Lighting and visibility
Switching off of the lighting when the
ignition is switched off
When the ignition is switched off, all of the
lamps turn off immediately, except for the
dipped beam headlamps if automatic guide-
me-home lighting is activated.
Switching on the lamps after
switching off the ignition
If the driver's door is opened, a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the lamps
are on.
They will go off automatically after a period
of time that depends on the level of charge in
the battery (entering energy economy mode).
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
Never look too closely at the light beam
of LED technology lamps - risk of serious
eye injury!
Travelling abroad
If planning to use your vehicle in a
country that drives on the other side of the
road, the dipped beam headlamps must be
adjusted to avoid dazzling oncoming drivers.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Lighting and visibility
4This system is a driving aid.The driver remains responsible for
the vehicle's lighting, its correct use in the
prevailing light, visibility and traffic conditions,
and for compliance with driving and vehicle
regulations.
The system becomes operational when the vehicle exceeds 16 mph (25 km/h).
When the speed falls below 9 mph (15 km/h),
the function is no longer operational.
Activation/Deactivation
The settings are changed via the Driving/Vehicle touch screen
menu.
When deactivated, the lighting system changes
to "automatic illumination of headlamps" mode.
The state of the system is stored when the
ignition is switched off.
Operation
If the ambient light level is very low and traffic
conditions permit:
– The main beam headla mps
come on automatically. These
indicator lamps light up on the instrument panel.
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or the
traffic conditions do not allow the main beam
headlamps to be lit:
– The dipped beam head lamps
remain lit. These indicator lamps
light up on the instrument panel.
The function is deactivated if the foglamps
are switched on or if the system detects poor
visibility conditions (e.g.
fog, heavy rain,
snowfall).
When the foglamps are switched off or when the
visibility conditions become favourable again, the
function is automatically reactivated.
This indicator lamp goes out when the function is deactivated.
Pause
If the situation requires a change of headlamp
beam, the driver can take over at any time.
► A "headlamp flash" pauses the
function and the lighting system switches
to "automatic illumination of lamps" mode:
–
If the "AUT
O" and "Dipped beam" indicator
lamps were on, the system changes to main
beam.
–
If the "AUT
O" and "Main beam"
indicator
lamps were on, the system changes to
dipped beam.
►
T
o reactivate the function, once again switch
the headlamps manually between dipped and
main beam.
The system may be disrupted or not work correctly:
–
When visibility conditions are poor
(snowfall, heavy rain, etc.).
– If the windscreen in front of the camera is
dirty , misted or obscured (for example, by a
sticker).
–
If the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
–
Road users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians.
–
V
ehicles whose lighting is obscured (for
example, vehicles driving behind a safety
barrier on a motorway).
–
V
ehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
obstruct the detection camera.

appropriate emergency services**.
►
Pressing again immediately cancels the
request.
The indicator lamp flashes while the vehicle
data is being sent, and then remains lit when
communication is established.
If an impact is detected by the airbag
control unit, an emergency call is made
automatically, irrespective of the deployment
of any airbags.
This system is a public service and is free of charge.
Operation of the system
– Upon switching on the ignition, the indicator
lamp lights up red, then green, and then goes
out: the system is operating correctly
.
* In accordance with the general conditions of use of the service, available from dealers an\
d subject to technological and technical limitations.
** Depend ing on the geographic coverage of the "eCall (SOS)" and "ASSISTANCE" systems.
The list of countries covered and the telematic services provided is ava\
ilable from dealers or on the website for your country.
– The indicator lamp flashes red: replace the
back-up battery .
–
The indicator lamp is fixed red: system
malfunction.
The emergency and assistance call
services may not work.
–
If the indicator lamp does not come on when
the ignition is switched on, this also means that
there is a system malfunction.
If the problem persists, contact a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
A system fault does not prevent the vehicle from being driven.
Data processing
All processing of personal data by
the eCall (SOS) function complies with
the framework for protection of personal
information established by Regulation
2016/679 (General Data Protection
Regulation - GDPR) and Directive 2002/58/
EC of the European Parliament and the
Council, and in particular, seeks to protect
the vital interests of the data subject, in
accordance with Article 6 (1) d) GDPR.
The processing of personal data is strictly
limited to the purpose of handling the eCall
(SOS) function used with the “112” single
European emergency call number.
The eCall (SOS) function is only able to
collect and process the following data
relating to the vehicle: vehicle identification
number, vehicle type (passenger vehicle or
light commercial vehicle), fuel type or power
source, three most recent locations and
direction of travel, number of passengers
and a timestamped log file of the automatic
activation of the system and its timestamp.
The recipients of the processed data are the
emergency call handling centres designated
by the relevant national authorities in the
territory in which they are located, enabling
priority routing and handling of calls to the
“112” emergency number.
Data storage
Data contained in the system’s memory
is not accessible from outside the system until
a call is made. The system is not traceable
and is not continuously monitored in its
normal operating mode.
The data in the system's internal memory is
automatically and continuously erased. Only
the vehicle’s three most recent locations,
necessary for the normal functioning of the
system, are stored.
When an emergency call is triggered, the data
log is stored for no more than 13 hours.
