Adjusting the cruise speed
setting
The cruise control must be activated. As a precaution, it is recommended
that the cruise speed chosen be close
to the current speed of your vehicle, so
as to avoid any sudden acceleration or
deceleration of the vehicle.
To modify the cruise speed setting from the
current speed of the vehicle:
F

i
n steps of + or - 1 mph (km/h), make
repeated short presses on button 2 or 3 ,
F

c
ontinuously, in steps of + or - 5 mph
(km/h), press and hold button 2 or 3 .
Take care: pressing and holding
button
2 or 3 results in a rapid change
in the speed of your vehicle.
To modify the cruise speed setting using
memorised speeds and from your Audio
system:
F

w
ith the system first activated.
For more information on memorising speeds,
refer to the corresponding section.
F

m
ake a long press on button 2 or 3 , the
system displays the memorised speed
closest to the actual speed of the vehicle;
this setting becomes the new cruise speed,
F

t
o choose another memorised speed, make
another long press on button 2 or 3. To modify the cruise speed setting using
memorised speeds and from the touch screen:
F

p
ress button 5 to display the six memorised
speed settings,
F

ress the button for the desired speed
setting.
This setting becomes the new cruise speed.

135
Only use the cruise control if the traffic
conditions will allow you to drive for a
certain time at a steady speed and at a
safe distance from the vehicle ahead.
Do not activate the cruise control in
urban areas, in heavy traffic, on winding
or steep roads, on slippery or flooded
roads, or in conditions of poor visibility
(heavy rain, fog, falling snow...).
In some circumstances, it may not
be possible to maintain or reach the
programmed speed: towing, vehicle
heavily loaded, steep climb.
Switching off
You may have to brake to control the speed of
your vehicle. In this case, the cruise control is
automatically paused.
To activate the system again, press button 4.
Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speed
F Turn wheel 1 to the "0" position: the cruise
control information disappears from the
screen.
When required (overtaking manoeuvre...), it is
possible to exceed the programmed speed by
pressing the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is temporarily overridden
and the programmed speed setting flashes.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Once the vehicle has returned to the
programmed speed, the cruise control takes
over again: the display of the programmed
speed setting becomes steady again.
When descending a steep hill, the
cruise control system cannot prevent
the vehicle from exceeding the
programmed speed.
Operating fault
Flashing dashes indicate a fault with the cruise
control system.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. The use of mats not approved by
CITROËN may inter fere with the
operation of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:
-

e
nsure that the mat is positioned
c o r r e c t l y,
-

n
ever fit one mat on top of another.
driving

This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
which comes within the field of detection of
sensors located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworks
cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer be
detected at the end of the manoeuvre, if they
are located in blind spots in the sensors' field
of detection.
Parking sensors
This system cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Rear parking sensors
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of which
increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)
indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the screen which move
progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed in the screen.
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
g e a r.
This is confirmed by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.

137
In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered with
mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is
engaged, an audible signal (long beep)
indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle,
lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger
the audible signals of the parking
sensor system.
In the event of a malfunction of the
system, when reverse gear is engaged
this warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the screen, accompanied
by an audible signal (short beep).
Operating fault
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of
the vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in for ward gear, if no further obstacles are
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front parking
sensors
The function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed
or a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle
fitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier
recommended by CITROËN).
deactivation / Activation of
the front and rear parking
sensors
The function is deactivated by pressing this
button. The indicator lamp in the button
comes on.
Pressing this button again reactivates the
function. The indicator lamp in the button
goes off.
The sound emitted by the speaker (front
or rear) indicates whether the obstacle
is in front or behind. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
driving

Reversing camera
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image from the camera is displayed in the
touch screen.
The reversing camera system may be
accompanied by parking sensors.The blue lines represent the general direction
of the vehicle.
The blue curved lines represent the maximum
turning circle.
The green lines represent distances of around
1 to 2 metres beyond the edge of the vehicle's
rear bumper.
The red line represents the distance of around
30 cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r. The lines displayed in the screen do not
allow the position of the vehicle to be
determined relative to tall obstacles
(for example: vehicles nearby).
Some deformation of the image is
normal.
This system is a driving aid that does
not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver, who must remain
in control of the vehicle at all times.
High pressure jet washing
When cleaning your vehicle, keep the
end of the high pressure lance at least
30 cm from the camera lens.
Clean the camera lens regularly using
a soft cloth.

the marking.
Visibility

When a low level of ambient light is detected
by a sunshine sensor, the number plate
lamps,
s
idelamps and dipped beam headlamps
are switched on automatically, without any
action on the part of the driver. They can also
come on if rain is detected, at the same time as
automatic operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the ambient light returns to a
sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers
are switched off, the lamps are switched off
automatically.
Activation
F Turn the ring to the "AUTO" position. The
activation of the function is accompanied
by the display of a message in the screen.
deactivation
F Turn the ring to another position. Deactivation of the function is
accompanied by the display of a message
in the screen. When the automatic illumination of headlamps
function is activated (lighting control stalk in the
"AUTO"
position), under low ambient light the
dipped beam headlamps remain on when the
ignition is switched off.
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.
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.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Programming
Automatic guide-me-home

as the duration of the guide-me-
home lighting, is set in the vehicle
configuration menu.
