The  Stop   &   Start   system   makes   use   of

t

he   system   go   to   a   qualified   workshop  
w

w

hich   a   CITROËN   dealer   is   able   to  
pro

Before

s

ystem   to   avoid   any   risk   of   injury  
r

esulting   from   automatic   operation   of

Maintenance
This system requires a 12 V battery with a special   specification   and   technology   (reference  
n

umbers   available   from   CITROËN   dealers).
Fitting
  a   battery   not   listed   by   CITROËN  
i

ntroduces   the   risk   of   malfunction   of   the  
s

ystem.
For
  charging,   use   a   12   V   charger   and   do   not  
r

everse   the   polarity.

active cruise control
This systems allows, in addition to maintaining your   vehicle's   speed   at   a   value   that   you  
h

ave   defined,   the   inter-vehicle   time   you   have  
s

elected   between   your   vehicle   and   the   one  
a

head   to   be   maintained.Principles of operation
Using a radar with a range of about 100 metres, located   at   the   front   of   the   vehicle,   this   system  
d

etects   a   vehicle   running   in   front   of   your  
v

ehicle.
It
  automatically   adapts   the   speed   of   the   vehicle  
t

o   that   of   the   vehicle   in   front.
If
  the   vehicle   in   front   is   running   more   slowly,  
t

he   system   progressively   reduces   the   speed   of  
y

our   vehicle   using   just   engine   braking   (as   if   the  
d

river   had   pressed   the   "-"
  button).
If
  your   vehicle   is   too   close   to   or   approaching  
t

oo   quickly   the   vehicle   in   front,   the   cruise  
c

ontrol   is   automatically   deactivated.   The  
d

river   is   then   alerted   by   an   audible   signal,  
a

ccompanied   by   a   message.
If
  the   vehicle   in   front   accelerates   or   changes  
l

ane,   the   active   cruise   control   progressively  
a

ccelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed
 s

peed.
If
  the   driver   operates   a   direction   indicator   to  
t

he   left   (left   hand   drive)   or   the   right   (right   hand  
d

rive),   to   overtake   a   slower   vehicle,   the   active  
c

ruise   control   allows   your   vehicle   to   temporarily  
a

pproach the vehicle in front to assist the
overtaking
 ma

noeuvre,
 t
hough
 n
ever
 e
xceeding
 t

he   programmed   speed. The active cruise control operates by
day
  and   at   night,   in   fog   or   in   moderate  
r

ainfall.
The system does not act on the braking system,   but   works   only   with   engine   braking.
The
  regulation   range   is   limited:   there   will
 n

o   longer   be   any   adjustment   of   speed   if   the
 d

ifference   between   the   programmed   speed
 s

etting   and   the   speed   of   the   vehicle   in   front
 b

ecomes   too   high   (18   mph   (30   km/h)).
The selection of this system deactivates the   inter-vehicle   time   function.
If
  the   difference   between   the  
p

rogrammed   speed   setting   and   the  
s

peed   of   the   vehicle   in   front   is   too  
g

reat,   the   speed   cannot   be   adjusted:  
t

he   cruise   control   is   automatically  
d

eactivated.Choice of the type of cruise control
If you want to use the standard cruise control, it is possible to deactivate the active cruise
control in the " Driving assistance "
  menu   of  
t

he   the   touch   screen   tablet.
On
  pressing   the   button,   the   green  
i

ndicator   lamp   goes   off.
The
  standard   cruise   control   is   available.
Refer to the previous section for the
details
  of   the   operation   of   the   standard  
c

ruise   control.
This
  is   confirmed   by   the   display   of  
t

his   symbol   in   the   control.
You can return to the active cruise
control
  at   any   time   by   pressing   this  
bu

etection   of   a   vehicle   that   is   too   close   or   running   at   a   speed   lower   than   your  
v

ehicle's   cruise   speed   setting.
The
  system   uses   engine   braking   to   slow   your   vehicle   and   then   hold   it   at   the   speed   of  
t

he   vehicle   in   front   so   as   to   maintain   the   programmed   inter-vehicle   time.
The
  regulation   range   is   limited   to   a   maximum   difference   of   20   mph   (30   km/h)  
b

etween   the   speed   setting   and   the   speed   of   the   vehicle   ahead.

The active cruise control uses only engine braking   to   slow   the   vehicle.   Consequently   the  
v

ehicle   looses   speed   slowly,   as   when   releasing  
t

he   accelerator   pedal.
The
  system   is   paused   automatically:
-
 
i
f   the   vehicle   in   front   slows   down   to   much  
o

r   too   suddenly,   and   the   driver   does   not  
b

rake,
-
 
i
f   a   vehicle   comes   between   your   vehicle  
a

nd   the   vehicle   in   front,
-
 
i
f   the   system   does   not   slow   the   vehicle  
e

nough   to   continue   to   maintain   a   safe  
d

istance,   for   example   when   descending   a  
s

teep   hill.
Limits of operation
As the radar's field of view is quite narrow, it is possible   that   the   system   may   not   detect:
The

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking,   detecting   a   parking   space   then  
c

ontrolling   the   steering   to   park   in   the   space.
It
  controls   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  
t

o   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   wheel  
t

urns   quickly:   do   not   hold   the   steering  
w

heel,   do   not   place   your   hand   between  
t

he   spokes   of   the   steering   wheel   and  
t

ake   care   with   loose   and   bulky   clothing,  
s

carves,   handbags...   There   is   a   risk   of

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  
v

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

f   their   vehicle   ensuring   that   the  
s

pace   remains   clear   throughout   the  
m

anoeuvre.
In
  some   circumstances,   the   sensors  
m

ay   not   detect   small   obstacles   located  
i

n   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:
