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 the Stop function , the system manages
braking until the vehicle comes to a complete
stop.
With the Stop
& Go function , the system
manages braking until the vehicle comes to a
complete stop and restarts the vehicle.
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 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.
If the driver activates the direction
indicator to overtake a slower vehicle,
cruise control may temporarily reduce the
distance to the target vehicle to facilitate
overtaking, without exceeding the speed
setting.

– When a vehicle cuts in sharply between your
vehicle and the one in front.
Some vehicles on the road may be
poorly perceived or interpreted by the
camera and/or the radar (e.g.
truck), which
can lead to an incorrect evaluation of
distances and result in inappropriate
acceleration or braking of the vehicle.
Pay particular attention:
– When motorcycles are present and
when there are vehicles staggered across the
traffic lane.
–

When entering a tunnel or crossing a
bridge.
If any of the following malfunctions
occurs, do not use the system:
–

Following an impact on the windscreen
close to the camera or on the front bumper
(versions with radar).
–


Brake lamps not working.
If the vehicle has undergone any of the
following modifications, do not use the
system:
–

Carrying long objects on roof bars.
–

–

Use of the "space-saver" type spare wheel
(depending on version).
–


Front end of the vehicle modified (for
example by adding long-range headlamps or
painting the front bumper).
–


Obstructed radar and/or camera.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction,
dashes are displayed instead of
the speed setting.
This warning lamp comes on, accompanied by a message and an
audible signal, to confirm the malfunction.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Lane positioning assist
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .


The system identifies the edges of the traffic lane
and steers the vehicle to keep it inside this lane
and maintain the lateral position chosen by the
driver.
To do this, the system uses a camera placed on
the upper part of the windscreen.
This system is particularly suited to driving on
motorways and main roads.
Activation/Deactivation
The Lane positioning assist system is
automatically activated, after selecting Highway
Driver Assist mode.
For more information on the Highway Driver
Assist system, refer to the corresponding
section.
The selection is confirmed by the display of
the symbols on the instrument panel or on the
head-up display (if fitted), representing the

Lane keeping assist
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
The system corrects the vehicle's trajectory by
alerting the driver as soon as it detects a risk of
involuntary lane departure or crossing of a verge
or hard shoulder (depending on version).
To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on
the upper part of the windscreen, identifying the
lane markings on the ground and the side of the
road (depending on version).
This system is particularly useful on
motorways and main roads.


Operating conditions
– Vehicle speed between 40 and 112 mph (65
and 180 km/h).
–

Road marked with a central dividing line.
–

–


Direction indicators not activated.
–


ESC system activated and operational.
The system helps the driver only if there is a risk of the vehicle unintentionally
wandering from the lane it is being driven in. It
does not manage the safe driving distance,
vehicle speed or braking.
The driver must hold the steering wheel with
both hands in a way that allows control to
be maintained in circumstances where the
system is not able to intervene (for example, if
the central dividing line disappears).
Operation
As soon as the system identifies a risk of
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings
detected on the ground or a lane boundary
(e.g.
grass verge), it performs the trajectory
