Detection
of a vehicle, at the limit of the range of the radar:
t
he system operates as a standard cruise control.
"SPEED ADJUSTED" Detection
of a vehicle that is too close or running at a speed lower than your
v
ehicle's cruise speed setting.
The
system uses engine braking to slow your vehicle and then hold it at the speed of
t
he vehicle in front so as to maintain the programmed inter-vehicle time.
The
regulation range is limited to a maximum difference of 20 mph (30 km/h)
b
etween the speed setting and the speed of the vehicle ahead.
"SPEED ADJUSTED" When
the adjusted speed reaches the control limit (speed setting - 20 mph
(
30 km/h)), the adjusted speed flashes together with the speed setting, to signal that
a
utomatic deactivation of the system is imminent.
"Cruise control
paused" If
the system exceeds the limit of speed adjustment possible by the system and
i
n the absence of any reaction by the driver (operation of the direction indicator,
c
hange of lane, reduction of the speed of the vehicle), the system is automatically
pa
used.
The
display of the deactivation message is accompanied by an audible signal.

Fatigue detection system
Depending on version, the "Driving time warning system" may be combined with the
"
Fatigue detection system".
Using
a camera placed at the top of the
w
indscreen, the system assesses the driver's
l
evel of vigilance by identifying variations in
t
rajectory compared to the lane markings.
This
system is particularly suited to fast roads
(
speed higher than 40 mph (65 km/h)).Once
the system considers that the behaviour o
f the vehicle suggests a certain level of fatigue
o
r inattention by the driver, it triggers the first
l
evel of alert.
The
driver is then alerted by the message
"Ta
k e c a r e !",
accompanied by an audible
s
ignal.
After
three first level alerts, the system triggers
a
new alert with the message "Take a break! ",
accompanied
by a more pronounced audible
s
ignal. In
certain driving conditions (poor road
s
ur face or strong winds), the system
m
ay give alerts independent of the
d
river's level of vigilance.
The following situations may inter fere
w
ith operation of the system or prevent
i
t working:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate lighting
o
f the roadway, falling snow, heavy
r
ain, dense fog, ...),
- d azzle (headlamps of an oncoming v
ehicle, low sun, reflections on

Electronic stability control (ESC) incorporating the following systems:

-

Electronic stability control (ESC)
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
a
nd contributes towards improved control on
c
orners, in particular on poor or slippery road
su
rfaces.
The
ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
em
ergency
b
raking.
The
EBFD manages the braking pressure
w
heel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking pressure more
q
uickly and therefore reduce the stopping
di
stance.
It
is triggered according to the speed at which
t
he brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a
r
eduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
i
ncrease in the effectiveness of the braking.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction Control) optimises traction in order to limit
w
heel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
w
heels and on the engine. It also improves
t
he directional stability of the vehicle on
a
cceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path followed by the vehicle and that required by
t
he driver, the DSC monitors each wheel and
a
utomatically acts on the brake of one or more
w
heels and on the engine to return the vehicle
t
o the required path, within the limits of the laws
o
f physics.

Intelligent traction control
system ("Snow motion")
When this warning lamp comes on, coupled with the STOP and ABS warning
l
amps, accompanied by an audible signal
a
nd a message, it indicates that there
i
s a fault with the electronic brake force
di
stribution
(
EBFD).
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
The fixed illumination of this warning lamp indicates that there is a fault
w
ith the ABS. Depending
on version, your vehicle has a s
ystem to help driving on snow: intelligent
traction control .
This
system detects situations of difficult
s
ur face grip that could make it difficult to move
o
ff or make progress on deep fresh snow or
c
ompacted snow.
In these situations, the intelligent traction
control
limits the amount of wheel spin to
p
rovide the best traction and trajectory control
f
or your vehicle.
The
use of snow tyres is strongly
r
ecommended on sur faces offering low levels
o
f adhesion.
When
changing wheels (tyres and
r
ims), ensure that these are approved
f
or your vehicle.
Normal
operation of the ABS may make
i
tself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
ped
al.
In emergency braking, press ver y
firmly and maintain this pressure.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In
both
cases, have the system checked by a
C
ITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as
s
oon
as
possible.
The
vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
c
arefully
at moderate speed.

QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
The quality of reception of the radio station listened to gradually deteriorates or the stored stations do not function (no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...).
The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listened to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the vehicle is travelling.
Activate the "RDS" function by means of the short-cut menu to enable the system to check whether there is a more power ful transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate a fault with the audio system.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going through a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a franchised dealer.
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of stations received.
The station is not received or its name has changed in the list. Press on the "Update list" button in the "Radio stations" secondary menu.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name (the title of the song for example). The system interprets this information as the name of the station. The name of the radio station changes.
