C1_en_Chap06_securite_ed01-2016
Never leave accumulations of snow or any   object   projecting   above   the   bonnet  
o

r   in   front   of   the   roof:   this   might   fall   into  
t

he   field   of   vision   of   the   sensor   and  
g

enerate   a   detection.
Operating limits
The system  o nly  d etects  v ehicles  (cars,  lorries) t
hat   are   stationary   or   moving   in   the   same  
d

irection   as   your   vehicle. In
  difficult   weather   conditions   (very  
h

eavy   rain,   snow,   fog,   hail...),   braking  
d

istances   increase,   which   can   reduce  
t

he   ability   of   the   system   to   avoid   a  
c

ollision.
The
  driver   must   therefore   remain  
par

ticularly
 v
igilant.
The
  system   is   not   triggered   or   is   interrupted   if  
t

he
 d
river:
-
 
a
ccelerates   strongly   (even   if   the   speed  
l

imiter   is   on),
-
 
o
r   turns   the   steering   wheel   suddenly  
(

avoiding
 m
anoeuvre).
Detection
  capability   is   less   effective   if:
-
 
y
ou   are   driving   on   roads   with   pronounced  
b

ends   and/or   on   roads   in   poor   condition,
-
 
y
our   vehicle   is   excessively   loaded,   as  
t

his   changes   the   horizontal   attitude   of   the  
v

ehicle.
-
 
y
our   vehicle   skids.
It
  does   not   detect   small   vehicles  
(

bicycles,   motorcycles),   pedestrians   or  
a

nimals,   nor   non-reflective   stationary  
ob

jects.Unwanted triggering of the system
It is possible for the system to detect a risk of imminent   collision   and   start   working,   in   the  
fo

llowing
 c
onditions
 in par
ticular:
-
 
d
etection   of   an   object   located   close   to   the  
e

dge   of   the   road   entering   a   corner   (safety  
b

arrier,   lamp   post   or   road   sign),
-
 
d
etection   of   a   structure   located   at   the   top  
o

r   bottom   of   a   steep   slope   (advertising  
h

oarding,   steet   lighting),
-
 
d
etection   of   reflective   objects   (central  
r

eservation...)   in   the   road,
-
 
d
etection   of   the   upper   bar   of   a   bridge   or   a  
t

raffic   light   gantry,
-
 
p
assing   a   vehicle   travelling   in   the   other  
d

irection   in   a   corner,
-
 
p
assing   a   vehicle   traveling   in   the   other  
d

irection,   at   a   crossroads,   when   your  
v

ehicle   is   turning   left   or   right,
-
 
i
f   the   vehicle   ahead   of   you   sends   up   water  
o

r snow,
-
 
i
f   your   vehicle   stops   very   close   to   an  
ov

erhanging   wall   or   other   vehicles,
-
 
w
hen   your   vehicle   closes   rapidly   on   the  
v

ehicle
 a
head,
-
 
i
f   the   vehicle   is   raised   or   lowered,
-
 
i
f   the   vehicle   passes   through   a   plastic  
c

urtain,
-
 
i
f   driving   through   mist   or   smoke,
-
 
i
f   the   sensor   is   misaligned   (following  
r

eplacement   after   a   collision).

Operating faults
Sensor fault
The operation of the laser sensor may suffer inter ference   from   accumulations   of   dirt   or  
m

isting   of   the   windscreen   or   the   presence   of  
a

n   object   causing   an   obstruction   (e.g.:   bonnet  
ope

n). In
  this   case   you   are   warned   by   the  
d

isplay   of   this   flashing   warning   lamp  
i

n   the   instrument   panel.
Use
  the   windscreen   demisting   and   regularly  
c

lean   the   area   of   the   windscreen   in   front   of   the  
sen

sor.Do
  not   stick   or   other wise   fix   any   object  
o

n   the   windscreen   in   front   of   the   sensor.
System fault
In the event of a malfunction of the   system,   you   are   warned   by   the  
d

isplay   of   this   flashing   warning   lamp  
i

n   the   instrument   panel.
Have
 
the
 
system   checked   by   a   CITROËN  
d

ealer
 
or
 
a   qualified   workshop.
In
 
the   event   of   an   impact   to   the  
w

indscreen   at   the   sensor,   deactivate  
t

he
  system   and   contact   a   CITROËN  
d

ealer   or   a   qualified   workshop to   have  
y

our   windscreen   replaced.
Never
  try   to   remove,   adjust   or   test   the  
sen

sor.
Only
  a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop   is   able   to   work   on   the   system.

Because of the presence of electrical
equipment
 
under
 
the
 
bonnet,
 
it
 
is
 
r

ecommended
 
that
 
exposure
 
to
 
water
 
(

rain,

Checking levels
Take care when working under the bonnet,   as   certain   areas   of   the   engine  
m

ay   be   extremely   hot   (risk   of   burns)   and  
t

he   cooling   fan   could   start   at   any   time  
(

even   with   the   ignition   off).
Engine oil level
The check of the oil level is carried out   with   the   dipstick,   located   under  
t

he   bonnet.   For   the   position   of   the  
d

ipstick,   refer   to   the   under-bonnet  
v

iew   on   a   previous   page.
Checking with dipstick
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
I f   a   level   drops   significantly,   have   the   corresponding   system   checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
To
  ensure   the   accuracy   of   the   reading,  
y

our   vehicle   must   be   on   a   level  
s

ur face,   with   the   engine   off   for   at   least  
3

0 minutes.
It
  is   normal   to   top   up   the   oil   level   between  
t

wo   services   (or   oil   changes).   CITROËN  
r

ecommends   that   you   check   the   level,   and   top  
u

p   if   necessary,   every   3   000   miles   (5   000   km). If
  you   find   that   the   oil   level   is   above   the   A   mark  
o

r below the B   mark,   do not star t the engine.
-
 
I
f   the   level   is   above   the   MAX
 
mark   (risk  
o

f   engine   damage),   contact   a   CITROËN  
d

ealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
-
 
I
f   the   level   is   below   the   MIN
 
mark,   you  
m

ust   top-up   the   engine   oil.
Refer
  to   the   under-bonnet   view   for   the   location  
o

f   the   dipstick   on   your   vehicle.
F
 
T

efit   the   dipstick   and   push   it   fully   down,  
t

hen   pull   it   out   again   for   a   visual   check   of  
t

he   oil   level:   the   level   must   be   between   the  
t

wo   marks   A   and   B.
