In severe wintry conditions (temperature
below -23°C), it is recommended that the
engine be allowed to run for a
few minutes
before moving off, to ensure the correct
operation and durability of the engine and
gearbox. If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox,
never try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.
Stopping the vehicle
Whatever the state of the gearbox when the
ignition is switched off, mode P is engaged
automatically and immediately.
However, in mode N
, mode P will be engaged
after a
duration of 5 seconds (allowing for the
process of putting the vehicle to free-wheeling).
Check that mode P has been engaged and
that the electric parking brake was applied
automatically; if not, apply it manually.
The corresponding indicator lamps
in the selector and the electric
parking brake control lever must
be on, as well as those in the
instrument panel.
Operating faults
Gearbox operating fault
This is signalled by the illumination of
this warning lamp, accompanied by the
display of a message and an audible
signal, when the ignition is switched on.
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w orkshop.
Do not drive faster than 62
mph (100 km/h),
keeping to the speed limit.
The gearbox switches to back-up mode: mode
D is locked in third gear, the steering-mounted
control paddles are inoperative, mode M is no
longer available. You may feel a
pronounced
jolt when engaging reverse. This does not
present any risk for the gearbox.

12 V
battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work concerning the battery must be
carried out only by a
CITROËN dealer or
a
qualified workshop.
After the engine has restarted, STOP
mode is not available until the vehicle has
reached a speed of 5 mph (8 km/h).
During parking manoeuvres, STOP mode
is not available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear or turning the
steering wheel.
The engine automatically restarts as soon as
the driver indicates the intention of moving off
again.
Tyre under-inflation
detection
This system automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
It compares the information given by the wheel
speed sensors with reference values, which

must be reinitialised ever y time the tyre
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a
drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
Under-inflation detection does not replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
This system does not avoid the need
to regularly check the tyre pressures
(including the spare wheel) as well as
before a
long journey.

Highway Driver Assist
This system provides active assistance in
keeping the vehicle in position in its lane.
It associates the Adaptive Cruise Control with
Stop & Go function and Active Lane Keeping
Assist.
These two functions must be activated and in
operation.
These functions are especially suitable for
driving on motor ways and main roads.
For more information on Adaptive Cruise
Control and Active Lane Keeping Assist ,
refer to the corresponding sections. The system assists the driver in managing
the steering, acceleration and braking
within the limits of the laws of physics
and the capabilities of the vehicle. Some
road infrastructure elements or vehicles
present on the road may not be properly
seen or may be poorly interpreted by the
camera and radar, which may lead to an
unexpected change in direction, a lack of
steering correction and/or inappropriate
management of the acceleration or
braking.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Refer to the General recommendations
on the use of driving and manoeuvring
aids
and to Cruise control – par ticular
recommendations .
This system automatically maintains the
speed of your vehicle at a
value which you set
(speed setting), while keeping a
safe distance
from the vehicle in front (target vehicle), and
which has been set beforehand by the driver.
The system automatically manages the
acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle. With the Stop function
, the system manages
the braking until the vehicle stops completely.
With the Stop & Go function, the system
manages the braking until the vehicle stops
completely, and also manages its restarting.
To do so, it has a camera located at the top of
the windscreen and, depending on version, a
radar located in the front bumper.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motor ways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.
If the driver operates a
direction indicator
to overtake a
slower vehicle, the cruise
control allows your vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle in front to assist
the overtaking manoeuvre, without ever
exceeding the speed setting.
