HILL START ASSIST
This system (also called HHC - Hill
Holder
  Control),   linked   to   the   dynamic  
stability

  control   system,   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 Hill Start

Assist system is a driving
aid.
  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,   without   using   the  
parking

  brake,   you   have   approximately  
2

seconds to move off before the
vehicle
  starts   to   roll   back.
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 of
f,
-
 
when
  the   engine   stalls.
If a malfunction of the
system occurs, this
warning lamp comes on
accompanied by an audible
signal
  and   confirmed   by  
a

  message   in   the   screen.   Have   the  
system

  checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer  
or

  a   qualified   workshop.

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 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 ST

OP 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.
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   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 CITROËN
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 DSC 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 DSC
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

ASR 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 ASR 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 DSC OFF
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 CITROËN 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.

  their   seat   belt.
Good practice
The driver must ensure that
passengers use the seat belts correctly
and that they are all strapped in
securely  before   moving   off.
Wherever you are seated in the
vehicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even
  for   short   journeys.
The
  seat   belts   are   fitted   with   an   inertia  
reel

  which   automatically   adjusts   the  
length

  of   the   strap   to   your   size.
Do not use accessories (clothes pegs,
clips,
  safety   pins,   etc.)   which   allow   the  
seat

  belt   straps   to   fit   loosely.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly
  after   use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
has reeled in correctly and that the
buckle
  is   ready   to   accommodate   the  
tongue.
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of any impact, the
pretensioning device may be deployed
before

  and   independently   of   inflation  
of

  the   airbags.   It   instantly   tightens  
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Deployment of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge
of

  harmless   smoke   and   a   noise,   due  
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge

  incorporated   in   the   system.
The front passenger's seat may be
