Operation
The system is activated automatically when the
ignition is switched on.
The electronic stability programme (ESC) must
not have any faults.
Between 37 and 99 mph (60 and 160 km/h), if
the system detects oscillations (snaking) in the
movement of the trailer, it acts on the brakes to
stabilise the trailer and, if necessary, reduces
engine power to slow down the vehicle.
For information on the weights and towed
loads, refer to the "Technical data" section or
the registration certificate for your vehicle.
To ensure complete safety while driving with
a Towbar system , refer to the corresponding
section.
Malfunction
Should a fault occur with the system,
this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, accompanied by
the display of a message and an
audible signal. The trailer stability assist system
offers increased safety in normal
driving conditions, provided that the
recommendations on towing a trailer are
obser ved. It must not encourage the driver
to take additional risks, such as towing
a trailer in adverse operating conditions
(overloading, failure to obser ve the trailer
nose weight, worn or under-inflated tyres,
faulty braking system, etc.) or driving at
too high a speed.
In certain cases, the swaying of the trailer
may not be detected by the ESC system,
particularly with a light trailer.
When driving on slippery or poor sur faces,
the system may not be able to prevent
sudden swaying of the trailer.
Advanced Grip Control
Special patented traction control system which
improves driveability on snow, mud and sand.
This system, the operation of which has been
optimised for each situation, allows you to
manoeuvre in most conditions of poor grip
(encountered during passenger vehicle use).
Operating modes
The correction is signalled by the
flashing of this warning lamp in the
instrument panel and illumination of
the brake lamps.
If you continue to tow a trailer, reduce your
speed and drive carefully!
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked. Associated with all-seasons Peak Mountain
Snow Flake tyres, this system offers a
compromise between safety, grip and
driveability.
The accelerator pedal should be pressed
sufficiently to allow the system to use the power
of the engine. Operation at high engine speeds
is completely normal.
A five-position selector knob allows you to
choose the setting best suited to the driving
conditions encountered.
An indicator lamp associated with each mode
comes on, accompanied by the display of a
message to confirm your choice.

Safety
163
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
-
f
ixed , immediately, when being overtaken,
-
f
lashing , after a delay of about one second,
when overtaking a vehicle slowly, and when
the direction indicator is used.
This system is designed to improve safety
when driving and is in no circumstances
a substitute for the use of the interior
rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is
the driver's responsibility to constantly
check the traffic, to assess the relative
distances and speeds of other vehicles
and to anticipate their movements before
deciding whether to change lane. The alert is given by a warning lamp which
comes on in the door mirror on the side in
question as soon as a vehicle – car, lorry,
bicycle – is detected and the following
conditions are fulfilled:
-
a
ll the vehicles must be moving in the same
direction and in adjacent lanes,
-
t
he speed of the vehicle must be between 7
and 87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
-
y
ou overtake a vehicle with a speed
difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),
-
a v
ehicle overtakes you with a speed
difference of less than 16 mph (25 km/h),
- t he traffic must be flowing normally,
-
i
n the case of an overtaking manoeuvre,
if this is prolonged and the vehicle being
overtaken returns to the blind spot,
-
y
ou are driving on a straight or slightly
curved road,
-
y

caravan, etc.
spot angle of their vehicle (areas hidden from
the driver's field of vision), as soon as this
presents a potential danger.
No alert will be given in the following situations:
-
i
n the presence of non-moving objects
(parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps,
road signs, etc.),
-
w
ith vehicles moving in the opposite
direction,
-
d

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,
-
a
dverse weather conditions (heavy rain,
thick fog, falling snow),
-
nois
e interference from noisy vehicles and
machinery (lorries, pneumatic drills, etc.).

Remove the quickly detachable towball
when not towing a trailer.
Energy economy mode
System which manages the duration of use of
certain functions to conser ve a sufficient level
of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use
functions such as the audio and telematics
system, windscreen wipers, dipped beam
headlamps,
courtesy lamps, etc. for a
maximum combined duration of about forty
minutes. For more information about the Engine
technical data and towed loads
and
particularly the maximum load applied
on the towing device, refer to the
corresponding section. If a telephone call is being made at this
time, it will be maintained for around
10 minutes with the Bluetooth hands-free
system of your audio system.
Exiting the mode
These functions will be automatically restored
the next time the vehicle is used.
In order to restore the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let it run:
-
f
or less than ten minutes, to use the
equipment for approximately five minutes,
-
f
or more than ten minutes, to use the
equipment for up to approximately thirty
minutes.
Let the engine run for the duration specified to
ensure that the battery charge is sufficient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously restart the
engine in order to charge the battery.
A flat battery prevents the engine from
starting.
For more information on the 12
V batter y,
refer to the corresponding section.
Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as air conditioning,
heated rear screen, etc.
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.
Roof bars/Roof rack
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as
close as possible to the roof.
Secure the load firmly.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds
and its stability may be affected.
Regularly check the security and tight
fastening of the roof bars and racks, at
least before each trip.
Remove the roof bars once they are no
longer needed.
Switching to this mode
A message appears in the instrument panel
screen indicating that the vehicle has switched
to economy mode and the active functions are
put on standby.
