Access

With the ignition on or the engine running, to
release the parking brake, press the brake
pedal , pull then release control lever A .
The full release of the parking brake is
confirmed by:
Manual release
- the braking warning lamp and the P warning lamp in the control
lever A going off,
-

d
isplay of the message "Parking
brake off ".
If you pull the control lever A without pressing
the brake pedal, the parking brake will not
be released and a message appears in the
instrument panel.
Before leaving the vehicle, check that
parking brake warning lamps in the
instrument panel and the control lever A
are on fixed, not flashing.
With the vehicle stationary, to apply the parking
brake whether the engine is running or off, pull

control lever A .
Manual application
The application of the parking brake is
confirmed by:
-

illumination of the braking warning
lamp and of the P warning lamp in
the control lever A ,
- display of the message "Parking
brake on".
With the engine running, when the driver's
door is opened there is an audible signal and a
message is displayed if the parking brake has
not been applied - unless the selector lever is
in position P (Park) in the case of an automatic
gearbox. Maximum application is essential:
-
i n the case of a vehicle towing a caravan
or a trailer, if the automatic functions are
activated but you are applying the parking
brake manually,
-

w
hen the slope you are parked on may
vary (e.g. on a ferry, on a lorry, during
towing).
If necessary, you can make a maximum
application
of the parking brake. It is obtained
by means of a long pull on control lever A,
until you see the message "Parking brake
applied fully" and an audible signal is heard.
In the case of towing, a loaded vehicle
or parking on a gradient, make a
maximum application of the parking
brake then turn the front wheels
towards the pavement and engage a
gear when you park.
After a maximum application, the
release time will be longer.

Moving off
When the engine is running at idle,
with the brakes released, if position R ,
d

or M is selected, the vehicle moves
even without the accelerator being
pressed.
Never leave children unsupervised in
the vehicle when the engine is running.
When carrying out maintenance with
the engine running, apply the parking
brake and select position P .
If the parking brake does not release
automatically, check that the front doors
are fully closed.
Never select position n while the
vehicle is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless the
vehicle is completely stationary.
Automatic operation
F Select position d for automatic changing
of the six gears.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any intervention on the part
of the driver. It continuously selects the most
suitable gear according to the style of driving,
the profile of the road and the load in the
vehicle.
For maximum acceleration without touching
the selector, press the accelerator pedal down
fully (kick down). The gearbox changes down
automatically or maintains the gear selected
until the maximum engine speed is reached.
On braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically to provide effective engine
braking.
If you release the accelerator sharply, the
gearbox will not change to a higher gear for
safety reasons.
If position

is engaged inadvertently
while driving, allow the engine to
return to idle then engage position

Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions).
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, put the selector
in position P or n to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle, unless it is programmed
to automatic mode.
If the selector is not in position P ,
when the driver's door is opened or
approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off, there is an
audible signal and a message appears.

the audible signal stops and the
message disappears.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen to indicate a
gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel
a substantial knock when changing from P
to R and from
n to R. This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. You risk damaging the gearbox:
-

i
f you press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time,
-

i
f you force the selector from
position P to another position when
the battery is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffic jam...), position
the gear selector at
n and apply the
parking brake, unless it is programmed
in automatic mode.

Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speedSwitching off
Operating fault
The use of mats not approved by
CITROËN may inter fere with the
operation of the speed limiter.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:
-

e
nsure that the mat is positioned
c o r r e c t l y,
-

d
o not fit one mat on top of another.
F

I

f you want to temporarily exceed the
programmed limit speed, press firmly


on
the accelerator pedal, going beyond the
point of resistance .
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the displayed programmed speed flashes. F

T

urn wheel 1 to the "0"
position: the
display of information on the speed limiter
disappears. Flashing dashes indicate a fault with the speed
limiter.
On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter
will not be able to prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
When the limit speed is exceeded but is not
due to action by the driver, there is an audible
signal to complete the alert.
Once the speed of the vehicle returns to
the programmed setting, the speed limiter
functions again: the display of the programmed
speed setting becomes steady again. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
