Cruise control ("CRUISE")
System which automatically maintains
the speed of the vehicle at the value
programmed by the driver, without any
action on the accelerator pedal.

memorised speeds or memorise the speed
offered by the speed limit recognition
system.
The cruise control system cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need to
observe speed limits, nor can it replace the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
You are advised to keep your feet near the
pedals at all times.
For more information on Speed
limit recognition , refer to the
corresponding section.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.

Dynamic cruise control ("CRUISE")
This systems allows the vehicle's speed to
be maintained at a value set by the driver.
In addition it allows (when circumstances
permit) an inter-vehicle distance that you
have selected to be maintained between
your vehicle and the vehicle in front.
In the Driving menu, activate/deactivate
" Dynamic cruise control".
The state of the system is memorised on
switching off the ignition.
Activation / Deactivation
The cruise control selection
thumbwheel must be at the
"CRUISE" position, otherwise the
selection is not taken into account.
Activation or deactivation of
the system is via the vehicle
configuration menu.

distance setting from the three levels
("Close ", "Normal ", "Distant ").
Modification of the inter-
vehicle distanceIn the event of the presence of a vehicle
detected by the inter-vehicle distance
radar, if the speed selected is too far
above the speed of that vehicle, the
system is not activated and the alert
message "Activation not possible,
conditions unsuitable" is displayed until
driving conditions are safe to allow
activation of the system.
The inter-vehicle distance setting
is memorised when the ignition is
switched off.
Exceeding the programmed
speed
Simply release the accelerator pedal
to return to the programmed speed. It is possible to exceed the
programmed speed temporarily by
depressing the accelerator pedal. The dynamic cruise control can be paused
manually with the control, or automatically:
-
b
y pressing the brake or clutch pedal,
-
i
n the event of operation of the ESC, for
safety reasons,
-
w
hen an inter-vehicle distance threshold
is reached (calculated according to the
relative speeds of your vehicle and the
vehicle in front and the inter-vehicle
distance setting selected),
-
w
hen the distance between your vehicle
and the one in front becomes too small,
-
w
hen the speed of the vehicle in front is
too
low,
- w hen the speed of your vehicle becomes
too low.
Pause
If the programmed setting is unintentionally
exceeded, descending a steep hill for example,
the speed setting in the instrument panel
flashes as a warning.

Fatigue detection system
The system resets itself if one of the following
conditions is met:
-
e
ngine running, the vehicle has been
stationary for more than 15 minutes,
-
t
he ignition has been switched off for a
few
m
inutes,
-
t
he driver's seat belt is unfastened and
their door is open.
As soon as the speed of the vehicle
drops below 40 mph (65 km/h), the
system goes into standby.
The driving time is counted again once
the speed is above 40 mph (65 km/h).
The system cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Do not take the wheel if you are tired. The system triggers an alert once it
detects that the driver has not taken
a break after two hours of driving at a
speed above 40 mph (65 km/h).
It is recommended that you take a break
as soon as you feel tired or at least every
two
hours.
Depending on version, the vehicle either has
the "Driving time warning system" only, or this
combined with the "Fatigue detection system".
Driving time warning
With the audio system
In the " Personalisation-configuration "
menu, activate/deactivate " Fatigue Detection
System ".
Activation / Deactivation
The system is activated or deactivated via the
vehicle configuration menu.
This alert takes the form of the display of a
message encouraging you to take a break,
accompanied by an audible signal.
If the driver does not follow this advice, the
alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is
stopped. In the vehicle settings menu, activate/
deactivate "
Fatigue Detection System ".

Operating fault
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.
Depending on your vehicle's equipment:
With the touch screen
In the Driving
menu, activate/deactivate " Blind
spot monitoring ".
In the event of a fault, these warning lamps
flash.
The indicator lamp in this button
flashes and a message appears,
accompanied by an audible signal.
The state of the system remains in
memory on switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically deactivated
when towing with a towbar approved by
CITROËN.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, do not
place the tip of the lance within 30 cm
of the sensors as otherwise there is a
risk of damaging them.

Under-inflation alertReinitialisation
Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres are
correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line with the recommendations on the
tyre pressure label.
The under-inflation alert can only
be relied on if the reinitialisation of
the system has been done with the
pressures in the four tyres correctly
adjusted.
The under-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
This is given by fixed illumination of
this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal and, depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
It is necessary to reinitialise the system every
time one or more tyre pressures are adjusted,
and after changing one or more wheels.

excessive steering movements and sudden
braking.
F
S
top the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so. F
I
n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment),
or
F
i
f you have a compressor, such as the one
in the temporary puncture repair kit, check
the pressures of the four tyres when cold,
or
F
i
f it is not possible to make this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual
check. The alert is maintained until the system
is reinitialised.
Initialisation of the system is done with the
ignition on and the vehicle stationary.The new pressure settings registered
are considered to be reference values
by the system.
