HILL StA rt  ASSIS t
This system (also called HHC - Hill Holder 
Control), linked to the dynamic stability 
control system, makes hill starts easier and 
is activated in the following conditions:
-
 
the vehicle must be stationary
 , engine 
running, foot on the brake,
-
 
the gradient of the road must be steeper
  
than 5%,
-
 
uphill, the gearbox must be in neutral or
  
in a gear other than reverse,
-
 
downhill, reverse gear must be engaged.
The Hill Start 
Assist system is a driving 
aid. It is not an automatic vehicle parking 
function or an automatic parking brake.Operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal 
pressed, from the time you release the brake 
pedal, without using the parking brake, you 
have approximately 2 seconds to move off 
before the vehicle starts to roll back.
During the moving off phase, the function 
is deactivated automatically, gradually 
releasing the braking pressure. During 
this phase, the characteristic noise of 
mechanical release of the brakes may be 
heard, indicating the imminent movement of 
the vehicle.
Operating fault
If a malfunction of the system 
occurs, this warning lamp comes 
on accompanied by an audible 
signal and confirmed by a message 
in the screen. Have the system checked by at 
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. Hill start assist is deactivated in the following 
situations:
-
 
when the clutch pedal is released,
-
 
when the parking brake is applied,
-
 
when the engine is switched of
 f,
-
 
when the engine stalls.

continuous operation of the air conditioning.
The switch indicator lamp stays on.
reactivation
Press the "A - OFF" switch again.
The system is active again; the switch 
indicator lamp going off and a message 
in the instrument panel screen confirm 
reactivation.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the system, 
the Stop & Start system is deactivated 
and this warning lamp comes on, 
accompanied by a message in the 
instrument panel screen.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
In the event of an operating fault with STOP 
mode, it is possible to restart the engine by 
depressing the clutch pedal fully and putting 
the gear lever into neutral.
Maintenance
Before working under the bonnet, you 
must switch off the ignition with the 
key to avoid any risk of injury resulting from 
automatic operation of START mode.
This system requires a specific battery 
with a special specification and technology 
(reference numbers available from a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by 
CITROËN
  introduces the risk of malfunction 
of the system.
The Stop & Start system makes use 
of advanced technology. Specialist 
knowledge is needed for any work on the 
system, which can only be assured by 
CITROËN dealers. Refer to the "Quick help - Flat battery" 
section.

Observe the driving regulations and remain 
vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep 
your hands on the wheel so that you are 
ready to react at any time to any eventuality.
On a long journey, a break every two hours 
is strongly recommended.
In difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate 
the need to brake and increase the distance 
from other vehicles.
driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on 
flooded roads, as this could cause serious 
damage to the engine or gearbox, as well as 
to the electrical systems of your vehicle. If you are obliged to drive through water:
-
 
check that the depth of water does not
  
exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves 
that might be generated by other users,
-  
deactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
  
drive as slowly as possible without
  
stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 
6   mph (10 km/h),
-
 
do not stop and do not switch of
 f the 
engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as 
circumstances allow, make several light 
brake applications to dry the brake discs and 
pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, 
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied - 
Risk of overheating and damage to the  
braking system!
Do not park or run the engine when 
stationary in areas where inflammable 
substances and materials (dry grass, dead 
leaves...) might come into contact with the 
hot exhaust system - Risk of fire!
Never leave a vehicle unsupervised with 
the engine running. If you have to leave 
your vehicle with the engine running, apply 
the parking brake and put the gearbox into 
neutral.
