otor
  by   turning   the   key   to   position   3
without
  pressing   the   accelerator   pedal,  
u

ntil
 
the   engine   starts.   Once   the   engine   is

unning,   release   the   key.
Starting-switching off the engine
It has 3 positions:
- position 1 (Stop):
  insert   and   removing  
the
  key,
-
position 2 (Ignition on) :
  steering   column  
u

nlocked,   ignition   on,   Diesel   preheating,  
e

ngine

unning,
-
position 3 (Starting) .
Ignition switch
Switching off the engine leads to a loss o
f   braking   assistance.
Ignition on position (2)
It allows the use of the vehicle's electric equipment   or   portable   devices   to   be   charged.
Once
  the   state   of   charge   of   the   battery   drops  
t

o   the   reserve   level,   the   system   switches   to  
e

nergy   economy   mode:   the   power   supply   is  
c

ut   off   automatically   to   preserve   the   remaining  
b

attery   charge.
Avoid
  attaching   heavy   objects   to   the  
k

ey,   which   would   weigh   down   on   its  
b

lade   in   the   ignition   switch   and   could  
c

ause   a   malfunction.
It
  could   adversely   affect   the   deployment  
o

f   the   front   airbag.

Operating fault Switching off
F Turn wheel 1 to the "0" p osition. T
he   display   of   information   related   to   the  
c

ruise   control   disappears. When the cruise control is switched on,
be
  careful   if   you   maintain   the   pressure  o
n   one   of   the   programmed   speed  
c

hanging   buttons:   this   may   result   in   a  
v

ery   rapid   change   in   the   speed   of   your  
v

ehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on
slippery
  roads   or   in   heavy   traffic.
On a steep descent, the cruise control
will not be able to prevent the vehicle
from
  exceeding   the   programmed   speed.
On
  steep   climbs   or   when   towing,   the  
p

rogrammed   speed   may   not   be   reached  
o

r   maintained.
The
  use   of   mats   not   approved   by  
C

ITROËN   may   inter fere   with   the  
o

peration   of   the   cruise   control.
To
  avoid   any   risk   of   jamming   of   the  
ped

als:
-
 
e
nsure   that   the   mat   is   secured  
c

o r r e c t l y,
-
 
n

To
 
return
 
to
 
the
 
programmed
 
speed,
 
simply
 
r

elease the accelerator pedal until the

cruise
 
speed
 
is
 
reached
 
again.
Exceeding the programmed
speed
Once switched on, you can pause the cruise
control   at   any   time   by   pressing   button   4:   the  
s

creen   confirms   the   pause.
Pause
If the programmed speed is exceeded, the   displayed   speed   flashes.
Once the speed of the vehicle returns

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking, detecting a parking space then controlling the steering to park in the space.
I t   controls   the   steering   while   the   driver   manages   the   accelerator,   brakes,   gears   and   clutch   (manual   gearbox).   During   phases   of   entry   into   and   exit   from  
a

  parking   space,   the   system   provides   visual   and   audible   information   to   the   driver   in   order   to   make   the   manoeuvre   safe.   It   may   be   necessary   to   move  
f

or wards   and   backwards   more   than   once.
The
  Park   Assist   system   cannot   in   any  
c

ircumstances   replace   the   need   for  
v

igilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The
  driver   must   remain   in   control   of  
t

heir   vehicle   ensuring   that   the   space  
r

emains   clear   during   the   manoeuvre.
In
  some   circumstances,   the   sensors  
m

ay   not   detect   small   obstacles   located  
i

n   their   blind   spots. Changing
  tyre   sizes   (out-size   tyres,  
w

inter   tyres,   ...)   can   inter fere   with  
t

he   correct   operation   of   the   parking  
a

ssistance   system.
During
  a   manoeuvre   the   steering   wheel  
t

urns   quickly:   do   not   hold   the   steering  
w

heel, do not place your hand between
the
  spokes   of   the   steering   wheel   and  
t

ake   care   with   loose   and   bulky   clothing,  
s

carves,   handbags...   There   is   a   risk   of  
in

jury. For
  entry   into   a   parking   space   (parallel  
p

arking)   the   system   does   not   detect  
s

paces   which   are   clearly   much   smaller  
o

r   larger   than   the   size   of   the   vehicle.
This
  "parking   assistance"   system  
i

s   activated   automatically   during  
m

anoeuvres;   it   is   therefore   possible  
t

hat   a   symbol   comes   on   in   the   screen,  
a

ccompanied   by   an   audible   signal,  
w

ithout   affecting   the   manoeuvre.The
  selection   of   the   type   of   manoeuvre  
(

entering   or   exiting   a   parallel   parking  
s

pace)   prevents   a   change   to   STOP  
m

ode   of   Stop   &   Start.
In
