(default setting).
" Fast ": provides strong and effective air flow.
This setting is associated with AUTO mode
only. However, on deactivation of AUTO mode,
the last selected setting remains.
Changing the setting does not reactivate AUTO
mode if deactivated.
In cold weather with the engine cold, the
air flow is increased gradually until the
comfort setting has been reached, in order
to limit the delivery of cold air into the
passenger compartment.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than the comfort setting requested, there
is no need to alter the value displayed in
order to reach more quickly the required
level of comfort. The system automatically

the right to carry out updates to the
vehicle's on-board telematic system.
If the indicator lamp lights up continuously red:
there is a

system fault.
If the indicator lamp flashes red: replace the
back-up battery.
In either case, emergency and assistance calls
may not function.
Contact a

qualified repairer as soon as
possible. The list of countries covered and of Telematic
ser vices is available from dealers or on the
website for your country.
You can deactivate geolocation by

Safety

151
When the cruise control is switched on, be
careful if you maintain the pressure on one
of the programmed speed modification
buttons: this may result in a very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
When descending a


steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
On steep climbs or when towing, the
programmed speed may not be reached
or maintained.
The use of mats not approved by
CITROËN may inter fere with the operation
of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-

e
nsure that mats are secured correctly,
-

n
ever fit one mat on top of another.Adaptive cruise control
The system allows the speed of
your vehicle to be maintained at the
setting you have made, and also to
respect the inter-vehicle time that
you have selected between your
vehicle and the one in front, when
the situation permits it.
Switching between the
types of cruise control
The choice between "adaptive" and "standard"
cruise control is made in the Driving menu.
F

T
urn the cruise control wheel to
the "CRUISE" position.
F

I
n the Driving menu, select the Driving
functions tab and then Active cruise
control to activate or deactivate adaptive
cruise control.
For more information on the Cruise
control , refer to the corresponding
section.
Principles of operation
Using radar with a range of about 100 metres,
l ocated at the front of the vehicle, this system
detects a
vehicle travelling in front of your
vehicle.
It automatically adapts the speed of your
vehicle to that of the vehicle in front.
If the vehicle in front is travelling more slowly,
the system progressively reduces the speed of
your vehicle using just engine braking (as if the
driver had pressed the " -" b u t to n).
If your vehicle is too close to the vehicle in
front or is approaching it too quickly, adaptive
cruise control is automatically deactivated.
The driver is then alerted by an audible signal
accompanied by a


message.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the adaptive cruise control gradually
accelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed speed.
If the driver operates the direction indicator to
the left (left-hand drive) or to the right (right-
hand drive), to overtake a
slower vehicle, the
adaptive cruise control allows your vehicle to
temporarily approach the vehicle in front to
assist the overtaking manoeuvre, though never
exceeding the programmed speed.
The adaptive cruise control operates
by day and at night, in fog or moderate
rainfall.
