"AUTO m o de". Check the cleanliness of the camera lens
regularly.
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.
AUTO mode
This mode is activated by default. Using sensors in the rear bumper, the
automatic view changes from a rear view to a
view from above, as an obstacle is approached
at the level of the red line (less than 30
cm)
during a manoeuvre.
Standard view
The area behind the vehicle is displayed on the
screen.
The blue lines represent the width of your
vehicle with the mirrors unfolded; the direction
changes with the position of the steering wheel.
The red line represents a distance of 30
cm
from the rear bumper, the two blue lines 1
m
and 2
m respectively.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.

155
Zoom view
Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are.
It is important to check the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.
The rear parking sensors also provide
information on the vehicle's surroundings.
The camera records the vehicle's surroundings
during the manoeuvre in order to create a
view from above the rear of the vehicle in its
near surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be
manoeuvred around obstacles nearby.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.
180° view
Quick start mode
Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with
parking: it detects a parking space then
operates the steering system to park in this
space.
With a manual gearbox, the driver manages
the accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch.
With an automatic gearbox , the driver
manages the accelerator, brakes and gears.
The 180° view facilitates reversing out of a
parking bay, making it possible to see the
approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out
a complete manoeuvre.
It is made up of 3 areas: left A
, centre B and
right C .
This view is available only from the view
selection menu. This mode displays, as quickly as possible, the
contextual view (left-hand part) and the view
from above the vehicle.
A message is displayed advising you to check
your vehicle's surroundings before starting the
manoeuvre.

Driving

156
The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.This manoeuvring assistance system
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their
vehicle ensuring that the space remains
clear throughout the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors may
not detect small obstacles located in their
blind spots.
The Park Assist system cannot work with
the engine off. C.
Bay parking.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel per forms rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel, do not put your hands
between the spokes of the steering wheel.
Watch out for any object that could block
the manoeuvre (loose clothing, scar ves,
ties, etc.) - Risk of injury!
When the Park Assist is active, it prevents
the Stop & Start going into STOP mode.
In STOP mode, activating Park Assist
restarts the engine. The Park Assist system takes control
of the assistance for a maximum of
4
manoeuvre cycles. The function is
deactivated after these 4 cycles. If you
think that your vehicle is not positioned
correctly, you should then take control of
the steering to carry out the manoeuvre.
During phases of entry into and exit from a
parking space, the system provides visual
and audible information to the driver in order
to make the manoeuvres safe. It may be
necessary to move for wards and backwards
more than once.
The Park Assist system provides assistance for
the following manoeuvres:
B.Exit from a parallel parking space. The sequence of manoeuvres and the
driving instructions are displayed on the
touch screen.
The assistance is activated:
the display of this symbol and
a speed limit indicate that
the steering manoeuvres are
controlled by the system: do not
touch the steering wheel.
The assistance is deactivated:
the display of this symbol
indicates that the steering
manoeuvres are no longer
controlled by the system:
you must take control of the
steering.
You should always check the surroundings
of your vehicle before starting a
manoeuvre.
A.
Entry into a parallel parking space.
Driving

157
The parking sensors function is
not available during parking space
measurement. It intervenes later when
manoeuvring to warn you that your vehicle
is approaching an obstacle: the audible
signal becomes continuous when the
obstacle is less than thirty centimetres
away.
If you have deactivated the parking
sensors, they are automatically
reactivated during assisted parking
manoeuvres.
Activation of Park Assist deactivates the
blind spot monitoring function.

of an obstacle.
The end of the manoeuvre is confirmed by a
message and an audible signal.
The assistance is deactivated: you can take
over control. During parking and exit from parking
manoeuvres, the Top Rear Vision Camera
function may come into operation. This
facilitates monitoring of the surroundings

Rear Vision Camera
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Deactivation
The system is deactivated by pressing the
control.
The system is deactivated automatically:
-

o
n switching off the ignition,
-

i
f the engine stalls,
-

i
f no manoeuvre is per formed within
5
minutes of selecting the type of
manoeuvre,
-

a
fter a prolonged stop of the vehicle during
a manoeuvre, -

i
f the wheel anti-slip regulation (ASR) is
triggered,
-
i
f the speed of the vehicle exceeds the
stated limit,
-
w
hen the driver interrupts movement of the
steering wheel,
-
a
fter 4 manoeuvre cycles,
-
o
n opening the driver's door,
-
i
f one of the front wheels encounters an
obstacle.
Deactivation is confirmed by a message and an
audible signal.
The driver should then take back control of the
vehicle's steering.
If the system is deactivated during a
manoeuvre, the driver must reactivate it to
resume the current measurement.
Deactivation
The system is switched off automatically:
- w hen towing a trailer, connected electrically,
-

i
f the driver's door is opened,

Malfunctions
If a fault occurs, this warning lamp
comes on accompanied by a
message and an audible signal.
In the event of a fault with the
power steering, this warning lamp
flashes in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a message.
If the lateral distance between your vehicle
and the space is too great, the system may
not be able to measure the space.
Any object projecting beyond the dimensions
of the vehicle (e.g. a ladder on the roof or a
towball) will not be taken into account by the
Park Assist system during a manoeuvre.
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered by road dirt,
ice or snow.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.High pressure jet washing
When washing your vehicle, keep the lance at
least 12 inches (30
cm) away from the sensors.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressure in all four
tyres, as soon as the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the 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 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 worsens
road-holding, lengthens braking distances,
causes premature wear of the tyres,
particularly in adverse conditions (heavy
loads, high speeds, long journeys).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
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.
