Safety
Snow
This mode adapts its strategy to the conditions of grip encountered for each of
the two front wheels on moving off.
(mode active up to 50 mph (80
km/h))
All terrain (mud, damp grass, etc.)
This mode, when moving off, allows considerable spin on the wheel with the
least grip to optimise clearing of the mud and to
regain grip. At the same time, the wheel with the
most grip is controlled in such a way as to
transmit as much torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.
(mode active up to 31 mph (50
km/h))
Sand
This mode allows little spin on the two driving wheels at the same time to allow
the vehicle to move forward and limit the risks of
getting stuck in the sand.
(mode active up to 75 mph (120
km/h))
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck.
Deactivation
You can deactivate the ASR and DSC systems by turning the knob to the "OFF"
position.
The ASR and DSC systems will no longer act on the operation of the engine
or of the brakes in the event of a change of
trajectory.
These systems are reactivated automatically
from 31 mph (50
km/h) and whenever the
ignition is switched on.
Recommendations
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive on tarmac roads but it allows you to
occasionally drive on other less passable
terrain.
However, it does not permit off-road driving
such as:
–

crossing and driving on terrain which
could damage the underbody or strip away
components (fuel pipe, fuel cooler

, etc.) due
to obstacles or stones in particular,
–

driving on terrain with steep gradients and
poor grip,
–


crossing a stream.
Hill Assist Descent
Control
Hill Assist Descent Control system for medium to
steep slopes, on tarmac or other road surfaces
(e.g. gravel, mud).
This system reduces the risk of slip or loss of
control of the vehicle when descending, whether
going forward or in reverse.
During a descent, the system assists the driver
in maintaining a constant speed, depending on
the gear engaged, while progressively releasing
the brakes.
For the system to activate, the gradient
must be greater than 5%.
The system can be used with the gearbox in
neutral.
Otherwise, engage a gear corresponding to
the speed to prevent the engine stalling.
With an automatic gearbox, the system can
be used with the selector at N, D or R.
When the system is regulating, the Active
Safety Brake system is automatically
deactivated.
The system is no longer available if the speed of the vehicle is:
–

above 43 mph (70
km/h).
–

managed by the
Adaptive cruise control,
depending on the type of gearbox.
Switching on
By default, the system is not selected.
The state of the function is not saved when the
ignition is switched off.

128
Driving
The steering mounted controls do not allow neutral to be selected and reverse
gear to be engaged or disengaged.
Information displayed on
the instrument panel
When you move the selector or press button M ,
the corresponding gear and indicator lamp are
shown on the instrument panel.
The "-" symbol is displayed if a value is invalid.
► If the message " Foot on the brake" is
displayed on the instrument panel, press
the brake pedal firmly.
Starting the vehicle
► 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, unless it is set to
automatic mode (with electric parking brake).
►


Select position R

, N or D.
If you are setting off from a steep slope
with a loaded vehicle, depress the
brake pedal, select position D, release the
parking brake, unless it is set to automatic
mode (with electric parking brake), then
release the brake pedal.
► Gradually release the brake pedal.
Or
►

Accelerate gradually in order to release the
electric parking brake (if it is set to automatic
mode).
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 inside the vehicle
unsupervised.
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 , fully depress the
accelerator pedal (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 you release the accelerator sharply, 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.

142
Driving
instrument panel must match that of the
country you are driving in.
Automatic sign reading is a driving aid system and does not always display the
correct speed limits.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over those displayed by
the system.
The system is designed to detect signs that
conform to the Vienna Convention on road
signs.
Specific speed limits, such as those for
heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit on the
instrument panel is updated when passing
a speed limit sign intended for cars (light
vehicles).
Activation/Deactivation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
The settings are changed via the Driving/Vehicle touch screen
menu.
Information displayed on
the instrument panel


1. Detected speed limit indication
or
2. End of speed limit indication


The system is active but is not detecting speed
limit information.


On detecting speed limit information, the system
displays the value.


