Lighting and visibility
Once the function is activated, the system
operates as follows:
If the brightness is sufficient and/or if the traffic
conditions do not allow illumination of the main
beam headlamps:
– The dipped beam headlamps will
remain on: this indicator lamp lights up on
the instrument panel.
If the brightness is very low and the traffic
conditions allow:
– The main beam headlamps
come on automatically: these
indicator lamps light up on the instrument panel.
If the situation requires a change of headlamp
beam, the driver can take over at any time.
Flashing the headlamps again pauses the
function and the lighting system changes to
"automatic illumination of headlamps" mode.
At a speed lower than approximately 9 mph (15
km/h), the function deactivates automatically.
If the main beam headlamps are still needed,
flash the headlamps again; the main beam
headlamps then remain on fixed until the vehicle
reaches a speed of approximately 25 mph (40
km/h).
Above 25 mph (40 km/h), the function is
reactivated automatically (provided that you have
not flashed the headlamps again to turn off the
main beam headlamps during this interval).
Deactivation
► Turn the lighting control stalk ring to
the "Dipped beam" position.
The system may suffer interference or not work correctly:
– under conditions of poor visibility (falling
snow, heavy rain or thick fog, etc.),
– if the windscreen in front of the camera is
dirty, misted or obscured (by a sticker, etc.),
– if the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
The system is not able to detect: – road users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians,
– vehicles whose lighting is obscured, such
as when running behind a safety barrier on a
motorway, for example,
– vehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on twisty roads, on crossroads.
Parking lamps
This system allows you to leave the lamps on
when parked; with the ignition off, and the key in
the STOP position or removed.


► Move the lighting control stalk ring to position
O, then to dipped beam headlamps or main
beam headlamps.
This indicator lamp comes on in the
dashboard.
The lamps will stay on for the duration of your
parking.
Extended lighting can significantly reduce
the vehicle's battery charge.
Headlamp beam height
adjustment
To avoid inconvenience to other road users,
the height of the halogen headlamps should be
adjusted according to the load in the vehicle.
This function can be accessed in dipped beam
and main beam headlamp positions.


Successive presses on these
controls adjust the headlamps.
An indicator lamp on the display indicates the
selected setting position (0, 1, 2, 3).
Wiper control stalk
Windscreen wipers
The wiping is active only when the ignition key is
in the ON position.


The control stalk can have 5 different positions:
– Wipers off.
– Intermittent wiping: 1 notch down. In this
position, by turning the ring, it is possible to
select 4 frequency levels (very slow, slow,
normal, fast).

Driving
6Starting-switching off the
engine
Ignition switch

STOP position: Anti-theft.
The ignition is off.
MAR position: ignition on.
Certain accessories can be used.
AV V position: starter.
The starter is operated.
Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key or the remote control, which would weigh
down on its blade in the ignition switch and
could cause a malfunction.
Starting the engine
► With the parking brake applied and the
gearbox in neutral, turn the key to the MAR
position.
► Wait until this warning lamp goes out,
then operate the starter (AV V position)
until the engine starts.
The period of illumination of the warning lamp
depends on the climatic conditions.
When the engine is hot, the warning lamp lights
up for a few moments; you can start the engine
immediately.
► When the engine starts, release the key.
Immobiliser warning lamp
If this warning lamp lights up, change key
and have the faulty key checked by a CITROËN
dealer.
Switching off the engine
► Immobilise the vehicle.
► Move the key back to the STOP position.
In low temperatures
In mountainous and/or cold areas, it is
advisable to use a "winter" type fuel suited to
low or minus temperatures.
Battery standby system
If your vehicle is to be out of use for an extended
period of time, such as during winter storage for
example, it is strongly recommended to put the battery in standby mode in order to protect it and
optimise its life.


To put the battery in standby mode:
► Switch the engine off ( STOP position).


► Press the red button, then turn the key to the
BATT position.
The battery goes into standby mode
approximately 7 minutes later.
This time is necessary to:
– allow the user to leave the vehicle and lock the
doors using the remote control.
– ensure that all vehicle electrical systems are
deactivated.

Driving
When the battery is in standby mode,
access to the vehicle is only possible by
unlocking the mechanical lock on the driver's
side door.
After a battery standby, the information (time, date, radio stations, etc.) is
memorised.
To remove the battery from standby mode:
► Turn the key to the MAR - ON position.
► Start the vehicle normally ( AV V position).
Parking brake
Application
► Apply the parking brake to immobilise the
vehicle.
► Check that the parking brake is correctly
applied before leaving the vehicle.
Apply the parking brake only when the
vehicle is stationary.
When parking on a slope, turn your
wheels towards the kerb and pull the
parking brake lever up.
There is no advantage in engaging a gear
after parking the vehicle, particularly if the
vehicle is loaded.
In the event of a failure of the
hydraulic braking system
While driving , to avoid any accidental
movement of the vehicle, use the parking
brake while depressing the brake pedal.
In this exceptional circumstance, it is
advisable to pull the parking brake up gently
so as not to block the rear wheels - risk of
skidding!
Release

► Pull the lever up gently and press the button
to release the parking brake.
When the vehicle is being driven, this
warning lamp coming on indicates that
the parking brake is still applied or has not been
fully released.
Manual gearbox
To change gear easily, always fully depress the
clutch pedal.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught under
the pedal:
– ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
– never fit one mat on top of another.
Avoid leaving your hand on the gear knob as
the force exerted, even if slight, may wear the
internal components of the gearbox over time.
Engaging reverse gear

► Lift the ring under the knob to engage reverse
gear.
Never engage it until the vehicle has
come to a complete stop.
The movement must be done slowly to reduce
the noise when engaging reverse gear.
If fitted to the vehicle, the parking
sensors are activated when reverse gear
is engaged; an audible signal sounds.
For more information on the Parking
sensors, refer to the corresponding section.
Gear shift indicator
Depending on version or engine, this system
reduces fuel consumption by recommending a
higher gear change.
Gear shift recommendations should not be
considered compulsory. In fact, the road layout,
the traffic density and safety remain the deciding
factors when choosing the best gear. The driver
therefore remains responsible for deciding
whether or not to follow the indications issued by
the system.
The system cannot be deactivated.
Operation
The information appears in the instrument panel screen in the form of the SHIFT
indicator, accompanied by an upward arrow to
signal to the driver that they can change up.
The system adapts its gear shift recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the driver’s
requirements (power, acceleration, braking,
etc.).
The system never recommends engaging first
gear or reverse, or changing down.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
phases when the vehicle is stopped (red lights,
