Heating and Ventilation


Controls

The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver, the front passenger and rear
passengers.
The temperature control enables you to obtain
the level of comfort required by mixing the air of
the various circuits.
The air distribution control enables you to
select the air vents used in the passenger
compartment by the combined use of the
associated buttons.
The air flow control enables you to increase or
reduce the speed of the ventilation fan.
These controls are grouped together on control
panel A
on the centre console.

Switching the system off




Turn the air flow control to the
left until all of the indicator
lamps go off.

Avoid prolonged operation in interior
air recirculation mode or driving for
long periods with the system off (risk of
condensation and deterioration of air
quality). This action switches off the air conditioning and
the ventilation.
Temperature related comfort is no longer
assured but a slight flow of air, due to the
movement of the vehicle, can still be felt.

Modify the settings (temperature, air flow
or air distribution) or press the "AUTO "

button to reactivate the system with the
values set before it was switched off.

Stop & Start


Operation


Going into engine STOP mode

The "ECO"
warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:


- with a manual gearbox
, at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) or vehicle stationary with
the Blue HDi 120 version, when you place
the gear lever in neutral, and you release
the clutch pedal,

- with an electronic gearbox
, at speeds
below 5 mph (8 km/h), when you press
the brake pedal or put the gear lever in
position N
,

- with an automatic gearbox
, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or put the gear lever in position N
. If your vehicle is fitted with the system, a time
counter calculates the sum of the periods in
STOP mode during a journey. It resets itself to
zero every time the ignition is switched on with
the START/STOP button.

Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the START/STOP button.
For your comfort, during parking
maoeuvres, STOP mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...


Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:


- the vehicle is on a steep slop (rising or
falling),

- the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,

- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start using
the START/STOP button,

- the electric parking brake is applied or
being applied,

- the engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,

- demisting is active,

- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO"
warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds then goes
off. 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.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.

This operation is per fectly normal.

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 par ticularly 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 surface,

- 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 obser ve the driving
regulations and to take a break every
two hours.

Lighting controls

conditions and to improve lighting at
intersections and when parking,