For a suggested maximum speed, the first time
that the vehicle exceeds it
by more than 3 mph
(5
km/h) (e.g. 59 mph (95 km/h)), the speed is
displayed and flashes for 10 seconds (depending
on version).
Operating limits
The system does not take account of reduced
speed limits, especially those imposed in the
following cases:
–

Atmospheric pollution.
–

Towing.
–

Driving with a space-saver type spare wheel
or snow chains fitted.
–


T
yre repaired using the temporary puncture
repair kit.
–

Y
oung drivers.
The system may not display the speed limit if it
does not detect a speed limit sign within a preset
period and in the following situations:
–

Road signs that are obstructed, non-standard,
damaged or bent.
–


Obsolete or incorrect maps.
Recommendation

In addition to Road signs recognition , the
driver can select the speed displayed as a speed
setting for the speed limiter or cruise control
using the speed limiter or cruise control 'store'
button.
For more information on the Speed
limiter, Cruise control or Adaptive

148
Driving
► Press the touch screen button for the desired
speed setting.
The selection screen closes after a few
moments.
This setting becomes the new cruise speed.
T
o modify the cruise speed setting using the
speed suggested by the Road signs recognition
shown on the instrument panel:
►

Press button
5 once; a message is displayed
to confirm the memorisation request.
►

Press button
5 again to save the suggested
speed.
The speed is immediately shown on the
instrument panel as the new speed setting.
Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speed
If needed (when overtaking, for example) it is
possible to exceed the programmed speed by
pressing the accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is temporarily deactivated and the
programmed speed displayed flashes.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Once the vehicle has returned to the
programmed speed, cruise control takes over
again and the programmed speed setting stops
flashing.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the
vehicle from exceeding the programmed
speed.
You may have to brake to control the speed of
your vehicle. In this case, the cruise control is
automatically paused.
To activate the system again, with the vehicle
speed above 25 mph (40
km/h), press button
4.
Switching off
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "0” position: the
cruise control information disappears from the
screen.
Malfunction

In the event of a malfunction, dashes are
displayed flashing and then fixed instead of the
speed setting.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Adaptive cruise control
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids and the
Cruise control - particular
recommendations.
This system automatically maintains the vehicle
speed at a value set by the driver (speed
setting), while respecting a safety distance from
the vehicle in front (target vehicle) previously set
by the driver. The system automatically manages
the acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle.
With a manual gearbox, the system slows the
vehicle down as far as a speed of 19 mph (30
km/h).
With the Stop function , the system manages
braking until the vehicle comes to a complete
stop.
The brake lamps come on if the vehicle is slowed down by the system.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.


To do this, the system uses a camera fitted at
the top of the windscreen and, depending on
version, a radar fitted in the front bumper.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.

►

Store the tools.
Fitting a steel spare wheel
If the vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, the
washers A do not make contact with the steel
spare wheel. The wheel is held in place by
the conical contact surface B of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
Stow the punctured wheel in the carrier.
With a non-standard spare wheel
Deactivate certain driving aid functions
(Active Safety Brake, Adaptive cruise control,
etc.).
Do not exceed the maximum authorised
speed of 50 mph (80
km/h) or the maximum
distance of 50 miles (80 km).
Driving with more than one spare wheel of
this type is prohibited.
The wheel trim from the replaced wheel must
not be refitted.
Visit a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Have the tightening of the spare wheel's bolts
and its tyre pressure checked.
Have the punctured tyre examined. After
inspection, the technician will advise you on
whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must
be replaced.
Wheel with wheel trim
When refitting the wheel, refit the wheel
trim, starting by aligning the cutout with the
valve and then pushing the trim into place all
round its edge with the palm of your hand.
Tyre inflation pressures are indicated on this label.
For more information on Identification
markings, particularly this label, refer to the
corresponding section.
Changing a bulb
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.
The headlamps have polycarbonate lenses with a protective coating:
–

Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive
cloth, nor with detergent or solvent
products.
–


Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product.
–


When using a high-pressure washer on
persistent marks, do not keep the lance
directed towards the headlamps, lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to damage
their protective coating and seals.
Changing a bulb must only be done with
the ignition off and after the headlamp /
lamp has been switched off for several
minutes - risk of serious burns!
Do not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers; use a lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
