This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions).
Stopping the vehicle
Malfunction
When the ignition is on, the lighting
of this warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message
in the screen, indicates a gearbox
fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel
a substantial knock when changing from P
to R and from N to R. This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox. There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:
-
i
f you press the accelerator and brake
pedals at the same time,
-
i
f you force the movement of the
selector from position P to another
position when the battery is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when at
a prolonged standstill with the engine
running (traffic jam, etc.), put the
selector in position N and apply the
parking brake.
D disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succession in
the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the
selected gear flashes for a few seconds, then
the actual gear engaged is displayed.
It is possible to change from position D
(automatic) to position M (manual) at any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox engages first gear
automatically.
The sport and snow programmes are
inactive in manual mode. Before switching off the engine, you can
engage position P or N to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to keep
the vehicle stationary.
If the selector is not in position P , when the
driver's door is opened or approximately
45
seconds after the ignition is switched
off, a warning message appears on the
screen.
F
R
eturn the selector to position P

message disappears.
When driving on flooded roads or when
crossing a ford, proceed at walking pace. Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.

If the engine is in STOP mode, it restarts
immediately.
The Stop & Start system is reactivated
automatically every time the ignition is switched
on.
With button
Press this button to deactivate the system.
Deactivation is confirmed by the illumination of
the button indicator lamp and the display of a
message.
Pressing this button again reactivates the
function.
The button indicator lamp goes off and a
message is displayed.
With touch screen
The Stop & Start setting can be
configured in the menu Driving /
Vehicle. Opening the bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid the risk of injury related to an
automatic change to START mode.
Driving on flooded roads
Before driving through a flooded road, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start.
For more information on Driving
recommendations
, particularly on
flooded roads, refer to the corresponding
section.
Malfunction
In the event of a fault in the system,
the indicator lamp in the "ECO OFF"
button flashes for a moment, then
illuminates continuously.
Have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall. All of the instrument panel
warning lamps come on. It is then necessary to
switch the ignition off and to restart the engine
using the key.
The Stop & Start system requires a
12 V battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work on this type of battery must be
carried out only by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
For more information on the 12 V batter y

Under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressure in all four
tyres, as soon as the vehicle is moving.
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 pressure of one or more
tyres.
The under-inflation detection system does
not replace the need for vigilance on the
part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres worsens
road-holding, lengthens braking distances,
causes premature wear of the tyres,
particularly in adverse conditions (heavy
loads, high speeds, long journeys). Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section.
Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when the tyres
are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1
hour or
after a journey of less than 6
miles (10 km)
at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3
bar to the pressures
shown on the label.
Under-inflation alert

continuous illumination of the
warning lamp, an audible signal and
a message displayed on the screen. F
R
educe speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and sudden braking.
F
S
top as soon as it is safe to do so.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on a simple visual check.
F
I
f you have a compressor (such as the one
in the temporary puncture repair kit), check
the pressures of the four tyres when cold.
If it is not possible to carry out this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
or
F
I
n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment).
The warning remains active until the
system is reinitialised.Reinitialisation
The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressures of one or more
tyres, and after changing one or more wheels.

Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed illumination of the
under-inflation warning lamp accompanied
by illumination of the Ser vice warning lamp
indicates a fault with the system.
A message appears, accompanied by an
audible signal.
In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
tyres is no longer assured.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.Before doing anything to the system,
the pressure of the four tyres must be
checked and the system reinitialised.
Speed limiter
System which prevents the
vehicle from exceeding the speed
programmed by the driver.
Once the speed limit is reached, the
accelerator pedal no longer has any effect.
The speed limiter is switched on manually:
it requires a programmed speed of at least
20
mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is switched off by manual
operation of the control.
The programmed speed can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly.
To return to the set speed, simply slow down to
a speed below the programmed speed.
The set speed remains in the system memory
when the ignition is switched off.
The speed limiter cannot in any
circumstances replace the need to respect
speed limits, or the vigilance of the driver.

Reversing camera
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image is displayed on the touch screen.
The reversing camera function may be
supplemented with parking sensors.
The superimposed representation of guide
lines helps with the manoeuvre.
They are represented by lines marked "on
the ground" and do not allow the position of
the vehicle to be determined relative to tall
obstacles (for example: other vehicles, etc.).
Some distortion of the image is normal.The blue lines represent the general direction
of the vehicle (the gap represents the width of
your vehicle except for the door mirrors).
The red lines represent a distance of about
30
cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r.
The green lines represent distances of about
1 and 2 metres beyond the edge of your
vehicle's rear bumper.
The turquoise blue cur ves represent the
maximum turning circle.
The reversing camera is only an aid and
the driver must remain cautious at all times.
