Indicators
Service indicator
The servicing information is expressed in terms 
of distance (miles or kilometres) and time 
(months or days).
The alert is given at whichever of these two 
terms is reached first.
The servicing information is displayed in the 
instrument panel. Depending on the version of 
the vehicle:
–
 
The distance recorder display line indicates 
the distance remaining before the next service 
is due, or the distance travelled since it was due 
preceded by the "-" sign.
–
 
An alert message indicates the distance 
remaining, as well as the period before the next 
service is due or how long it is overdue.
The value indicated is calculated  according to the distance covered and 
the time elapsed since the last service.
The alert may also be triggered close to a 
due date.
Service spannerOn temporarily when the ignition is 
switched on.
Between 620 and 1,860 miles (1,000 and 3,000

► Keep this button 1 pulled across to remove 
the key 2 from the device.
If the alarm is activated, the audible 
signal triggered on opening a door with 
the key (integral with the remote control) will 
stop when the ignition is switched on.
Once the built-in key is ejected, always 
keep it with you to be able to carry out 
the corresponding back-up procedures.
"Keyless Entry and Start" on your 
person
 
 
It allows the unlocking, locking and starting of the 
vehicle, while carrying the remote control on your 
person in the recognition zone " A".
In the ignition on (accessories) position, 
with the "START/STOP" button, the 
hands-free function is deactivated and it is 
impossible to open the doors.
For more information on  Starting/switching 
off the engine  and in particular the "ignition 
on" position, refer to the corresponding 
section.
Locating the vehicle
This function helps you to spot your vehicle from 
a distance, with the vehicle locked:
–
 
The direction indicators flash for approximately 
10 seconds.
–
 
The courtesy lamps come on.
► Press this button.  
Remote operation of lighting
A short press on this button switches on 
the lighting remotely (lighting of 
sidelamps, dipped beam headlamps and number 
plate lamps).
A second press on the button before the end of 
the timed period cancels the remote lighting.
Advice
Remote control
The remote control is a sensitive, high-
frequency device; avoid handling it in your 
pocket, due to the risk of unintentionally 
unlocking the vehicle.
Avoid pressing the remote control buttons 
while out of range of the vehicle, due to 
the risk of rendering the remote control 
inoperative. It would then be necessary to 
reset it.
The remote control does not work
  when the 
key is in the ignition switch, even when the 
ignition is switched off.
Anti-theft protection
Do not modify the electronic vehicle 
immobiliser, as this might result in 
malfunctions.
For vehicles with a key ignition switch, 
remember to remove the key and turn the 
steering wheel to engage the steering lock.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked could make 
it more difficult for the emergency services 
to enter the passenger compartment in an 
emergency.
As a safety precaution, remove the key from 
the ignition or take the electronic key with you 
when leaving the vehicle, even for a short 
time.

home lighting duration in the  Driving/Vehicle 
touch screen menu.
Manual 
 
► With the ignition off, pull the lighting control 
stalk toward you ("headlamp flash") to activate/
deactivate the function.
Manual guide-me-home lighting goes off 
automatically after a period of time.
Welcome lighting
With the "Automatic headlamp illumination" 
function activated, in poor light, the sidelamps 
and dipped beam headlamps come on 
automatically when the vehicle is unlocked.
Activation, deactivation and the  duration of the exterior welcome 
lighting are set in the  Driving/Vehicle touch 
screen menu.
Automatic lighting  systems - General 
recommendations
The automatic lighting systems use a detection 
camera, located at the top of the windscreen.
Operating limits
The system may be disrupted or not work 
correctly:
–
 
When visibility conditions are poor 
(e.g.
  snowfall, heavy rain).
–
 
If the windscreen is dirty
 , misted-up or 
masked (e.g.
  sticker) in front of the camera.
–
 
If the vehicle is facing highly reflective signs 
or safety barrier reflectors.
The system is not able to detect:
–
 
Road users that do not have their own 
lighting, such as pedestrians.
–
 
V
ehicles with hidden lighting (e.g.   travelling 
behind a safety barrier on the motorway).
–
 
V
ehicles at the top or bottom of a steep 
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Maintenance
Clean the windscreen regularly, 
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal surface 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 
obstruct the camera.
Automatic headlamp  dipping
For more information, refer to the 
General recommendations for 
automatic lighting systems.
With the ring of the lighting control stalk
  in the 
"AUTO" position and the function activated on 
the touch screen, this system automatically 
switches between dipped and main beam 
headlamps, according to lighting and traffic 
conditions, using a camera located at the top of 
the windscreen.
 
