foglamps and sidelamps remain on.
►

Rotate the ring backwards to switch the
foglamps off; the sidelamps will then switch off.
Switching on the foglamps is prohibited
in clear weather or in rain, both day and
night. In these situations, the power of their
beams may dazzle other drivers. They must
only be used in fog or falling snow (rules may
vary depending on country).
Do not forget to switch off the foglamps when
they are no longer necessary.

84
Lighting and visibility
Switching off of the lighting when the
ignition is switched off
When the ignition is switched off, all of the
lamps turn off immediately, except for the
dipped beam headlamps if automatic guide-
me-home lighting is activated.
Switching on the lamps after
switching off the ignition
If the driver's door is opened, a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the lamps
are on.
They will go off automatically after a period
of time that depends on the level of charge in
the battery (entering energy economy mode).
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
Never look too closely at the light beam
of LED technology lamps - risk of serious
eye injury!


Travelling abroad
If planning to use your vehicle in a
country that drives on the other side of the
road, the dipped beam headlamps must be
adjusted to avoid dazzling oncoming drivers.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Direction indicators

► Left or right: lower or raise the lighting control
stalk, beyond the point of resistance.
If you keep the direction indicators on for
more than 20 seconds, the volume of the
audible signal will increase if the speed is
above 50 mph (80 km/h).
Three flashes
► Press briefly upwards or downwards, without
going beyond the point of resistance; the
direction indicators will flash 3 times.
Parking lamps
(Depending on version)
Vehicle side marking by lighting the sidelamps
on the traffic side only.
►

Within one minute after switching off the
ignition, operate the lighting control stalk
upwards or downwards, depending on the side
of the traffic (e.g.

when parking on the right, push
the lighting control stalk down to light up on the
left).
This is confirmed by an audible signal and the
lighting of the corresponding direction indicator
lamp on the instrument panel.

Lighting and visibility
4on the part of the driver. They can also come
on if rain is detected, at the same time as the
automatic rain sensitive wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient
level or after the windscreen wipers are switched
off, the lamps are switched off automatically.


► Turn the ring to the "AUTO" position. When
the function is activated, a message is also
displayed.
►
T
urn the ring to another position . An
onscreen message is displayed to confirm that
the function has been deactivated.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction of the rain/
sunshine sensor, the vehicle’s lamps
come on and this warning lamp is displayed on
the instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and/or the display of a message.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Do not cover the rain/sunshine sensor,
located on the dashboard or at the top
centre of the windscreen behind the interior
rear view mirror (depending on equipment);
the associated functions would no longer be
controlled.
In fog or snow, the rain/sunshine sensor
may detect sufficient light. For this
reason, the lighting will not come on
automatically.
The inner surface of the windscreen may become misted up and affect the proper
operation of the rain/sunshine sensor.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Daytime running lamps /
Sidelamps








The front lamps light up automatically when the
engine starts.
They provide the following functions:
–
Daytime running lamps (lighting control stalk in
the "

AUTO" position with adequate light level).
–

Sidelamps (lighting control stalk in the " AUT

O"
position with low light levels or "Sidelamps only”
or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").
The LEDs are brighter when operating as daytime running lamps.
Guide-me-home and
welcome lighting

screen menu.
Automatic lighting systems - General
recommendations
The automatic lighting systems use a detection
camera, located at the top of the windscreen.
Operating limits
The system may be disrupted or not work
correctly:
–

When visibility conditions are poor
(e.g.

snowfall, heavy rain).
–

If the windscreen is dirty
, misted-up or
masked (e.g.
sticker) in front of the camera.
–

If the vehicle is facing highly reflective signs
or safety barrier reflectors.
The system is not able to detect:
–


Road users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians.
–


V

ehicles with hidden lighting (e.g. travelling
behind a safety barrier on the motorway).
–

V

ehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Maintenance
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
obstruct the camera.
Automatic headlamp dipping
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations for
automatic lighting systems.
With the ring of the lighting control stalk
in the
"AUTO" position and the function activated on
the touch screen, this system automatically
switches between dipped and main beam
headlamps, according to lighting and traffic
conditions, using a camera located at the top of
the windscreen.

