On sharp acceleration, as when
descending a steep hill, the speed
limiter will not be able to prevent
the vehicle from exceeding the
programmed speed.
The limiter is temporarily deactivated
and the displayed programmed speed
flashes.
An audible signal accompanies the
flashing of the programmed speed
when exceeding the speed is not due to
an action by the driver.
The use of mats not approved by
CITROËN may inter fere with the
operation of the speed limiter.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:
-

Dynamic cruise control
System that allows, in addition to maintaining your vehicle's speed at a value that you have defined, the inter-vehicle time you have selected between
your vehicle and the one in front to be maintained.
Principles of operation
Using a radar with a range of about 100 metres,
located at the front of the vehicle, this system
detects a vehicle running in front of your
vehicle.
It automatically adapts the speed of the vehicle
to that of the vehicle in front.
If the vehicle in front is running more slowly,
the system progressively reduces the speed of
your vehicle using just engine braking (as if the
driver had pressed the "-" button).
If your vehicle is too close to or approaching
the vehicle in front too quickly, the dynamic
cruise control is automatically deactivated.
The driver is then alerted by an audible signal,
accompanied by a message.
Choice of the type of cruise control
The choice between the "dynamic" and
"standard" cruise control is done in the Driving
menu.
F
I
n the Driving menu, select the " Driving
function " tab, then " Cruise control
active " to activate or deactivate the
dynamic cruise control.
For more information on the Cruise
control , refer to the corresponding
section. F
P
lace the cruise control
thumbwheel at "CRUISE". If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the dynamic cruise control progressively
accelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed speed.
If the driver operates a direction indicator to
the left (left-hand drive) or the right (right-
hand drive), to overtake a slower vehicle, the
dynamic cruise control allows your vehicle to
temporarily approach the vehicle in front to
assist the overtaking manoeuvre, though never
exceeding the programmed speed.

Operation of the rear foglamps is
inhibited with the tailgate open.
Opening the tailgate when these lamps
are on causes them and their indicator
lamp in the instrument panel to go off.
They do not come back on
automatically when the tailgate is
closed: they must be switched on again
using the control stalk.In good or rainy weather, by both day
and night, the front foglamps and the
rear foglamps are prohibited. In these
situations, the power of their beams
may dazzle other drivers. They should
only be used in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, you
should switch on the foglamps and
dipped beam headlamps manually,
as the sunshine sensor may detect
sufficient
light.
Do not forget to switch off the front and
rear foglamps when they are no longer
necessary.Switching off the lighting
when switching off the ignition
When the ignition is switched off, all of the
lamps switch off immediately, except for
the dipped beam headlamps if automatic
guide-me-home lighting is activated.
Switching on the lighting when
switching on the ignition
To reactivate the lighting control stalk,
turn the ring A to position "0" - lighting
off, then to the position of your choice.
When the driver's door is opened,
a
temporary audible signal warns you
that the vehicle's lighting is on.
They switch off automatically after a
period which depends on the state of
charge of the battery (entry to energy
economy mode).