    

87
Lighting and visibility
4This system is a driving aid.The driver remains responsible for 
the vehicle's lighting, its correct use in the 
prevailing light, visibility and traffic conditions, 
and for compliance with driving and vehicle 
regulations.
The system becomes operational when  the vehicle exceeds 16 mph (25 km/h).
When the speed falls below 9 mph (15 km/h), 
the function is no longer operational.
Activation/Deactivation
The settings are changed via the  Driving/Vehicle touch screen 
menu.
When deactivated, the lighting system changes 
to "automatic illumination of headlamps" mode.
The state of the system is stored when the 
ignition is switched off.
Operation
If the ambient light level is very low and traffic 
conditions permit:
– The main beam headla mps 
come on automatically. These 
indicator lamps light up on the instrument panel.
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or the 
traffic conditions do not allow the main beam 
headlamps to be lit:
– The dipped beam head lamps 
remain lit. These indicator lamps 
light up on the instrument panel.
The function is deactivated if the foglamps 
are switched on or if the system detects poor 
visibility conditions (e.g.
  fog, heavy rain, 
snowfall).
When the foglamps are switched off or when the 
visibility conditions become favourable again, the 
function is automatically reactivated.
This indicator lamp goes out when the  function is deactivated.
Pause
If the situation requires a change of headlamp 
beam, the driver can take over at any time.
► A "headlamp flash" pauses the 
function and the lighting system switches 
to "automatic illumination of lamps" mode:
–
 
If the "AUT
 O" and "Dipped beam" indicator 
lamps were on, the system changes to main 
beam.
–
 
If the "AUT
 O" and "Main beam" 
indicator
  lamps were on, the system changes to 
dipped beam.
►
 
T
o reactivate the function, once again switch 
the headlamps manually between dipped and 
main beam.
The system may be disrupted or not work  correctly:
–
 
When visibility conditions are poor 
(snowfall, heavy rain, etc.).
– If the windscreen in front of the camera is 
dirty , misted or obscured (for example, by a 
sticker).
–
 
If the vehicle is facing highly reflective 
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it 
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
–
 
Road users that do not have their own 
lighting, such as pedestrians.
–
 
V
 ehicles whose lighting is obscured (for 
example, vehicles driving behind a safety 
barrier on a motorway).
–
 
V
 ehicles at the top or bottom of a steep 
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Clean the windscreen regularly, 
particularly the area in front of the 
camera.
The internal surface 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 
obstruct the detection camera.

Driving
Noise (Electric)
On the outside
Due to the vehicle’s quiet operation when 
driving, the driver must pay particular attention.
When manoeuvring, the driver must always 
check the vehicle's immediate surroundings.
At speeds of up to 19 mph (30 km/h), the 
pedestrian horn warns other road users of the 
vehicle’s presence.
Cooling the traction battery
The cooling fan comes on during 
charging to cool the on-board charger and the 
traction battery.
On the inside
During use, you may hear certain perfectly 
normal noises specific to electric vehicles, such 
as:
–
 
T
 raction battery relay when starting.
–
 
V
 acuum pump when braking.
–
 
V
 ehicle tyres or aerodynamics when driving.
–
 
Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.
Towing
Driving with a trailer places greater 
demands on the towing vehicle and 
particular care must be taken.
Do not exceed the maximum towable 
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by 
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower 
air density at high altitudes decreases engine 
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the 
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles 
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the 
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the 
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the 
heaviest items are as close as possible to the 
axle and the nose weight (at the point where it 
joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum 
permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing 
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the 
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer 
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine CITROËN towing device is 
used, the rear parking sensors will be 
deactivated automatically to avoid the audible 
signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant 
temperature to increase. The maximum towable 
load depends on the gradient and the exterior 
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not 
increase with engine speed.
►
 
Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to 
limit the amount of heating produced.
►
 
Pay constant attention to the coolant 
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP 
warning lamp come on, stop the 
vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as 
possible.
Brakes
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit 
the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances 
are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more 
susceptible to wind when towing.
