Brightness adjustment
F With the engine running, adjust the brightness of the information display using
button 3 :
-
t
he "sun" to increase the brightness,
-
t
he "moon" to decrease the brightness. When stationary or while driving, no
objects should be placed around the
blade (or in its recess) so as to not impede
deployment of the blade and its correct
operation.
In certain extreme weather conditions
(rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, etc.)
the head-up display may not be legible or
may suffer temporary interference.
Some sunglasses may hamper reading of
the information.
To clean the blade, use a clean, soft cloth
(such as a spectacles cloth or microfibre
cloth). Do not use a dry or abrasive cloth
or detergent or solvent products as these
could scratch the blade or damage the
anti-reflection coating.
This system operates when the engine is
running, and the settings are stored when
the ignition is switched off.
Memorising speeds
This function allows speed settings to
be stored that will then be offered for
configuration of two systems: speed limiter
or cruise control.

This system prevents the vehicle
from exceeding the speed
programmed by the driver (speed
setting).
The speed limiter is switched on manually.
The minimum speed setting is 19 mph
(30
km/h).
The speed setting remains in the system
memory when the ignition is switched off.

Exceeding the programmed speed
setting
The speed setting can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator
pedal (the programmed speed flashes).
To return to the speed setting, release
the accelerator pedal (when this speed is
reached again, the display of the speed
stops flashing).
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following
situations:
-
i
n an urban area with the risk of
pedestrians crossing the road,
-
i
n heavy traffic,
-
o
n winding or steep roads,
-
o
n slippery or flooded roads,
-
i
n unfavourable climatic conditions,
-
d
riving on a speed circuit,
-
d
riving on a rolling road,
-
u
se of snow chains, non-slip covers or
studded tyres.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 keeps the
vehicle’s speed at the cruise value
programmed by the driver (speed
setting), without using the accelerator
pedal.
The cruise control is switched on manually.
It requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40
km/h).
With a manual gearbox, it requires the
engagement of third gear or higher.
With an automatic gearbox, it requires the
engagement of mode D or of second gear or
higher in mode M .
With an automatic or electronic gearbox,
second gear or higher must be engaged.
The cruise control remains active after
changing gear regardless of the gearbox
type on engines fitted with Stop & Start. Switching off the ignition cancels any
speed setting.

Level 2 (red colour): v isual and
audible alert, signalling that a
collision is imminent.
The message " Brake!" is displayed.
Where the speed of your vehicle is too
high approaching another vehicle, the first
level of alert may not be displayed: the
level 2 alert may be displayed directly.
Important: the level
1 alert is never
displayed for a stationary obstacle or
when the " Close" trigger threshold has
been selected.
Modifying the alert trigger
threshold
This threshold determines how you wish
to be warned of the presence of a moving
or stationary vehicle in front of you, or a
pedestrian present in your traffic lane.
The current threshold can be
modified in the vehicle configuration
menu using the audio system or the
touch screen.
You can select one of three pre-defined
thresholds:
-
"Distant ",
-
"Normal ", -
"
Close ".
The last threshold selected is memorised when
the ignition is switched off.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid
a collision, this system will supplement the
braking, within the limits of the laws of physics.
This assistance will only be provided if you
press the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake
Operation
The system operates under the following
conditions:
-
T
he vehicle's speed does not exceed
37 mph (60
km/h) when a pedestrian is
detected.
-
T
he vehicle's speed does not exceed 50
mph (80
km/h) when a stationary vehicle is
detected.
-
T
he vehicle's speed is between 3 mph
and 53
mph (5 km/h and 85 km/h) when a
moving vehicle is detected.
This warning lamp flashes (for about
10
seconds) once the function is
acting on the vehicle's brakes.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, keep the brake
pedal pressed down to prevent the vehicle from
starting off again.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, the engine may stall. This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, inter venes following the alerts if the
driver does not react quickly enough and does
not operate the vehicle's brakes.
It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a
frontal collision by your vehicle where the driver
fails to react.

The button flashes and a fault appears.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop. Detection may be disrupted:

Fatigue detection system
Refer to the General recommendations on
the use of driving and manoeuvring aids
.
Take a break as soon as you feel tired or at
least every two hours.
Depending on version, the function comprises
either the "Driver Attention Warning" system
alone or combined with the "Driver Attention
Alert" system.
Activation/Deactivation
Activation or deactivation is done in
the vehicle configuration menu.
Coffee Break Alert
The system triggers an alert as soon
as 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 opened.
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’s Attention Warning
Depending on version, the "Coffee Break Alert"
system is combined with the "Driver’s Attention
Warning" system.

As soon as reverse gear is engaged with the
engine running, this system displays views of
your vehicle’s close surroundings on the touch
screen using a camera located at the rear of
the vehicle.
The screen is divided into two parts: on the left,
a contextual view ; on the right, a view from
above the vehicle in its close surroundings. Different contextual views can be displayed in
the left-hand part:
-
s
tandard view,
-
1
80° view,
-
z
oom view.
AUTO mode is activated by default.
In this mode, the system chooses the best view
to display (standard or zoom) according to the
information transmitted by the parking sensors.
You can change the type of view at any time
during a manoeuvre.
The state of the function is not saved when the
ignition is switched off.
Principle of operation
An image from above your vehicle in its close
surroundings is reconstructed (represented
between the blue brackets) in real time and as
the manoeuvre progresses.
This representation facilitates the alignment of
your vehicle when parking and allows obstacles
close to the vehicle to be seen.
This image is automatically deleted if the
vehicle remains stationary for too long.
The parking sensors supplement the
information on the view from above the vehicle.
The display disappears above
approximately 6 mph (10
km/h).
The system is automatically deactivated
about 7 seconds after coming out of
reverse or on opening a door or the boot.
Activation
Activation is automatic on engaging reverse at
a speed lower than 6 mph (10 km/h).
Using the rear camera, the vehicle's
surroundings are recorded during manoeuvres
at low speed.
