CRUISE CONTROL
"This is the speed at which the driver wishes
to drive".
This aid to driving in free-flowing traffic
enables the vehicle to maintain the speed
programmed by the driver, unless a steep
gradient makes this impossible. In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be greater
than 25 mph (40 km/h) with at least 4th gear
engaged on the manual gearbox. This cruise control shows the status of the
system in the instrument panel screen and
displays the programmed speed:
Function selected,
displaying of the "Cruise
Control" indicator light.
Function deactivated,
OFF (example at
107 km/h).
Function activated
(example at 107 km/h).
Vehicle speed above
(e.g. 118 km/h),
the programmed speed
is displayed flashing.
Operating fault detected,
OFF - the dashes flash.

Selecting the function
- Turn the ring fully upwards. The cruise control is selected but is not yet active
and no speed has been programmed.
The indicator comes on in the instrument
panel
First activation / programming a speed
- Reach the chosen speed by pressing the accelerator.
- Move the switch up (+) or down (-) to memorise the speed. A message
appears in the instrument panel screen
to confirm the operation.
The vehicle will maintain this speed setting.
Temporarily exceeding the speed setting
It is possible to accelerate and drive
momentarily at a speed greater than the
programmed speed. The value programmed
flashes.
When the accelerator pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the programmed speed.
Reactivation
- Following deactivation of the cruise control, press this button. A message
appears in the instrument panel screen
to confirm the reactivation.
Your vehicle will return to the last

SPEED LIMITER
"This is the selected speed which the driver
does not wish to exceed".
This selection 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. However, pressing the pedal beyond this
point of resistance to the floor permits
exceeding of the programmed speed. To
resume use of the limiter, simply reduce
the pressure on the accelerator pedal
gradually and return to a speed below that
programmed.
The operating actions may be carried out
when stationary, with the engine running,
or with the vehicle moving.
This speed limiter shows the status of the
system and the programmed speed in the
instrument panel screen:
System selected,
display of the "Speed
Limiter" indicator.
System deactivated,
last programmed speed - OFF
(example at 65 mph
(107 km/h)).
System activated

(107 km/h)).
Vehicle speed above
(example 70 mph
(118 km/h))

TECHNOLOGY on BOARD
Parking sensors
AUDIBLE REAR PARKING SENSORS
If fitted on your vehicle, the system consists
of four proximity sensors, installed in the
rear bumper.
They detect any obstacle: person, vehicle,
tree, fence, behind the vehicle during the
manoeuvre.
However, objects the size or thickness of
which are detected at the beginning of the
manoeuvre will no longer be detected at the
end of the manoeuvre: blind spots between
and below the sensors. Examples: stake,
roadworks cone or pavement post.
The rear parking sensor system may be
coupled with a reversing camera. Operation
Engage reverse gear with the gear lever.
The proximity information is indicated by an
audible signal of increasing frequency 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.
The system cannot, in any circumstances,
take the place of the vigilance and
responsibility of the driver.
Switching off
Come our of reverse gear into neutral.
Operating fault
If this 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.

Loading assistance
PNEUMATIC SUSPENSION
If your vehicle is fitted with pneumatic
suspension, you can adjust the height of
the rear of the vehicle to make loading and
unloading easier.
The control panel is located on the
dashboard.
There is a nominal level as well as 6 height
adjustment levels, raising (from +1 to +3) or
lowering (from -1 to -3). Each level reached
is indicated on the instrument panel screen.
Manual adjustment of the loading height
Raise: upwards adjustment of the load
floor Make a quick press on the control
to select the next level up. Each
press (LED on) raises the floor by
one level: +1 to +3.
A long press selects the highest level (+3). Lower: downwards adjustment of
the load floor
Make a quick press on the control
to select the next level down.
Each press (LED on) lowers the
floor by one level: -1 to -3.
A long press selects the lowest level (-3).

Driving safely
SAFETY
PARKING BRAKE HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
Press this button, the direction indicators
flash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
The hazard warning lamps should only be
used in dangerous situations, when stopping
in an emergency or when driving in unusual
conditions. Applying
Pull the parking brake lever up to immobilise
your vehicle.
Check that the parking brake is applied
firmly before leaving the vehicle. Pull on the parking brake lever,
only
with the vehicle stationary .
Releasing
Pull the lever and press the button to lower
the parking brake lever. In the exceptional case of use of the
parking brake when the vehicle is
moving, apply the brake by pulling gently
to avoid locking the rear wheels (risk of
skidding).
If the parking brake is still on or has not
been released properly, this is indicated
by this warning lamp which comes on on
the instrument panel.
When parking on a slope, direct your wheels towards
the pavement and pull the parking brake lever up.
There is no advantage in engaging a gear after
parking the vehicle, particularly if the vehicle is loaded.
