12 mph   (30   and   180   km/h).
An
  automatic   gearbox   must   be   in   position   D
or M . Other wise,
  the   last   setting   made   will   be   used

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking.   It   detects   a   parking   space   then  
o

perates   the   steering   to   park   in   the   space.
It
  operates   the   steering   while   the   driver  
m

anages   the   accelerator,   brakes,   gears   and  
c

lutch   (manual   gearbox).   During   phases   of  
e

ntry   into   and   exit   from   a   parking   space,   the  
s

ystem   provides   visual   and   audible   information  
t

o   the   driver   in   order   to   make   the   manoeuvres  
s

afe.   It   may   be   necessary   to   move   for wards  
a

nd   backwards   more   than   once. During
  a   manoeuvre   the   steering  
w

heel   turns   quickly:   do   not   hold   the  
s

teering   wheel,   do   not   place   your   hands  
b

etween   the   spokes   of   the   steering  
w

heel   and   take   care   with   loose   and  
b

ulky   clothing,   scarves,   handbags...  
T

here   is   a   risk   of   injury.
When
  Park   Assist   is   activated,   it  
p

revents   a   change   to   STOP   mode   of  
S

top   &   Start.   In   STOP   mode,   activation  
o

f   Park   Assist   restarts   the   engine.
The
  Park   Assist   system   cannot   in   any  
c

ircumstances   replace   the   need   for  
v

igilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The
  driver   must   remain   in   control  
o

f   their   vehicle   ensuring   that   the  
s

pace   remains   clear   throughout   the  
m

anoeuvre.
In
  some   circumstances,   the   sensors  
m

ay   not   detect   small   obstacles   located  
i

n   their   blind   spots.
The
  driver   can   take   control   at   any   time   by  
g

ripping   the   steering   wheel. The
  Park   Assist   system   provides   assistance   for  t
he   following   manoeuvres:
A.

kingThe
  Park   Assist   system   takes   control  
o

f   the   power   steering   for   a   maximum  
o

f   4   manoeuvre   cycles.   The   function  
i

s   deactivated   after   these   4   cycles.  
I

f   you   think   that   your   vehicle   is   not  
p

ositioned   correctly,   you   should   then

a

ccompanied   by   an   audible   signal.
The
  driver   should   then   take   back   control   of   the  
v

ehicle's
 s
teering.
Deactivation
The system is switched off automatically:
-  w hen   towing   a   trailer,   connected  
e

lectrically,
-
 
i
f   the   driver's   door   is   opened,
-
 
i
f   the   speed   of   the   vehicle   is   above   42   mph  
(

70   km/h).
To
  switch   the   system   of   for   a   prolonged   period,  
c

ontact   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop.
Operating faults
In the event of a fault with the power
steering,   this   warning   lamp   flashes   in  
t

he   instrument   panel,   accompanied  
b

y   a   message.
Contact
 
a
  CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop.
Switching off
If the lateral distance between your v ehicle   and   the   space   is   too   great,   the s

ystem   may   not   be   able   to   measure   the
 spa

ce.
Anything
  projecting   beyond   the   envelope
 o

f   the   vehicle   (a   ladder   on   the   roof,   for
 e

xample)   is   not   taken   into   account   by   the
 P

ark   Assist   system   during   a   manoeuvre.
In
  bad   weather   or   in   winter,   ensure   that  
t

he   sensors   are   not   covered   by   road  
d

irt,   ice   or   snow.
In
  the   event   of   a   fault,   have   the   system  
c

hecked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q

ualified

orkshop.
If
 
the
 
system
 
is
 
deactivated
 
during
 
a

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
However,
  check   that   the   terminals  
a

re   clean   and   correctly   tightened,  
p

articularly   in   summer   and   winter.Refer
  to   the   manufacturer's  s
ervice   schedule   for   details   of   the  
r

eplacement   intervals   for   these  
c

omponents.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the engine   oil   is   changed.
Refer
  to   the   manufacturer's  
s

ervice   schedule   for   details   of  
t

he   replacement   interval   for   this  
c

omponent.
Oil filterThe presence of this label, in particular
with   the   Stop   &   Start   system,   indicates   the u

se   of   a   specific   12   V   lead-acid   battery
 w

ith   special   technology   and   specification.
 T

he   involvement   of   a   CITROËN   dealer
 o

r   a   qualified   workshop   is   essential   when
 r

eplacing   or   disconnecting   the   battery.
Unless
  other wise   indicated,   check   these   components   in   accordance   with   the   manufacturer's   service   schedule   and   according   to   your   engine.
Other wise,   have   them   checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty a
tmosphere)   and   the   use   of   the   vehicle   (e.g. city d

riving),
 r
eplace them twice as often if necessar y .
A
  clogged   passenger   compartment   filter   may   have
 a

n   adverse   effect   on   the   per formance   of   the   air
 c

onditioning   system   and   generate   undesirable
 o

dours.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filter   is   indicated   by   the   fixed  
i

llumination   of   this   warning   lamp  
a

ccompanied   by   a   warning   message.
As
 
soon   as   the   traffic   conditions   permit,  
r

egenerate   the   filter   by   driving   at   a  
s

peed   of   at   least   40   mph   (60   km/h)   until  
t

he
 
warning   lamp   goes   off.
If
 
the   warning   lamp   stays   on,   this  
i

ndicates   a   low   additive   level.
For
