The adaptive cruise control operates by
day and night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
The system does not act on the braking
system, but works only with engine
braking.
The regulation range is limited: there will
no longer be any adjustment of speed if
the difference between the programmed
speed setting and the speed of the vehicle
in front becomes too high.
If the difference between the programmed
speed setting and the speed of the
vehicle in front is too great, the speed
cannot be adjusted: the cruise control is
automatically deactivated.Collision Risk Alert and
Active Safety Brake
Conditions for operation
The Collision Risk Alert system only operates:
- w ith a vehicle pointing in the same direction,
moving or stationary,
-
w
ith pedestrians,
-
a
bove 4 mph (7 km/h) (and deactivates at
3
mph (5 km/h)).
The Active Safety Brake system only operates:
-
b
etween 3 and 87 mph (5 and 140 km/h), in
the case of a moving vehicle,
-
a
t a speed below 50 mph (80 km/h), in the
case of a stationary vehicle,
-
a
t a speed below 37 mph (60 km/h), in the
case of a pedestrian,
-
i
f the passenger seat belts are fastened,
-
i
f the vehicle is not accelerating sharply,
-
i
f the vehicle is not in a tight corner.
The Active Safety Brake system does not
operate:
-
i
f the front bumper is damaged,
-
i
f the system has been triggered in the last
10
seconds,
-
i
f the electronic stability control system has
a fault.
The Collision Risk Aler t system allows the
driver to be warned that their vehicle is at
risk of collision with the vehicle in front or a
pedestrian in their traffic lane.
The Active Safety Brake system inter venes
following the aler t if the driver does not
react quickly enough and does not operate
the vehicle's brakes.
If the driver fails to act, it contributes
towards avoiding a collision or limiting
its severity by reducing the speed of your
vehicle.
These systems use a radar located in the
front bumper and a camera at the top of the
windscreen.

Passenger compartment filter
Refer to the manufacturer's
ser vice schedule for details of
the replacement inter val for this
component.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g. city driving), replace it twice as often if
necessary .
A clogged passenger compartment
filter may have an adverse effect on
the per formance of the air conditioning
system and generate undesirable odours.
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer’s
ser vice schedule for details of
the replacement inter val for this
component.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filter is indicated by the temporary
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a message about
the risk of the filter clogging up. As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a speed
of at least 37
mph (60 km/h) until the
warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates
a low Diesel additive level.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell, which
is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does not
affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the
environment.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Electronic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Parking brakeIf excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
Checking this system must be done by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Brake padsBrake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle
services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.

Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent quality
and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units
as important as those in the braking
system, CITROËN selects and offers very
specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi
engines)System SCR
By using a fluid called AdBlue® containing
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85%
of nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue
® is contained in
a special tank holding about
22
litres.
Its capacity allows a driving range of around
6,000-9,000
miles (10,000-15,000
km). An
alert system is triggered automatically when
the remaining range reaches 1,500
miles
(2,400
km), i.e. once the reser ve level has been
reached.
Several alerts are triggered successively during
the remaining 1,500
miles (2,400 km) before
the tank is empty.
If the estimated distance travelled by your
vehicle between two ser vices is greater than
12,000
miles (20,000
km), it will be necessary
to top up the AdBlue.
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the new Euro 6
standard,
without adversely affecting the performance or
fuel consumption of Diesel engines, CITROËN
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a particle filter (DPF)
for the treatment of exhaust gases.
