Multifunction screens

Driving
This section describes the use of the parking brake, the manual, electronic   or   automatic   gearbox,   the   gear   efficiency   indicator   and   Stop   & S

tart
 
to   help   reduce   fuel   consumption,   hill   start   assist,   the   speed   limiter  
t

o   avoid   exceeding   a   programmed   speed,   cruise   control   to   maintain   a  
p

rogrammed   speed,   the   rear   parking   sensors   to   detect   obstacles.

161
Active City Brake
Active City Brakeis a driving assistance system that   aims   to   avoid   a   frontal   collision   or   reduce  
t

he   speed   of   an   impact   if   the   driver   does  
n

ot   take   sufficient   action   (inadequate   brake  
a

pplication).
This system is designed to improve driving safety.
I t   remains   the   driver's   responsibility   to c

ontinuously   monitor   the   state   of   the   traffic   and
 t

o   assess   the   distances   and   relative   speeds   of
 o

ther
 v
ehicle.
Active
  City   Brakecan   in   no   circumstances   replace
 t

he   need   for   vigilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
never   look   at   the   laser   sensor   through  an o
ptical in strument ( magnifying g lass, m

icroscope...)   at   a   distance   of   less   than  
1

0   centimetres:   risk   of   eye   injury.Automatic
  braking   occurs   later   than   if  
d

one   by   the   driver,   so   as   to   intervene  
o

nly   when   there   is   a   high   risk   of  
c

ollision.
Principle
Using a laser sensor located at the top of the windscreen,   this   system   detects   a   vehicle  
r

unning   in   the   same   direction   or   stationary  
a

head   of   your   vehicle.
When
  necessary,   the   vehicle's   braking   system  
i

s   operated   automatically   to   avoid   a   collision  
w

ith   the   vehicle   ahead.
Conditions for activation
Active City Brakeonly operates if the following conditions   are   met:
●
 
i
gnition   on,
●
 
t
he   vehicle   is   in   a   for ward   gear,
●
 
s
peed   is   between   about   3   and   18   mph  
(

5 and   30   km/h),
●
 
t
he   braking   assistance   systems   (ABS,  
E

BFD,   emergency   braking   assistance)   are  
n

ot faulty,
●
 
t
he   trajectory   control   systems   (ASR,   DSC)  
a

re   not   deactivated   or   faulty,
●
 
t
he   vehicle   is   not   in   a   tight   corner,
●
 
t
he   system   has   not   been   triggered   during  
t

he   previous   10   seconds.

RACING towbar
Your vehicle cannot be fitted with a towbar.   The   space   occupied   by   the  
s

port   diffuser   prevents   this.
Ty r e s
F Check  the   tyre   pressures   of   the   towing  v
ehicle   and   of   the   trailer,   observing   the  
re

commended
 p
ressures.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature   of   the   coolant.
As
  the   fan   is   electrically   controlled,   its   cooling  
c

apacity   is   not   dependent   on   the   engine   speed.
F
 
T
o   lower   the   engine   speed,   reduce   your  
s

peed.
The
  maximum   towed   load   on   a   long   incline  
d

epends   on   the   gradient   and   the   ambient  
t

emperature.
In
  all   cases,   keep   a   check   on   the   coolant  
t

emperature.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o   avoid   overheating   of   the   brakes   on   a   long  
m

ountain   type   of   descent,   the   use   of   engine  
b

raking   is   recommended.
Lighting
F Check   the   electrical   lighting   and   signalling  o
n   the   trailer.
The
  rear   parking   sensors   will   be  
d

eactivated   automatically   if   a   genuine  
C

ITROËN   towbar   is   used.
