HILL START ASSIST
This system (also called HHC - Hill
Holder
  Control),   linked   to   the   dynamic  
stability

  control   system,   makes   hill  
starts easier and is activated in the
following

  conditions:
-

the vehicle must be stationary
,
engine
  running,   foot   on   the   brake,
-

the gradient of the road must be
steeper than 5%,
-


uphill, the gearbox must be in
neutral or in a gear other than
reverse,
-


downhill, reverse gear must be
engaged.
The Hill Start

Assist system is a driving
aid.
  It   is   not   an   automatic   vehicle  
parking

  function   or   an   automatic  
parking

  brake.
Operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal pressed, from the time you release
the  brake   pedal,   without   using   the  
parking

  brake,   you   have   approximately  
2

seconds to move off before the
vehicle
  starts   to   roll   back.
During the moving off phase, the
function is deactivated automatically,
gradually
  releasing   the   braking  
pressure.

  During   this   phase,   the  
characteristic noise of mechanical
release

  of   the   brakes   may   be   heard,  
indicating the imminent movement of
the

  vehicle.
Operating fault
Hill start assist is deactivated in the
following   situations:
-

when the clutch pedal is released,
-

 
when
  the   parking   brake   is   applied,
-

when the engine is switched of
f,
-
 
when
  the   engine   stalls.
If a malfunction of the
system occurs, this
warning lamp comes on
accompanied by an audible
signal
  and   confirmed   by  
a

  message   in   the   screen.   Have   the  
system

  checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer  
or

  a   qualified   workshop.

DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS
Observe the driving regulations and
remain  vigilant   whatever   the   traffic  
conditions.
Pay

  close   attention   to   the   traffic   and  
keep

  your   hands   on   the   wheel   so   that  
you are ready to react at any time to
any

  eventuality.
As a safety precaution, the driver
must only carry out actions requiring
sustained attention when the vehicle is
stationary.
On
  a   long   journey,   a   break   every  
two hours

  is   strongly   recommended.
In
  difficult   weather,   drive   smoothly,  
anticipate

  the   need   to   brake   and  
increase the distance from other
vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving
on  flooded   roads,   as   this   could   cause  
serious damage to the engine or
gearbox, as well as to the electrical
systems

  of   your   vehicle. If you are obliged to drive through
water:
-
 
check
  that   the   depth   of   water   does  
not

  exceed   15   cm,   taking   account  
of waves that might be generated
by other users,
-

deactivate the Stop & Start system,
-

drive as slowly as possible without
stallin

g.   In   all   cases,   do   not   exceed  6
  mph   (10   km/h),
- do not stop and do not switch of f
the
  engine.
On
  leaving   the   flooded   road,   as   soon  
as

  circumstances   allow,   make   several  
light

  brake   applications   to   dry   the   brake  
discs

  and   pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
  workshop.Never
  drive   with   the   parking   brake  
applied

  -   Risk   of   overheating   and  
damage

  to   the   braking   system!
Risk   of   fire!
As the exhaust system of your vehicle
is very hot, even several minutes
after switching off the engine, do not
park   or   leave   the   engine   running   over  
areas

  where   inflammable   substances  
and

  materials   are   present:   grass,  
leaves, etc.
Never leave a vehicle
unsupervised with the engine
running.
  If   you   have   to   leave  your vehicle with the engine running,
apply
  the   parking   brake   and   put   the  
gearbox into neutral or position

N or P,
depending
  on   the   type   of   gearbox.
Important!

Driving safely
ANTI-SLIP REGULATION (ASR)
AND

DYNAMIC STABILITY

CONTROL (DSC)
These systems are linked and complement  the  ABS.
The
ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and
avoiding losses of control of the vehicle
on
  acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent
the
  wheels   skidding,   by   acting   on   the  
brakes

  of   the   drive   wheels   and   on   the  
engine.

  It   also   allows   the   directional  
stability of the vehicle to be improved
on

  acceleration.
Use the DSC to hold your course
without
  attempting   to   countersteer.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory
  followed   by   the   vehicle   and  
that required by the driver

, the DSC
system automatically acts on the
engine
  and   the   brake   of   one   or   more  
wheels,

  in   order   to   put   the   vehicle   back  
on

  course.
Deactivation
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting   the   vehicle   when   stuck   in   mud  
or

  snow,   or   on   loose   ground...),   it   could  
prove useful to deactivate the

ASR and
DSC
  systems   to   make   the   wheels   spin  
and

  regain   grip.
Operating fault
Good practice
The ASR/DSC   systems   offer   increased  safety during normal driving, but
should
  not   incite   the   driver   to   take   risks  
or

  to   drive   at   high   speed.
The operation of these systems is
ensured if the recommendations
of the manufacturer regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking
  components,   the   electronic  
components

  and   the   fitting   and   repair  
procedures

  are   observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked
  by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
qualified

  workshop.
Operation
The warning lamp flashes when operation of the ASR or
DSC
  is   triggered.
They engage again:
-

automatically above 30 mph

(50
 
km/h), When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the warning
lamp and the LED come on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen.
-

Press the button or turn
the dial to the DSC OFF
position (depending on
model).
-

 
The

 
LED   comes   on:   the  
ASR
  and  
DSC systems no longer come into
play

. -

manually by pressing the
button again or by turning
the dial to this position
(depending

  on   model).Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
  workshop   to   have   the   system  
checked.
The warning lamp may also come on if
the

  tyres   are   under-inflated.   Check   the  
pressure

  of   each   tyre.
