Lane departure warning system
System which, using a camera which
recognises solid or broken lines, detects the
involuntary crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings on the ground.
To provide safe driving, the camera analyses
the image then, if the driver's attention drops,
triggers a warning if the vehicle drifts over a
lane marking (speed higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
This system is par ticularly useful on motor waysand main roads.

additional options after the ignition is switchedoff:


- selection of the lighting duration of 15, 30or 60 seconds in the vehicle parameters in
the vehicle configuration menu,

- automatic activation of "guide-me-home"lighting when automatic illumination of

the lighting comes on, this
warning lamp is displayed in the instrumentpanel and/or a message appears in the screen,
accompanied by an audible signal.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
wor
kshop.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may detect sufficient light. In this case, thelighting will not come on automatically. Do not cover the sunshine sensor,coupled with the rain sensor andlocated in the centre of the windscreen behind the rear view mirror; theassociated functions would no longer be controlled.

Parking lamps
Side markers for the vehicle by illumination of
the sidelamps on the traffic side only.)Within one minute of switching off the
ignition, operate the lighting control stalk up
or down depending on the traffic side (for example: when parking on the left; lighting control stalk upwards; the right handsidelamps are on).
This is confirmed by an audible signal and
illumination of the corresponding direction
indicator warning lamp in the instrument panel.
To switch off the parking lamps, return the
lighting control stalk to the middle position or switch on the ignition. Temporarily keeping the dipped beam headlamps
on a
fter the vehicle's ignition has been switched
off makes the exit of the vehicle's occupants easier
when the li

Manual guide-me-home
li
ghting

Switching on
)
Within one minute after switching of the
ignition, "flash" the headlamps using the lighting stalk.) A further "headlamp flash" switches thefunction off.


Switching off

The manual guide-me-home lighting switches
off automatically after a set time (this time is
pro
grammable in the configuration menu).



The system may suffer interference or not work correctly:


- under conditions of poor visibility(for example, snowfall, heavy rain or thick fog, ...),

- if the windscreen is dir ty, misted or obscured (by a sticker, ...) in front of the camera,

- if the vehicle is facing highly reflective signs.

The system is not able to detect:


- road users that do not have their own lighting, such as pedestrians,

- road users whose lighting isobscured, such as vehicles running behind a safety barrier (on amotorway, for example),

- road users at the top or bottom of a steep slope, on twisty roads, oncrossroads.

Direction indicators
)Lower the lighting control stalk fully when moving to the left.)Raise the lighting control stalk fully when moving to the right.
"Motorway" function
Move the stalk briefly upwards or downwards,
without going beyond the point of resistance;
the corresponding direction indicators will flash 3 times.

Hazard warning lamps


Press the button, the direction indicators flash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
Automatic operation of
hazard warnin
g lamps
When braking in an emergency, depending on
the rate of deceleration, as well as when the ABS regulation is invoked or in the event of animpact, the hazard warning lamps come on
automatically.
They switch off automatically the first time you accelerate.)You can also switch them off by pressingthe button.

Intelligent traction control
s
ystem ("Snow motion")
Your vehicle has a system to help driving onsnow: intelligent traction control.This system detects situations of difficult surface adhesion that could make it difficult to move off or make progress on deep fresh snow
or compacted snow.In these situations, the intelligent traction control
limits the amount of wheel slip to provide the best traction and trajectory control
for your vehicle.
In extremely severe conditions (deep snow,mud, ...), when it proves impossible to move off,
it may be useful to temporarily deactivate theESP/ASR systems to allow the wheels to spinfreely and so allow movement of the vehicle.

Operation


Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution
(EBFD)
In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasing the pressure.

When changing wheels (tyres and rims),make sure that these are approved for your vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake pedal. When this warnin
g lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message, it indicates that
there is a fault with the ABS, which
could cause loss of control of the vehicle whenbraking.
When this warnin
g lamp comes on, coupled with the STOPwarning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message, it indicates that
th
ere is a fault with the electronic brake forcedistribution (EBFD), which could cause loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so. In both cases, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on sur faces offering low levels of adhesion.

The driver must ensure that passengers usethe seat belts correctly and that they are allrestrained securely before setting off. Wherever you are seated in the vehicle, always fasten your seat belt, even for short journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as they will not fulfil their role fully.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel permitting automatic adjustment of the length of the strap to your size. The seat belt isstowed automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the seatbelt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be positioned as low as possible on the pelvis.
The upper par t must be positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fitted with an automatic locking device which comes into operation inthe event of a collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release the device by pulling firmly on the strap and releasing it so that it reels in slightly.
Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is
less than 12 years old or shor ter than one and a half metres.Never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person. Never allow a child to travel on your lap.

In order to be effective, a seat belt must:


- be tightened as close to the body as possible,

- be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that it does nottwist,

- be used to restrain only one person,

- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,

- not be converted or modified to avoidaffecting its per formance.
In accordance with current safetyregulations, for all repairs on your vehicle, go to a qualified workshop with the skills and equipment needed, which a CITROËN dealer is able to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regularly by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop, particularly if the straps show signs of damage. Clean the seat belt straps with soapywater or a textile cleaning product, sold by CITROËN dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear benchseat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned and reeled in correctly.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and seriousness of the impact
, thepretensioning device may be deployedbefore and independently of the airbags.Deployment of the pretensioners isaccompanied by a slight discharge of harmless smoke and a noise, due to theactivation of the pyrotechnic car tridge incorporated in the system. In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comeson. Following an impact, have the seat belts system checked, and if necessary replaced,
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
