Mirrors
Door mirrors
Each fitted with an adjustable mirror glass
providing the lateral rear ward vision necessary
for overtaking or parking. They can also be
folded for parking in confined spaces.As a safety measure, the mirrors should
be adjusted to reduce the "blind spots".The objects observed are, in reality,
closer than they appear.
Take this into account in order to
correctly judge the distance of vehicles
approaching from behind.

Blind Spot Monitoring System
This system warns the driver of the presence of
another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their
vehicle (areas masked from the driver's field
of vision), as soon as this presents a potential
danger.A fixed warning lamp appears in the door mirror
on the side in question:
-
i
mmediately, when being overtaken,
-
a
fter a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly.
This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a
substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's
responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to assess the distances and relative speeds of
other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.
This system is a driving aid that cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Activation / Deactivation
Activation and deactivation of the system is
done in the vehicle configuration menu. This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.
To deactivate the system, go to the vehicle
configuration menu again.
The indicator lamp goes off.
The system is automatically deactivated
when towing with a towbar approved by
CITROËN.
The status of the system remains in memory on
switching off the ignition.

Operation
The alert is given by a warning lamp which
comes on in the door mirror on the side in
question as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry,
bicycle - is detected.
The following conditions must be met for this:
-
a
ll vehicles are moving in the same
direction and in adjacent lanes,
-
t
he speed of your vehicle is between 7 and
87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
-
y
ou overtake a vehicle with a speed
difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),
-
a v
ehicle overtakes you with a speed
difference of less than 16 mph (25 km/h),
-
t
he traffic is flowing normally,
-
i
n the case of an overtaking manoeuvre,
if this is prolonged and the vehicle being
overtaken remains in the blind spot,
-
y
ou are driving on a straight or slightly
curved road,
-
y
our vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a
caravan, etc. No alert will be given in the following situations:
-
i
n the presence of non-moving objects
(parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps,
road signs, etc.),
-
w
ith vehicles moving in the opposite
direction,
-
d
riving on a winding road or a sharp corner,-
w
hen overtaking (or being overtaken by) a
very long vehicle (lorry, coach, etc.) which
is at the same time detected at the rear
in the blind spot angle and present in the
driver's for ward field of vision,
-
i
n very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in
front and behind are confused with a lorry
or a stationary object,
-
w
hen overtaking quickly.

In the event of a fault, this warning
lamp flashes for a few moments in
the instrument panel, accompanied
by illumination of the Service warning
lamp and the display of a message.The system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather
conditions (rain, hail, etc.).
In particular, driving on a wet sur face
or moving from a dry area to a wet area
can cause false alerts (for example, the
presence of a fog of water droplets in
the blind spot angle is interpreted as a
vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that
the sensors are not covered by mud,
ice
or snow.
Take care not to cover the warning zone
in the door mirrors or the detection
zones on the front and rear bumpers
with adhesive labels or other objects;
they may hamper the correct operation
of the system.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, direct the
lance at least 30 cm away from the
sensors.
Operating fault
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.

when reverse gear is engaged.
The image is displayed in the touch screen.The reversing camera cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of of the driver. Opening the tailgate causes the display

The reversing camera function may be
supplemented with parking sensors. High pressure jet washing
When washing your vehicle, do not
direct the lance within 30 cm of the
camera lens. Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.
The blue lines represent the general direction
of the vehicle (the gap represents the width of
your vehicle except for the door mirrors).
The red lines represent a distance of about
30 cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r.
The green lines represent distances of
about 1 and 2 metres beyond the edge of your
vehicle's rear bumper.
It is normal to see part of the number plate
displayed at the bottom of the screen.
