Operating fault
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall.
All of the instrument panel warning lamps
come on.
It is then necessary to switch off the ignition
and start the engine again using the "S TA R T/
STOP " button.
In the event of a fault with the system, the
button in the "E
cO OF
F" switch flashes for a
few moments, then remains on.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. The Stop & Start system requires a
12
V b
attery of specific technology and
specification.
All work on this type of battery must be
carried out only by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
For more information on the 12 V
battery, refer to the corresponding
section.

Lane departure warning system
System which, using a camera which
recognises solid or broken lines, detects the
involuntary crossing of longitudinal traffic lane
markings on the ground.
To provide safe driving, the camera analyses
the image then, if the driver's attention drops,
triggers a warning if the vehicle drifts over
a lane marking (speed higher than 50 mph
(80
k
m/h)).
This system is particularly useful on motor ways
and main roads.
Activation
F When switching on the ignition
o r with the engine running, press
this button to activate the system;
the indicator lamp comes on.
The lane departure warning system
cannot, in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
deactivation
You are warned by the vibration of the driver's
seat cushion:
-
on t
he right-hand side, if the marking on
the ground has been crossed on the right,
-
on t
he left-hand side, if the marking on the
ground has been crossed on the left.
No warning is transmitted while the direction
indicator is active and for approximately
20
s
econds after the direction indicator is
switched off.
detection - Alert O perating fault
The detection may be impeded:
- if t
he markings on the ground are
worn,
-
if t
here is little contrast between the
markings on the ground and the
road sur face,
-
if t
he windscreen is dirty,
-
in
certain severe weather conditions:
fog, heavy rain, snow, bright sunlight
or direct exposure to the sun (low
sun, leaving a tunnel, ...) and shade.
F
Pr
ess this button again, the
indicator lamp goes off. In the event of a fault, the indicator lamp in the
button flashes.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The status of the system remains in the
memory when the ignition is switched off. It is necessary to observe the driving
regulations and to take a break every
two hours.

Blind spot sensors
This driving assistance system warns the driver
of the presence of another vehicle in the blind
spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from
the driver's field of vision), as soon as this
presents a potential danger.This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a
substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's
responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to assess the distances and relative speeds of
other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.
The blind spot sensor system can never replace the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
Operation
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
-
im
mediately, when being overtaken,
-
af
ter a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly. F
On s
witching on the ignition, or engine
running, press this button to activate the
function; the warning lamp comes on.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.

Head-up display
System which projects information onto a
transparent blade in the driver's field of vision so
that they do not have to take their eyes off the road.

F With the engine running, press button 1. The
activated/deactivated status when the engine was
switched off is retained when the engine is switched
on again.
The blade retracts automatically 3 seconds after switching
off the engine except in STOP mode of Stop & Start.
Activation / dea ctivation
F With the engine running, adjust the
b
rightness of the information using
button
3 :
- to
wards the rear to increase the
brightness,
-
to
wards the front to decrease the
brightness.
Brightness adjustment
We recommend that adjustments are
only made using these buttons when
the vehicle is stationary.
When stationary or while driving, no
objects should be placed around the
transparent blade (or on its cover) to
avoid blocking deployment of the blade
and preventing its correct operation.
In certain extreme weather conditions
(rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, ...)
the head-up display may not be legible
or may suffer temporary inter ference.
Some sunglasses may hamper reading
of the information.
To clean the transparent blade, use a
clean, soft cloth (such as a spectacles
cloth or microfibre cloth). Do not use
a dry or abrasive cloth or detergent or
solvent products as these could scratch
the blade or damage the anti-reflection
coating.
Height adjustment
F With the engine running, adjust the display
t o the required height using button 2 :
-
to
wards the rear to move the display up,
-
to
wards the front to move the display
down.
