With dipped beams or main beams, the Directional headlamps function turns the headlamps in the direction the road ahead is taking. Your vision on bends is considerably enhanced.
This function is activated once your vehicle speed reaches 10 km/h (6 mph) and stops when your speed decreases to 5 km/h (3 mph).Note: An automatic correction of the beam height enables you not to dazzle other drivers.

Starting the engine with an assisting battery
If the battery is discharged, it is possible to use either a separate emergency battery or a battery on another vehicle.
If you use the battery on another vehicle, stop the engine on the latter. The two vehicles must not come into direct contact with each other.
Check that the assisting battery has suffi cient voltage (12 V).
Lift up the pegs to remove the front left-hand headlamp cover.
Connect the cables according to the order indicated in the dia-ordergram.
A Pole “+” of the broken down vehicle (Under the red cover).B Assisting battery.C Pole “–” of the broken down vehicle (Under the bonnet).
Check that the leads are well secured (risk of sparks).
Start the engine of the assist-ing vehicle. Let the engine run for around 1 minute at a slightly accel-erated idle.
Operate the starter on the vehicle being assisted.
It is essential to follow the indi-cated sequence correctly.
Never approach with a fl ame or create sparks in the vi
cinity of the battery (explosive gas).
The battery contains dilute sulphuric acid which is hig hly corrosive.
When handling batteries, always protect your face and es pecially your eyes.
In the event of any contact with the skin, rinse immediatel y with copious amounts of fresh water.
For any battery replacement, contact a CITROËN dealer.
Do not touch the leads during the operation.
Do not lean over the batteries.
Disconnect the cables in reverse order, making sure they do not touch together.
Advice
