The maintenance indicator informs you when the next serviceis due,
in conformity with the servicing programme detailed in the v ehicle's
Maintenance Guide. This information is determined as a func tion of
two parameters: the mileage travelled and the time elapsed s ince the
previous service.
Operation
On switching on the ignition, the maintenance indicator spa nner appears in
the display for several seconds; the mileage recorder displ ay indicates how
many miles remain to be travelled before the next service is d ue.
The next service is not yet due.
For example:you have the following distance left to travel
before the next service: 1 800 km.
For five seconds on switching on the ignition, the display
shows
Five seconds after switching on the ignition, the total mile age
recorder reverts to normal operation and the total or trip
mileages appear on the display.
The pre- set service distance has been exceeded.
Each time you switch on the ignition, the maintenance symbol and mileage
covered beyond the recommended service interval flash for a short time.
For example: the pre- set service distance has been ex-
ceeded by 300 miles. Your vehicle must be serviced as
soon as possible.
For five seconds on switching on the ignition, the display
shows
A few seconds after you have switched on the ignition, the
total mileage recorder returns to its normal operation and
the maintenance symbol remains illuminated . The total
or trip mileages appear on the display. Resetting the maintenance in-
dicator to zero
Your CITROËN dealer performs
this operation after each serv-
ice. However, if you carry out
the servicing yourself, the pro-
cedure for resetting to zero is
as follows:
- Switch off the ignition.
- Press and hold down button C
.
- Switch on the ignition.
- The distance remaining until the next service flashes.
- Keep button Cpressed until the
display shows “=0”and the main-
tenance key disappears.
The time limit between services
has been reached.
If the maximum recommended pe-
riod of time between two services is
reached before the recommended
distance travelled is reached, the
maintenance symbol will flash, and
the distance travelled since the rec-
ommended service date will ap-
pear in the display for five seconds.

Handbrake
The parking brake is applied, with the vehicle stationary, by pulling on the le-
ver with a force that is proportionate to the steepness of the slope.
In all circumstances, as a precautionary measure, engage fi rst gear. For vehi-
cles equipped with an automatic gearbox, ensure that the par king position
( P ) is selected.
On steep slopes, turn the steering towards the kerb.
To release the brake, pull the lever lightly up, press the but ton on the end of
the lever and return the lever to the fully down position.
The warning lamp will come on if the handbrake is on or not full y released.
An alert message appears on the instrument panel when the veh icle is mov-
ing.
ABS - Anti- lock Braking System
This system improves vehicle safety by preventing the wheel s from locking under emergency braking or when
braking on surfaces offering poor adhesion. It thus allows c ontrol of the steering to be retained.
The operational capacity of the various electrical compone nts of the ABS is continuously monitored, both be-
fore and during your journey. On switching on the ignition, t he ABS warning lamp will light up and then should go out af-
ter a few seconds.
If the warning lamp stays on, this means that the ABS has been d isconnected because a fault was detected. If the warn-
ing lamp lights up when you are driving, this means that the AB S system is not active. In either case, the normal braking
system remains effective, as on a vehicle without ABS. Never theless, to restore the additional safety afforded by cor-
rect functioning of ABS, it is recommended that the vehicle b e taken to a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
On slippery roads (loose stones, snow, ice, etc.), it remain s essential to drive with caution.
Emergency braking assistance system
This system enables you to achieve optimum braking pressure more quickly in an emergency situation and thusto
reduce the stopping distance. It deploys as a function of your speed of action on the brake pe dal, reducing its re-
sistance. To maintain the effect of the emergency braking as sistance, just keep your foot on the brake pedal.

Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) and Traction Control(ASR)
These systems are closely connected to the ABS and additiona l to it. In the
event of a loss of control of the vehicle by the driver, the ESP systemacts au-
tomatically on one or more brakes and also on the engine to bri ng the vehicle
back on trajectory. The ASR systemoptimises traction and prevents wheel
spin by acting on the brakes of the driving wheels. It also imp roves steering
stability during acceleration.
Operation
If either the ESP or traction control (ASR) is active, the ESPwarning lamp flash-
es.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (vehicle stuck in snow, soft grou nd, etc.) it may prove useful to deactivate the ESP/ASR sys-
tem to allow the wheels to spin and thus regain traction.
- Press control A.
- The ESPwarning lamp lights up, accompanied by the message “ESP/ASR DEACTIVATED” on the multifunction
screen, the ESP/ASR systems are no longer active.
The ESP/ASR systems will deploy again:
- Automatically if the ignition has been switched off.
- Automatically over a speed of approx. 50 km/h (approx. 30 mph).
- With action on your part by a new press on control A.
Operational anomaly
If there is system malfunction, the ESPwarning lamp lights up accompanied by an audible signal and t he message
“ESP/ASR NOT IN USE” on the multifunction screen. Contact a C ITROËN dealer to have the system checked.
SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
The ESP system offers increased driving safety but is not in p lace to encourage the driver to take additional risks or to
drive at excessive speeds.
The functioning of this system is subject to compliance with the manufacturer’s recommendations on wheels (tyres and
rims), brake parts and electronic components, as well as wit h CITROËN’s assembly and repair procedures.
After any collision, have this system checked by a CITROËN de aler.
