AudIBLE rEAr PArKInG SEnSOrS
if fitted on your vehicle, the system consists
of four proximity sensors, installed in the
rear bumper.
They detect any obstacle: person, vehicle,
tree, fence, behind the vehicle during the
manoeuvre.
However, objects the size or thickness of
which are detected at the beginning of the
manoeuvre will no longer be detected at the
end of the manoeuvre: blind spots between
and below the sensors. Examples: stake,
roadworks cone or pavement post.
The rear parking sensor system may be
coupled with a reversing camera.Operation
Engage reverse gear with the gear lever.
The proximity information is indicated by an
audible signal of increasing frequency as the
vehicle approaches the obstacle.
When the distance between the rear of
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately thirty centimetres, the audible
signal becomes continuous.
Switching off
Come our of reverse gear into neutral.
Operating fault
if this warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel
accompanied by a message in
the screen, contact a C
i T roën

dealer or a qualified workshop.
Good practice
The system cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance on the part of
the driver.
Take even greater care if you reverse with a
rear door open.
i

n bad weather or in winter, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow.

Good practice
The ABS system does not provide shorter
braking distances. o n very slippery surfaces
(black ice, oil...) the ABS can extend braking
distances. For emergency braking, press the
brake pedal hard and do not release it, even
on a slipper surface; you will then be able to
steer the vehicle and avoid an obstacle.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables
you to obtain the optimum braking pressure
more quickly, thus reducing the stopping
distance.
Operation
i

t is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase in
braking efficiency.
Switching off
This system cannot be deactivated by
the
driver.
Operating faulti
f this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument
panel screen, it indicates a fault with
the anti-lock braking system which could result in
loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
For maximum braking efficiency, a
bedding-in period of around 300 miles
(500 kilometres) is needed. During this
period it is recommended that you avoid
harsh, repeated or prolonged braking.
i

f this warning lamp comes on,
together with the ABS warning
lamp, accompanied by a message
in the instrument panel screen,
it indicates a fault with the electronic brake
force distribution which could result in loss
of control of the vehicle when braking. When braking in an emergency, press
firmly without releasing the pressure.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
i

n either case, contact a C
i
T
roën
dealer or
a qualified workshop.

driver.
dynamic stability control
( d S c )
The electronic stability programme acts on
the brake of one or more wheels and on the
engine to keep the vehicle on the trajectory
required by the driver, within the limits of the
laws of physics.
With the DSC system, maintain course
without trying to countersteer.
Operation
The DSC system is activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started. Operating fault
i

llumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal
and confirmed by a message
in the instrument panel screen,
indicates a fault with the DSC system.
Have it checked by a C
i T roën dealer or a
qualified workshop. Operation
This system is activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
i

n the event of a problem of adhesion or
trajectory, this system comes into play.
Switching off
i

n exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow,
on soft ground...), it may be advisable to
deactivate the AS
r system, so that the
wheels can spin freely and regain grip.
-

Press this button, located in the

middle of the dashboard, to deactivate
the
system.
Anti-slip regulation (ASr)
Anti-slip regulation (also known as traction
control) optimises traction, avoiding wheel
spin by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and the engine.
i

f the button's warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by a message in the
instrument panel screen, this indicates that
the AS
r system is deactivated.

Operating fault
i

f this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument
panel screen, this indicates a fault
with the AS
r system.
Have it checked by a C
i T roën dealer or a
qualified workshop. Good practice
The DSC and AS
r systems offer exceptional
safety in normal driving, but this should not
encourage the driver to take extra risks or
drive at high speed.
The correct operation of these systems
depend on observation of the manufacturer's
recommendations regarding the wheels
(tyres and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and assembly
and repair procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a C
i T roën dealer or a qualified
workshop.Load inertia control
The true total weight of a commercial vehicle
can vary considerably depending on the load
carried. As a result, the centre of gravity of
the vehicle can move, both longitudinally
and in height.
All such variations have an effect on braking,
traction, the behaviour of the vehicle when
cornering and the tendency to overturn.
Load inertia control estimates the true
total weight of the vehicle by analysing its
behaviour under acceleration and braking.
This system then adapts the operation of
the DSC and AS
r systems according to the
weight distribution in the vehicle.
i n critical
situations, your vehicle than remains more
securely on its intended trajectory.

Intelligent traction c ontrol
System to improve traction on slippery
surfaces (snow, black ice, mud...)
This system checks for situations of difficult
surface adhesion that could make it difficult
to move off or make progress.
i

n these situations, Intelligent t
raction

c

ontrol takes over from the AS r system,
by transferring drive to the wheel with the
best grip on the ground to provide the best
