Comfort
Automatic day/night model
By means of a sensor, which measures the
light from the rear of the vehicle, this system
automatically and progressively changes
between the day and night uses.
Adjustable mirror providing a central rearwardview.
Equipped with an anti-dazzle system, whichdarkens the mirror glass: this reduces
the nuisance to the driver caused by the headlamps from following vehicles, low sun...





Rear view mirror
In order to ensure optimum visibility during your manoeuvres, the mirror lightens automatically when reverse gear is engaged.










Steering wheel adjustment
)When stationary, pull the control lever to yrelease the adjustment mechanism.)
Adjust the height and reach to suit your driving position.)
Push the control lever to lock theadjustment mechanism.

As a safety precaution, these operations should only be carried out while the vehicle is stationary.

As a safety measure, the mirrors shouldbe adjusted to reduce the "blind spot".
Seeing clearly
For better rear vision, align the bottom of the rear view mirror with the bottom of the rear screen.

113Comfort
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below: )
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as wellas the air extractor located in the boot.
)
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation of the digital air conditioning system. )
Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a monthto keep it in perfect working order. )
Ensure that the passenger compar tment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section). We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by theoccupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).)
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to haveit checked regularly as recommended in the ser vicing booklet. )
If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
You can switch off the air conditioning (AC button) and stay in Automatic mode in order to limit fuel consumption. If misting appears while in this mode, you can switch the air conditioning back on temporarily to improve the situation.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off theair conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.












Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning


If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very high, firstventilate the passenger compar tment for a few moments. Put the air flow control at a setting high enough to quickly change the air in the passenger compartment. The air conditioning system does notcontain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.


The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a dischargeof water under the vehicle which is
perfectly normal.

5. Air conditioning On / Off
)Press this button to switch off
the air conditioning.
Switchin
g the system off could result in
discomfort (humidity, condensation).)Press this button again to return to automatic operation of the air conditioning.The indicator lamp in the "A/C"
button comes on.
To obtain cool air more quickly, you can use
recirculation of the interior air for a few moments.
Then revert to the intake of exterior air.


6. Air distribution adjustment
)Press one or more buttons todirect the air flow towards:


- t
he windscreen and side windows,

- the outer and centre air vents,

- th
e footwells.
You can combine the three orientations to obtain the desired air distribution.


7. Air fl ow adjustment
)Turn this control to the left todecrease the air flow or to theright to increase the air flow.
The air flow indicator lamps, between the two
fans, come on pro
gressively in relation to the
value requested.


8. Air intake / Air recirculation
Air recirculation enables the passenger compartment to be isolated from exterior odours
and smoke when external pollution is detected(if your vehicle is fitted with a pollution sensor).
It is activated automatically on operation of the screenwash.
It is inactive when the ambient temperature is
below 5 °C to avoid the risk of mistin
g in the
vehicle.


- The indicator lamp with "A" on
in
dicates that recirculation is controlled automatically.

- The indicator lamp without "A"on indicates that recirculation is forced manually.

- Both indicator lamps off
indicates that recirculation is controlled automatically without
taking account of the detection
of pollution.

Without pollution sensor
If
your vehicle is not fitted with a
pollution sensor, press this button
to force recirculation manuall
y.
In ZEV mode, the hybrid system maytemporarily inhibit operation of the air conditioning.

143Driving
This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) which comes within the field of detection of sensorslocated in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworkscone, etc.) detected initially will no longer bedetected at the end of the manoeuvre due to
the presence of blind spots.






Parking sensors


This function cannot, in any circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of the driver.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reversegear. This is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you exit reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by anintermittent audible signal, the frequency of whichincreases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left) indicates the side on which the obstacle islocated.
When the distance between the vehicle andthe obstacle becomes less than approximately
t
hirty centimetres, the audible signal becomescontinuous.



Visual assistance

This supplements the audible signal bydisplaying bars in the multifunction screen
w
hich move progressively nearer to the vehicle.When the obstacle is near, the "Danger" symbol is also displayed in the screen.

In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the sensors are not covered with mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is
engaged, an audible signal (long beep)indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
When the vehicle is moving at a speed below 6 mph (10 km/h), cer tain sound sources (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger the audiblesignals of the parking sensor system.
In th
e event of a malfunctionof the system, when reverse gear is engaged this warning
lamp is displayed in the instrument paneland/or a message appears in the screen,
accompanied by an audible signal (short beep).
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Operating fault
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the front parking sensors are triggered when an obstacle
is detected in front and the speed of the vehicle
is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in for ward
gear, if no fur ther obstacles are
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
