Engine oil level indicator
(Depending on version)
On versions fitted with an electric oil level
indicator, the state of the engine oil level is
displayed in the instrument panel for a few
seconds, after the servicing information.
The level read will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30
minutes.
Oil level correct
Oil level insufficient
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to
avoid damage to the engine.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Oil level indicator fault
In the event of a fault with the electric
indicator, the oil level is no longer
monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check the
engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located under the bonnet.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
AdBlue® liquid range
indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reser ve or after
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on, an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented.
In the event of simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range figure is
the one displayed.
This is indicated by the display of the "
Oil level
correct " message.
This is signalled by the display of the " Oil level
measurement invalid " message on the instrument
panel.

Alarm
System which protects and provides a deterrent
against theft and break-ins. It provides the
following types of monitoring:
- Perimeter monitoring
The system monitors the opening of the
vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to open a
door, the boot or the bonnet.
- Volumetric monitoring
The system checks for any variation in the
volume in the passenger compartment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a
window, enters the passenger compartment or
moves inside the vehicle.
- Anti-tilt monitoring
The system checks for any change in the
attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle is lifted,
moved or knocked.Self-protection function
The system checks for the disconnection
of any of its components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery,
button or siren wiring is disconnected or
damaged.
For all work on the alarm system,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

ock or deadlock the vehicle using the
"Keyless Entry and Starting" system. Following a command to lock the vehicle
using the remote control or the "
K

eyless Entry
and Starting" system, the exterior perimeter
monitoring is activated after 5 seconds, the
interior volumetric and anti-tilt monitoring after
45

seconds.
If an opening (door, boot, etc.) is incorrectly
closed, the vehicle is not locked but the exterior
perimeter monitoring will be activated after
45 seconds at the same time as the interior
volumetric and anti-tilt monitoring.
Deactivation
F Press the unlocking button on the remote control.
or
F

U

nlock the vehicle with the "
K

When the vehicle automatically locks itself
again (as happens if a door or boot is not
opened within 30
seconds of unlocking),
the monitoring system is automatically
reactivated.
F Switch off the ignition and get out of the vehicle.
The monitoring system is active: the button’s

Access

85
The system may suffer inter ference or not
work correctly:
-
u
nder poor visibility conditions (snow,
heavy rain, etc.),
-

i
f the windscreen in front of the camera
is dirty, misted or covered (by a sticker,
e t c .),
-

i
f the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
-

r
oad users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians,
-

v
ehicles whose lighting is obscured
(for example, vehicles driving behind a
safety barrier on a motor way),
-

v
ehicles at the top or bottom of a
steep slope, on winding roads, on
crossroads.
Headlamp adjustment
To avoid causing a nuisance to other road
users, the height of the headlamp beams
should be adjusted according to the load in the
vehicle.
0. Driver only or driver + front passenger.
1. Driver + front passenger + rear
passengers + maximum authorised load. The initial setting is position 0.
Cornering lighting
If your vehicle is equipped with it, this system
makes use of the beam from a front foglamp
to illuminate the inside of a bend, when the
main or dipped beam headlamps are on and
the vehicle speed is below 25 mph (40 km/h)
(urban driving, winding road, junctions, parking
manoeuvres, etc.).
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly 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.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
mask the camera's view.

Deactivation/Reactivation
In this case, this indicator lamp
flashes for a few seconds then goes
of f.
This operation is perfectly normal.
In certain circumstances, such as the need
to maintain the temperature in the passenger
compartment, it may be useful to deactivate the
Stop & Start system.
The system can be deactivated at any time,
once the ignition is switched on.
If the engine is in STOP mode, it then restarts.
The Stop & Start system is reactivated
automatically every time the ignition is switched
on.
With/Without audio system
F Press this button.
Deactivation is confirmed by illumination of the
indicator lamp for the button and the display of
a message. Pressing this button again reactivates the
function.
The indicator lamp for the button is turned off
and a message is displayed.

avoid any risk of injury resulting from an
automatic change to START mode.
Driving on flooded roads
Before driving in a flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving
recommendations , particularly on
flooded roads, refer to the corresponding
section. If a fault occurs in STOP mode, the engine may
stall.
All of the instrument panel warning lamps come on.It is then necessary to switch off the ignition
and start the engine again.
The Stop & Start system requires a
12
V battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work on this type of battery must be
carried out only by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
For more information on the 12
V batter y,
refer to the corresponding section.

or broken lines and detects the involuntary
crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings on
the road.
The camera analyses the image then, if the
driver's attention drops and the speed is higher
than 37 mph (60 km/h), triggers a warning if
there is an unexpected change of direction.
This system is particularly useful on motor ways
and main roads.This system is a driving aid that cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the driver’s
own vigilance.
Manual deactivation/
reactivation
