Daytime lights
Depending on the country in which the
vehicle is sold, the vehicle may be equipped
with daytime lights. The dipped headlamps
come on when the vehicle is started.
Rear fog lamps (amber,
2nd rotation of the ring
forwards).
Front fog lamps (green,
1st rotation of the ring
forwards).
Front and rear fog lamps
Rotate ring
B forwards to switch on and
rearwards to switch off. The status is
confi rmed by the light on the instrument
panel.
These operate with the side lights and
the dipped beam headlamps.
Do not forget to switch them off
when they are no longer needed.
Automatic switching on of the lights
switches off the rear fog lamps, but the
front fog lamps remain on. This warning light comes on
on the instrument panel.
The instruments and controls
(instrument panel, display, air
conditioning control panel, ...)
are only lit on switching to the automatic
switching on of the lights mode or when
the lights are switched on manually.
To switch off the front and rear fog
lamps, turn the ring rearwards twice
in succession.
In clear weather or in rain, both day
and night, rear fog lamps dazzle and
are prohibited.
Automatic switching on of the lights
In foggy weather or in snow,
the brightness sensor can detect
suffi cient light. As a consequence,
the lights will not come on automatically.
If necessary, you must switch on the
dipped headlamps manually.
Do not cover the brightness
sensor located on the windscreen,
behind the mirror. It is used for
the automatic switching on of the lights
and for the automatic wipers.
Activation
Turn the ring to the AUTO position.
The activation of this function is
accompanied by a message on the
display.
Deactivation
Turn the ring forwards or rearwards.
The deactivation of this function is
accompanied by a message on the
display.
The function is deactivated temporarily
when you use the manual lights stalk. The side lights
and dipped beam
headlamps switch
on automatically if
the light is poor, or
during operation of the windscreen
wipers. They switch off as soon as the
light becomes bright enough or the
windscreen wipers stop.
This function is not compatible with the
daytime lights.

Practical information
TORCH
A removable torch, incorporated in the
wall of the boot, carries out two functions:
- boot light,
- torch.
The boot light operates automatically
when the boot is opened.
The torch operates with NiMH type
storage batteries.
Observe the polarities when fi tting
these storage batteries. Using the torch
Remove it from its location by pulling
from the top.
Press the switch, located on the back
of the torch, to switch it on or off.
The retaining clip allows you to position
the torch for precise use (for example,
lighting while changing a wheel).
Storing the torch
Always put the torch back starting by
positioning the lower part in its location.
If it is not engaged correctly it may not
charge and may not come on when the
boot is opened.
Putting the torch back in place
switches it off automatically if it has not
been switched off already.
The torch has a maximum operating
time of 45 minutes and charges within
a few hours while driving.
Never replace the storage batteries
with conventional batteries.

Driving safety
HORN
Press the centre of the steering wheel.
HANDBRAKE
Applying
Pull the handbrake to immobilise your
vehicle.
Check that the handbrake is applied
fi rmly before leaving the vehicle. Releasing
Pull the handle and press the button to
lower the handbrake.
HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS
Press this button, the direction
indicators fl ash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
The hazard warning lights should only
be used in dangerous situations, when
stopping in an emergency or when
driving in unusual conditions.
When parking on a slope, direct your
wheels towards the pavement and pull
the handbrake.
There is no advantage in engaging
a gear after parking the vehicle,
particularly if the vehicle is loaded.
If the handbrake is still on or has
not been released properly, this is
indicated by this warning light which
comes on on the instrument panel. Automatic lighting of hazard
warning lights
When braking in an emergency,
depending on the force of deceleration,
the hazard warning lights come
on automatically. They switch off
automatically the fi rst time you
accelerate.
It is also possible to switch them off by
pressing the button on the fascia.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS - EBFD)
The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake
force distribution) systems improve the
stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle on braking, in particular on
poor or slippery surfaces.
The ABS prevents locking of the
wheels, the EBFD provides control of
the braking pressure wheel by wheel. If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on
the display, it indicates a
malfunction of the ABS which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle on braking.
If this warning light comes
on, together with the brake
and STOP warning lights,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
display, it indicates a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution
which could result in a loss of control of
the vehicle on braking.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, press the pedal
fi rmly without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is activated.
This alters the resistance of the brake
pedal under your foot.
To prolong the operation of the
emergency braking assistance system:
keep your foot on the brake pedal.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock. It does not
reduce the braking distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil,
etc...) the ABS may increase the
braking distance. When braking in
an emergency, do not hesitate to
press the brake pedal fi rmly, without
releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able
to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle
to avoid an obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be
felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), ensure that these are
recommended by CITROËN .
Stop immediately.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN
dealer.

Driving safety
TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP)
These systems are linked and
complement the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and
avoiding losses of control of the vehicle
on acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent
the wheels skidding, by acting on the
brakes of the drive wheels and on the
engine. It also allows the directional
stability of the vehicle to be improved
on acceleration.
Use the ESP to hold your course
without attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESP
system automatically acts on the
engine and the brake of one or more
wheels, in order to put the vehicle back
on course. Disarming the ASR/ESP
systems
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting the vehicle when stuck in mud
or snow, or on loose ground...), it could
prove useful to disarm the ASR and
ESP systems to make the wheels spin
and regain grip.
- Press the button, located on the
centre console.
- The indicator light comes on: the ASR and ESP systems no longer
act. Operating check
Good practice
The ASR/ESP systems offer increased
safety during normal driving, but
should not incite the driver to take risks
or to drive at high speed.
The operation of these systems is
ensured if the recommendations
of the manufacturer regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking components, the electronic
components and the fi tting and repair
procedures within the CITROËN
network are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Operation of the ASR and ESP
systems
The luminous diode fl ashes
when the ASR or ESP is
triggered.
They engage again:
- automatically above 30 mph (50 km/h),
- manually by pressing the button again. When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the indicator
light comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message on the display.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked.
The warning light may also come on if
the tyres are under-infl ated. Check the
pressure of each tyre.
