When stationary or while driving, no objects
should be placed around the blade (or in its
recess) so as to not impede deployment of
the blade and its correct operation.
In certain extreme weather conditions
(rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, etc.)
the head-up display may not be legible or
may suffer temporary interference.
Some sunglasses may hamper reading of
the information.
To clean the blade, use a clean, soft cloth
(such as a spectacles cloth or microfibre
cloth). Do not use a dry or abrasive cloth
or detergent or solvent products as these
could scratch the blade or damage the
anti-reflection coating.
This system operates when the engine is
running, and the settings are stored when
the ignition is switched off.
Memorising speeds
This function allows speed settings to be stored
that will then be offered for configuration of two
systems: speed limiter or cruise control.
You can store up to six speed settings for each
system.
Default speed settings have already been
stored.As a safety measure, the driver must only
carry out these operations to change
speed settings when the vehicle is
stationary.

speed setting to use with the speed limiter or
the programmable cruise control.
Recognition of
speed limit signs and
recommendation
The units for the speed limits (mph or
km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
This should be taken into account in order
to obser ve the speed limit.
For the system to operate correctly when
you change country, the units for speed in
the instrument panel must be set to those
for the country you are driving in.
The automatic reading of road signs is a
driving assistance system and does not
always display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over the display by the
system.
The system cannot in any circumstances
replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver.
The driver must observe the driving
regulations and must adapt the speed of
the vehicle to suit the weather and traffic.
It is possible for the system to not display
the speed limit if it does not detect a
speed limit sign within a preset period.
The system is designed to detect signs
that conform to the Vienna Convention on
road signs. To maintain correct operation of the
system: regularly clean the area in front of
the camera.
The internal sur face of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Principles
This system allows the speed limit detected by
the camera to be displayed in the instrument
panel.
The system also processes speed limit details
from the navigation system mapping.
This system allows the speed limit detected by
the camera to be displayed in the instrument
panel.
Specific speed limits, such as those for heavy
goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the instrument
panel is updated as you pass a speed limit sign
intended for cars (light vehicles).

It is necessary to update your navigation
mapping regularly in order to receive
accurate information on speed limits from
the system.

Speed limiter
System which prevents the
vehicle from exceeding the speed
programmed by the driver. The minimum programmed speed is 20
mph
(30 km/h).
The programmed speed remains in the system
memory when the ignition is switched off.
The speed limiter is a driving aid that
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
need to obser ve speed limits or the need
for vigilance on the part of the driver.

Temporarily exceeding the
speed setting
F Press firmly on the accelerator pedal,
going beyond the point of resistance, to
exceed the programmed speed limit.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the displayed programmed speed flashes.
On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
When the limit speed is exceeded but this is not
due to action by the driver, there is an audible
signal to complete the alert.
Once the speed of the vehicle returns to
the programmed setting, the speed limiter
functions again: the display of the programmed
speed setting becomes steady again.
Switching off
F Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the 0 position: the display of information about the speed
limiter disappears. Flashing dashes indicate a fault with the speed
limiter.
Have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The use of mats not approved by
CITROËN may inter fere with the operation
of the speed limiter.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is positioned
c o r r e c t l y,
-
d
o not fit one mat on top of another.
Malfunction
Cruise control
System which automatically
maintains the speed of the vehicle
at the value programmed by the
driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.The cruise control is switched on

manually.
It requires a minimum vehicle speed of
25 mph (40 km/h) as well as:
-
w
ith a manual gearbox, the
engagement of third gear or higher,
-
w
ith an automatic gearbox, the
engagement of the selector in mode D
or of second gear or higher in mode M .
The cruise control is paused manually or by
pressing the brake or clutch pedal or if the ESC
system is invoked for safety reasons.
Once switched on, you can pause the cruise
control at any time by pressing button 4 : the
screen confirms the pause.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed setting.
The cruise control system is a driving aid
that cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need to obser ve speed limits, nor the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
As a safety measure, you are advised to
keep your feet near the pedals at all times.
