No
vehicle detected:
t

Detection
of a vehicle, at the limit of the range of the radar:
t
he system operates as a standard cruise control.
"SPEED ADJUSTED" Detection
of a vehicle that is too close or running at a speed lower than your
v
ehicle's cruise speed setting.
The
system uses engine braking to slow your vehicle and then hold it at the speed of
t
he vehicle in front so as to maintain the programmed inter-vehicle time.
The
regulation range is limited to a maximum difference of 20 mph (30 km/h)
b
etween the speed setting and the speed of the vehicle ahead.
"SPEED ADJUSTED" When
the adjusted speed reaches the control limit (speed setting - 20 mph
(
30 km/h)), the adjusted speed flashes together with the speed setting, to signal that
a
utomatic deactivation of the system is imminent.
"Cruise control
paused" If
the system exceeds the limit of speed adjustment possible by the system and
i
n the absence of any reaction by the driver (operation of the direction indicator,
change
of lane, reduction of the speed of the vehicle), the system is automatically
pa
used.
The
display of the deactivation message is accompanied by an audible signal.

In the event of a fault with the system, you are
alerted
by the illumination of these warning

In the event of a fault, this warning lamp flashes for a few moments in
the instrument panel, accompanied
by
a message.
Operating fault
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified w orkshop. The system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather
conditions
(rain, hail...).
In particular, driving on a wet sur face o
r moving from a dry area to a wet area c
an cause false alerts (for example, the
p
resence of a fog of water droplets in
t
he blind spot angle is interpreted as a
v
ehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that
the sensors are not covered by mud, ice
or
snow.
Take
care not to cover the warning zone
i
n the door mirrors or the detection
zones on the front and rear bumpers
with
adhesive labels or other objects;
t
hey may hamper the correct operation
of
the system.
High pressure jet wash
When
washing your vehicle, direct the

addition to the fixed warning lamp in the door
m
irror on the side in question, a correction of
trajectory will be felt if you cross a lane marking w
ith the direction indicators on, to help you
avoid a collision.
Conditions for operation
The following systems must be activated:
- b lind spot monitoring,
-
