Blind Spot Monitoring System
This system warns the driver of the presence of
another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their
vehicle (areas masked from the driver's field
of vision), as soon as this presents a potential
danger.A fixed warning lamp appears in the door mirror
on the side in question:
-
i
mmediately, when being overtaken,
-
a
fter a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly.
This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a
substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's
responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to assess the distances and relative speeds of
other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.
This system is a driving aid that cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Activation / Deactivation
Activation and deactivation of the system is
done in the vehicle configuration menu. This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.
To deactivate the system, go to the vehicle
configuration menu again.
The indicator lamp goes off.
The system is automatically deactivated
when towing with a towbar approved by
CITROËN.
The status of the system remains in memory on
switching off the ignition.

In the event of a fault, this warning
lamp flashes for a few moments in
the instrument panel, accompanied
by illumination of the Service warning
lamp and the display of a message.The system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather
conditions (rain, hail, etc.).
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.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, direct the
lance at least 30 cm away from the
sensors.
Operating fault
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
