Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...). The engine   restarts   automatically   -   START   mode   -   as   soon   as   you   want   to   move   off.   The   restart   takes   place   instantly,   quickly   and   silently.
Operation
Going into engine STOP
mode
The "ECO" warning   lamp   comes   on   in   the  i
nstrument   panel   and   the   engine   goes   into  
s

tandby
 a
utomatically:
-
 
w
ith a manual gearbox ,
  at   speeds   below  
1

2   mph   (20   km/h),   or   vehicle   stationary  
(

with   PureTech   130,   THP   165   and   BlueHDi  
1

00,   115   and   120   versions),   when   you  
p

lace   the   gear   lever   in   neutral,   and   you  
r

elease   the   clutch   pedal,
-
 
w
ith an ETG6 electronic gearbox , at
speeds
  below   5   mph   (8   km/h),   when   you  
p

ress   the   brake   pedal   or   place   the   gear  
s

elector lever in position N ,
-
 
w
ith an automatic gearbox , with the
vehicle stationary, when you press the
brake
  pedal   or   place   the   gear   selector   lever  
i

n position N . Never
  refuel   with   the   engine   in   STOP  
m

ode;   you   must   switch   off   the   ignition  
w

ith   the   START/STOP   button.
For
  your   comfort,   during   parking  
m

anoeuvres,   STOP   mode   is   not  
a

vailable   for   a   few   seconds   after  
c

oming   out   of   reverse   gear.
STOP
  mode   does   not   affect   the  
f

unctionality of the vehicle, such as for
example,
  braking,   power   steering...
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:
-  t he   driver's   door   is   open,
-
 
t
he   driver's   seat   belt   is   not   fastened,
-
 
t
he   vehicle   has   not   exceeded   6   mph  
(

10 km/h)   since   the   last   engine   start   using  
t

he   START/STOP   button,
-
 
t
he   electric   parking   brake   is   applied   or  
be

ing
 a
pplied,
-
 
t
he   engine   is   needed   to   maintain   a  
c

omfortable   temperature   in   the   passenger  
c

ompartment,

-
 
s
ome   special   conditions   (battery   charge,  
e

ngine   temperature,   braking   assistance,  
a

mbient   temperature...)   where   the   engine   is  
n

eeded   to   assure   control   of   a   system.
In this case, the "ECO"
 

warning   lamp  
f

lashes   for   a   few   seconds   then   goes

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking,   detecting   a   parking   space   then  
c

ontrolling   the   steering   to   park   in   the   space.
It
  controls   the   steering   while   the   driver  
m

anages   the   accelerator,   brakes,   gears   and  
c

lutch   (manual   gearbox).   During   phases   of  
e

ntry   into   and   exit   from   a   parking   space,   the  
s

ystem   provides   visual   and   audible   information  
t

o   the   driver   in   order   to   make   the   manoeuvres  
s

afe.   It   may   be   necessary   to   move   for wards  
a

nd   backwards   more   than   once. During
  a   manoeuvre   the   steering   wheel  
t

urns   quickly:   do   not   hold   the   steering  
w

heel,   do   not   place   your   hand   between  
t

he   spokes   of   the   steering   wheel   and  
t

ake   care   with   loose   and   bulky   clothing,  
s

carves,   handbags...   There   is   a   risk   of  
in

jury.
When
  Park   Assist   is   activated,   it  
p

revents   a   change   to   STOP   mode   of  
S

top   &   Start.   In   STOP   mode,   activation  
o

f   Park   Assist   restarts   the   engine.
The
  Park   Assist   system   cannot   in   any  
c

ircumstances   replace   the   need   for  
v

igilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The
  driver   must   remain   in   control  
o

f   their   vehicle   ensuring   that   the  
s

pace   remains   clear   throughout   the  
m

anoeuvre.
In
  some   circumstances,   the   sensors  
m

ay   not   detect   small   obstacles   located  
i

n   their   blind   spots.
The
  driver   can   take   control   at   any   time   by  
g

ripping   the   steering   wheel. The
  Park   Assist   system   provides   assistance   for  t
he   following   manoeuvres:
A.
 e

ntry   into   a   parallel   parking   space
B.
 e

xit   from   a   parallel   parking   space

kingThe
  Park   Assist   system   takes   control  
o

f   the   power   steering   for   a   maximum  
o

f   4   manoeuvre   cycles.   The   function  
i

s   deactivated   after   these   4   cycles.  
I

f   you   think   that   your   vehicle   is   not  
p

ositioned   correctly,   you   should   then  
t

ake   control   of   the   steering   to   carry   out  
t

he   manoeuvre.
The

o

bstacle.
The
  operation   indicator   lamp   goes   off   in   the  
i

nstrument   panel   and   a   message   is   displayed  
a

ccompanied   by   an   audible   signal.
The
  driver   should   then   take   back   control   of   the  
v

ehicle's
 s
teering.
Deactivation
The system is switched off automatically:
-  w hen   towing   a   trailer,
-
 
i
f   the   driver's   door   is   opened,
-
 
i
f   the   speed   of   the   vehicle   is   above   42   mph  
(

70   km/h).
To
  switch   the   system   of   for   a   prolonged   period,  
c

ontact   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop. In
  the   event   of   a   fault,   the   symbol   for  
t

he   button   changes   to   alert   mode   and  
t

he   warning   lamp   flashes   for   a   few  
m

oments   then   goes   off.
Operating faults
In the event of a fault with the
power  steering,   this   warning   lamp  
f

lashes   in   the   instrument   panel,  
a

ccompanied   by   a   message.
Contact
 
a
 
CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop.
Switching off
If the lateral distance between your vehicle a nd   the   space   is   too   great,   the   system   may n

ot   be   able   to   measure   the   space.
Anything
  projecting   beyond   the   envelope
 o

f   the   vehicle   (long   or   wide   load)   is   not
 t

aken   into   account   by   the   Park   Assist
 s

ystem   during   a   manoeuvre.
In
  bad   weather   or   in   winter,   ensure   that  
t

he   sensors   are   not   covered   by   road  
d

irt,   ice   or   snow.
In
  the   event   of   a   fault,   have   the   system  
c

hecked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q

ualified
 w
orkshop.
If
 
the
 
system
 
is
 
deactivated
 
during
 
a
 
m

anoeuvre,
 
the
 
drive
 
should
 
reactivate
 
i

t
 
to
 
repeat
 
the
 
measurement. The
 
indicator
 
lamp
 
for
 
the
 
function
 
f

lashes
 
for
 
a
 
few
 
seconds.
If
 
the
