Front and rear foglamps
Foglamps selection ring.
The foglamps operate with the sidelamps and
dipped and main beam headlamps.Front and rear foglamps.
In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, the front foglamps and the
rear foglamp is prohibited. In these
situations, the power of its beam may
dazzle other drivers.
Do not forget to switch off the front
foglamps and the rear foglamp when
they are no longer necessary.

Daytime running lamps
Special daytime lighting so that the vehicle can
be seen more easily.
The daytime running lamps come on
automatically when starting the motor, if no
other lighting is on.
They cannot be deactivated.Automatic illumination of headlamps
With the main lighting control ring in the AUTO
position, the sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps
come on automatically, without any action by the
driver, when a low level of ambient light is detected.
When the light returns to a sufficient level or the
wipers are switched off, the lighting is switched off
automatically.
The sensor is located at the base of the windscreen.
Automatic illumination of
headlamps
Automatic lighting off
When the lighting stalk is in the
"AUTO" position, if the ignition switch is in
the "LOCK" or "ACC" position or if the key
has been removed, the lighting switches off
automatically when the driver's door is
opened . The initial setting is position "0"
.

Under-inflation detection
System which continuously and automatically
checks the pressures of the four tyres after
switching on the ignition.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each tyre.
The system triggers an alert if a drop in
pressure is detected in one or more tyres,
compared to the reference pressure registered
in the system. This reference pressure must be
reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are
adjusted or a wheel changed.
The system operates on condition that sensor
identifiers have first been memorised in the
system by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
You can memorise two sets of tyres
(for example: wheels with "standard" tyres and
wheels with "winter" tyres).The tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver. This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures regularly and
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption. The tyre pressures for your vehicle can
be found on the tyre pressure label (see
the "Identification markings" section).
The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.

The under-inflation alert is only reliable
if the system has been reinitialised
with the four tyre pressures correctly
adjusted.Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop
to have the system checked
or, following the repair of a puncture, to
have the original wheel, equipped with
a sensor, refitted.
The reinitialisation instruction is entered in
the instrument panel screen screen, with the
ignition on and the vehicle stationary.
F
P
ress button A select the function
F
P
ress and hold button A for at least
3
seconds
to reinitialise the under-inflation
detection system.
Reinitialisation of the system is confirmed
by the flashing of the warning lamp in the
instrument panel.
You then have to drive about 100 metres before
the warning lamp goes off.
Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed illumination
of the under-inflation warning lamp
indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is
not assured.
This alert is also displayed if:
-
o
ne or more wheels is not fitted with a
sensor,
-
a w
ireless device operating on the same
frequency is close to the vehicle,
-
t
here are accumulations of snow or ice in
the wings or wheels,
-
t
he state of charge of the tyre pressure
monitoring system battery is too low,
-
t
he wheel sensor identifiers have not been
memorised in the system by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop. Any tyre repair or replacement on a
wheel fitted with this system must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If you fit the second set of tyres
memorised in the system, a fault will
be signalled until the second set is
selected in the configuration menu.

Managing sets of wheels
and tyres
Selection of the other set of wheels and tyres
is is done via the instrument panel screen, with
the ignition on and the vehicle stationary.
After fitting the new set of wheels and
tyres, you should check and adjust the
tyre pressures to the values specified
on the tyre pressure label (see the
"Identification markings" section). The system automatically reinitialises
the reference pressure based on the
pressure in the new set (the under-
inflation detection warning lamp flashes
during the operation).
If you have had a second set of wheels and
tyres registered by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop, every time you change the
set of wheels (fitting a set of winter tyres, for
example), you must select the set you have just
fitted in the configuration menu.
