To deactivate the speed limiter
Press button
3 located on the end of control A.
A mat not approved by CITROËN risks sliding under the a ccelerator pedal, thus preventing you
from pressing past the tight spot.
It will then be impossible to exit from your speed limita tion, unless by resorting to the control
under the steering wheel.
The driver must still remain attentive and in complete co ntrol of the vehicle.
This action causes the information

You can exceed the memorised maximum speed at any time by pressing th e accelerator pedal hard down past the
tight spot.
During the time the limit speed is being exceeded, the dis played speed lashes.
Simply release the accelerator pedal to return below the limit speed and make the function active again.
Note: if during use of the speed limiter the system is not able to retain the memorised speed (e.g. on a steep
descent), then the speed lashes. If necessary, adjust your driving speed.
The function will re-engage when your speed is again below the desired limit speed.
To cancel the function
- By moving the control from position “LIMIT” to position 0.
- By stopping the engine.
The speed previously chosen is memorised.
In the event of a malfunction , a message is displayed, accompanied by a sound signal and lig hting of the

Proximity sensors are located in
the
front and/or rear bumpers of
your vehicle.
When moving forwards or
reversing, at a speed lower than
approx.  mph, they inform you of
the presence of obstacles located
in their detection zone by :
- a sound signal emitted by the front and/or rear speakers,
- the display of the vehicle outline with bars corresponding to the
zones where an obstacle is
detected.
When the vehicle approaches
an obstacle, the sound signal
indicates the position of the
obstacle according to whether
the sound is emitted from the
front / rear left hand / right hand
speaker. - When the vehicle approaches
the obstacle, the sound signal
becomes more and more rapid
and the bars are seen to move
ever nearer to the vehicle.
- When the obstacle is less than 25 cms from the rear of the ve-
hicle, the sound signal becomes
continuous and a warning mes -
sage appears on the display.

appears on the display. Obstacles located to the rear or in f ront of the vehicle will be detected.
- when moving forward at a speed lower than approx. 6 mph, either in neutral or in gear, the vehicle outline
appears on the display as soon as an obstacle is detected in f ront of the vehicle. Obstacles located in front of the
vehicle will be detected.
Notes :
- The proximity sensors cannot detect obstacles located just below or above the bumpers.
- A thin object such as a spike, a bollard or other similar obje ct, will only be detected at the start of the manoeuvre
but not when the vehicle is up close to it.
- In bad weather and in winter, ensure that the sensors are not covered by dirt, ice or snow.
