Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system permits the
optimum braking pressure to be reached
more quickly, therefore reducing the stopping
distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. The effect of this is
a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and
an increase in braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction
Control) optimises traction in order to limit
wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that required by
the driver, the DSC monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
Intelligent traction control
If your vehicle has this system, it features a
system to help driving on snow: intelligent
traction control.
This system detects situations of difficult
sur face grip that could make it difficult to move
off or make progress on deep fresh snow or
compacted snow.
In these situations, the intelligent traction
control limits the amount of wheel spin to
provide the best traction and trajectory control
for your vehicle.
The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on sur faces offering low
levels of grip.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD)
The fixed illumination of this warning
lamp indicates that there is a fault
with the ABS. If this warning lamp comes on, in
conjunction with the STOP
and
ABS warning lamps, an audible
signal and a message, it means
that the electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD) is defective.
You must stop as soon as it is
safe to do so.
In both cases, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop as soon as
possible.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.
If you need to brake in an emergency,
press the brake pedal ver y firmly and
keep the pressure applied.
After an impact, have the system checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

F With the ignition off, insert the key in the
passenger airbag deactivation switch.
F

T
urn it to the OFF position.
F

R
emove the key, leaving the switch in this
position.
When the ignition is switched on, this
warning lamp comes on in the seat
belt warning display screen. It stays on
while the airbag is deactivated. To ensure the safety of your child,
the passenger front airbag must be
deactivated when you install a rear ward
facing child seat on the front passenger
seat.
Other wise, there is a risk of serious or
fatal injury to the child if the airbag is
deployed.
Reactivation
When you remove the child seat, with the
ignition off
, turn the switch to the ON position
to reactivate the airbag and so assure the
safety of your front passenger(s) in the event of
an impact.
When the ignition is switched on,
this warning lamp comes on in the
seat belt warning display screen for
approximately one minute to signal
that the front airbag is activated.
Deactivation
Safety

182
When leaving the vehicle, remove the key
and lock the doors.
As a safety measure (children on board),
never leave the vehicle without your
remote control with you, even for a short
period.
Switching off the engine leads to a loss of
braking assistance.
Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key,
which would weigh down on its blade
in the ignition switch and could cause a
malfunction.
Key left in the ignition
When opening the driver's door, an alert
message is displayed, accompanied by an
audible signal, to remind you that the key
is still in the ignition switch at
position 1

(Stop).
If the key has been left in the ignition
switch at position 2


(Ignition on), the
ignition will be switched off automatically
after one hour.
To switch the ignition back on, turn the key
to position 1


(Stop), then back to
position 2


(Ignition on) .

Anti-theft protection
Electronic engine immobiliser
The keys contain an electronic chip which has
a secret code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised in order for
starting to be possible.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks the
engine management system a few minutes
after the ignition is switched off, and prevents
starting of the engine by anyone who does not
have the key.
In the event of a malfunction, you are informed
by a message in the instrument panel screen.
If this happens, your vehicle will not start;
contact a CITROËN dealer if required.For reasons of safety and theft protection,
do not leave your electronic key in the
vehicle, even when you are close to it.
It is recommended that you keep it on your
person.
Parking brake
Application
F With your foot on the brake pedal, pull the parking brake lever up to immobilise your
vehicle.
Release on level ground
When the vehicle is being driven, this
warning lamp coming on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message,
indicates that the parking brake is still
applied or has not been fully released.
When parking on a slope, or on a steep
slope with a laden vehicle, turn the wheels
against the kerb then apply the parking
brake.
Pressing the brake pedal facilitates the
application and release of the manual
parking brake.
With a manual gearbox, engage a gear
then switch off the ignition.
With an automatic gearbox, put the gear
selector into P then switch off the ignition.
With an electronic gearbox, put the gear
selector into position A then switch off the
ignition.

the engine to be started.
If position N is selected inadvertently while
driving, allow the engine to return to idle,
then select position D to accelerate.
If position R

engine is running at idle, with the brakes
released, the vehicle moves even without
the accelerator being depressed.
Never leave children in the vehicle
unsupervised.
As a safety measure, never leave the
vehicle without taking your key or remote
control with you, even for a short time.

release the brake pedal.
In all circumstances, ensure that the
selector is in position P before leaving
your vehicle.Malfunction
When the ignition is on, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen to indicate a
gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel a
substantial jolt when changing from P to R and
from N to R. This will not cause any damage to
the gearbox.
Do not exceed around 60
mph (100 km/h), local
speed restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:
-

i
f you depress the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time (braking
or acceleration must be done only with
the right foot),
-

i
f you force the selector from position P
to another position when the battery is
flat. To reduce fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffic jam, etc.),
position the selector to N and apply the
parking brake.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox,
never try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.

mode, without any inter vention on the part
of the driver. It continuously selects the most
suitable gear according to the following
parameters:

for example when overtaking
another vehicle, depress the
accelerator pedal firmly past the
point of resistance.
Temporary manual control of
gear changes
If the Foot on brake warning
lamp comes on the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
"Foot on brake", depress the
brake pedal firmly. You can temporarily
take over control of gear
changes using the " +" and " -" steering mounted
controls. If the engine speed allows, the gear
change is carried out.
This function allows you to anticipate certain
situations, such as overtaking another vehicle
or approaching a bend in the road.
After a few moments with no action on the
control paddles, the gearbox returns to
automatic operation.

To return to the programmed
speed, simply release the
accelerator pedal until the set
speed limit has been reached
again.
Adjusting the limit speed

limit recognition
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Temporarily exceeding the
speed setting
F Press firmly on the accelerator pedal,
going beyond the point of resistance , to
exceed the programmed speed limit.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the displayed programmed speed flashes.
An audible signal accompanies the flashing
of the programmed speed when exceeding
