Starting and stopping
HILL START ASSIST

This function, linked with the ESC,
makes hill starts easier and is activated
in the following conditions:


- the vehicle must be stationary,
engine running, foot on the brake,

- the gradient of the road must be
steeper than 5%,

- uphill, the gearbox must be in
neutral or in a gear other than
reverse,

- downhill, reverse gear must be
engaged.
The HHC (Hill Holder Control) or Hill
Start Assist function is a driving comfort
system. It is not an automatic vehicle
parking function or an automatic
parking brake.

Operation

With the brake pedal and clutch pedal
pressed, from the time you release the
brake pedal you have approximately
2 seconds before the vehicle starts to
roll back and without using the parking
brake within which to move off.
During the moving off phase, the
function is deactivated automatically,
gradually releasing the braking
pressure. During this phase, the
characteristic noise of mechanical
release of the brakes may be heard,
indicating the imminent movement of
the vehicle.

Operating fault

Hill start assist is deactivated in the
following situations:


- when the clutch pedal is released,

- when the parking brake is applied,

- when the engine is switched off,

- when the engine stalls.

If a malfunction of the
system occurs, this
warning lamp comes on
accompanied by an audible
signal and confi rmed by
a message in the screen. Contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to have the system checked.

Towing a trailer

ACCESSORIE
S
5

For more information about weights,
refer to the administrative documents
(registration document, ...) or to the
"Weights" section of chapter 8.
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...


Distribution of loads

Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest objects are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight is close to the
maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.

Cooling

Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the coolant temperature. As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
You should therefore use a high gear
to lower the engine speed and reduce
your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant temperature.


Driving advice

A towed vehicle must free wheel:
gearbox in neutral.

Checks
To check the main levels
and certain components,
in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule,
refer to the pages of the servicing and
warranty booklet which correspond to
your vehicle's engine.

Bleeding water from the Diesel
filter
Manual gearbox

Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.

Only use products recommended
by CITROËN or products
of equivalent quality and
specifi cation.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, CITROËN selects and offers
specifi c products.
In order to avoid damaging the
electrical units, high pressure washing
to clean the engine compartment is
strictly prohibited.
After washing the vehicle dampness,
or in winter, ice may form on the brake
discs and pads: braking effi ciency may
be reduced. Make some light brake
applications to dry and de-ice the
brakes. If this warning lamp comes
on, bleed the fi lter. Otherwise
bleed regularly each time the
engine oil is changed.
To drain the water, unscrew the bleed
screw located on the fi lter.
Operate until all of the water no longer
fl ows in the transparent pipe, then
tighten the bleed screw.
HDi engines use advanced technology.
All work requires special training, which
is assured by a CITROËN dealer.
Depending on country of sale.

Having your vehicle towed



Without lifting (4 wheels on the

You should always use a towing bar.

BEING TOWED

The towing eye is stored in the tool kit,
located under the left-hand seat.

From the front



- Unclip the cover by pressing the
bottom part.

- Fully screw in the removable towing
eye.



From the rear



- Unclip the cover using a coin or the
fl at part of the towing eye,

- Fully screw in the removable towing
eye.

When towing with the engine
switched off, there is no braking or
steering assistance.


Lifting (2 wheels on the road
only)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle
using professional lifting equipment.


Vehicles fitted with a manual
gearbox (Diesel version)
In the case of vehicles fi tted with a
manual gearbox, the gear lever must
be in the neutral position, failure to
observe this special condition may
result in damage to transmission and
braking components and the absence
of braking assistance when the engine
is started again.
