Malfunction
In the event of a cruise control
malfunction, dashes are displayed instead
of the cruise control speed setting.
This warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and an
onscreen message, to indicate a system
malfunction.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
The adaptive cruise control deactivates automatically if the use of a “space-
saver” type spare wheel is detected or in the
event of a malfunction of the lateral brake
lamps or trailer brake lamps (for approved
trailers).
Memorising speeds
This function, used only for the speed limiter
and programmable cruise control, lets you
save speed settings that will subsequently be
proposed for the purpose of configuring these
two systems.
You can memorise multiple speed settings for
each of the two systems.
By default, some speed settings are already
memorised.
As a safety measure, the driver must only change speed settings when stationary.
Changing a speed setting

Driving
Active Safety Brake with Collision Risk Alert and
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .


This system allows:
–
the driver to be warned that their vehicle is at
risk of collision with the vehicle in front,
–

a collision to be prevented, or its severity to be
limited, by reducing the vehicle’

s speed.
This system is comprised of three functions:
–

Collision
Risk Alert,
–

Intelligent emergency braking assistance,
–


Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency
braking).


The vehicle has a camera located at the top of
the windscreen.
This system does not avoid the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
This system is designed to assist the driver
and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously
monitor the state of the traffic, observing the
driving regulations.
As soon as the system detects a potential obstacle, it prepares the braking
circuit in case automatic braking is needed.
This may cause a slight noise and a slight
sensation of deceleration.
Operating conditions and
limits
The ESC system must not be faulty.
The DSC/ASR systems must not be deactivated.
All passenger seat belts must be fastened.
Driving at a steady speed on roads with few
bends is required.
In the following cases, deactivating the system
via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:
–

towing a trailer
,
–

carrying long objects on roof bars or roof rack,
–


with snow chains fitted,
–


before using an automatic car wash, with the
engine running,
–


before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in
a workshop,
–


towed vehicle, engine running,
– Following an impact to the windscreen close to
the detection camera.
The system is automatically deactivated after the use of certain "space-saver"
type spare wheels is detected (smaller
diameter).
The system is automatically deactivated
after detection of a fault with the brake pedal
switch or with at least two brake lamps.
It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
Consequently, always stay in control of your
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time
to avoid an accident.
After an impact, the function automatically stops operating. Contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to
have the system checked.
Collision Risk Alert
It warns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of
collision with the vehicle in front or a pedestrian
present in their traffic lane.
Operation
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert threshold
chosen by the driver, several different levels
of alert may be triggered and displayed in the
instrument panel.
They take account of the vehicle dynamics, the
speeds of your vehicle and the one in front, the
environmental conditions and the operation of
the vehicle (cornering, actions on the pedals,
etc.) to trigger the alert at the best moment.
Level 1 (orange): visual alert only,
signalling that the vehicle in front is very
close.
The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.
Level 2 (red): visual and audible alert,
signalling that a collision is imminent.
The message "Brake! " is displayed.
Level 3: finally, in some cases, a haptic alert
in the form of micro-braking can be given,
confirming the risk of collision.
Where the speed of your vehicle is too
high approaching another vehicle, the
first level of alert may not be displayed: the
level 2 alert may be displayed directly.
Important: the level 1 alert is never displayed
for a stationary obstacle or when the " Close"
trigger threshold has been selected.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
This threshold determines how you wish to be
warned of the presence of a moving or stationary
vehicle in front of you, or a pedestrian present in
your traffic lane.

trigger threshold has been selected.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
This threshold determines how you wish to be
warned of the presence of a moving or stationary
vehicle in front of you, or a pedestrian present in
your traffic lane.
The current threshold can be modified via the vehicle
configuration menu.
You can select one of three pre-defined
thresholds:
–

"Distant",
–

"Normal",
–

"Close".
The last threshold selected is memorised when
the ignition is switched off.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid a
collision, this system will supplement the braking,
within the limits of the laws of physics.
This assistance will only be provided if you press
the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake

This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, intervenes following the alerts if the
driver does not react quickly enough and does
not operate the vehicle's brakes.
It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a
collision where the driver fails to react.
Operation
The system operates under the following
conditions:
–

The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph
(60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
–


The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle is detected.

124
Driving
– The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and
53 mph (10 km/h and 85 km/h) when a moving
vehicle is detected.
This warning lamp flashes (for about 10 seconds) once the function is acting on
the vehicle's brakes.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, keep the brake
pedal pressed down to prevent the vehicle from
starting off again.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic
emergency braking until the vehicle comes to a
complete stop, the engine may stall.
The driver can maintain control of the vehicle at any time by sharply turning the
steering wheel and/or pressing the
accelerator pedal.
Operation of the function may be felt by
slight vibration in the brake pedal.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the
automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2
seconds.
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
This system can be deactivated or activated via
the vehicle settings menu.
Deactivation of the system is signalled by
the illumination of this indicator lamp,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Malfunction
In the event of a system malfunction, this
warning lamp comes on on the instrument
panel, accompanied by an onscreen message
and an audible signal.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
If these warning lamps come on
after the engine has been switched
off and then restarted, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Active Lane Departure Warning System
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
Using a camera located at the top of the
windscreen to identify lane markings on the road
and at the edges of the road (depending on
version), the system corrects the trajectory of the
vehicle while alerting the driver if it detects a risk
of unintentionally crossing a line or hard shoulder
(depending on version).
This system is particularly useful on motorways
and main roads.


