first level of alert may not be displayed: the
level 2 alert may be displayed directly.
Important: the level 1 alert is not displayed
when there is a stationary obstacle or
when the "Near" trigger threshold has been
selected.
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 the driver
presses the brake pedal.
As soon as the system detects a potential obstacle, it prepares the braking
circuit in case automatic braking is needed.
This may cause a slight noise and a slight
sensation of deceleration.
Deactivation / Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.
Deactivation of the system is signalled by
the illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Operating conditions and
limits
Vehicle moving forward.
ESC system in working order.
DSC/ASR systems activated.
Seat belts fastened for all passengers.
Stabilised speed on roads with few bends.
In the following cases, deactivating the system
via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:
–

T

–

Carrying long objects on roof bars.
–


V
ehicle with snow chains fitted.
–

Before using an automatic car wash, with the
engine running.
–


Before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in
a workshop.
–


T
owed vehicle, engine running.
– Damaged front bumper (version with radar).
– Following an impact to the windscreen close to
the detection camera.
The system is automatically deactivated when the use of certain types of
"space-saver" spare wheel (smaller diameter)
is detected, or if a fault with the brake pedal
switch or at least two brake lamps is detected.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.
It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
The driver must always stay in control of the
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time
to avoid an accident.
After an impact, the function automatically stops operating. Contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to
have the system checked.
Collision Risk Alert
This function warns the driver that their vehicle
is at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front, or
with a pedestrian or cyclist present in their traffic
lane.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
This trigger threshold determines the sensitivity
with which the function warns of the risk of
collision.
The threshold is set via the Driving /
Vehicle touch screen menu.
►

Select one of the three pre-defined
thresholds: "Far", "Normal" or "Close".
The last threshold selected is memorised when
the ignition is switched off.
Operation
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert trigger
threshold chosen by the driver, several different
levels of alert may be triggered and displayed in
the instrument panel.
The system takes account of the vehicle
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the one
in front, the environmental conditions and the
operation of the vehicle (actions on the pedals,
steering wheel, etc.) to trigger the alert at the
most relevant moment.
Level 1 (orange): visual alert only,
warning that the vehicle in front is very
close.
The message
"Vehicle close" is displayed.
Level 2 (red): visual and audible alert,
warning that a collision is imminent.
The message "Brake! " is displayed.
Where the speed of your vehicle is too
high approaching another vehicle, the

135
Driving
6first level of alert may not be displayed: the
level 2 alert may be displayed directly.
Important: the level 1 alert is not displayed
when there is a stationary obstacle or
when the "Near" trigger threshold has been
selected.
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 the driver
presses the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake

This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, intervenes 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
collision where the driver fails to react.
Operation
The system operates subject to the following
conditions:
–

The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph
(60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
–


The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle or a cyclist
is detected.
– The vehicle's speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h)
(versions with camera and radar) or between
6 mph and 53 mph (10
km/h and 85 km/h)
(versions with camera only) when a moving
vehicle is detected.
This warning lamp flashes (for approximately 10 seconds) as soon as
the function applies the vehicle’s brakes.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking bringing the
vehicle to a complete stop, keep the brake
pedal pressed down to prevent the vehicle from
moving off again.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic
emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a
complete stop, the engine may stall.
The driver can maintain control of the vehicle at any time by firmly turning the
steering wheel and/or firmly depressing the
accelerator pedal.
The brake pedal may vibrate slightly while the function is operating.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2
seconds.

Practical information
Compatibility of fuels
Petrol fuels conforming to the EN228 standard
containing up to 5% and 10% ethanol
respectively.

Diesel fuels conforming to the EN590, EN16734
and EN16709 standards and containing up to
7%, 10%, 20% and 30% fatty acid methyl ester
respectively. The use of B20 or B30 fuels, even
occasionally, imposes special maintenance
conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".

Paraffinic Diesel fuel conforming to the EN15940
standard.
The use of any other type of (bio) fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel, etc.) is strictly prohibited (risk
of damage to the engine and fuel system).
The only fuel additives authorised for use are those that meet the B715001 (petrol)
or B715000 (Diesel) standards.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel fuels could prevent the engine from operating
correctly
. In these temperature conditions, use
winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank
more than 50 % full.
At temperatures below -15 °C (+5 °F) to avoid
problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle
under shelter (heated garage).
Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle’s
engine.
In certain countries, the use of a particular
fuel may be required (specific octane rating,
specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct
operation of the engine.
For all additional information, consult a dealer.
Refuelling
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 53 litres
(Petrol or Diesel) or 43 litres (Rechargeable
hybrid).
Reserve level: approximately 6 litres.
Low fuel level
/2
1 1When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp lights up on the
instrument panel, accompanied by the display of
a message and an audible signal. When it first
comes on, about 6 litres of fuel remain.
Until sufficient fuel is added, this warning lamp
appears every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by an onscreen message and
an audible signal. When driving, this message
and audible signal are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops towards 0.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
For more information on Running out of fuel
(Diesel), refer to the corresponding section.
A small arrow by the warning lamp indicates which side of the vehicle the
fuel filler flap is located on.
Stop & Start
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Refuelling
Any addition of fuel must be in quantities of at
least 10 litres, in order to be registered by the
fuel gauge.
Opening the filler flap may create a noise caused
by an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely
normal, resulting from the sealing of the fuel
system.
The filler cap is built into the filler
flap or must be
unscrewed (depending on version).
To refuel in complete safety:
►

Y
ou must switch off the engine.

terminal of the accessory batteries.
Precautions
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles have
been developed in accordance with the
recommendations for maximum electromagnetic
field limits established by the ICNIRP
(International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection - 1998 Guidelines).
Wearers of pacemakers or equivalent
devices should consult a doctor to enquire
about any applicable precautionary measures, or
contact the manufacturer of their implanted
electronic medical device to check that it is
guaranteed to operate in an environment
compliant with the ICNIRP guidelines.
If in doubt , during charging, do not remain
inside or near the vehicle, near the charging
cable or the charging unit, even for a short time.
Before charging
Depending on the context:
► Have a professional check that the
electrical system to be used complies with
applicable standards and is compatible with
the vehicle.
►

Have a professional electrician install
a dedicated domestic power socket or
accelerated charging unit (W

allbox)
compatible with the vehicle.
Use the charging cable supplied with the
vehicle.
(During charging)
As a safety measure, the engine will
not start if the charging cable is plugged into
the connector on the vehicle. A warning is
displayed on the instrument panel.
While charging is in progress, unlocking the
vehicle will cause the charging to stop.
If no action is taken on one of the openings
(door or boot) or on the charging nozzle, the
vehicle will lock again after 30 seconds and
charging will resume automatically.
Never work under the bonnet:
