Blind Spot Detection
This system warns the driver of the presence
of another vehicle in the blind spots of their
vehicle (areas hidden from the driver's field
of vision), as soon as this presents a potential
danger.
A fixed warning lamp appears in the door mirror
on the side in question:
-
i
mmediately, when being overtaken,
-
a
fter a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a
vehicle slowly. This driving aid 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 predict their movements
before deciding whether to change lane.
This system is a driving aid that cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Activation/Deactivation
The function is activated and
deactivated in the Driving menu of
the touch screen.
When the function is activated,
this indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel.
The state of the system stays in memory when
switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically deactivated
when towing with a
towing device
approved by CITROËN.
Operation
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.
The alert is given by an orange warning lamp
coming on in the relevant door mirror, as soon
as a
vehicle – car, lorry, cycle – is detected.
The following conditions must be met for this:
-
a
ll vehicles are 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 is flowing normally,
-
ov
ertaking a vehicle over a certain period
of time and the vehicle being overtaken
remains in the blind spot,
-
y
ou are driving on a straight or slightly
curved road,
-
y
our vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a
caravan, etc.

Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the
s ystem, this warning lamp flashes
for a
few moments in the instrument
panel, accompanied by the Ser vice
warning lamp coming on and the
display of a
message.
Contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked. The system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather conditions
(rain, hail, etc.).
In particular, driving on a
wet sur face or
the transition from a dry area to a wet area
can cause false alerts (e.g. the presence
of water droplets in the blind spot is
interpreted as a vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow.
Take care not to cover the warning zone in
the door mirrors or the detection zones on
the front and rear bumpers with adhesive
labels or other objects; they may hamper
the correct operation of the system.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, keep the
nozzle at a
minimum distance of 12 inches
(30
cm) from the sensors.
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
riving on a winding road or a sharp corner,
-
w
hen overtaking or being overtaken by
a
very long vehicle (lorry, bus, etc.) which
is both detected in the rear blind spot and
present in the driver's front field of vision,
-
w
hen overtaking quickly,
-
i
n very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in
front and behind are confused with a lorry or
a
stationary object,
-
i
f the Park Assist function is activated.

Active Blind Spot
Monitoring System
(depending on version)
In addition to the fixed warning lamp in the door
mirror on the side in question, a correction of
trajectory will be felt if you cross a lane marking
with the direction indicators on, to help you
avoid a
collision.
Conditions for operation
The following systems must be activated:
- B lind Spot Detection,
-
L
ane Departure Warning System.
The speed of the vehicle must be between
40
and 87 mph (65 and 140 km/h) inclusive.
Fatigue detection system
Take a break as soon as you feel tired or at
l east every two hours.
Depending on version, the function relies either
on the "Driver Attention Warning" system alone
or combined with the "Driver Attention Alert"
system.
These systems cannot in any circumstances
replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver who must remain in control
of their decisions. In no case can these
systems keep the driver awake or prevent
them from falling asleep at the wheel.
It is the driver's responsibility to stop if they
feel tired.
Activation/Deactivation
These functions are activated and
deactivated in the Driving menu of
the touch screen.
The state of the system stays in the memory
when the ignition is switched off.
Driver Attention Warning
The system triggers an alert once it
detects that the driver has not taken
a
break after two hours of driving at
a
speed above 40 mph (65 km/h).This alert is issued via the display of
a
message encouraging you to take a break,
accompanied by an audible signal.
If the driver does not follow this advice, the
alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is
stopped.
The system resets itself if one of the following
conditions is met:
-
e
ngine running, the vehicle has been
stationary for more than 15
minutes,
-
t
he ignition has been switched off for a few
minutes,
-
t
he driver's seat belt is unfastened and their
door is open.
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops
below 40 mph (65 km/h), the system goes
into standby.
The driving time is counted again once the
speed is above 40 mph (65 km/h).
Driver Attention Alert
Depending on version, the "Driver Attention
Warning" may be combined with the "Driver
Attention Alert".

The reversing camera function may be
supplemented with parking sensors.
The reversing camera cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
They are represented by lines marked
"on the ground" and do not allow you to
determine the position of tall obstacles (for
example: other vehicles, etc.) relative to
the vehicle.
Some distortion of the image is normal.
It is normal to have a part of the number
plate showing in the bottom of the screen. The blue lines 1
represent the general direction
of the vehicle (the gap represents the width of
your vehicle except for the door mirrors).
The red line 2 represents a distance of about
30 cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r.
The green lines 3 represent distances of about
one and two metres beyond the edge of your
vehicle's rear bumper.
The turquoise blue curves 4 represent the
maximum turning circle.
Opening the tailgate causes the display to
disappear.
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, do not direct
the lance from less than 30 cm from the
lens of the camera.
Depending on version, the image is displayed
on the touch screen or the instrument panel.
The representation with overlaid lines helps the
manoeuvre.
Vision 360
This system allows the near surroundings of
the vehicle to be viewed in the instrument panel
using cameras.
They are situated at the front and rear of the
vehicle, as well as under the door mirrors.
Depending on the angle of view chosen (front
view, rear view or 360° panoramic view), the
Vision 360
system provides a specific visual aid
in particular driving conditions, such as when
entering a
blind crossroads or manoeuvring in
areas with reduced visibility.
Once activated, this function is operational up
to 9
mph (15 km/h). Above 19 mph (30 km/h),
the system deactivates automatically.

This system is a visual aid that cannot in
a ny circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The images provided by the camera(s)
may be distorted by the relief. The
presence of areas in shadow, bright
sunlight, or poor lighting conditions may
make the image dark and reduce contrast.
Forward vision
The camera situated on the front bumper is
activated and the views of the area to the
front left and the area to the front right of your
vehicle appear simultaneously in the instrument
panel.
Rear vision
The camera situated on the tailgate is activated
and the view of the area behind your vehicle is
displayed in the instrument panel and behaves
as a
reversing camera, regardless of the
position of the gear selector.
The blue outline represents the width of
your vehicle (without mirrors): its orientation
depends on the position of the steering wheel.
The red line represents the distance of 30 cm)
from the rear bumper and the two green lines
the distances of 1 m and 2 m respectively from
the rear bumper.
The rear vision is displayed automatically
when reverse gear is engaged, regardless
of the state of the system.
Vision 360
The cameras situated on the front and rear
bumpers as well as those below the door
mirrors activate and a view from above of your
vehicle in its close environment is generated
and is displayed in the instrument panel.
Opening a door or the tailgate will disrupt the
3 60 and rear views.
Installation of the very cold climate screen will
alter the image transmitted by the front camera.
