Operating fault
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop &
Start
system
to
avoid
any
risk
of
injury
resulting
from
automatic
operation
of START
mode.
This
system
requires
a
specific
battery
with
a
special
specification
and
technol
-
ogy
(reference
numbers
available
from
a
CITROËN
dealer
or
a
qualified
work

shop).
Fitting
a
battery
not
listed
by
CITROËN
introduces
the
risk
of
mal
-
function
of the system.
The
Stop
&
Start
system
makes
use
of
advanced
technology
.
All
work
on
this
type
of
battery
must
be
done
only
by
a
CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in ST

BLIND SPOT SENSORS
This driving assistance system warns the
driver of the presence of another
vehicle
in
the
blind
spot
angle
of
their
vehicle
(areas
masked
from
the
driver's
field
of
vision),
as
soon
as
this
presents
a
potential danger.
Operation
F On switching on the ignition, or en -
gine running, press this button to
activate
the
function;
the
warning
lamp
comes on.
This
system
is
designed
to
im
-
prove
safety
when

and
is
in
no
circumstances
a
substitute
for
the use of the interior rear
view
mirror
and
door
mirrors.
It
is
the
driver's
responsibility
to
constantly
check
the
traffic,
to
asses
the
distances
and
relative
speeds
of
other
vehicles
and
to
predict
their
movements
before
deciding
whether
to
change
lane.
The
blind
spot
sensor
system
can
never
replace
the
need
for
vigilance
on
the
part
of
the
driver
. Sensors
fitted
in
the
front
and
rear
bum
-
pers
monitor the blind spots.
A warning
lamp
appears
in
the
door
mirror
on
the

question:
-
immediately
,
when
being
overtaken,
-
after
a

conditions (rain, hail...).
In
particular
,
driving
on
a
wet
sur

face
or
moving
from

dry
area
to
a wet area can cause false alerts
(for
example,
the

is
interpreted
as
a

are
not
covered
by
mud, ice or snow.
