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
d
river.
Operation
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
-
i
mmediately, when being overtaken,
-
a
fter a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly. F
O
n switching 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.
driving

125
F To deactivate the system, press this button again; the warning lamp goes off.
The state of the system remains in memory on
switching off the ignition. In the event of a fault, the warning lamp in the
button flashes then goes off.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather
conditions (rain, hail...).
In particular, driving on a wet sur face
or moving from a dry area to a wet area
can cause false alerts (for example, the
presence of a fog of water droplets in
the blind spot angle is interpreted as a
vehicle).
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
in the door mirrors or the detection
zones on the front and rear bumpers
with adhesive labels or other objects;
they may hamper the correct operation
of the system.
The system is automatically deactivated
when towing with a towbar approved by
CITROËN.

Be particularly aware of children when operating the windows.
If one of the doors or the boot is not fully closed, locking does not take place. When the vehicle is locked, if it is unlocked inadvertently, it will automatically lock itself again after about thirty seconds unless a door is opened. If the alarm was previously activated, it will not be reactivated automatically.
Locking is confirmed by fixed illumination of the direction indicators for approximately two seconds. Depending on version, the door mirrors fold at the same time.
