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, the dynamic cruise control or the
dynamic cruise control with Stop function.
This speed setting then replaces the previous
speed setting for the speed limiter and/or cruise
control. For more information on the Speed
limiter , Cruise control , Dynamic
cruise control or Dynamic cruise
control with Stop function , refer to
the corresponding sections. 1.

Special features of the function
The speed of the vehicle must be between
3 mph (5 km/h) and 87 mph (140 km/h) when a
moving vehicle is detected.
The speed of the vehicle must not be higher
than 50 mph (80 km/h) when a stationary
vehicle is detected.
The speed of the vehicle must not be higher
than 37 mph (60 km/h) when a pedestrian is
detected.
The ESC system must not be faulty.
The ASR function must not be deactivated.
The seat belts of all occupants must be
fastened.
Driving at a steady speed on fairly straight
roads is required.
Following an impact, the function is put
out of service automatically, consult
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to
avoid a collision, this system will complete the
braking, within the limits of the laws of physics.
This assistance will only be provided if you
press the brake pedal.
Deactivation / Activation
By default, the system is automatically
activated at every engine start.
The system can be deactivated or activated in
the vehicle settings menu in the screen. Deactivation of the system is
signalled by the illumination of this
indicator lamp, accompanied by the
display of a message.

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres. The under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous conditions
(high loading, high speed, long journey).
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label.
For more information on the
Identification markings, refer to the
corresponding section.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption. Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when the
tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1
hour or after a journey of less than
6
miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures
shown on the label.

Under-inflation alertReinitialisation
This is given by fixed illumination of
this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal and, depending on
equipment, the display of a message. It is necessary to reinitialise the system every
time one or more tyre pressures are adjusted,
and after changing one or more wheels.

F

I
n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment).
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual
check. The alert is maintained until the system
is reinitialised.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing
snow chains. Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres are
correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line with the recommendations on the
tyre pressure label.
The under-inflation alert can only
be relied on if the reinitialisation of
the system has been done with the
pressures in the four tyres correctly
adjusted.
The under-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.

Demisting - Defrosting
Door mirrors
Demisting-defrosting of the door
mirrors operates with the engine
running, by switching on the heated
rear screen. As a safety measure, the mirrors should
be adjusted to reduce the "blind spots".
The objects observed are, in reality,
closer than they appear.
Take this into account in order to
correctly judge the distance of vehicles
approaching from behind.
Folding

electronic key or the Keyless Entry and
Starting system.

A child surveillance mirror is fitted above the
rear view mirror. This allows you to monitor the
vehicle’s rear passengers, or it can facilitate
conversation between the front and rear
passengers without the need to move the rear

Main lighting
The various front and rear lamps of the vehicle
are designed to adapt the driver's visibility
progressively according to the climatic
conditions:
-
s

-

d
aytime running lamps to be more visible
during the day,
-

d
ipped beam headlamps to see without
dazzling other drivers,
-

m

the road is clear.
Additional lighting
Other lamps are provided to meet the
requirements of particular driving conditions:

-

d
irectional headlamps for improved
visibility when cornering,

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.
Travelling abroad
Halogen headlamps
For motoring in countries that drive
on the other side of the road, it is
necessary to adapt the adjustment of
the dipped beams so as to not dazzle
the drivers of approaching vehicles.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or qualified
workshop.
Xenon headlamps
The design of the dipped beam
headlamps allows you to drive in a
country that drives on the other side
of the road, without the need for any
modification.
In the event of the failure of one or more
bulbs, a message advises you to check
the lamp(s) in question.
