cancelling the programmed
reference speed
When the vehicle becomes stationary, after switching of f the ignition, the
system
no longer memorises a speed.
There
are
two
methods
of
memorising
a
speed
higher
than
the
previous
one:
Without
using
the
accelerator:
-
press the
SE
t
+
button.a brief press increases the speed by
1
mph
(km/h).
A
maintained
press
increases
the
speed
in
steps
of
5
mph
(km/h).
Using
the
accelerator:
-
exceed
the
memorised
speed
until
the
speed
required
is
reached,
-
press the
SE
t
+ or SE
t
-
button.
To
memorise
a
speed
lower
than
the
previous
one:
-
press the
SE
t
-
button.
a brief press decreases the speed by
1
mph
(km/h).
A
maintained
press
decreases
the
speed
in
steps
of
5
mph
(km/h). -
Place the dial in position
0 or
switch off the ignition to switch
everything off.
Good practice
When changing the programmed reference speed by means of a
maintained
press, pay attention as
the speed can increase or decrease
rapidly
.
d
o not use the cruise control on
slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
In the event of a steep slope, the cruise
control
cannot prevent the vehicle from
exceeding
the programmed speed.
In any event, the cruise control cannot
replace the need to observe the speed
limits
and the need for vigilance on the
part
of the driver.
It is advisable to leave your feet near
the
pedals.
To
avoid any jamming under the
pedals:
-
ensure
that the mat and its fixings
on
the floor are positioned correctly,
-
never
place one mat on top of
another
.

However, pressing the pedal beyond
this point of resistance to the floor
allows
the programmed speed to be
exceeded.
T
o resume use of the limiter,
simply
reduce the pressure on the
accelerator pedal gradually and return
to
a speed below that programmed.
t
he operating actions may be
carried out when stationary, with the
engine running, or with the vehicle
moving. This
speed limiter shows the function

and
displays the programmed speed:

This

is
made
with
the
engine
running while stationary or with the
vehicle
moving.
The
minimum
speed
which
can
be
programmed
is
20
mph
(30
km/h).
The speed of the vehicle responds
to the pressure of the driver's foot as
far as the accelerator pedal point of
resistance which indicates that the
programmed
speed
has
been
reached.

Selecting the function
- Place the switch in the LIMI t
position. The limiter is selected
but
is not yet active.
The
screen
indicates
the last programmed
speed.
Programming a speed
A speed can be programmed without activating the
limiter but with the engine running.
To
memorise a speed higher than the previous
one:
- press the SE t + button.
A
brief press increases the speed by 1 mph
(km/h).
A
maintained press increases the speed in
steps
of 5 mph (km/h).
To
memorise a speed lower than the previous
one:
- press the SE t - button.
A
brief press decreases the speed by 1 mph
(km/h).
A
maintained press decreases the speed in
steps
of 5 mph (km/h).
Activation / deactivation
Pressing this button once activates
the limiter, pressing the button again
deactivates it
(OFF).

Exceeding the programmed
speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal in order
to exceed the programmed speed
will have no ef
fect unless you press
the pedal firmly beyond the point of
resistance.
The
limiter is deactivated temporarily
and
the programmed speed flashes
accompanied
by an audible signal.
To
return to the limiter function, reduce
your
speed to below the programmed
speed.
Switching the function off
- Place the switch in position 0 or
switch off the ignition to switch the
system
off.
The
last programmed speed remains in
the
memory.
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then replaced by three dashes.
Contact a CITR
o Ë n dealer or a
qualified
workshop to have the system
checked.
Good practice
Flashing of the speed
The speed flashes:
-
following forcing of the accelerator
point of resistance,
-
when
the limiter cannot prevent an
increase in the vehicle speed due
to
the profile of the road or on a
steep descent,
-
in
the event of sharp acceleration. In
any event, the speed limiter cannot
replace the need to observe speed
limits,
nor can it replace the need for
vigilance
on the part of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profile
of the road and sharp acceleration
and
stay in complete control of your vehicle.
T
o avoid any jamming under the
pedals:
-
ensure
that the mat and its fixings
on
the floor are positioned correctly,
-
never
place one mat on top of
another

Good practice
Sit in a normal upright position.
W ear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
d
o not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child,
pet,
object...).
This
could hinder the
operation
of the airbags or injure the
occupants.
a
fter an accident or if the vehicle has
been
stolen or broken into, have the
airbag
systems checked.
All
work on the airbag system is strictly
forbidden unless it is carried out by
qualified
personnel at a CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions
mentioned
are observed, a risk of
injury
or of minor burns to the head,
chest
or arms when an airbag is
deployed
cannot be ruled out. In fact,
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
Only
put recommended covers on
the
seats.
These
will not hinder
inflation
of the lateral airbags. Contact
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Do
not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs.
This
could cause injury to the
chest
or arms when the lateral airbag
inflates.
d
o not sit with the upper part of the
body any nearer to the door than
necessary.
Front airbags
d
o not drive holding the steering wheel
by
its spokes or resting your hands on
the
centre part of the wheel.
d
o not allow passengers to place
their
feet on the dashboard, they risk
serious
injury if the airbag is deployed.
Smoke
as little as possible 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.
Airbags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
This
equipment
only
operates
once.
If
a
second
impact
occurs
(during
the
same
or
a
subsequent
accident),
the
airbag
will
not
operate.
The
deployment
of
an
airbag
or
airbags
is
accompanied
by
a
slight
discharge
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
some
irritation.
The
noise
of
the
detonation
may
result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time. The
passenger's
front
airbag
must
be deactivated if a child seat is
installed
facing
rearward.

Front airbags
The front airbags are fitted in the centre of the steering wheel for the
driver and in the dashboard for the
front passenger.
d
eployment
They are deployed, except the
passenger's front airbag if it has been
deactivated, in the event of a serious
front
impact applied to all or part of the
front
impact zone A in the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal
plane
directed from the front towards
the
rear of the vehicle.
The
front airbag inflates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
dashboard to cushion their forward
movement.
d
eactivationo
nly the passenger's front airbag can
be deactivated:
-
with the ignition switched off
,
insert
the key into the passenger's
front airbag deactivation switch,
-
turn it to the of
f "OFF" position,
-
then
remove the key, keeping the
switch
in the new position.
The passenger's front
airbag
warning lamp in the
instrument
panel is on while
the
airbag is deactivated.If
the two airbag warning lamps
are on continuously
, do not install
a rear-facing child seat, contact
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Front airbag fault
T
o ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to deactivate the
passenger's front airbag when you
install a rear-facing child seat on the
front
passenger seat. Otherwise, the
child
would
risk
being
kille
d
or
seriously
injured
if the airbag were to inflate.
r
eactivation
In the "OFF" position, the passenger's
front airbag will not be deployed in the
event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
turn the airbag switch to the
"O n "
position to re-activate the passenger's
front airbag and so ensure the safety
of your passenger in the event of an
impact.
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an
audible
signal and a message
in the screen, contact a
CITR
o Ë n dealer or a
qualified
workshop to have
the
system checked.
