The TRC and DSC systems offer increased safety in normal driving, but
s
hould not encourage the driver to take
e
xtra risks or drive at high speed.
The correct operation of these
systems
depends on observation of
t
he
ma
nufacturer's
r
ecommendations
r
egarding the wheels (tyres and rims),
t
he braking components, the electronic
c
omponents and the assembly and
r
epair procedures used by CITROËN
d
ealers.
After
an impact, have the system
c
hecked by a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified
w
orkshop.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
g
round...), it may be advisable to deactivate the
D
SC and TRC systems, so that the wheels can
s
pin freely and regain grip.
Operating fault
However, it is recommended that these systems be reactivated as soon as possible.
F
P
ress this button briefly.
This
warning lamp comes on: the
T
RC system no longer acts on the
o
peration of the engine.
Reactivation
The TRC and DSC control systems are reactivated automatically every time the engine
i
s started. F
P
ress the button again to
r
eactivate it manually. Illumination
of this warning lamp, a
ccompanied by an audible signal,
i
ndicates a fault with the system.
Drive
carefully at reduced speed and contact
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to
h
ave the system checked.

Active City Brake
Active City B rake i s a d riving a ssistance s ystem t
hat aims to avoid a frontal collision or reduce
t
he speed of an impact if the driver does not
r
eact or reacts too late (brake application too
l
ate). This
system is designed to improve
d
riving safety.
It
remains the driver's responsibility to
c
ontinuously monitor the state of the
t
raffic and to assess the distances and
r
elative speeds of other vehicles.
Active
City Brake can in no
c
ircumstances replace the need for
v
igilance on the part of the driver.
Never
look at the laser sensor through
a
n optical instrument (magnifying glass,
m
icroscope...) at a distance of less than
1
0 centimetres: risk of eye injury.Automatic
braking occurs later than if
d
one by the driver, so as to intervene
o
nly when there is a high risk of
c
ollision.Principle
Using a laser sensor and a camera located at the top of the windscreen, this system detects
a
vehicle running in the same direction or
s
tationary ahead of your vehicle.
When
necessary, the vehicle's braking system
i
s operated automatically to reduce the speed
o
f impact or to help avoid a collision with the
v
ehicle
a
head.
Conditions for activation
Active City Brake only operates if the following
c onditions are met:
●
t
he engine is running,
●
t
he vehicle is in a for ward gear,
●
t
o trigger the pre-collision alert :
-
t
he speed is between 9 and 87 mph
(
15 and 140 km/h),
-
t
he difference in speed between your
v
ehicle and the one ahead is more than
a
bout 9 mph (15 km/h),
●
f
or braking assistance :
-
t
he speed is between about 18 and
5
0 mph (30 and 80 km/h),
-
t
he difference in speed between your
v
ehicle and the one ahead is more than
a
bout 18 mph (30 km/h),
●
f
or automatic pre-collision braking:
-
t
he speed is between about 6 and
5
0 mph (10 and 80 km/h),
-
t
he difference in speed between your
v
ehicle and the one ahead is more than
a
bout 6 mph (10 km/h),
●
t
he braking assistance systems (ABS,
E
BFD, EBA) are not faulty,
●
t
he trajectory control systems (TRC, DSC)
a
re not deactivated or faulty,
●
t
he vehicle is not in a tight corner,
●
t
he system has not been triggered during
t
he previous 10 seconds.

Operation
Three levels of operation are possible:
● P re-collision alert :
if a risk of collision w
ith a vehicle is detected, a warning lamp
c
omes on in the instrument panel together
w
ith an audible signal to encourage the
d
river to make an avoiding manoeuvre. The
t
hresholds for triggering the alert can be set.
●
Br
aking assistance :
increases the
b
raking started by the driver, only if a risk
o
f collision is detected.
●
A
utomatic pre-collision braking:
when
y
our vehicle is too close to or closing
t
oo quickly on the vehicle ahead of you,
t
he system automatically operates the
b
rakes to reduce the speed of impact. A
c
ollision can be avoided automatically if the

automatic braking may bring the vehicle to a
complete stop if the situation requires it.
The
brake lamps on your vehicle come on to
w
arn other road users. The
triggering of the system may cause
t

Fuel tank
Low fuel levelRefuelling
When the low fuel level is reached, t
his warning lamp comes on,
a
ccompanied by an audible signal.
The
message "LO FUEL" is displayed in place
o
f
the
range.
You have approximately 5 litres remaining.
In
certain
driving conditions and depending on
t
he
engine, the distance which can be travelled
w
ith
the
fuel remaining may be less than
3
0 miles
(50 km). To
refuel in complete safety:
F
Y
ou must stop the engine and switch off
the ignition (ignition in "LOCK" position
or "OFF" mode) .
F
P
ull the control on the lower dashboard,
d
river's side, to release the filler flap.
F
O
pen the fuel filler flap.
If
you run out of fuel, the emission
c
ontrol system warning lamp may come
o
n
in the instrument panel. It will go off
a
utomatically after the engine has been
s
tarted a few times. Refuelling
must only be done with the engine
stopped and the ignition switched off ( ignition s
witch in the "LOCK" position or " OFF"
mode).
The capacity of the fuel tank is approximately 35 litres.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
b
e registered by the fuel gauge.
A
label on the inside of the flap reminds you
w
hich type of fuel to use.
There
may be an inrush of air when removing
t
he filler cap. This vacuum is per fectly normal
a
nd results from the sealing of the fuel system.

Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with
E 10 type petrol biofuels (containing
10
% ethanol), conforming to European
s
tandards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85
type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol)
a
re reserved exclusively for vehicles marketed
f
or the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex
v
ehicles). The quality of the ethanol must
c
omply with European standard EN 15293.

Electrical energy economy mode*
System which manages the duration of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of charge in the battery.
After
the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio system, windscreen
w
ipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum combined duration of
t
wenty minutes.
This
period may be greatly reduced if the battery is not fully charged.
Let
the engine run for the duration
s
pecified to ensure that the battery
c
harge is sufficient.
Do
not repeatedly and continuously
r
estart the engine in order to charge the
b
attery.
A
flat battery prevents the engine from
s
tarting.
Refer
to the "Battery" section.
Switching to economy mode
Once this time has elapsed the active functions are put on standby.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automatically next time the vehicle is driven.
To restore the use of these functions
immediately,
start the engine and let it run for at
l
east 5 minutes.
