5"ISOFIX" mountings
Row 2
* On some versions, the central seat is not
equipped with ISOFIX mountings.
The vehicle has been approved in accordance
with the latest ISOFIX regulation.
If fitted on the vehicle, the regulation ISOFIX
mountings are identified by labels.The mountings comprise three rings for each
seat:
–
T
wo front rings A, located between the vehicle
seat backrest and cushion, indicated by an
"ISOFIX" marking,
–
If fitted to your vehicle, a rear ring
B, located
behind the vehicle's seat, called Top Tether, for
securing the upper strap, indicated by a "Top
Tether" marking.
The Top Tether secures the upper strap of child
seats that have them. In case of frontal impact,
this device limits the tilting of the child seat
forward.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in the
vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two
latches which are secured on the two front rings
A.
Some child seats also have an upper strap which
is attached to rear ring B.
To secure the child seat to the Top Tether:
–
remove and stow the head restraint before
installing a child seat on this seat (refit it once
the child seat has been removed),
–
pass the strap
of the child seat over the top
of the seat backrest, centring it between the
openings for the head restraint rods,
– attach the hook of the upper strap to rear ring
B
,
–
tighten the upper strap.
Incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the protection of
the child in the event of an accident.
Strictly follow the fitting instructions provided
in the installation guide supplied with the child
seat.

Driving
► If the message "Foot on the brake" is
displayed on the instrument panel, press
the brake pedal firmly.
Moving off
► With your foot on the brake, select
position P
.
►
Start the engine.
If the conditions are not met, there is an audible
signal, accompanied by a message on the
instrument panel screen.
►
Release the parking brake.
►
Select position R
, N or D.
When moving off on a steep slope with a
loaded vehicle, press the brake pedal,
select position D, release the parking brake,
then release the brake pedal.
►
Gradually release the brake pedal.
The vehicle moves off immediately
.
If P is displayed on the instrument panel
but the selector is in another position,
place the selector in position P to allow the
engine to be started.
If position N is selected inadvertently while
driving, allow the engine to return to idle, then
select position D to accelerate.
When the engine is running at idle with
the brakes released, if position R, D or M
is selected, the vehicle moves even without
the accelerator being pressed.
Never leave children unsupervised inside the
vehicle.
As a safety measure, never leave the vehicle
without taking your key or remote control with
you, even for a short time.
When carrying out maintenance with the
engine running, apply the parking brake and
select position P.
With an automatic gearbox, never try to
start the engine by pushing the vehicle.
Automatic operation
► Select position D for automatic
changing of the gears.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any intervention on the part of the
driver. It continuously selects the most suitable
gear according to the driving style, the road
profile and the load in the vehicle.
For maximum acceleration without
touching the selector, press the
accelerator fully down (kick-down). The gearbox
changes down automatically or holds the gear
selected until the maximum engine speed is
reached.
When braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically to provide effective engine braking.
If the accelerator pedal is sharply released, the
gearbox will not shift to a higher gear for safety
reasons.
Never select position N while the vehicle
is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless the
vehicle is completely stationary.
Temporary manual control
of gear changes
You can temporarily assume control of gear
changing using the " +" et "-” steering-mounted
controls. The gear change request will be
executed if the engine speed permits.
This function allows you to anticipate certain
situations, such as overtaking another vehicle or
approaching a bend in the road.
After a few seconds with no inputs via the control
paddles, the gearbox reverts to automatic
operation.
Creeping (moving without
using the accelerator)
This function facilitates manoeuvring of the
vehicle at low speed (when parking, in traffic
jams, etc.).
When the engine is at idle, with the parking
brake released and gear position D, M or R
selected, the vehicle begins to creep forward
as soon as you take your foot off the brake pedal
(even without pressing the accelerator).
As a safety precaution, never leave the vehicle with the engine running and the
doors closed.
Manual operation
► With the selector in position D, press
button M to enable 6-speed sequential
gear changing.
The indicator lamp for the button comes on.
► Operate the "+" or "-" steering mounted
controls.
M appears and the engaged gears are
shown in succession on the instrument
panel.
► You can revert to automatic operation at any
time by pressing button M again.
The indicator lamp for the button goes off.
In manual mode, there is no need to
release the accelerator pedal while
changing gear.
It is only possible to change from one
gear to another if the vehicle speed and
engine speed permit.
If the engine speed is too low or too high,
the selected gear flashes for a few

the field of vision of the cameras regularly.
When washing your vehicle at high pressure,
direct the spray from at least 30
cm away
from the sensors and cameras.

,
►
never fit one mat on top of another
.
Units of speed
Ensure that the units of speed displayed
on the instrument panel (mph or km/h) are
those for the country you are driving in.
If this is not the case, when the vehicle is
stationary, set the display to the required
units of speed so that it complies with what is
authorised locally.
In case of doubt, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation

use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system displays the maximum authorised
speed in the instrument panel, according to
the speed limits in the country in which you are
driving, using:
