Lane departure warning system
System which, using a camera which recognises solid or broken lines, detects the involuntary crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings on the ground. To provide safe driving, the camera analyses the image then, if the driver's attention drops, triggers a warning if the vehicle drifts over a lane marking (speed higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)). This system is particularly useful on motor ways and main roads.
Activation
Press this button, the indicator lamp comes on.
The lane departure warning system cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need for vigilance and responsibility on the part of the driver.
Deactivation
You are warned by the vibration of the driver's seat cushion: - on the right-hand side, if the marking on the ground has been crossed on the right, - on the left-hand side, if the marking on the ground has been crossed on the left. No warning is transmitted while the direction indicator is active and for approximately 20 seconds after the direction indicator is switched off.
Detection - alert
Operating fault
The detection may be impeded: - if the markings on the ground are worn, - if there is little contrast between the markings on the ground and the road sur face, - if the windscreen is dirty, - in certain severe weather conditions: fog, heavy rain, snow, bright sunlight or direct exposure to the sun (low sun, leaving a tunnel, ...) and shade.
Press this button again, the indicator lamp goes off.
In the event of a fault, the indicator lamp in the button flashes. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
The status of the system remains in the memory when the ignition is switched off. It is necessary to observe the driving regulations and to take a break every
two hours.
DS5-HYBRID_EN_CHAP05_VISIBILITE_ED02-2013
The sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are switched on automatically, without any action on the part of the driver, when a low level of external light is detected or in certain cases of activation of the windscreen wipers. As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers are switched off, the lamps are switched off automatically.
Automatic illumination of headlamps
Activation
Turn the ring to the "AUTO" position, automatic illumination of headlamps is activated and a message is displayed in the screen.
Deactivation
Turn the ring to another position. Deactivation is accompanied by a message in the screen.
Association with the automatic "Guide-me-home" lighting
Association with the automatic lighting provides the "guide-me-home" lighting with the following additional options after the ignition is switched off: - selection of the lighting duration of 15, 30 or 60 seconds in the vehicle parameters in the vehicle configuration menu, - automatic activation of "guide-me-home" lighting when automatic illumination of headlamps is in operation.
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the sunshine sensor, the lighting comes on, this warning lamp is displayed in the instrument panel and/or a message appears in the screen, accompanied by an audible signal. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may detect sufficient light. In this case, the lighting will not come on automatically. Do not cover the sunshine sensor, coupled with the rain sensor and located in the centre of the windscreen behind the rear view mirror; the associated functions would no longer be controlled.
DS5-HYBRID_EN_CHAP05_VISIBILITE_ED02-2013
Parking lamps
Side markers for the vehicle by illumination of the sidelamps on the traffic side only. Within one minute of switching off the ignition, operate the lighting control stalk
up or down depending on the traffic side (for example: when parking on the left; lighting control stalk upwards; the right hand sidelamps are on). This is confirmed by an audible signal and illumination of the corresponding direction indicator warning lamp in the instrument panel. To switch off the parking lamps, return the lighting control stalk to the middle position or switch on the ignition.
Temporarily keeping the dipped beam headlamps on after the vehicle's ignition has been switched off makes the exit of the vehicle's occupants easier when the light is poor.
Manual guide-me-home
lighting
Switching on
Within one minute after switching of the ignition, "flash" the headlamps using the lighting stalk. A further "headlamp flash" switches the function off.
Switching off
The manual guide-me-home lighting switches off automatically after a set time (this time is programmable in the configuration menu).
The system may suffer interference or not work correctly: - under conditions of poor visibility (for example, snowfall, heavy rain or thick fog, ...), - if the windscreen is dirty, misted or obscured (by a sticker, ...) in front of the camera, - if the vehicle is facing highly reflective signs.
The system is not able to detect: - road users that do not have their own lighting, such as pedestrians, - road users whose lighting is obscured, such as vehicles running behind a safety barrier (on a motor way, for example), - road users at the top or bottom of a steep slope, on twisty roads, on crossroads.

When the dipped or main beam headlamps are on, this function, allows the light beams to better follow the road. The use of this function, coupled with the xenon headlamps and the cornering lighting, considerably improves the quality of your lighting round bends.
Directional lighting

without directional lighting
Programming
Operating fault
The system is activated or deactivated in the vehicle configuration menu. The system is activated by default. The state of the system stays in memory on switching off the ignition.
This function is inactive: - when stationary or at low speeds, - when reverse is engaged.
If a fault occurs, this warning lamp flashes in the instrument panel, accompanied by a message in the screen. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
