Driving
Noise (Electric)
On the outside
Due to the vehicle’s quiet operation when 
driving, the driver must pay particular attention.
When manoeuvring, the driver must always 
check the vehicle's immediate surroundings.
At speeds of up to 19 mph (30 km/h), the 
pedestrian horn warns other road users of the 
vehicle’s presence.
Cooling the traction battery
The cooling fan comes on during 
charging to cool the on-board charger and the 
traction battery.
On the inside
During use, you may hear certain perfectly 
normal noises specific to electric vehicles, such 
as:
–
 
T
 raction battery relay when starting.
–
 
V
 acuum pump when braking.
–
 
V
 ehicle tyres or aerodynamics when driving.
–
 
Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.
Towing
Driving with a trailer places greater 
demands on the towing vehicle and 
particular care must be taken.
Do not exceed the maximum towable 
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by 
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower 
air density at high altitudes decreases engine 
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the 
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles 
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the 
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the 
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the 
heaviest items are as close as possible to the 
axle and the nose weight (at the point where it 
joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum 
permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing 
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the 
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer 
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine CITROËN towing device is 
used, the rear parking sensors will be 
deactivated automatically to avoid the audible 
signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant 
temperature to increase. The maximum towable 
load depends on the gradient and the exterior 
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not 
increase with engine speed.
►
 
Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to 
limit the amount of heating produced.
►
 
Pay constant attention to the coolant 
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP 
warning lamp come on, stop the 
vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as 
possible.
Brakes
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit 
the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances 
are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more 
susceptible to wind when towing.

–
 
narrow or winding roads.
In certain driving conditions (poor road 
surface or strong winds), the system may 
give alerts independent of the driver's level of 
vigilance.
The following situations may interfere  with the operation of the system or 
prevent it from working:
–
 
lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow
 , 
mud) or multiple (roadworks);
–
 
close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings 
not detected);
–
 
roads that are narrow
 , winding, etc.
Parking sensors
For more information, refer to the 
General recommendations on the use 
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
 
 
This system detects and signals the proximity of 
obstacles (e.g.
  pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) 
using sensors located in the bumper.
Rear parking sensors
► Engage reverse gear to start the  system 
(confirmed by an audible signal).
The system is switched off when reverse gear is 
disengaged.
Audible assistance 
 
The system signals the presence of obstacles 
which are both within the sensors’ detection zone 
and in the vehicle path defined by the direction of 
the steering wheel.
 
 
Depending on version, in the example shown, 
only the obstacles present in the shaded area 
will be signalled by the audible assistance.
The proximity information is given by an 
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of 
which increases as the vehicle approaches the 
obstacle.
When the distance between the vehicle and 
the obstacle becomes less than about thirty 
centimetres, the audible signal becomes 
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or 
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is 
located.
Adjusting the audible signalDepending on version, with 
CITROËN Connect Radio or 
CITROËN Connect Nav, pressing this button 
opens the window for adjusting the volume of 
the audible signal.   

162
Driving
Visual assistance 
 
This supplements the audible signal, without 
taking account of the vehicle's trajectory, by 
displaying bars on the screen whose location 
represents the distance between the obstacle 
and the vehicle (white: more distant, orange: 
close, red: very close).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger" 
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the 
front parking sensors are triggered when an 
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the 
vehicle is below 6 mph (10  km/h).
Front parking sensor operation is suspended if 
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in 
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected 
or the vehicle speed exceeds 6
  mph (10   km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) locates the obstacle relative to 
the vehicle, whether in front of or behind it on 
its path.
Side parking sensors 
 
Using four additional sensors located on the 
sides of the bumpers, the system records the 
position of obstacles during the manoeuvre and 
indicates them when they are located alongside 
the vehicle.
Only fixed obstacles are indicated 
correctly. Moving obstacles detected at 
the beginning of the manoeuvre may be 
indicated mistakenly, while moving obstacles 
that appear alongside the vehicle but were 
not previously recorded will not be indicated.
Objects memorised during the 
manoeuvre will no longer be stored after 
switching off the ignition.
Deactivation/Activation
Without touch screen 
 
 
 
► To deactivate or activate the system, press 
this button.
The indicator lamp is  on when the system is 
deactivated.

installed in accordance with the 
manufacturer's recommendations.
In this case, the outline of a trailer is displayed 
at the rear of the image of the vehicle.
The parking sensors are deactivated while the 
Park Assist function is measuring a space.
For more information on the  Park 
Assist
  function, refer to the corresponding 
section.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt, 
affecting distance measurements.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction when 
changing into reverse gear, this warning 
lamp lights up on the instrument panel, 
accompanied by the display of a message and 
an audible signal (short beep).
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Reversing camera 
 
For more information, refer to the 
General recommendations on the use 
of driving and manoeuvring aids .With the ignition on, this system uses a camera 
located near the third brake lamp to display 
a view of the rear of your vehicle on the 
reproduction screen (if it is a panel van or has a 
solid partition).
The reversing camera is activated automatically 
when reverse gear is engaged. The image 
is displayed on the reproduction screen. The 
reproduction screen switches off when the 
gearbox is in neutral or in a forward gear.
 
 
 
 
The blue lines  1 represent the general direction 
of the vehicle (the gap corresponds to the width 
of your vehicle with the mirrors).
The red line  2 represents a distance of about 
30
  cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear 
bumper.
The green lines  3 represent distances of about 1 
and 2 metres beyond the edge of your vehicle's 
rear bumper.
The turquoise blue curves  4 represent the 
maximum turning circle.
Some objects may not be seen by the 
camera.
Certain vehicles may be difficult to see 
(dark colours, lamps off) when the 
brightness of the screen is reduced using the 
vehicle’s lighting dimmer.
The image quality may be affected by the  surroundings, the exterior conditions 
(rain, dirt, dust), the driving mode and the 
lighting conditions (night, low sun).
In the presence of areas in shade, or in 
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate 
lighting, the image may be darkened and with 
lower contrast.
Obstacles may appear further away than 
they actually are.
During parking manoeuvres and lane 
changes, it is important to check the sides of 
the vehicle using the mirrors.
The rear parking sensors also supplement the 
information on the vehicle's surroundings.

Principle of operation 
 
Using the rear camera, the vehicle's close 
surroundings are recorded during manoeuvres 
at low speed.
An image from above your vehicle in its close 
surroundings is reconstructed (represented 
between the brackets) in real time and as the 
manoeuvre progresses.
It facilitates the alignment of your vehicle when 
parking and allows obstacles close to the vehicle 
to be seen. It is automatically deleted if the 
vehicle remains stationary for too long.
