2017 CITROEN RELAY warning

111
LAnE dEPArturE WArn I n G
S YS t EM
System which detects the involuntary
crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings
on the ground (continuous or discontinuous
line).
A camera, fitted at the top centre of the
windscreen monitors the road and detects
lane markings and the position of the vehicle
within them.
With the vehicle running at a speed higher
than 35 mph (60 km/h), it triggers a warning
if the vehicle drifts off line.
This system operates to its full potential in
particular when used on motorways and
main roads.
Operation
The system starts automatically when
moving off. Operating conditions
Once running, the system is only active
when the operating conditions are met:
-

The vehicle is moving forward.
-

No operating fault
is detected in the
vehicle.
-
The vehicle is moving at a speed of at

least 37 mph (60 km/h).
-
The longitudinal lane markings on the

ground are clearly visible.
-
The conditions of visibility are normal.
-

The vehicle is in a straight line trajectory

(or if cornering, the corners are of large
radius).
-

The field of vision is suf
ficiently clear
(the safe distance from the vehicle in
front is observed).
-

If a lane marking is crossed (when

changing lane for example), the
corresponding direction indicator (left or
right) for the manoeuvre, is not used.
-

The vehicle's trajectory matches the

lane markings on the road.
The lane departure warning system
cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need for vigilance on the part of
the
driver.
If the windscreen is damaged, it is strongly
recommended that you go to a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop for any
replacement or calibration of the camera.
A check of the operating
conditions takes place: these two
indicator lamps come on in the
instrument panel.
When these conditions are met, these
two indicator lamps go off. The system is
activated.
If the operating conditions are not met,
the system is activated but is no longer
effective. This is signalled by the fixed
illumination of these two warning lamps in
the instrument panel.

heavy load (even more so if the load is
not evenly spread).
-
When the conditions of visibility are poor

(rain, fog, snow, ...).
-
When the lighting conditions are poor

(dazzling sun, shade, ...).
-
If the windscreen is dirty or damaged

close to the camera.
-
If the
ABS, DSC, ASR or Intelligent
Traction Control systems are out of
service.
The system is automatically deactivated
if the Stop & Start system is active. The
system will restart and check the operating
conditions again when the vehicle moves off.

If you install a front bench seat as
an accessory, it it must be fitted with
approved seat belts.
Fastening
Pull the strap in front of you with an even
movement, ensuring that it does not twist.
Engage the tongue in its buckle.
Check that the seat belt is fastened securely
and that the automatic locking system is
operating correctly by pulling the strap
rapidly.
unfastening
Press the red button on the buckle, the
seat belt reels in automatically but you are
advised to guide it.
As a safety measure, these operations
should not be carried out while the
vehicle is moving.
Seat belts not fastened
warning lamp
If the driver's seat belt is unfastened,
START mode of Stop & Start will not be
invoked. Engine restarting is only possible
with the ignition key. When the vehicle is started, this warning
lamp comes on, accompanied by an
increasing audible signal, if the driver and/
or the front passenger has not fastened their
seat belt.
The alert operates both for versions with
an individual passenger front seat and for
versions with a 2-seat front bench seat.
The driver's seat is fitted with a pyrotechnic
pretensioner and a force limiter.
On versions with a passenger's front airbag,
the passenger's seat is also fitted with a
pyrotechnic pretensioner and a force limiter.
The front bench seat is fitted with two seat
belts.
Height adjustment
For the driver or outer passenger seat,
squeeze the control at the adjustable top
mounting, slide the assembly, then release
at the desired position to lock it.
The height of the seat belt for the centre
seat cannot be adjusted.
Seat belts

119
rEAr SEAt BELt S
The rear seats/bench seats are fitted with
three-point seat belts and inertia reels.
The centre seat has a seat belt guide and
inertia reel, solid with the seat back.
A carrier is provided at each outer seat to
allow the seat belt buckle to be secured
when not in use.
Good practice
The driver must ensure that passengers use
the seat belts correctly and that they are all
strapped in securely before moving off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel
which automatically adjusts the length of the
strap to your size.
Do not use accessories (clothes pegs, clips,
safety pins, etc.) which allow the seat belt
straps to fit loosely.
You can unfasten the seat belt by pressing
the red button on the buckle. Guide the seat
belt after unfastening.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt has
reeled in correctly and that the buckle is
ready to accommodate the tongue.
The airbag warning lamp also
comes on if the pretensioners are
deployed. Contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
In the event of an impact
Only for the front seats, and depending on
the nature and seriousness of the impact,
the pretensioning device may be deployed
before and independently of inflation of the
airbags. It instantly tightens the seat belts
against the body of the occupants.
Deployment of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt against the body of the occupants.
The pyrotechnic pretensioners are active
when the ignition is switched on and the
seat belt fastened.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in the
event of a collision or emergency braking or
if the vehicle rolls over.

GEnErAL POI nt S O n AI r BAGS
The airbags have been designed to optimise
the safety of the occupants in the event of
a serious collision; they work in conjunction
with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, electronic
detectors record and analyse any abrupt
deceleration of the vehicle:
-

in the event of a serious collision, the

airbags are deployed instantly and
contribute towards better protection of
occupants of the vehicle; immediately
after the impact, the airbags rapidly
deflate so as to not hinder visibility or
the possible exit by the occupants,
-

in the event of a less serious impact,

an impact to the rear and in certain
conditions of rollover, the airbags are not deployed; the seat belts alone contribute
towards providing protection in these
situations.
Airbags only operate when the ignition is
switched on.Front airbags
These are fitted in the centre of the steering
wheel for the driver and in the dashboard for
the front passengers. They are deployed,
except the passenger's airbag if it has been
deactivated.
Deployment of the airbags is
accompanied by a slight discharge
of smoke and a noise, resulting from the
activation of the pyrotechnic charge included
in the system.
This smoke is not harmful but may be an
irritant to sensitive persons.
The noise of the detonation may result in a
slight loss of hearing for a short time. Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
contact a CITROËN dealer to
have the system checked.

deactivating the passenger's front
airbag
When OFF is selected, the passenger's front
airbag will not be triggered in the event of an
impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
select
ON to re-activate the airbag and thus
ensure the safety of your front passengers in
the event of an impact.Lateral airbags and curtain airbags
If your vehicle is fitted with lateral airbags,
these are fitted to the front seat backs on
the door side.
The curtain airbags are fitted to the door
pillars and the upper part of the passenger
compartment, in the roof over the front cab
seats.
They inflate between the occupant and the
glazed area.
They are deployed independently of each
other depending on which side the collision
occurs.
To ensure the safety of your child, it is
essential to deactivate the passenger's
front airbag when you install a rearward
facing child seat on the front passenger
seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being
killed or seriously injured if the airbag were
to inflate.
If your vehicle's front passenger airbag
cannot be deactivated: you must not install a
rearward facing child seat.
