Operation of the rear foglamps is inhibited with the tailgate open.
Opening
the tailgate when these lamps
a
re on causes them and their indicator
lamp
in the instrument panel to go off.
They
do not come back on
a
utomatically when the tailgate is
c
losed: they must be switched on again
u
sing the control stalk. In
good or rainy weather, by both day a
nd night, the front foglamps and the
r
ear foglamps are prohibited. In these
s
ituations, the power of their beams
may
dazzle other drivers. They should
o
nly be used in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, you should
switch
on the foglamps and dipped
b
eam headlamps manually, as the
sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light.
Do
not forget to switch off the front and
r
ear foglamps when they are no longer
n
ecessary.Switching off the lighting
when switching off the ignition
When the ignition is switched off, all of the lamps switch off immediately, except for the d
ipped beam headlamps if automatic guide-
me-home
lighting is activated.
Switching on the lighting when
switching on the ignition
To reactivate the lighting control stalk, turn the ring A to position "0"
- lighting off, then t
o the position of your choice.
When the driver's door is opened, a temporary audible signal warns you that
t
he vehicle's lighting is on.
They switch off automatically after a period
which depends on the state of charge of the b
attery (entry to energy economy mode).

Intelligent traction control
system ("Snow motion")
When this warning lamp comes on, coupled with the STOP and ABS warning
l
amps, accompanied by an audible signal
a
nd a message, it indicates that there
i
s a fault with the electronic brake force
di
stribution
(
EBFD).
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
The fixed illumination of this warning lamp indicates that there is a fault
with
the ABS. Depending
on version, your vehicle has a s
ystem to help driving on snow: intelligent
traction control.
This system detects situations of difficult
sur face
adhesion that could make it difficult to
m
ove off or make progress on deep fresh snow
o
r compacted snow.
In these situations, the intelligent traction
control limits the amount of wheel slip to
provide
the best traction and trajectory control
f
or your vehicle.
The
use of snow tyres is strongly
r
ecommended on sur faces offering low levels
o
f adhesion.
When
changing wheels (tyres and
r
ims), ensure that these are approved
for
your vehicle.
Normal
operation of the ABS may make
i
tself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
ped
al.
In emergency braking, press ver y
firmly and maintain this pressure.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In
both
cases, have the system checked by a
C
ITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as
s
oon
as
possible.
The
vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
c
arefully
at moderate speed.

For more information on snow chains, contact a
CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Use
only chains designed to be fitted the type

Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.
T he snow chains must be fitted only
to
the front wheels. They must never
b
e fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels.
Advice on installation
F If you have to fit the chains during a j
ourney, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
o
n the side of the road.
F
A

w
heel chocks to prevent movement of your

rovided by the manufacturer.
F
M
ove off gently and drive for a few
m
oments, without exceeding 30 mph
(
50 km/h).
F
S
top your vehicle and check that the snow
c
hains are correctly tightened.
Take
account
of
the
legislation
in
force
i
n your country on the use of snow
chains
and
the
maximum
running
speed
a
uthorised. Avoid
driving with snow chains on roads
t
hat have been cleared of snow, to
avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and
t
he road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted
w
ith alloy wheels, check that no part of
t
he chain or its fixings is in contact with
t
he wheel rim.
It
is
strongly
recommended
that
before

you
practise
fitting
the

for approximately five minutes,
-
f
or more than ten minutes, to use the

the corresponding section.
Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain functions according to the level of charge
r
emaining in the battery.
When
the vehicle is being driven, the load

Switching to economy
mode
A message appears in the instrument panel s
creen indicating that the vehicle has switched
t
o economy mode and the active functions are
put
on standby.
If
a telephone call is being made at this time, it
w
ill be maintained for around 10 minutes with
the Bluetooth hands-free system of your audio
system. System which manages the duration of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of
c
harge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio and telematics
s
ystem, windscreen wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum
c
ombined duration of about forty minutes.
