HILL START ASSISTANCE
Operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal
pressed, from the time you release the
b r a k e p e d a l y o u h a v e a p p r o x i m a t e l y
2 seconds before the vehicle starts
to roll back and without using the
handbrake within which to move off.
During the moving off phase, the
function is deactivated automatically,
gradually releasing the braking
pressure. During this phase, the typical
noise of mechanical disengaging of
the brakes can be heard, indicating the
imminent movement of the vehicle. Anomaly
The hill start assistance is deactivated
in the following situations:
- when the clutch pedal is released,
- when the handbrake is applied,
- when the engine is switched off,
- when the engine stalls.
If a malfunction of the system
occurs, this warning light
comes on accompanied
by an audible signal and
c o n fi r m e d b y a m e s s a g e o n
the display. Contact a CITROËN dealer
to have the system checked.
This function, linked with the ESP,
makes hill starts easier and is activated
in the following conditions:
- the vehicle must be stationary,
engine running, foot on the brake,
- the gradient of the road must be steeper than 5 %,
- u p h i l l , t h e g e a r b o x m u s t b e i n neutral or in a gear other than
reverse,
- downhill, reverse gear must be engaged.
The HHC (Hill Holder Control) or Hill
Start Assistance function is a driving
comfort feature. It is not an automatic
vehicle parking function or an
automatic handbrake.

Parking assistance
SAFETY
4
The audible and/or visual rear parking
assistance consists of four proximity
sensors, installed in the rear bumper.
The sensors detect any obstacle which
e n t e r s t h e fi e l d : p e r s o n , v e h i c l e , t r e e ,
fence, behind the vehicle during the
manoeuvre.
Certain objects detected at the
beginning of the manoeuvre will no
longer be detected at the end of the
manoeuvre due to the blind spots
between and below the sensors.

activation of the system by engaging
reverse gear.
The proximity information is indicated
by an audible signal which becomes
more rapid as the vehicle approaches
the obstacle. When the distance
between the rear of the vehicle and
the obstacle is less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal
becomes continuous.

Activation/Deactivation Operating fault
In the event of an operating fault, when
reverse gear is engaged the diode on
the button comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message
on the display. Consult a CITROËN
dealer.
Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered with mud,
ice or snow.
The system will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed
o r i f a b i c y c l e c a r r i e r i s fi t t e d ( v e h i c l e
fi t t e d w i t h a t o w b a r o r b i c y c l e c a r r i e r
recommended by CITROËN ).
The parking assistance cannot, in
any circumstances, take the place of
the vigilance and responsibility of the
driver.
You can activate or deactivate
the system by pressing this
button.
The activation or deactivation
of the system is stored when
the vehicle stops.
You are advised to deactivate
t h e s y s t e m i f y o u r v e h i c l e i s fi t t e d
with a rear ladder or if you are
transporting a load which exceeds the
length of the vehicle.

Towing a trailer
Good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine automatically limits its power. In
this case, the automatic cutting off of
the air conditioning allows the engine
power to be recovered.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures
of the towing vehicle (see the
" I d e n t i fi c a t i o n f e a t u r e s " s e c t i o n o f
chapter 8) and of the trailer, observing
the recommended pressure. See the "Levels" section of
chapter 6. If the coolant temperature
warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change
down early and brake gradually. Towbar
We recommend the use of original
CITROËN towbars and their
harnesses, which have been tested
and approved from the design stage of
your vehicle, and that you entrust the
