Operating limits
- The system may suggest an inappropriate parking space (parking prohibited, work
in progress with damaged road sur face,
location alongside a ditch, etc.).
-
T
he system may indicate that a space
was found but will not offer it because of
a fixed obstacle on the opposite side of
the manoeuvre which would not allow the
vehicle to follow a trajectory required for
parking.
-
T
he system is not designed for per forming
the parking manoeuvre on a sharp curve.
-
T
he system does not detect spaces that are
much larger than the vehicle itself or that
are delimited by obstacles that are too low
(pavements, studs, etc.) or too thin (trees,
posts, wire fences, etc.).
-
C
ertain obstacles located in the sensors’
blind spots may not be detected or no
longer be detected during the manoeuvre.
-
C
ertain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.

A f
ront or rear impact to the vehicle can
upset the sensor settings which is not
always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be falsified. The vehicle's sensors and camera(s) may be
impaired by:
-
a
ccumulated snow or fallen leaves on the
road,

Charging the battery using
a battery charger
For optimum ser vice life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances it may be necessary to
charge the battery:
-
i
f you only use your vehicle for short
journeys,
-
i
f the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If you plan to charge your vehicle's battery
yourself, use only a charger compatible
with lead-acid batteries with a nominal
voltage of 12
V.
Follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
F
S
witch off the ignition.
F
S
witch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, lamps, wipers, etc.). F
S
witch off the charger B before connecting
the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any
dangerous sparks.
F
E
nsure that the charger cables are in good
condition.
F
R
aise the plastic cover, if your vehicle has
one, on the (+) terminal.
F
C
onnect the cables of charger B as follows:
-
t
he positive (+) red cable to the (+)
terminal of battery A ,
-
t
he negative (-) black cable to earth point
C on the vehicle.
F
A
t the end of the charging operation, switch
off charger B before disconnecting the
cables from battery A . Never try to charge a frozen battery – risk
of explosion!
If the battery has frozen, have it checked
by a CITROËN dealer or by a qualified
workshop who will check that the internal
components have not been damaged and
that the container has not cracked, which
would mean a risk of toxic and corrosive
acid leaking.
Disconnecting the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state
of charge for starting the engine, it is
recommended that the battery be disconnected
if the vehicle is taken out of ser vice for a long
period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
F
c
lose all of the accesses (doors, tailgate,
windows, roof), If this label is present, it is essential to
use only a 12
V charger to avoid causing
irreversible damage to the electrical
components related to the Stop & Start
system.
