Restore – RES
To restore the vehicle's programmed speed
(for example after pressing the brake or clutch
pedal):The indicator comes on and the
cruise control function is restored.
F

G
o back gradually to the selected speed
and press RES .
Cancelling the programmed
speed
When the vehicle stops, after the ignition is
switched off, the system no longer stores any
speeds.
Malfunction
In the event of a fault, the system is
s witched off and the indicator goes
out.
Have it checked by a
CITROËN dealer or by
a


qualified workshop. Use the cruise control only when traffic
conditions allow you to travel at a
constant
speed for a certain period of time whilst
keeping a sufficiently safe distance from
other vehicles.
Do not activate the cruise control in urban
areas, in heavy traffic, on winding or steep
roads, on slippery or flooded roads, or in
conditions of poor visibility (heavy rain,
fog, falling snow, etc.).
In some circumstances, it may not
be possible to maintain or reach the
programmed speed: towing, vehicle
heavily loaded, steep climb, etc.
The use of mats not approved by
CITROËN may impair the operation of the
cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is positioned
c o r r e c t l y,
-
d
o not fit one mat on top of another.
Lane Departure Warning
System
System which detects the involuntary crossing
of longitudinal traffic lane markings on the
ground (solid or broken line).
The lane departure warning system
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
A camera fitted at the top centre of the
windscreen monitors the road and detects lane
markings and the position of the vehicle with
respect to them.
With the vehicle running at a
speed higher than
37
mph (60 km/h), it triggers a warning if the
vehicle drifts off line.
This system is particularly useful on motor ways
and main roads.

Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.The snow chains must be fitted only to the
driving wheels. They must never be fitted
to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in
your country on the use of snow chains
and the maximum authorised speed.
Installation tips
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey,
stop the vehicle on a flat sur face on the side
of the road.
F

A
pply the parking brake and if necessary
put wheel chocks against the wheels to
prevent your vehicle from sliding.
F

F
it the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
F

M
ove off gently and drive for a few seconds,
without exceeding 30
mph (50 km/h).
F

S
top your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the
road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with
alloy wheels, check that no part of the
chain or its fixtures is in contact with the
wheel rim.
It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a
level and dry sur face. Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheels installed on your vehicle:

To w i n g
General recommendations
Obser ve the legislation in force in your
c o u nt r y.
Ensure that the weight of the towing
vehicle is higher than that of the towed
vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of
the towed vehicle and must have a valid
driving licence.
When towing a
vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground, always use an approved
towbar; rope and straps are prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When the vehicle is towed with its engine
off, there is no longer braking and steering
assistance.
In the following cases, you must always
call on a
professional recovery ser vice:
-

v
ehicle broken down on a motor way or
main road,
-
f

our-wheel drive vehicle,
-

w
hen it is not possible to put the
gearbox into neutral, unlock the
steering, or release the parking brake,
-

t
owing with only two wheels on the
ground,
-

w
here there is no approved towbar
available.
The charging operation must be carried
out in a

ventilated area away from naked
flames or any possible sources of sparks
to eliminate the risk of explosion and fire.
Do not try to charge a

frozen battery: it
must first be thawed out to avoid the risk
of explosion. If the battery has frozen,
before charging it have it checked by
a

specialist who will verify that the internal
components have not been damaged and
that the case is not cracked, which could
mean that there is a

risk of a

leak of toxic
and corrosive acid.
Proceed with a

slow charge at low current
for a

maximum of about 24

hours to avoid
damaging the battery.

C
heck the condition of the terminals and
clamps. If they are covered with sulphate
(whitish or greenish deposits), disconnect
them and clean them all.
After refitting of the battery by a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop, the Stop
& Start system will only be active after
a


continuous period of immobilisation
of the vehicle, a period which depends
on the climatic conditions and the state
of charge of the battery (up to about
8


h o u r s).
The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a
12 V lead-acid battery with
special technology and specification;
the involvement of a
CITROËN dealer or
a
qualified workshop is essential when
replacing or disconnecting the battery.

Engine technical data and
towed loads
Engines
The engine characteristics are given in the
vehicle's registration document, as well as in
sales brochures.The maximum power corresponds to the
value type-approved on a
test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Weights and towed loads
The maximum weights and towed loads for
your vehicle are given in the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also given on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop. The GTW and towed load values indicated are
valid up to a
maximum altitude of 1,000 metres.
The towed load value must be reduced by 10%
for each additional 1,000 metres of altitude.
The maximum authorised nose weight
corresponds to the weight permitted on the
towbar (can be dismantled with or without
a

tool).
GT W: Gross train weight.
High ambient temperatures may result
in a reduction in the per formance of
the vehicle to protect the engine. If the
ambient temperature is above 37°C, limit
the towed load.
Towing with a towing vehicle which is only
slightly laden may negatively affect its
handling.
Towing a
trailer increases the braking
distance.
When towing, never exceed the speed
of 62
mph (100 km/h) (obser ve the local
legislation in force). If the exterior temperature is high, it is
recommended that the engine be allowed
to idle for 1
to 2 minutes after the vehicle
comes to a stop, to facilitate its cooling.

Weights and towed
loads (kg)
With load transfer, the braked trailer weight can
be increased, on condition that the equivalent
of this load is removed from the vehicle so that
the GTW is not exceeded. Warning: towing with
a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an
adverse effect on its road holding.
The kerb weight is equal to the weight without
load + driver (75
kg) + fuel tank filled to 90%.
Hydraulic system
These precautions are mandator y for any
work on the hydraulic system. Before towing a trailer, check that:
-
t
he nose weight on the towbar ball does
not exceed the value (S) indicated on the
trailer's weight plate,
-
t
he maximum trailer weight is less than
the value indicated on the trailer's weight
plate and the Gross Vehicle Weight (GV W)
does not exceed the value indicated on the
vehicle's weight plate.
-
i
n the case of a self-supporting trailer,
the Gross Train Weight (GTW) must not
exceed the value indicated on the vehicle's
weight plate.
