This system indicates the proximity of an obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
w
hich comes within the field of detection of
s
ensors located in the bumper.
Certain
types of obstacle (stake, roadworks
c
one, etc.) detected initially will no longer be
d
etected at the end of the manoeuvre due to
t
he presence of blind spots.
Rear parking sensors
This function cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the need f
or vigilance on the part of the driver.The
system is switched on by engaging reverse
g
ear. This is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
o
f reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an i
ntermittent audible signal, the frequency of which i
ncreases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The
sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)
i
ndicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
When
the distance between the vehicle and
t
he obstacle becomes less than approximately
t
hirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
c
ontinuous.
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by d isplaying bars in the screen which move
p
rogressively nearer to the vehicle.
When
the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
s
ymbol is displayed in the screen.

In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the sensors are not covered with
m
ud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is
e

i
ndicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Certain
sound sources (motorcycle,
l
orry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger
t
he audible signals of the parking
s
ensor system.
In

Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
programme (ESP)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as Traction Control) optimises traction to prevent skidding o
f the wheels, by acting on the brakes of the
d
riving wheels and on the engine.
The
electronic stability programme acts on the
b
rake of one or more wheels and on the engine
t
o keep the vehicle on the trajectory required by
t
he driver, within the limits of the laws of physics.
This
is indicated by flashing of this
w
arning lamp in the instrument panel. The
ASR /ESP systems offer
e
xceptional safety in normal driving, but
t
his should not encourage the driver to
t
ake extra risks or drive at high speed.
The
correct functioning of these
s
ystems depends on observation of
t
he
ma
nufacturer's
r
ecommendations
r
egarding the wheels (tyres and rims),
t
he braking components, the electronic
c
omponents and the assembly
a
nd repair procedures used by the
C
ITROËN dealer network.
After
an impact, have these systems
c
hecked by a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified
w
orkshop.
Operating fault
Illumination of the warning lamp, accompanid by a message in the

Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
