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.

Page 132 of 404

Rear parking sensors
System consisting of four proximity sensors, located   in   the   rear   bumper.
This
  detects   any   obstacle   (person,   vehicle,  
t

ree,   gate,   etc.)   behind   the   vehicle,   except  
o

bstacles   located   just   below   the   bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks cone   or   any   other   similar   object   may b

e   detected   at   the   beginning   of   the
 m

anoeuvre,   but   may   no   longer   be   detected
 w

hen   the   vehicle   comes   close   to   it.
The parking sensor system cannot in any   circumstances   take   the   place   of  
v

igilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The
 
system   is   activated   as   soon   as   reverse  
g

ear
 
is   engaged,   accompanied   by   an   audible  
s

ignal.   The   proximity   information   is   given   by:
-
 
a

n   audible   signal,   which   becomes   more  
r

apid   as   the   vehicle   approaches   the  
o

bstacle.
-
 
a

 
graphic   (according   to   version)   in   the  
m

ultifunction   screen,   with   blocks   which  
b

ecome   increasingly   closer   to   the   vehicle.
Activation
When the distance between the rear of the vehicle a
nd   the   obstacle   is   less   than   thirty   centimetres,   the a

udible   signal   becomes   continuous   and   the   "Danger"
 s

ymbol   appears   in   the   multifunction   screen.
On
  completion   of   the   manoeuvre,   when   you   exit
 r

everse   gear,   the   system   becomes   inactive.

ProgrammingOperating faults
If there is an operating fault, when r
everse   gear   is   engaged   this w

arning
 
lamp   comes   on   in   the   instrument   panel,
 a

ccompanied   by   an   audible   signal   (short   beep)
 a

nd
 
a
 
message   in   the   multifunction   screen.
You
 
can

or

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.