87
Lighting and visibility
4This system is a driving aid.The driver remains responsible for
the vehicle's lighting, its correct use in the
prevailing light, visibility and traffic conditions,
and for compliance with driving and vehicle
regulations.
The system becomes operational when the vehicle exceeds 16 mph (25 km/h).
When the speed falls below 9 mph (15 km/h),
the function is no longer operational.
Activation/Deactivation
The settings are changed via the Driving/Vehicle touch screen
menu.
When deactivated, the lighting system changes
to "automatic illumination of headlamps" mode.
The state of the system is stored when the
ignition is switched off.
Operation
If the ambient light level is very low and traffic
conditions permit:
– The main beam headla mps
come on automatically. These
indicator lamps light up on the instrument panel.
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or the
traffic conditions do not allow the main beam
headlamps to be lit:
– The dipped beam head lamps
remain lit. These indicator lamps
light up on the instrument panel.
The function is deactivated if the foglamps
are switched on or if the system detects poor
visibility conditions (e.g.
fog, heavy rain,
snowfall).
When the foglamps are switched off or when the
visibility conditions become favourable again, the
function is automatically reactivated.
This indicator lamp goes out when the function is deactivated.
Pause
If the situation requires a change of headlamp
beam, the driver can take over at any time.
► A "headlamp flash" pauses the
function and the lighting system switches
to "automatic illumination of lamps" mode:
–

If the "AUT
O" and "Dipped beam" indicator
lamps were on, the system changes to main
beam.
–

If the "AUT
O" and "Main beam"
indicator
lamps were on, the system changes to
dipped beam.
►

T

o reactivate the function, once again switch
the headlamps manually between dipped and
main beam.
The system may be disrupted or not work correctly:
–

When visibility conditions are poor
(snowfall, heavy rain, etc.).
– If the windscreen in front of the camera is
dirty , misted or obscured (for example, by a
sticker).
–

If the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
–


Road users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians.
–


V
ehicles whose lighting is obscured (for
example, vehicles driving behind a safety
barrier on a motorway).
–

V
ehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
obstruct the detection camera.

Wiper control stalk
Before operating the wipers in wintry
conditions, clear any snow, ice or frost
from the windscreen and around the wiper
arms and blades.
Do not operate the wipers on a dry
windscreen. In extremely hot or cold
weather, check that the wiper blades are not
stuck to the windscreen before operating the
wipers.
After using an automatic car wash, you may temporarily notice abnormal noises
and poorer wiping performance.
You do not
need to replace the wiper blades.
Without AUTO wiping



With AUTO wiping

Windscreen wipers
► To select the wiping speed: raise or lower the
stalk to the desired position.
Fast wiping (heavy rain)
Normal wiping (moderate rain)
Intermittent wiping (proportional to the
vehicle’s speed)
Switching off
Single wipe (press down and release).
or
Automatic wiping
Refer to the corresponding section.
Windscreen wash
► Pull the wiper control stalk towards you and
hold.
A
final wiping cycle is performed when
screenwashing ends.
The windscreen wash jets are incorporated into the tip of each wiper
arm.
Screenwash fluid is sprayed along the length
of the wiper blade. This improves visibility and
reduces screenwash fluid consumption.
With automatic air conditioning, any
action on the screenwash control results
in temporary closure of the air intake to
protect the passenger compartment from any
odour.

Driving
Noise (Electric)
On the outside
Due to the vehicle’s quiet operation when
driving, the driver must pay particular attention.
When manoeuvring, the driver must always
check the vehicle's immediate surroundings.
At speeds of up to 19 mph (30 km/h), the
pedestrian horn warns other road users of the
vehicle’s presence.
Cooling the traction battery
The cooling fan comes on during
charging to cool the on-board charger and the
traction battery.
On the inside
During use, you may hear certain perfectly
normal noises specific to electric vehicles, such
as:
–

T
raction battery relay when starting.
–

V
acuum pump when braking.
–

V
ehicle tyres or aerodynamics when driving.
–

Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.
Towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
particular care must be taken.
Do not exceed the maximum towable
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower
air density at high altitudes decreases engine
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight (at the point where it
joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine CITROËN towing device is
used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the audible
signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant
temperature to increase. The maximum towable
load depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not
increase with engine speed.
►

Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to
limit the amount of heating produced.
►


Pay constant attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as
possible.
Brakes
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit
the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances
are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more
susceptible to wind when towing.

Energy economy mode
This system manages the duration of use of
certain functions, in order to conserve a sufficient
level of charge in the battery with the ignition off.
After switching off the engine and for a maximum
cumulative period of around 30 minutes, you can
continue to use functions such as the audio and
telematics system, dipped beam headlamps or
courtesy lamps.
Selecting the mode
A confirmation message is displayed when
energy economy mode is entered, and the active
functions are placed on standby.
If a telephone call is in progress at the
time, it will be maintained for around 10
