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

(

are then alerted by the display of
t
his warning lamp, accompanied by
a
n audible signal. 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
he engine to stall, unless the driver
d
epresses the clutch pedal quickly
e
nough during automatic braking.

Setting the alert thresholds
Press this button repeatedly to cycle through the thresholds.
The
default setting is "Normal".
The
alert
thresholds determine how you want to be warned of the imminent risk of collision with the
v
ehicle
ahead of you.
You
can
choose one of three thresholds:
A.
"
Far",
to be given early warning (cautious driving).
B.
"
Normal".
C.
"
Close", for a later warning (sporty driving).
Deactivation / Reactivation
Press this button for more than 3 seconds.
P ress the button again to reactivate the system.
The
system is automatically reactivated every
t
ime the engine is started with the key or the
"
START/STOP" button.
This
indicator lamp comes on in the
in

pan
el.
This
indicator lamp comes on in the
i
nstrument panel and the message
"
PCS OFF" is displayed.

Never leave accumulations of snow or any object projecting above the bonnet
o
r in front of the roof: this might fall into
t
he field of vision of the sensor and
g
enerate a detection.
Operating limits
The system o nly d etects v ehicles (cars, lorries) t
hat are stationary or moving in the same
d
irection as your vehicle. In
difficult weather conditions (very
h
eavy rain, snow, fog, hail...), braking
d
istances increase, which can reduce
t
he ability of the system to avoid a
c
ollision.
The
driver must therefore remain
par
ticularly
v
igilant.
The
system is not triggered or is interrupted if
t
he
d
river:
-
a
ccelerates strongly (even if the speed
l
imiter is on),
-
o
r turns the steering wheel suddenly
(
avoiding
m
anoeuvre).
Detection
capability is less effective if:
-
y
ou are driving on roads with pronounced
b
ends and/or on roads in poor condition,
-
y
our vehicle is excessively loaded, as
t
his changes the horizontal attitude of the
v
ehicle.
-
y
our vehicle skids.
It
does not detect small vehicles
(
bicycles, motorcycles), pedestrians or
a
nimals, nor non-reflective stationary
ob
jects.Unwanted triggering of the system
It is possible for the system to detect a risk of imminent collision and start working, in the
fo
llowing
c
onditions
in par
ticular:
-
d
etection of an object located close to the
e
dge of the road entering a corner (safety
b
arrier, lamp post or road sign),
-
d
etection of a structure located at the top
o
r bottom of a steep slope (advertising
h
oarding, steet lighting),
-
d
etection of reflective objects (central
r
eservation...) in the road,
-
d
etection of the upper bar of a bridge or a
t
raffic light gantry,
-
p
assing a vehicle travelling in the other
d
irection in a corner,
-
p
assing a vehicle traveling in the other
d
irection, at a crossroads, when your
v
ehicle is turning left or right,
-
i
f the vehicle ahead of you sends up water
o
r snow,
-
i
f your vehicle stops very close to an
ov
erhanging wall or other vehicles,
-
w
hen your vehicle closes rapidly on the
v
ehicle
a
head,
-
i
f the vehicle is raised or lowered,
-
i
f the vehicle passes through a plastic
c
urtain,
-
i
f driving through mist or smoke,
-
i
f the sensor is misaligned (following
r
eplacement after a collision).

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.
*
O
nly on vehicles with the "Keyless Entry and
S
tarting" system.

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
H owever, check regularly that the terminals a
re correctly tightened (versions without quick
r
elease terminals) and that the connections
a
re clean.Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for details of the
r
eplacement intervals for these
c
omponents.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the e ngine oil is changed.
Refer
to the manufacturer's
s
ervice schedule for details of
t
he replacement interval for this
c
omponent.
Oil filter
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
O ther wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Depending
on the environment (e.g. dusty
a
tmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g.
city driving), replace them twice as often
if necessary .
A
clogged passenger compartment filter may
h
ave an adverse effect on the per formance
o
f the air conditioning system and generate
u
ndesirable
o
dours.
When
carrying out any operation on the
12
V battery, refer to the corresponding section
f
or details of the precautions to be taken before
s
tarting work.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Refer
to the manufacturer's service
s
chedule for the checking interval for
t
his
c
omponent.
Clutch
The clutch is operated mechanically and requires r egular a djustment.
Refer
to the manufacturer's service schedule
f
or information on when the adjustment should
be c
hecked.In
the event of an operating fault
(
difficulty moving off, for example),
c
ontact a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified
w
orkshop.
Versions
equipped
with
Stop

are
f
itted
with
