Operation
Example:
- Y ou   are   in   third   gear.
-
 
Y
ou   press   the   accelerator   pedal.
-
 
T
he   system   may   suggest   that   you   engage  
a

  higher   gear.
Depending
  on   the   driving   situation   and   your  
v

ehicle's   equipment,   the   system   may   advise  
y

ou   to   change   gear.
The   gear   engagement   recommendations   must  
n

ot   be   considered   compulsory.   In   fact,   the  
c

onfiguration   of   the   road,   the   amount   of   traffic  
a

nd   safety   remain   determining   factors   when  
c

hoosing   the   best   gear.   Therefore,   the   driver  
r

emains   responsible   for   deciding   whether   or   not  
t

o   follow   the   advice   given   by   the   system.
This   function   cannot   be   deactivated.
The   information   appears   in   the  
i

nstrument   panel   in   the   form   of   an  
a

r row. The
  system   adapts   its   gear   change  
r

ecommendation   according   to   the  d
riving   conditions   (slope,   load, ...)   and  t
he   demands   of   the   driver   (power,  
a

cceleration,   braking, ...).

With
  an   ETG   electronic   gearbox,   the

Maintenance
The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V b
attery   of   a   special   specification   and  
t

echnology.
All
  work   on   this   type   of   battery   must   be  
d

one   only   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q

ualified
 w
orkshop.
For

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressures in the four t
yres,   once   the   vehicle   is   moving.
It
  compares   the   information   given   by   the   four  
w

heel   speed   sensors   with   reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed .
The
  system   triggers   an   alert   as   soon   as   it  
d

etects   a   drop   in   the   inflation   pressure   of   one  
o

r   more   tyres. The
  under-inflation   detection   system  
d

oes   not   replace   the   need   for   vigilance  
o

n   the   part   of   the   driver.
This   system   does   not   avoid   the   need   to  
c

heck   the   tyre   pressures   (including   the  
s

pare   wheel)   every   month   as   well   as  
b

efore   a   long   journey.
Driving   with   under-inflated   tyres   impairs  
r

oad   holding,   extends   braking   distances  
a

nd   causes   premature   tyre   wear,  p
articularly   under   arduous   conditions  (
high   loading,   high   speed,   long   journey).
System
  which   automatically   checks   the   pressures   of   the   tyres   while   driving.
The   inflation   pressures   defined   for  
y

our   vehicle   can   be   found   on   the   tyre  
p

ressure   label.
For   more   information   on   the  
i

dentification   markings,   refer   to   the  c
orresponding s ection.
Tyre   pressures   should   be   checked  
w

hen   the   tyres   are   "cold"   (vehicle  
s

topped   for   1   hour   or   after   a   journey   of  
l

ess   than   6   miles   (10   km)   at   moderate  
s

peeds).
Other wise
  (when   hot),   add   0.3   bar   to  
t

he   pressures   shown   on   the   label.
Driving
  with   under-inflated   tyres  
i

ncreases   fuel   consumption.

Active City Brake
Active City B rake  i s  a  d riving  a ssistance  s ystem  t
hat   aims   to   avoid   a   frontal   collision   or   reduce  
t

he   speed   of   an   impact   if   the   driver   does   not  
r

eact   or   reacts   too   late   (brake   application   too  
l

ate). This
  system   is   designed   to   improve  
d

riving   safety.
It
  remains   the   driver's   responsibility   to  
c

ontinuously   monitor   the   state   of   the  
t

raffic   and   to   assess   the   distances   and  
r

elative   speeds   of   other   vehicles.
Active
  City   Brake   can   in   no  
c

ircumstances   replace   the   need   for  
v

igilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
Never
  look   at   the   laser   sensor   through  
a

n   optical   instrument   (magnifying   glass,  
m

icroscope...)   at   a   distance   of   less   than  
1

0   centimetres:   risk   of   eye   injury.Automatic
  braking   occurs   later   than   if  
d

one   by   the   driver,   so   as   to   intervene  
o

nly   when   there   is   a   high   risk   of  
c

ollision.Principle
Using a laser sensor and a camera located at the   top   of   the   windscreen,   this   system   detects  
a

  vehicle   running   in   the   same   direction   or  
s

tationary   ahead   of   your   vehicle.
When
  necessary,   the   vehicle's   braking   system  
i

s   operated   automatically   to   reduce   the   speed

The driver must ensure that passengers use the   seat   belts   correctly   and   that   they   are   all  
f

astened   before   setting   off.
Wherever
  you   are   seated   in   the   vehicle,  
a

lways fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
Do
  not   interchange   the   seat   belt   buckles   as  
t

hey   will   not   fulfil   their   role   fully.
The
  seat   belts   are   fitted   with   an   inertia   reel  
p

ermitting   automatic   adjustment   of   the  
l

ength   of   the   strap   to   your   size.   The   seat   belt  
i

s   stowed   automatically   when   not   in   use.
Before
  and   after   use,   ensure   that   the   seat  
b

elt   is   reeled   in   correctly.
The
  lower   part   of   the   strap   must   be  
p

ositioned   as   low   as   possible   on   the   pelvis.
The
  upper   part   must   be   positioned   in   the  
h

ollow   of   the   shoulder.
The
  inertia   reels   are   fitted   with   an   automatic  
l

ocking   device   which   comes   into   operation   in  
t

he   event   of   a   collision,   emergency   braking  
o

r   if   the   vehicle   rolls   over.   You   can   release  
t

he   device   by   pulling   the   strap   firmly   and  
t

hen   releasing   it   so   that   it   reels   in   slightly.Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is less   than   12   years   old   or   shorter   than   one  
a

nd   a   half   metres.
Never
  use   the   same   seat   belt   to   secure   more  
t

han   one   person.
Never
  allow   a   child   to   travel   on   your   lap.
For
  more   information   on   child   seats,   refer   to  
t

he   corresponding   section.
In

In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of the impact , the
pretensioning
  device   may   be   deployed  
b

efore   and   independently   of   the   airbags.  
D

eployment   of   the   pretensioners   is  
a

ccompanied   by   a   slight   discharge   of  
h

armless   smoke   and   a   noise,   due   to   the  
a

ctivation   of   the   pyrotechnic   cartridge  
i

ncorporated   in   the   system.
In
  all   cases,   the   airbag   warning   lamp  
c

omes on.
Following
  an   impact,   have   the   seat   belts  
s

ystem   checked,   and   if   necessary   replaced,  
b

y   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w
