level has
been
reached, return to the intake
of

renewal of the air in the passenger

and avoid misting.
This
is
the
preferred operating mode.

Good practice
For maximum cooling or heating of the passenger compartment, it is possible
to exceed the value 15 by turning until
LO
is displayed or the value 27 by
turning
until HI is displayed.
o
n entering the vehicle, the inside
temperature
may be much colder
(or
warmer) than is comfortable.
There
is no advantage in changing the value
displayed
in order to quickly reach the

of comfort required.

will
use its maximum performance to
reach
the comfort value set.

These systems are linked and complement the ABS.
The
ASR
system is very useful for
maintaining
optimum drive and
avoiding losses of control of the vehicle
on
acceleration.
The
system optimises drive to prevent
the
wheels skidding, by acting on the
brakes
of the drive wheels and on the
engine.
It also allows the directional
stability
of the vehicle to be improved
on
acceleration.
Use the
d SC to hold your course
without
attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory
followed by the vehicle and
that
required by the driver, the DSC
system
automatically acts on the
engine
and the brake of one or more
wheels,
in order to put the vehicle back
on
course.
deactivation
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting the vehicle when stuck in mud
or
snow, or on loose ground...), it could
prove useful to deactivate the a
SR and
DSC
systems to make the wheels spin
and
regain grip.
Operating fault
Good practice
The ASR/DSC systems offer increased safety
during normal driving, but
should
not incite the driver to take risks
or
to drive at high speed.
The
operation of these systems is
ensured
if the recommendations
of
the manufacturer regarding
the
wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking
components, the electronic
components
and the fitting and repair
procedures
are observed.
After
an impact, have these systems
checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
workshop.
Operation
The warning lamp flashes when operation of the a SR or
DSC
is triggered.
t
hey engage again:
-
automatically
above 30 mph
(50
km/h), When
a malfunction of the systems
occurs, the warning
lamp
and the LED come on,
accompanied
by an audible
signal
and a message in the
screen.
-
Press the button or turn
the dial to the
d SC o FF
position (depending on
model).
-
The
LED comes on: the
ASR
and
DSC
systems no longer come into
play
. -
manually
by pressing the
button again or by turning
the dial to this position
(depending
on model).Contact a CITR
o Ë n dealer or a
qualified
workshop to have the system
checked.
The
warning lamp may also come on if
the
tyres are under-inflated. Check the
pressure
of each tyre.

correct use
Y our vehicle is designed principally to
drive
on tarmac roads but it allows you
to drive on other less passable terrain
occasionally
.
However, particularly when your
vehicle is heavily laden, it does not
permit
off-road activities such as:
-
crossing and driving on ground
which
could damage the underbody
or
tear off components (fuel pipe,
fuel
cooler, ...), particularly by
obstacles or stones,
-
driving on ground with steep
gradients and poor grip,
-
crossing
a stream.
On

that
the heaviest objects are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight is close to the

authorised without, however,
exceeding
it.
c
ooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the
coolant temperature.a s the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the
engine speed.
You should therefore use a high gear
to lower the engine speed and reduce
your
speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant
temperature.

A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox
in neutral.

Good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep
slope in high temperatures), the
engine
automatically limits its power.
In this case,
the air conditioning is
automatically
cut off to save engine
power
.
tyres
Check
the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer
, observing the
recommended
pressures.

towbar
We recommend the use of genuine CITRo Ë n towbars and their
harnesses, which have been tested
and
approved from the design stage of
your vehicle, and that you entrust the
fitting
of this equipment to a CITROËN
dealer
.
If
this equipment is not fitted by a
CITROËN
dealer, it is imperative that
it
is fitted using the electrical pre-
equipment
installed at the rear of the
vehicle and in accordance with the
manufacturer's
instructions.
In accordance with the general
instructions
a reminder of which has
been given above, we draw your
attention
to the risk associated with
fitting
a towbar or electrical accessory
not
recommended by CITROËN.
Fitting
such equipment could result in
the failure of your vehicle's electronic
system.
Please obtain information from
the
Manufacturer before fitting this type
