+ "Take
back control of the
v
ehicle"The
driver should take control of the vehicle by accelerating or
b
raking, depending on the circumstances (sharp curve).
+ "Take
back control of the
v
ehicle"The
system cannot manage the critical situation alone
(
emergency braking of the target vehicle, rapid insertion of
a
nother vehicle between the two vehicles).
The driver must immediately take back control of the
vehicle.
or "Activation not possible,
conditions unsuitable"
The system refuses to activate the cruise control (speed outside
the
operating range, winding road).
or according
to the inter-vehicle
d
istance selected and the actual
distance
from the target vehicle"Cruise control paused"
(for a few seconds)
The
system has brought the vehicle to a complete stop and is
h
olding it immobilised.
The
driver should accelerate to move off again.
The cruise control remains paused until the driver reactivates it
with
the speed of the vehicle above 18 mph (30 km/h).

Limits of operation
The system cannot exceed the limits of the laws of physics.
It is recommended that the system be
deactivated when the "space-saver" spare
wheel
is in use.
The system should not be activated when
towing
a trailer.
In certain critical situations, the system will
encourage
the driver to immediately take back
c
ontrol:
-
i
f the vehicle in front slows down too much
or too suddenly, and the driver does not
brake,
-
i
f a vehicle comes between your vehicle
and
the vehicle in front. As
the radar's field of detection is quite narrow,
i
t is possible that the system may not detect:
-
v
ehicles of reduced width (motorcycles,
scooters...),
-
v
ehicles not running in the middle of the
lan
e,
-
v
ehicles entering a corner,
-
v
ehicles suddenly pulling out.The
cruise control does not take account of:
-
p
edestrians, cyclists, animals,
-
s
tationary vehicles (traffic jam, red light,
b
reakdown...),
-
v
ehicles crossing a junction,
-
v
ehicles driving in the opposite direction.

Operating fault
As a safety measure, do not use the system if
the brake lamps are faulty.
Do not use the system if the front bumper is
damaged. In the event of a fault with the cruise
control, you are alerted by the
illumination
of this warning lamp
a
nd the display of a message in the
in
strument panel, accompanied by an
audible
s
ignal.
The cruise control operates by day and at
night,
in
fog
or
moderate
rainfall.
However,
it
is
strongly
recommended
that
y
ou
always
keep
a
safe
distance
from
v
ehicles
ahead,
according
to
the
driving
c
onditions, the weather and the road
sur face.
Use the cruise control only where the
driving
conditions
allow
running
at
a
c
onstant speed and at an adequate safe
distance.
Do not use the cruise control in urban
areas,
heavy
traffic,
on
winding
or
steep
r
oads
or
on
slippery
or
flooded
sur faces.
In certain circumstances, it may not
be
possible
for
the
speed
setting
to
be
m
aintained
or
even
attained:
loaded
v
ehicle,
ascending
a
steep
hill,
... The
system
is
not
intended
for
driving
in
the
fo
llowing
s
ituations:
-
t
he front end of the vehicle has been
modified
(addition
of
driving
lamps),
-
d
riving
on
a
racing
circuit,
-
r
unning
on
a
rolling
road,
-
u
se
of
snow
chains
or
non-slip
covers.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
d
ealer or a qualified workshop.
The operation of the radar, located in
the front bumper, may be disturbed by
accumulations
of
grime
(dust,
mud...)
or
in
c
ertain
weather
conditions
(snow,
ice...).
The
message
"SYSTEM
INACTIVE:
V
isibility
reduced"
is
displayed
to
signal
that
t
he
system
has
been
put
into
standby.
Clean
the
front
bumper
regularly.
The use of mats not approved by CITROËN
may inter fere with the operation of the
cruise
control.
To
avoid
any
risk
of
jamming
the
pedals:
-
e
nsure that mats are secured correctly,
-
n
ever
fit
one
mat
on
top
of
another.