Conditions for operation
– The speed of the vehicle must be between 40
and 1 12 mph (65 and 180 km/h).
–

The traffic lane must be delimited by a dividing
line.
–


The driver must hold the wheel with both
hands.
–


The change of trajectory must not be
accompanied by operation of the direction
indicators.
–


The ESC system must be activated and not
faulty

.
The system helps the driver only when there is a risk of the vehicle involuntarily
wandering from the lane it is being driven in. It
does not manage the safe driving distance,
the speed of the vehicle or the brakes.
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 dividing line marking disappears).
Operation
Once the system identifies a risk of the vehicle
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings

6detected or a lane limit (e.g. grass border), it
makes the correction to the trajectory necessary
to return the vehicle to its initial path.
The driver will notice a turning movement of the
steering wheel.
This warning lamp flashes during trajectory correction.
The driver can prevent the correction by keeping a firm grip on the wheel (during
an avoiding manoeuvre, for example).
The correction is interrupted if the direction
indicators are operated.


While the direction indicators are on and for
a few seconds after switching them off, the
system considers that any change of trajectory
is voluntary and no correction is triggered during
this period.
If the system detects that the driver is not
holding the wheel firmly enough during
an automatic correction of trajectory, it
interrupts the correction. An alert is triggered
to encourage the driver to take back control of
the vehicle.

that the correction will not be enough and that a solid line
will be crossed (orange line): the driver is warned that they
must provide additional trajectory adjustment.
The duration of audible warnings will increase if multiple
corrections are performed in quick succession. The
warning will become continuous, persisting until the driver
responds.
This message may also be displayed if you have your
hands on the steering wheel.
Operating limits
The system goes into standby automatically in
the following cases:
– ESC deactivated or operation triggered,
– speed below 40 mph (65 km/h) or greater than
112 mph (180 km/h),
– electrical connection of a trailer,
– use of the "space-saver" spare wheel detected
(as detection is not immediate, deactivation of
the system is recommended),
– dynamic driving style detected, pressure on
the brake or accelerator pedal,
– driving where there are no lane markings,
– activation of the direction indicators,
– crossing the inside line on a bend,
– driving in a tight corner,
– inactivity by the driver detected during
correction.
During a correction, if the driver is
inactive (not holding the steering wheel
for 10 seconds), a warning message appears.
If the driver remains inactive (not holding
the steering wheel for 2 more seconds), the
correction is interrupted.
The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
– insufficient contrast between the road
surface and the shoulders (e.g. shade),
– lane markings worn, hidden (snow, mud) or
multiple (roadworks, etc.),

Blind Spot Monitoring
System
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .


This system includes sensors, placed on the
sides of the bumpers, and warns the driver of
the potentially dangerous presence of another
vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle) in the blind spot
areas of their vehicle (areas hidden
from the
driver's field of vision).

128
Driving

A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the
side in question:
–
fixed
, immediately, when being overtaken;
–

flashing , after a delay of about one second,
when overtaking a vehicle slowly

, and when the
direction indicator is used.
Activation / Deactivation
Activation or deactivation is set via the vehicle
configuration menu.
The system state remains in memory when the ignition is switched off.
The system is automatically deactivated when towing with a towbar approved by
CITROËN.
Conditions for operation
– All vehicles are moving in the same direction
and in adjacent lanes.
–

The speed of your vehicle must be between 7
and 87 mph (12 and 140

km/h). –

When overtaking a vehicle, the speed
difference is less than 6
mph (10 km/h).
–
When overtaken by a vehicle, the speed
difference is less than 16
mph (25 km/h).
–

No alert is triggered in the following conditions:
– In the presence of non-moving objects (parked
vehicles, barriers, street lamps, road signs, etc.).
–

Oncoming traffic.
–


Driving on a winding road or a sharp corner
.
–

When overtaking or being overtaken by a very
long vehicle (lorry

, bus, etc.) that is detected
in the rear blind spot but is also present in the
driver’s front field of vision.
–

When overtaking quickly
.
–

In very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in
front and behind are confused with a lorry or a
stationary object.
Malfunction
If the event of malfunction, this warning
lamp comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions
(rain, hail, etc.).
In particular, driving on a wet surface or
moving from a dry area to a wet area can
cause false alerts (for example, the presence
of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot
angle is interpreted as a vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow.
Take care not to cover the warning zone in
the door mirrors or the detection zones on the
front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels
or other objects; they may hamper correct
operation of the system.
Active Blind Spot Monitoring System
In addition to the fixed warning lamp in the door
mirror on the side in question, a correction of
trajectory will be felt if you attempt to cross a
lane marking with the direction indicators on, to
help you avoid a collision.
This system is the combination of the Active
Lane Departure Warning System and Blind Spot
Monitoring System.
These two functions must be activated and in
operation.
