event of a serious side impact ap-
plied to all or part of the side impact
zone
B , perpendicular to the longi-
tudinal centreline of the vehicle on
a horizontal plane and directed from
the outside towards the inside of the
vehicle.

event of a serious side impact in or-
der to limit the risk of head injuries.
Each curtain airbag is incorporated
in the pillars and the upper part of
the passenger compartment. Operation
It is triggered at the same time as the
corresponding side airbag in the event
of a serious side impact applied to all or
part of the side impact zone
B , perpen-
dicular to the longitudinal centreline of
the vehicle on a horizontal plane and
directed from the outside towards the
inside of the vehicle.
The curtain airbag infl ates between
the front or rear occupant of the ve-
hicle and the windows.
In the event of a minor impact or
bump on the side of the vehicle or
if the vehicle rolls over, the airbag
may not be triggered.
The airbag is not triggered in the
event of a rear or front collision.

To immobilise the vehicle,
engine running
With the engine running and the ve-
hicle stationary, in order to immobi-
lise the vehicle you need to manually
apply the parking brake by pulling
on control A .
The application of the parking brake
is confi rmed by: - the lighting of warning lamp P on control A and
on the instrument panel,
- the display of a message "park- ing brake applied" on the multi-
function screen.
When the driver’s door is opened, a
beep is heard and a message dis-
played if the parking brake has not
been applied.
Before leaving the vehicle,
check that warning lamp P
on the instrument panel is
permanently lit. Particular situations
In certain situations (e.g. starting
the engine), the parking brake can
automatically alter its force. This is
normal operation.
To advance your vehicle (towing,
etc.) without starting the engine, but
with the ignition on, press on the
brake pedal and release the park-
ing brake
by pulling then releasing
control A .
The full release of the parking brake
is confi rmed by the extinction of
warning lamp P (red) on the instru-
ment panel and the display of a
message "parking brake released"
on the multifunction screen.
If the parking brake malfunctions

while applied or if the battery runs
fl at, an emergency release is always
possible.

Activation/Deactivation of the
automatic functions *
The automatic application when the
engine is switched off and the au-
tomatic release when you press
the accelerator can be deactivated.
Activation/deactivation is performed
using the confi guration menu of the
multifunction screen. To do so, select
"Personalisation/Confi guration/Defi ne
the Vehicle parameters/Driving assis-
tance/Automatic handbrake".
The deactivation of these
functions is confi rmed by the
lighting of this warning lamp
on the instrument panel.
With the automatic functions
deactivated, the application and
release of the parking brake are
done manually.

Automatic gearbox which offers a
choice between the ease of fully
automatic operation or the driving
pleasure of manual gear changing.
Therefore, you have a choice of two
driving modes:
- automatic operation for elec-
tronic control of the gears by the
gearbox,
- manual operation for sequen-
tial changing of the gears by the
driver.

 automatic mode: selector 1 in
position D ,

 sequential mode: selector 1 in
position M . The position of the selector is dis-
played on the instrument panel, on

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM
System which detects the involun-
tary crossing of longitudinal traffi c
lane markings on the ground (solid
or broken line).
Sensors, fi tted below the front
bumper, trigger a warning if the vehi-
cle drifts over a lane marking (speed
higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
This system is particularly useful on
motorways and main roads. Activation

 Press button A , the indicator
lamp comes on.
Deactivation

 Press button A again, the indica-
tor lamp switches off.
The status of the system remains
in the memory when the ignition is
switched off.
Detection
You are warned by the vibration of
the driver's seat cushion:
- on the right-hand side, if the marking on the ground has been
crossed on the right,
- on the left-hand side, if the mark- ing on the ground has been
crossed on the left.
No warning is transmitted while the
direction indicator is active and for
approximately 20 seconds after the
direction indicator is switched off.
A warning may be transmitted if a
direction marking (e.g. arrow) or
non-standard marking (e.g. graffi ti)
is crossed. Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction, the
service warning lamp comes on, ac-
companied by an audible signal and a
message on the multifunction screen.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
The lane departure warning system
cannot, in any circumstances, re-
place the need for vigilance and re-
sponsibility on the part of the driver. The detection may be impeded:
- if the sensors are dirty (mud, snow...),
- if the markings on the ground
are worn,
- if there is little contrast between the markings on the ground and
the road surface.

VISUAL AND AUDIBLE FRONT AND/OR REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE
System consisting of four proximity
sensors, installed in the front and/or
rear bumper.
It detects any obstacle (person, ve-
hicle, tree, barrier...) located behind
the vehicle, however, it will not be
able to detect obstacles located im-
mediately below the bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a road-
works cone or any other similar ob-
ject may be detected at the start of
the manoeuvre but may no longer
be detected when the vehicle moves
nearer to it. The parking assistance is
switched
off :
- when you exit reverse gear,
- when the speed is higher than 6 mph (10 km/h) in forward
gear,
- when the vehicle has been sta- tionary for more than three se-
conds in forward gear.
The parking assistance system
cannot, in any circumstances, re-
place the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the
driver.
The parking assistance is switched on :
- by engaging reverse gear,
- at a speed below 6 mph (10 km/h)
in forward gear.
This is accompanied by an audible
signal and/or displaying of the vehi-
cle on the multifunction screen.
The proximity information is indicated
by:
- an audible signal which be- comes more rapid as the vehicle
approaches the obstacle,
- a diagram on the multifunction screen, with blocks which move
closer to the vehicle.
The obstacle is located in relation to
the emission of the audible signal by
the speakers; front or rear and right
or left.
When the distance between the ve-
hicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately thirty centimetres, the
audible signal becomes continuous
and/or the "Danger" symbol appears,
depending on the multifunction screen
version.

152
IX
D R I V I N G In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered
with mud, ice or snow. When re-
verse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that
the sensors may be dirty.
When the vehicle is being driven
at a speed below approximately
6 mph (10 km/h), certain sourc-
es of noise (motorcycles, lorries,
pneumatic drills, ...) may trigger the
reversing audible signal.

 Press button A again, the warn-
ing lamp switches off, the system
is reactivated.
Reactivation
Deactivation

 Press button A , the warning lamp
comes on, the system is fully de-
activated.
The system will be deactivated au-
tomatically when a trailer is being
towed or when a bicycle carrier is
fi tted (vehicle fi tted with a towbar
or bicycle carrier recommended by
CITROËN). Operating fault
If an operating fault occurs, this warn-
ing lamp is displayed on the instrument
panel and/or a message appears on
the multifunction screen, accompa-
nied by an audible signal (short beep),
when reverse gear is engaged.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
