Parking sensors
Operation
The parking sensors system cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
This system detects any obstacle (person,
vehicle, tree, barrier...) located in front of or
behind the vehicle, however, it will not be able
to detect obstacles located immediately below
the bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks cone
or any other similar object may be detected at
the start of the manoeuvre but may no longer
be detected when the vehicle moves nearer
to it.
At the front and/or at the rear
This system is comprised of proximity sensors,
installed in the front and/or rear bumper.
Visual and audible assistance
The proximity information is indicated by:
-
an audible signal which becomes more rapid
as the vehicle approaches the obstacle,
- a diagram in the multifunction screen, with
blocks which move closer to the vehicle.
The obstacle is located in relation to the emission
of the audible signal by the speakers; front or rear
and right or left.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle is less than approximately thirty
centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous and/or the "Danger" symbol appears,
depending on the multifunction screen version.
In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered with
mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is
engaged, an audible signal (long beep)
indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
When the speed of the vehicle is below
about 6 mph (10 km/h), some sources
of noise (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic
drill, ...) may trigger the audible parking
sensor signals. The parking sensors are switched on
:
- by engaging reverse gear,
- at a speed below 6 mph (10 km/h) in
forward gear.
This is accompanied by an audible signal and
the display of the vehicle in the multifunction
screen.
The parking sensors are switched off :
- when you exit reverse gear,
- when the speed is higher than 6 mph
(10 km/h) in for ward gear,
- when the vehicle has been stationary for
more than three seconds in for ward gear.

Blanking cover
When towing, you must remove the blanking
cover in the front bumper as well as the bonnet
seal if fitted.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop for this.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling
on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
CITROËN towbar is used.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a long
mountain type of descent, the use of engine
braking is recommended.
