Deactivation of the system is recommended in
the following situations:
-
d
riving on a road sur face in poor condition,
-
p
oor weather conditions,
-
d
riving on slippery sur faces (ice).
Activation/Deactivation
Activation and deactivation of the system is
done in the Driving menu of the touch screen.
Select the " Driving functions " then the "Lane
assist " tab.
The system state remains in memory when the
ignition is switched off.
Malfunction
Operating limits
The system goes into standby automatically in
the following cases:
-
E
SC deactivated or operation triggered,
-
s
peed below 40 mph (65 km/h) or greater
than 112
mph (180 km/h),
-
c
onnected electrically to a
trailer,
-
u
se of the "space-saver" spare
wheel detected (as detection is not
immediate, deactivation of the system is
recommended),
-
d
ynamic driving style detected, pressure on
the brake or accelerator pedal,
-
d
riving where there are no lane markings,
-
a
ctivation of the direction indicators,
-
c
rossing the inside line on a bend,
-
d
riving in a tight corner,
-
i
nactivity by the driver detected during
correction. The following situations may interfere with
the operation of the system or prevent it
working:
-
c
onditions of poor visibility (inadequate
street lighting, snowfall, rain, fog),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a
damp
road, leaving a
tunnel, alternating
shade and light),
-
w
indscreen area located in front of the
camera: dirty, misted, frost-covered,
snow-covered, damaged or covered by
a
s t i c ke r,
-
l
ane markings worn, hidden (snow,
mud) or multiple (roadworks, etc.),
-
r
unning close to the vehicle in front
(the lane markings may not be
detected),
-
r
oads that are narrow, winding, etc.
Risk of undesirable operation
The system is not intended for driving in the
following situations:
-
d
riving on a speed circuit,
-
d
riving with a trailer,
-
d
riving on a rolling stand,
-
d
riving on unstable sur faces.
In the event of a
fault with the system, you are
alerted by the illumination of these warning
lamps in the instrument panel, accompanied by
the display of a
message and an audible signal.
Have the system checked by a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Driving
176
Using a camera placed at the top
o f the windscreen, the system
assesses the driver's level of
vigilance by identifying variations
in trajectory compared to the lane
markings.
This system is particularly suited to fast roads
(speed higher than 40
mph (65 km/h)).
When the system interprets the behaviour of
the vehicle as indicating a
certain fatigue or
inattention threshold on the part of the driver, it
triggers the first level of alert.
The driver is then alerted by the message
" Ta k e c a r e ! ", accompanied by an audible
signal. After three first level alerts, the system triggers
a
new alert with the message "
Take a break!
",
accompanied by a more pronounced audible
signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor road
sur face or strong winds), the system may
give alerts independent of the driver's
level of vigilance.
The following situations may interfere with
the operation of the system or prevent it
working:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate lighting of
the roadway, falling snow, heavy rain,
dense fog, etc.),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a
damp
road, leaving a
tunnel, alternating
shade and light, etc.),
-
w
indscreen area located in front of the
camera dirty, misted up, frost-covered,
snow-covered, damaged or covered by
a
s t i c ke r,
-
l
ane markings absent, worn, hidden
(snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks,
e t c .),
-
c
lose to the vehicle ahead (lane
markings not detected),
-
r
oads that are narrow, winding, 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
conceal the detection camera.
Clean the front bumper, especially around
the radar, removing mud, snow, etc.
Parking sensors
Using sensors located in the bumper, this
function warns of the proximity of obstacles
(e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) entering
their field of detection.
Driving
178
The rear parking sensors system will
be deactivated automatically if a trailer
or bicycle carrier is connected to
a
towing device installed in line with the
manufacturer's recommendations.
In this case, the outline of a
trailer is
displayed at the rear of the image of the
vehicle.
The parking sensors are deactivated while the
Park Assist system is measuring a
space.
For more information on the Park Assist , refer
to the corresponding section.
Operating limits
- A front or rear impact to the vehicle can distort the settings of the sensors, which is
not always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be incorrect.
-
T
he tilting of the vehicle if the boot is
very loaded can affect the distance
measurements.
-
T
he sensors may be affected by poor
weather conditions (heavy rain, thick fog,
snowfall, etc.).
Operating fault
If the system fails, when reverse
gear is engaged this warning lamp
flashes for a
few seconds before
lighting up continuously, together
with the Service warning lamp.
A message appears, accompanied by an
audible signal.
Contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop. In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered by mud, ice or
snow.
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the
sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle,
lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger
the audible signals of the parking sensor
system.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, direct the
lance at least 30
cm away from the
sensors.
-
C
ertain obstacles located in the sensors'
blind spots may not be detected or no
longer be detected during the manoeuvre.
-
S
ounds such as those emitted by noisy
vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries,
pneumatic drills, etc.) may inter fere with the
vehicle's sensors.
-
C
ertain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
-
A
ccumulated snow or dead leaves on the
road sur face can inter fere with the vehicle's
sensors.
Reversing camera
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.

Changing a bulb
The lamps have polycarbonate lenses with
a
protective coating:
F
d
o not clean them using a dr y or
abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent
or solvent product,
F
u
se a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product,
F
w
hen using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep the
lance directed towards the lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to
damage their protective coating and
seals.
Changing a
bulb should only be done after
the lamp has been switched off for several
minutes (risk of serious burns).
F
D
o not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers, use a
lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
Always replace a
failed bulb with a new
bulb with the same type and specification. In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal sur face of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps is
normal; it disappears after the lamps have
been on for a
few minutes.
Risk of electrocution
Xenon bulbs (D5S-25W) must be replaced
by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
