Parking sensors
REAR PARKING SENSORS
The audible system consists of four
proximity sensors, fitted in the rear bumper.
It detects any obstacle which comes within
range: person, vehicle, tree, fence, behind
the vehicle during the manoeuvre.
However, it will not be able to detect
obstacles located immediately below the
bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks
cone or any other similar object may be
detected at the beginning of the manoeuvre
but may no longer be detected when the
vehicle moves close to it.
This system does not take the place of the
vigilance and responsibility of the driver.
Stop the assistance
Change to neutral.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp or the service
warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, accompanied
by a message in the screen,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow.
Engage reverse gear
The proximity information is indicated by an
audible signal which becomes more frequent
as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
When the distance between the rear of
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately thirty centimetres, the audible
signal becomes continuous.
This function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed.
You are advised to obtain a towbar
recommended by CITROËN and have it
installed by a professional.
If anomalies are detected on engaging
reverse gear, the warning lamp comes on,
possibly accompanied by a message in the
screen.

Ventilation
CORRECT USE OF THE AIR
CONDITIONING
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in perfect working order.
Have the filter elements (air filter and
passenger compartment filter) replaced
regularly. If you drive in a dusty environment,
have them replaced twice as often.
It is normal that the condensation created by
the air conditioning system results in a flow
of water which may form a puddle under the
vehicle when parked.
If the system does not produce cold air, do
not use it and contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.
VENTS
For optimum distribution and diffusion of hot
or cool air in the passenger compartment,
there are:
- 2 adjustable central vents,
- 2 adjustable and closing side vents,
- 2 vents directed towards the floor of the
vehicle.
In order to be effective, the air conditioning
should only be used with the windows
closed. However, if the interior temperature
is high after a prolonged period parked
in the sun, first ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes.
For even air distribution, ensure that the
exterior air intake grille located at the base
of the windscreen is not obstructed and that
the side and central vents, the air outlets on
the floor and the air extractor at the rear are
open.
The air conditioning is useful in all seasons
as it eliminates condensation and air
humidity.

Practical information
LOAD SPACE FITTINGS
Stowing rings
There are 6 stowing rings on the rear floor to
