Access


ALARM

This provides:


- exterior perimeter protection by means of
detectors on the doors and bonnet and
on the electrical supply,

- interior protection,

- anti-tilt protection,

- protection against the unauthorised
insertion of a key in the starter.
The equipment includes a siren.


Activation of the alarm

First ensure that all of the accesses are
closed correctly.
The alarm is activated by
pressing this control, the
protection is active after a
few seconds.
While the alarm is monitoring, any intrusion
triggers the siren for approximately
30 seconds, accompanied by illumination of
the direction indicators.
The alarm then returns to monitoring mode.
The alarm is also triggered following an
electrical supply cut-off, when the supply is
restored.


Deactivation using the remote control

Deactivation using the key

Unlock the doors using the key and enter
the vehicle. Switch on the ignition to the
RUNNING position, identification of the key
code will switch off the alarm.


Deactivation of the volumetric and
anti-tilt protection
Good practice

To quickly deactivate the siren following
unwanted triggering, unlock the vehicle
using the remote control.
To avoid setting the alarm, before washing
the vehicle for example, lock the vehicle
using the key.
When this button is pressed, the
alarm is deactivated when the
vehicle is unlocked.


Signalling of attempted intrusion

When you return to your vehicle,
flashing of the electronic engine
immobiliser warning lamp or
the appearance of a warning
message in the instrument panel display
indicates an attempted intrusion during your
absence.
To deactivate the volumetric
and anti-tilt protection, press the
button located in the vehicle's
courtesy lamp. To be effective,
this operation must be repeated every time
the ignition is switched off.

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.

SAFETY



Driving safely


HORN

Press the centre of the steering wheel.


Anti-lock braking system and
electronic brake force distribution
Linked systems which improve the stability
and manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking, in particular on poor or slippery
surfaces.

















BRAKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS

Group of supplementary systems which help
you to obtain optimum braking in complete
safety in emergency situations:


- anti-lock braking system (ABS),

- electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD),

- emergency braking assistance (EBA).
Activation
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal accompanied by some noise.


When braking in an emergency, press
very fi rmly without releasing the pressure.


Operating fault

If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument
panel screen, it indicates a fault with
the anti-lock braking system which could result
in loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
If this warning lamp comes on,
together with the ABS
warning
lamp, accompanied by a message
in the instrument panel screen, it
indicates a fault with the electronic
brake force distribution which could result in
loss of control of the vehicle when braking.

You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.


Good practice
The ABS system does not provide shorter
braking distances. On very slippery surfaces
(black ice, oil...) the ABS can extend braking
distances. For emergency braking, press the
brake pedal hard and do not release it, even
on a slipper surface; you will then be able to
steer the vehicle and avoid an obstacle.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
In either case, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
For maximum braking efficiency, a
bedding-in period of around 300 miles
(500 kilometres) is needed. During this
period it is recommended that you avoid
harsh, repeated or prolonged braking.

138
Towing a trailer

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,
automatic cutting off of the air conditioning
allows the engine power to be saved.
If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.

Tyres:
check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identification
markings" section of chapter 7) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressures.

Brakes:
towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually.
Side wind:
sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed.

ABS:
the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.

Rear parking sensors:
the sensors
will be deactivated automatically
when an genuine CITROËN towbar is used
(see the "Rear parking sensors" section of
chapter 3).

Towbar

We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle, and that
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If this equipment is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it is essential that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment located at
the rear of the vehicle and following the
manufacturer's instructions.
The operation of the rear parking sensors is
deactivated automatically when the trailer
cable connector is inserted in the towbar
socket.
When the trailer cable is removed, the rear
parking sensors are re-activated.
Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest objects are as close as possible
to the axle and the nose weight is close to
the maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it. The air density decreases with
altitude, so reducing the performance of
the engine. The maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10 % for each 1 000 metres
of altitude. Refer to the "Technical data"
chapter for details of the weights and
towed loads applicable to your vehicle
and also to the administrative documents
(V5 registration document, ...).
