ECU CITROEN C-ELYSÉE 2018 Handbook (in English)

95
On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is secured
c o r r e c t l y,
-

d
o not fit one mat on top of another.Cruise control
System which automatically
maintains the speed of the vehicle
at the value programmed by the
driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25
mph
(40


km/h).
As well as the engagement of:
-

F

ourth gear on a manual gearbox.
-

S

econd gear on an automatic gearbox, in
sequential mode.
-

Position D with an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off manually
or by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on
triggering of the trajectory control systems for
safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed setting.
Cruise control cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need to respect speed limits, nor can it replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.

Operating fault
In the event of a cruise control fault, the speed
is cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.When the cruise control is switched on,
be careful if you maintain the pressure on
one of the programmed speed changing
buttons: this may result in a very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-

E
nsure that mats are secured correctly.
-

D
o not fit one mat on top of another.
Rear parking sensors
This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
entering the field of detection of sensors
located in the bumper.
Due to blind spots, obstacles of certain types
(posts, roadworks cones, etc.) which were
detected initially won't be any longer by the end
of the operation.
This system cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
gear. It is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.

The vehicle's electrical system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair.
Composition of the kit
1.12 V compressor, with built-in pressure
gauge.
2. Bottle of sealant, with built-in hose.
3. Speed limit sticker.
The speed limit sticker must be secured
to the interior of the vehicle in the driver's
field of vision, to remind you that a wheel
is in temporary use. Do not exceed a speed of 50
mph
(80 km/h) when driving with a tyre repaired
using this type of kit.
Repair procedure
F Switch off the ignition.
F S ecure the speed limit sticker inside the
vehicle.
F

U

compressor.
Avoid removing any foreign bodies which
have penetrated into the tyre.
F

C
onnect the pipe from the compressor to
the bottle of sealant. F

R

repaired, and place it in a clean area.
F

List of operations
Changing a bulb
The headlamps have polycarbonate
lenses with a protective coating:
F
d
o not clean them using a dr y or
abrasive cloth, nor with a detergent
or solvent product,
F

u
se a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product,
F

w
hen using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep the
lance directed towards the lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to
damage their protective coating and
seals.
A bulb must only be changed with the
ignition off and after the headlamp has
been switched off for several minutes –
Risk of serious burns!
F

D
o not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers, use a lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
Always replace a faulty bulb with a new
bulb of the same type and specification.
Fastening the spare wheel
If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels,
when tightening the bolts on fitting, it is
normal to notice that the washers do not
come into contact with the spare wheel.
The wheel is secured by the conical
contact of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) when
using a "space-saver" type spare wheel.
Have the tightening of the bolts and the
pressure of the spare wheel checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired and
refit it on the vehicle as soon as possible.

Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox,
do not try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.
Access to the battery Starting using another
battery
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a backup battery
(external or from another vehicle) and jump
leads or a battery booster.
Never try to start the engine by connecting
a battery charger.
Never use a 24V or higher battery booster.
Check beforehand that the backup
battery has a nominal voltage of 12V and
a capacity at least equal to that of the
discharged battery.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off all the electrical consumers
on both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, etc.).
Make sure that the jump leads are not
close to moving parts of the engine (fan,
belts, etc.).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal while
the engine is running. F

S
tart the engine of the vehicle with the
good battery and leave it running for a few
minutes.
F

O
perate the starter on the broken down
vehicle and let the engine run.
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition and wait a few moments
before trying again.
The battery is located under the bonnet.
To gain access to it:
F

O

pen the bonnet using the interior release
lever, then the exterior safety catch.
F

S

ecure the bonnet stay.
F

R

emove the plastic cover on the (+)
terminal. The battery (-) terminal is not accessible. A
remote earth point is located on the engine.

This is a normal effect of the way in
which radio waves are transmitted and
does not indicate any failure of the audio
equipment.
