SPEED LIMITER

System which prevents the vehi-
cle from exceeding the speed pro-
grammed by the driver.
When the limit speed is reached, the
accelerator pedal no longer has any
effect.
The speed limiter is switched on
manually: a speed of at least 20 mph
(approx. 30 km/h) must be pro-
grammed.
The speed limiter can in no way re-
place respect for speed limits or vigi-
lance and responsibility on the part
of the driver.

Steering mounted controls

DRIVING
In the event of a steep descent or
under excessive acceleration, the
speed limiter (which does not act
on the brakes) may not be able to
prevent the vehicle from exceeding
the programmed speed.
Use of a fl oor mat other than that
recommended by CITROËN may
affect the normal operation of the
accelerator pedal and hamper the
operation of the speed limiter.
Floor mats approved by CITROËN
are fi tted with a 3rd fi xing located in
the pedal area to avoid any risk of
interference with the pedals.

Suspension/Resumption



)

Overriding the programmed
speed
The accelerator pedal has an end-
of-travel switch. In order to exceed
the memorised maximum speed at
any time, you can press the pedal
all the way down. While the speed
is being exceeded, the speed dis-
played in zone A
will fl ash. You have
only to release the accelerator pedal
to return below the maximum speed,
to restore the function.
The speed will also fl ash if the speed
limiter is not able to prevent the vehi-
cle from exceeding the programmed

PARKING SPACE SENSOR

System which measures the parking
space available between two vehi-
cles or obstacles. It measures the
size of the space and gives you in-
formation on:


- the possibility of fi tting into a
free space, depending on the
dimensions of your vehicle and
the distances necessary for your
manoeuvring,

- the level of diffi culty of the ma-
noeuvre to be performed.
The system does not measure spac-
es which are clearly much smaller or
larger than the size of the vehicle.

Displays in the instrument panel

The parking space sensor function
warning lamp can have three different
states:


- off:
the function is not selected,

- on fi xed:
the function is selected
but the conditions for measuring
are not yet met (direction indi-
cator not operating, speed too
high) or the measurement is ter-
minated.

- fl ashing:
measurement is in
progress or the message is be-
ing displayed. You can select the "parking space
sensor" function by pressing but-
ton A.
The fi xed illumination of the
warning lamp indicates that the
function is selected.
During the measurement, the mes-
sage "Measurement in progress -
Vmax 20 km/h (12 mph)" is displayed in the instrument panel screen.

IX

DRIVING

Operation

You have identifi ed a parking space:


)

Press button A
to select the function.


)
Activate the direction indicator
on the side where the space is to
be measured.

)
During measurement, go forward
the length of the space, at a speed
less than 12 mph (approx. 20 km/h),
to prepare for your manoeuvre.
The system then measures the size
of the space.

)

The system informs you of the level of
diffi culty of the manoeuvre via a mes-
sage in the instrument panel screen
accompanied by an audible signal.

)
Depending on the message issued
by the system, you may or may not
be able to perform the manoeuvre.
The function displays the following
types of message:

Parking YES


Parking
DIFFICULT


Parking NO
The function deselects itself auto-
matically:


- when you engage reverse gear,

- when you switch off the ignition,

- if measurement is not requested,

- within fi ve minutes of selection of
the function,

- if the vehicle speed exceeds the
threshold of 45 mph (approx.
70 km/h) for one minute.
If the lateral distance between your
vehicle and the parking space is too
large, the system may not be able to
measure the space.
The function remains available af-
ter each measurement and thus can
measure more than one space during
your search.
In bad weather conditions or in
winter, make sure that the sensors
are not covered by dirt, or by ice or
snow.
The parking space sensor function
deactivates the front parking sensors
during space measurement when
you are in forward gear.
If there is a fault, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.

IX

DRIVING
The parking sensors system cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the
need for vigilance and responsibility
on the part of the driver.





VISUAL AND AUDIBLE
FRONT AND/OR REAR
PARKING SENSORS
System consisting of proximity sensors,
installed in the front and/or rear bumper.
It detects any obstacle (person, ve-
hicle, tree, barrier...) located in front of
or behind the vehicle, however, it will
not be able to detect obstacles located
immediately 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 sensors are 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
display, 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 con-
tinuous and/or the "Danger" symbol
appears, depending on the multi-
function screen version.
The parking sensors are 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 station-
ary for more than three seconds in
forward gear.
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).

DRIVING

Reactivation

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 speed of the vehicle is
below about 6 mph (10 km/h), some
sources of noise (motorcycle, lorry,
pneumatic drill, ...) may trigger the
audible parking sensor signals.


)
Press button A
again, the warning
lamp switches off, the system is
reactivated.









"HYDRACTIVE III +"
ELECTRONIC SUSPENSION
The suspension automatically and
instantly adjusts to different driving
styles and to the profi le of the road,
providing the best compromise be-
tween occupant comfort and vehicle
road holding.
The system alternates between soft
and fi rm suspension settings, maxi-
mising comfort at the same time as
constantly ensuring the highest level
of safety. It also automatically cor-
rects ride height, according to the
vehicle load and driving conditions.
In addition, the "Hydractive III +" sys-
tem allows you to choose between
two modes of suspension.
A change of suspension mode can
be made either when the vehicle is
moving or when stationary, by press-
ing button A
.


Display in the instrument
panel
The suspension mode selected is
displayed in the instrument panel
screen.

Normal mode
This mode favours soft
damping for maximum com-
fort.
If the speed authorised for a
particular position is exceeded,
the vehicle reverts automatically to the
normal road position.


SPORT mode
This mode favours dynamic
driving.

The warning lamp on button A

comes on in addition to the
message in the instrument
panel screen.

SPORT
mode is retained when you
switch off the engine.

DRIVING

Request not granted

The instrument panel screen tempo-
rarily displays a message indicating
that this position is not authorised.
The vehicle remains in the autho-
rised position and the instrument
panel screen indicates this position
to you.


Automatic variation of ground clear-
ance


- If your speed exceeds 70 mph
(approx. 110 km/h), on a good
road surface, ground clearance
is lowered. The vehicle returns
to its normal position if the road
surface deteriorates or if your
speed is lower than 55 mph (ap-
prox. 90 km/h).

- At low or medium speed, if the
road surface is poor, ground
clearance is increased. The ve-
hicle returns to its normal posi-
tion as soon as conditions allow.

- On switching off the ignition, the
ground clearance is reduced to
the parking position.


For your safety if you are operating
underneath the vehicle, you must
support the vehicle with axle stands.
