In wintry conditions, remove snow, ice 
or frost present on the windscreen, 
around the wiper arms and blades and 
the windscreen seal, before operating 
the wipers.
Do not operate the wipers on a dry 
windscreen. Under extremely hot or 
cold conditions, ensure that the wiper 
blades are not stuck to the windscreen 
before operating the wipers. The front wiper system includes a 
safety device which can temporarily 
inhibit operation if it detects obstacles 
such as ice or snow.

Do not cover the rain sensor, linked with 
the sunshine sensor and located in the 
centre of the windscreen behind the rear 
view mirror.
Switch off the automatic rain sensitive 
wipers when using an automatic car wash.
In winter, it is advisable to wait until the 
windscreen is completely clear of ice 
before activating the automatic rain 
sensitive wipers.
Operating fault
If a fault occurs with the automatic rain 
sensitive wipers, the wipers will operate in 
intermittent mode.
Have it checked by CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
The windscreen wipers operate automatically, without any action on the part of the driver, if rain is 
detected (sensor behind the rear view mirror), adapting their speed to the intensity of the rainfall.
Switching on
Switching off
The automatic rain sensitive windscreen 
wipers must be reactivated by pushing 
the control stalk downwards, if the 
ignition has been off for more than 
one
  minute.
Briefly push the control stalk 
downwards.
A wiping cycle confirms that the 
instruction has been accepted.
This warning lamp comes on in the 
instrument panel and a message is 
displayed. Briefly push the control stalk 
downwards again, or place 
the control stalk in another 
position
  (Int,   1   or 2).

Opening the roof blind
F Rotate the control A to position 0 to close 
the roof blind. The blind has an anti-pinch function.
At the end of its travel, when the blind 
encounters an obstacle on closing, it stops and 
moves back slightly.
Following a fault or after a battery 
disconnection during the movement of the blind 
or after it has stopped, you must re-initialise the 
anti-pinch function:
F
 
p
 lace the blind in the closed position,
F

Intelligent traction control 
system ("Snow motion")
When this warning lamp comes on, 
coupled with the STOP and ABS warning 
lamps, accompanied by an audible signal 
and a message, it indicates that there 
is a fault with the electronic brake force 
distribution (EBFD).
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force 
distribution (EBFD)
The fixed illumination of this warning 
lamp indicates that there is a fault 
with the ABS. Depending on version, your vehicle has a 
system to help driving on snow: intelligent 
traction control
.
This system detects situations of difficult 
sur face grip 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 spin to 
provide the best traction and trajectory control 
for your vehicle.
The use of snow tyres is strongly 
recommended on sur faces offering low levels 
of adhesion.
When changing wheels (tyres and 
rims), ensure that these are approved 
for your vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may make 
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake 
pedal.
In emergency braking, press ver y 
firmly and maintain this pressure.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, have the system checked by a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as 
soon as possible. The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive 
carefully at moderate speed.

The Stop & Start system may not be 
operational during the trip following the 
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be 
available again after a continuous 
period of immobilisation of the vehicle, 
a period which depends on the ambient 
temperature and the state of charge of 
the battery (up to about 8 hours).
Do not force the lever as locking will 
not be possible if the clamp is not 
positioned correctly; start the procedure 
again.
