Active City Brake
Active City Brake is a driving assistance system that aims to avoid a frontal collision
o
r reduce the speed of an impact if the driver
d
oes not react sufficiently (inadequate brake
a
pplication). This
system is designed to improve
d
riving safety.
It
remains the driver's responsibility to
c
ontinuously monitor the state of the
t
raffic and to assess the distances and
r
elative speeds of other vehicles.
Active
City Brake can in no
c
ircumstances replace the need for
v
igilance 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 Brake only 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.

Operation
When your vehicle is too close to or
approaches the vehicle ahead too quickly the
s
ystem automatically applies the brakes to
a
void a collision.
The
collision can be avoided automatically if the
d
ifference in speed between your vehicle and the
v
ehicle ahead does not exceed 9 mph (15 km/h).
Above
this threshold, the system will do what
i
s possible to avoid or reduce the accident by
l
owering the speed of impact.
The
automatic braking may bring the vehicle to
a
complete stop if the situation requires it.
In
this case, the vehicle is held stationary
t
emporarily (for about 1.5 seconds) to allow
t
he driver to take back control by pressing the
b
rake
ped
al.
You
are then alerted by the display of a
m
essage.
The
brake lamps on your vehicle come on to
w
arn other road users.
After
an impact, the system is
a
utomatically put out of service: it no
lon
ger
ope
rates.
You
must go to a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified workshop to have the system
m
ade operational again.
During
automatic braking, the driver
c
an always obtain a higher rate of
d
eceleration than that controlled by the
s
ystem, by pressing firmly on the brake
ped
al.
The
triggering of the system may cause
t
he engine to stall, unless the driver
d
epresses the clutch pedal quickly
e
nough during automatic braking.
deactivation
The system is deactivated in the vehicle configuration menu, accessible with the ignition on.
Its
state is memorised when the ignition is
s
witched off.
When the system is deactivated, a m essage is displayed every time the
i
gnition is switched on, to warn you.

Operating faults
In the event of an impact to the windscreen at the sensor, deactivate
t
he system and contact a CITROËN
d
ealer or a qualified workshop to have
y
our windscreen replaced.
Never
try to remove, adjust or test the
sen
sor.
Only
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop is able to work on the system.
When
towing a trailer or when the
v
ehicle is being towed, the system must
b
e deactivated.
Do
not
stick
or
other wise
fix
any
object o
n
the
windscreen
in
front
of
the
sensor.
Sensor fault
The operation of the laser sensor may suffer i
nter ference from accumulations of dirt or
m
isting of the windscreen. In this case you are
w
arned by the display of a message.
Use
the windscreen demisting and regularly
c
lean the area of the windscreen in front of the
sen
sor.
System fault
In the event of a malfunction of the system, you are warned by an audible signal and the display
o
f the message Automatic braking system
fault .
Have
the system checked by a CITROËN
d
ealer or a qualified workshop.

Advice
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
- b e tightened as close to the body as
p
ossible,
-
b
e pulled in front of you with a smooth
m
ovement, checking that it does not
t
wist,
-
b
e used to restrain only one person,
-
n
ot bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
-
n
ot be converted or modified to avoid
a
ffecting
it
s
p
erformance.
In
a
ccordance
w
ith
c
urrent
s
afety
r
egulations,
f
or all repairs on your vehicle's seat belts, go
t
o a qualified workshop with the skills and
e
quipment needed, which a CITROËN dealer
i
s able to provide.
Have
your seat belts checked regularly by
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop,
p
articularly if the straps show signs of
d
amage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or
a
textile cleaning product, sold by CITROËN
d
ealers.
After
folding or moving a seat or rear bench
s
eat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned
a
nd reeled in correctly.Recommendations for
children
Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is less than 12 years old or shorter than one
a
nd a half metres.
Never
use the same seat belt to secure
m
ore than one person.
Never
allow a child to travel on your lap.
For
more information on child seats, refer to
t
he corresponding section.
In the event of an impact
depending on the nature and
seriousness of the impact , the
pretensioning
device may be deployed
b
efore and independently of the airbags.
D
eployment of the pretensioners is
a
ccompanied by a slight discharge of
h
armless smoke and a noise, due to the
a
ctivation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
i
ncorporated in the system.
In
all cases, the airbag warning lamp
c
omes on.
Following
an impact, have the seat belts
s
ystem
c
hecked,
a
nd
i
f
n
ecessary
r
eplaced,

In the event of a fault with the SCR emissions control system
If it is a temporary fault, the alert disappears during the next journey,
a
fter self-diagnosis of the SCR system.
A
system that prevents engine starting is activated automatically from 650 miles (1 100 km) after confirmation of a fault with the SCR emissions
c
ontrol system. Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
In the event of the detection of a fault
du
ring an authorised driving phase (between
650 miles and 0 miles) (1 100 km and 0 km)
The
UREA, SERVICE and diagnostic warning
l
amps
comes on, accompanied by an audible
s
ignal
and the display of the message
"
Emissions
f
ault".
The
alert is triggered when driving when the
f
ault
is detected for the first time, then when
s
witching on the ignition for subsequent
j
ourneys, while the fault persists. If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed (after
3
0 miles (50 km) covered with the permanent
d
isplay of the message signalling a fault), the
S
ERVICE and engine diagnostic warning lamps
c
ome on and the UREA warning lamp flashes,
a
ccompanied by an audible signal and the
d
isplay of a message (e.g.: "Emissions fault:
S
tarting prevented in 150 miles") indicating the
r
emaining range express in miles or kilometres.
While driving, the message is displayed every
3
0 seconds while the fault with the SCR system
p
ersists.
The alert is repeated when switching on the ig
nition.
You
should go to a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified workshop as soon as possible.
Other wise, you will not be able to restart your
engine. You
have exceeded the authorised
d
riving limit: the starting prevention
s
ystem inhibits engine starting.
Every
time the ignition is switched on, the SERVICE a
nd engine diagnostic warning lamps come on and t
he UREA warning lamp flashes, accompanied by
a
n audible signal and the display of the message
"
Emissions fault: Starting prevented".
Starting prevented
To
be able to start the engine, you must call on
