Speed limiter
System which prevents the vehicle from
exceeding the speed programmed by the driver.
When the programmed speed limit is reached,
pressing the accelerator pedal no longer has
any effect.
The speed limiter cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to
respect speed limits, nor can it replace
the need for vigilance and responsibility
on the part of the driver. The functions of this system are grouped
together on the steering mounted controls.

Steering mounted controls

Operation

The speed limiter is switched on
manually:
it requires a programmed speed of at least
20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is switched off
by manual
operation of the control.
The programmed speed can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly
beyond the point of resistance.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
The programmed speed remains in the memory
when the ignition is switched off.






This information also appears in the
head-up display.
For more information, refer to the
"Head-up display" section.

The cruise control system cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to respect speed
limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the driver.
You are advised to keep your feet near the pedals
at all times.






Cruise control
System which automatically maintains the
speed of the vehicle at the value programmed
by the driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
The functions of this system are grouped
together on the steering mounted controls.

Displays in the instrument panel


Operation

The cruise control is switched on
manually:
it requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h) and engagement of:


- fourth gear on a manual gearbox,

- second gear on an electronic or automatic
gearbox, in sequential driving mode,

- position A
on an electronic gearbox or D
on
an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off
manually
or by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on
triggering of the "electronic stability control"
system for safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.






This information also appears in the
head-up display.
For more information, refer to the
"Head-up display" section.

Cornering lighting


With dipped or main beams, this function
makes use of the beam from a front foglamp
to illuminate the inside of a bend, when the
vehicle speed is below 25 mph (approximately
40 km/h) (urban driving, winding road,
intersections, parking manouevres...).

Switching on

This function starts:


- when the corresponding direction indicator
is switched on,
or

- from a certain angle of rotation of the
steering wheel.



Switching off

The system does not operate:


- below a certain angle of rotation of the
steering wheel,

- above 25 mph (40 km/h),

- when reverse gear is engaged.



Programming

The system is activated or
deactivated in the vehicle
configuration menu.
The system is activated by default.

181Safety





Horn








Emergency or
assistance call

This system allows you to make an emergency
or assistance call to the emergency ser vices or
to the dedicated CITROËN ser vice. Audible warning system to alert other road
users to an imminent danger.



Press the central part of the multifunction
steering wheel.
Use the horn moderately and only in the
following circumstances:


- immediate danger,

- overtaking a cyclist or pedestrian

- approaching a location lacking
visibility.
For more information on the use of
this function, refer to the "Audio and
telematics" section.

189Safety
Airbags


System designed to maximise the safety of the
occupants (with the exception of the rear centre
passenger) in the event of violent collisions.
The airbags supplement the action of the force-
limiting seat belts (with the exception of the
centre rear passenger).
If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side impacts
sustained in the impact detection zones:


- in the case of a serious impact, the airbags
are deployed instantly and contribute
towards better protection of the occupants
of the vehicle (with the exception of the
rear centre passenger); immediately after
the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly so
that they do not hinder visibility or the exit
of the occupants,

- in the case of a minor or rear impact
or in certain roll-over conditions, the
airbags will not be deployed; the seat belt
alone contributes towards ensuring your
protection in these situations.

The airbags do not operate when the
ignition is switched off.

This equipment will only deploy once.
If a second impact occurs (during the
same or a subsequent accident), the
airbag will not be deployed again. Deployment of the airbag(s) is
accompanied by a slight emission
of smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight
irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time.



Impact detection zones



A.
Front impact zone.

B.
Side impact zone.
















Front airbags


Deployment
The airbags are deployed, except the passenger's
front airbag if it is deactivated, in the event of a serious
front impact to all or part of the front impact zone A
,
in the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the front to the rear
of the vehicle.
The front airbag inflates between the thorax and head
of the front occupant of the vehicle and the steering
wheel, driver's side, and the dashboard, passenger's
side to cushion their for ward movement.

System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious front impact
in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and
thorax.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag is
fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.

Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object...). This could hamper the operation of
the airbags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned
are obser ved, a risk of injury or of minor
burns to the head, chest or arms when an
airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. The
bag inflates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then deflates within the same
time discharging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.


Lateral airbags

Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a CITROËN dealer.
Refer to the "Accessories" section.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs (clothing...). This could cause injury
to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is
deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.



Front airbags

Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its
spokes or resting your hands on the centre
part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the
dashboard.
If possible, do not smoke as deployment of
the airbags can cause burns or the risk of
injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or
hit it violently.















For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:


Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This
could cause injury to the head if the curtain
airbag is deployed.
If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they play
a part in securing the curtain airbags.
