The audible (front and rear) and visual
(rear) parking sensor system consists
of
proximity sensors, installed in the
rear
bumper.
The sensors detect any obstacle which
enters
its field of operation: person,
vehicle, tree, fence, behind the vehicle
during
the manoeuvre.
Certain
objects detected at the
beginning
of the manoeuvre will no
longer be detected at the end of the
manoeuvre
due to the blind spots
between
and below the sensors.
Examples:
stake, roadworks cone or
pavement
post.

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 EBF
d provides control of
the
braking pressure wheel by wheel.If
this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an
audible
signal and a message
in the screen, it indicates a
malfunction
of the
ABS
which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle
on braking.
If
this warning lamp comes
on,
together with the brake
and
STOP
warning lamps,
accompanied
by an audible
signal
and a message in the
screen,
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
ASSIST
ANCE (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables the optimum braking pressure to be
reached
more quickly, press the pedal
firmly
without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake
pedal is pressed down.
This
alters the resistance of the brake
pedal
under your foot.
To
maintain 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.
o
n 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 firmly, 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 listed by
CITROËN
for the vehicle. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a CITR
o Ë n
dealer
or a qualified workshop.

ANTI-SLIP REGULATION (ASR)
AND
DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (DSC)
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
d SC 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 d SC
system
automatically acts on the
engine
and the brake of one or more
wheels,
in order to put the vehicle back
on
course.
Deactivation
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting the vehicle when stuck in mud
or
snow, or on loose ground...), it could
prove useful to deactivate the a
SR and
DSC
systems to make the wheels spin
and
regain grip.
Operating fault
Good practice
The ASR/DSC 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 fitting and repair
procedures
are observed.
After
an impact, have these systems
checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
workshop.
Operation
The warning lamp flashes when operation of the a SR or
DSC
is triggered.
They engage again:
-
automatically
above 30 mph
(50
km/h), When
a malfunction of the systems
occurs, the warning
lamp
and the LED come on,
accompanied
by an audible
signal
and a message in the
screen.
-
Press the button or turn
the dial to the
d SC o FF
position (depending on
model).
-
The
LED comes on: the
ASR
and
DSC
systems no longer come into
play
. -
manually
by pressing the
button again or by turning
the dial to this position
(depending
on model).Contact a CITR
o Ë n dealer or a
qualified
workshop to have the system
checked.
The
warning lamp may also come on if
the
tyres are under-inflated. Check the
pressure
of each tyre.

GRIP CONTROL
Correct use
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive
on tarmac roads but it allows you
to drive on other less passable terrain
occasionally
.
However, particularly when your
vehicle is heavily laden, it does not
permit
off-road activities such as:
-
crossing and driving on ground
which
could damage the underbody
or
tear off components (fuel pipe,
fuel
cooler, ...), particularly by
obstacles or stones,
-
driving on ground with steep
gradients and poor grip,
-
crossing
a stream.
On
snow,
mud
or
sand,
traction
control
is
obtained
by
a
compromise
between
safety
, grip, traction and appropriate
tyres.
It
adapts
to
allows
most
conditions
of
poor
grip
to
be
accommodated.
The
accelerator
pedal
must
be
pressed
enough for there to be adequate
engine
power
to
manage
the
various
parameters
in
the
best
way.

different modes are available:
Normal (ESC)
ESC OFFSnow
This mode allows the vehicle to adapts its strategy to the
conditions of grip encountered
for each of the two front
wheels,
on moving off.
When
moving, the system optimises
wheelspin to provide the best
acceleration possible for the grip
available.
Off road
(mud, wet grass, ...)
When moving off, this mode allows considerable
wheelspin on the wheel
with the least grip to favour
clearing
of the mud and
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
wheelspin
to meet the driver's
requirements
as fully as possible.
Sand
This mode allows a little wheelspin on the two driving
wheels at the same time to
allow
the vehicle to move
forward
and reduces the risk
of
getting stuck in the sand.
Do
not
use the other modes on sand
as
the
vehicle may become stuck.
This
mode
is
calibrated
for
a
low
level
of
skidding,
based
on dif
ferent conditions of grip
encountered
on
the
road.
When the ignition is switched off, the
system
returns
automatically
to
DSC
mode.
This
mode
is
only
suitable
for
specific
conditions
encountered
when
moving
off
or
at
low
speed.
Above
30
mph
(50
km/h)
the
system
returns
to
DSC
mode
automatically
