Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with
parking.  It   detects   a   parking   space   then  
o

perates   the   steering   to   park   in   the   space.
It
  operates   the   steering   while   the   driver  
m

anages   the   accelerator,   brakes,   gears   and  
c

lutch   (manual   gearbox).   During   phases   of  
e

ntry   into   and   exit   from   a   parking   space,   the  
s

ystem provides visual and audible information
to
  the   driver   in   order   to   make   the   manoeuvres  
s

afe.   It   may   be   necessary   to   move   for wards  
a

nd   backwards   more   than   once. During
  a   manoeuvre   the   steering  
w

heel   turns   quickly:   do   not   hold   the  
s

teering   wheel,   do   not   place   your   hands  
b

etween   the   spokes   of   the   steering  
w

heel   and   take   care   with   loose   and  
b

ulky   clothing,   scarves,   handbags...  
T

here   is   a   risk   of   injury.
When
  Park   Assist   is   activated,   it  
p

revents   a   change   to   STOP   mode   of  
S

top   &   Start.   In   STOP   mode,   activation  
o

f   Park   Assist   restarts   the   engine.
The
  Park   Assist   system   cannot   in   any  
c

ircumstances replace the need for
vigilance
  on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The driver must remain in control
of
  their   vehicle   ensuring   that   the  
s

pace   remains   clear   throughout   the  
m

anoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors
may not detect small obstacles located
in
  their   blind   spots.
The
  driver   can   take   control   at   any   time   by  
g

ripping   the   steering   wheel. The
  Park   Assist   system   provides   assistance   for  t
he   following   manoeuvres:
A.

i

s   deactivated   after   these   4   cycles.  
I

f   you   think   that   your   vehicle   is   not  
p

ositioned correctly, you should then
take
  control   of   the   steering   to   carry   out  
t

he   manoeuvre.
The

ontact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Operating faults
In the event of a fault with the power
steering,   this   warning   lamp   flashes   in  
t

he instrument panel, accompanied
by
  a   message.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Switching off
If the lateral distance between your
vehicle   and   the   space   is   too   great,   the s

ystem may not be able to measure the
space.
Anything
  projecting   beyond   the   envelope
 o

f the vehicle (a ladder on the roof, for
example)
  is   not   taken   into   account   by   the
 P

ark   Assist   system   during   a   manoeuvre.
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered by road
dirt,
  ice   or   snow.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked
  by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q

ualified
 w
orkshop.
If
 
the
 
system
 
is
 
deactivated
 
during

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres,
  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
or
  more   tyres. The under-inflation detection system
does
  not   replace   the   need   for   vigilance  
o

n   the   part   of   the   driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check
  the   tyre   pressures   (including   the  
s

pare wheel) every month as well as
before
  a   long   journey.
Driving
  with   under-inflated   tyres   impairs  
r

oad   holding,   extends   braking   distances  
a

nd causes premature tyre wear,
particularly 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
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure
  label.
For more information on the
Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding
 s

ection.
Tyre
  pressures   should   be   checked  
w

hen the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
stopped
  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.

  good   or   rainy   weather,   by   both   day  a
nd   night,   the   front   foglamps   and   the  
r

ear   foglamps   are   prohibited.   In   these  
s

ituations, the power of their beams
may
  dazzle   other   drivers.   They   should  
o

nly   be   used   in   fog   or   falling   snow.
In these weather conditions, you should
switch
  on   the   foglamps   and   dipped  
b

eam headlamps manually, as the
sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light.
Do
  not   forget   to   switch   off   the   front   and  
r

ear   foglamps   when   they   are   no   longer  
n

ecessary.Switching off the lighting
when switching off the ignition
When the ignition is switched off, all of the lamps   switch   off   immediately,   except   for   the d

ipped   beam   headlamps   if   automatic   guide-
me-home
  lighting   is   activated.

They switch off automatically after a period
which  depends   on   the   state   of   charge   of   the b
