Temporary manual control of
gear changes
You can temporarily take control of gear
changes using the " +" and " -" steering mounted
control paddles. The gear change instruction is
acted on if the engine speed permits.
This function allows you to anticipate certain
situations, such as overtaking another vehicle
or approaching a bend in the road.
Following a few moments with no action on
the control paddles, the gearbox returns to
automatic operation.
Manual operation
AUTO disappears and the gears
engaged are displayed successively
in the instrument panel.

Operating fault
Depending on your vehicle's equipment:
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall.
All of the instrument panel warning lamps
come on.
Depending on version, an alert message may
also be displayed, asking you to place the gear
lever in position N and put your foot on the
brake pedal.
With the vehicle stationary, you must switch off
the ignition and then start the engine again. The Stop & Start system requires a
12
V battery with a special specification
and technology.
The warning lamp in this button
flashes and a message appears,
accompanied by an audible signal. In the event of a fault with the
system, this warning lamp flashes in
the instrument panel. All work on this type of battery must
be done by a CITROËN or a qualified
workshop.
For more information on the 12 V
battery, refer to the corresponding
section.

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 non-reflective
coating. We recommend that adjustments are
made using these buttons only when
the vehicle is stationary.
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.

Speed limit recognition
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).
Principles
Depending on equipment, the
system takes account of speed limit
information from the navigation system
mapping.
The units for the speed limits (mph or
km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
It should be taken into account so that
you observe the speed limit.
For the system to operate correctly
when you change country, the units for
speed in the instrument panel must be
those for the country you are driving in. Depending on equipment, using a camera at
the top of the windscreen, this system detects
and reads speed limit and end of speed limit
signs.
Depending on equipment, the system takes
account of the camera and information from the
navigation system mapping.
To maintain correct operation of the
system: regularly clean the area in front
of the camera. 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.
For the speed limit information given
by the navigation system to be correct,
your mapping software must be
regularly updated.

Memorising the speed
setting
This memorisation is in addition to the display
of Speed limit recognition .
The driver can choose to adapt the speed
setting to the speed limit suggested, by
pressing the memorisation button at the speed
limiter controls, with the standard cruise control
or the dynamic cruise control.
This speed setting then replaces the previous
speed setting for the speed limiter and/or
dynamic cruise control. For more information on the
Speed limiter , Cruise control or
Dynamic cruise control , refer to the
corresponding sections.
Steering mounted controls
1. Select speed limiter/cruise control mode.

Operation of the system may be disrupted or it
may not work at all in the following situations:
-
