volumetric and anti-tilt monitoring
Triggering of the alarm
This is indicated by sounding of the siren
and flashing of the direction indicators for
thirty
s
econds.
The monitoring functions remain active until
the alarm has been triggered eleven times in
succession.
F
Pr

ess the unlocking button on
the remote control or unlock the
vehicle using the Keyless Entry
and Starting system to deactivate
the exterior perimeter monitoring.
F
Pr

ess the locking button on the
remote control or lock the vehicle
using the Keyless Entry and
Starting system to activate all the
monitoring functions.
The indicator lamp in the button
again flashes once per second. When the vehicle is unlocked using
the remote control or unlocked
using the Keyless Entry and Starting
system, rapid flashing of the indicator
lamp in the button informs you that the alarm
was triggered during your absence. When
the ignition is switched on, this flashing stops
immediately.
Failure of the remote control
In this case, carry out the operations below to
deactivate the monitoring functions:
F
Un

lock the vehicle using the key (integral
with the remote control) in the driver's door
lock.
F
Op

en the door; the alarm is triggered.
F
Sw

itch on the ignition; the alarm stops. The
indicator lamp in the button goes off.
Locking the vehicle without
activating the alarm
F Lock or deadlock the vehicle using the key
( integral with the remote control) in the
driver's door lock.
Operating fault
When the ignition is switched on, fixed
illumination of the indicator lamp in the button
indicates a fault in the system.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
* Depending on the country of sale.
Automatic activation*
2 minutes after the last door or the boot is
closed, the system is activated automatically.

To a

void triggering the alarm on entering
the vehicle, first press the unlocking button
on the remote control or unlock the vehicle
using the Keyless Entry and Starting
system.
Access

Direction indicators
F Lower the lighting control stalk fully when
moving to the left.
F
Ra

ise the lighting control stalk fully when
moving to the right.Three flashes
Move the stalk briefly upwards or downwards,
without going beyond the point of resistance;
the corresponding direction indicators will flash
3 times.
If you forget to cancel the direction
indicators for more than twenty
seconds, the volume of the audible
signal will increase if the speed is above
40 mph (60 km/h).
Hazard warning lamps
Press the button, the direction indicators flash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
Automatic operation
of hazard warning lamps
When braking in an emergency, depending on
the rate of deceleration, as well as when the
ABS regulation is invoked or in the event of an
impact, the hazard warning lamps come on
automatically.
They switch off automatically the first time you
accelerate.
F
Yo

u can also switch them off by pressing
the button.
This function can be used at any speed,
but it is particularly useful for changing
lane on fast roads.
On versions fitted with LED direction indicators,
the line of LEDs is illuminated sequentially.
The brightness of the daytime runnning lamps
is reduced during sequential operation of the
direction indicators.

control,

Electronic stability control (ESC)
definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBF
d)
These systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contribute towards improved control in
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution system
manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking
assistance
In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly and therefore reduce the stopping
distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a
reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
increase in the effectiveness of the braking.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
This system (also known as Traction Control)
optimises traction in order to avoid wheel
slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
dynamic stability control
(dSc)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that required by the
driver, this system monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws
of physics.

Intelligent traction control
system ("Snow motion")Operation
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBF
d)
In emergency braking, press
very firmly without releasing the
pressure. When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
make sure that these are approved for
your vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.
When this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message, it indicates that there
is a fault with the ABS, which could
cause loss of control of the vehicle
when braking.
When this warning lamp comes on,
coupled with the STOP
warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal and a
message, it indicates that there is a fault
with the electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD), which could cause loss of control
of the vehicle when braking.
The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on sur faces offering low
levels of adhesion.
Depending on version, your vehicle has a
system to help driving on snow: intelligent
traction control
.
This system detects situations of difficult
sur face adhesion that could make it difficult to
move off or make progress on deep fresh snow
or compacted snow.
In these situations, the intelligent traction
control limits the amount of wheel slip to
provide the best traction and trajectory control
for your vehicle.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
