Warning/indicator lampStateCause Action/Observations
Anti-lock
Braking System
(ABS) Fixed.
The anti-lock braking system has a
fault. The vehicle retains conventional braking capabilities.
Drive carefully at reduced speed and contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop without
d e l ay.
Under-inflation Fixed, accompanied
by an audible signal
and a message. One or more wheels has insufficient
pressure.
Check the pressure of the tyres as soon as possible.
This check should preferably be carried out when the
tyres are cold.
You must reinitialise the system after adjusting one or
more tyre pressures and after changing one or more
wheels.
For more information on Tyre under-inflation
detection
, refer to the corresponding section.
+ Flashing then fixed,
accompanied by
the Ser vice warning
lamp.The system is faulty: tyre pressures
are no longer monitored.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Dynamic
stability control
(DSC/ASR) Fixed.
The button or the thumbwheel is
operated and the indicator lamp
comes on.
The DSC/ASR is deactivated.
DSC: dynamic stability control.
ASR: anti-slip regulation. Press the button or turn the thumbwheel to activate
the DSC/ASR, its indicator lamp goes off.
The DSC/ASR system is activated automatically when
the vehicle is started.
If the system is deactivated, it is reactivated
automatically once a speed of around 30 mph
(50
km/h) is reached.
For more information on the Electronic stability
control (ESC) and, in particular, DSC/ASR, refer to
the corresponding section.

Malfunctions
If a fault occurs, this warning lamp
comes on accompanied by a
message and an audible signal.
In the event of a fault with the
power steering, this warning lamp
flashes in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a message.
If the lateral distance between your vehicle
and the space is too great, the system may
not be able to measure the space.
Any object projecting beyond the dimensions
of the vehicle (e.g. a ladder on the roof or a
towball) will not be taken into account by the
Park Assist system during a manoeuvre.
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered by road dirt,
ice or snow.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.High pressure jet washing
When washing your vehicle, keep the lance at
least 12 inches (30
cm) away from the sensors.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressure in all four
tyres, as soon as the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the wheel
speed sensors with reference values, which
must be reinitialised ever y time the tyre
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed .
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the pressure of one or more
tyres. The under-inflation detection system 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 (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres worsens
road-holding, lengthens braking distances,
causes premature wear of the tyres,
particularly in adverse conditions (heavy
loads, high speeds, long journeys).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section.

Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when the tyres
are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or
after a journey of less than 6
miles (10 km)
at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3
bar to the pressures
shown on the label.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
Under-inflation alert
This warning is indicated by
continuous illumination of this
warning lamp, an audible signal
and, depending on equipment, a
message displayed on the screen.
F
R
educe speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and sudden braking.
F
S
top the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so. The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual
check.
F
I
f you have a compressor, such as the one
in the temporary puncture repair kit, check
the pressures of the four tyres when cold.
F
I
f it is not possible to make this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
or
F
I
n case of a puncture, use the temporary
tyre repair kit or the spare wheel (depending
on equipment).
The alert is kept active until the system is
reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressures of one or more
tyres, and after changing one or more wheels. Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres
are correct for the conditions of use
of the vehicle and conform to the
recommendations on the tyre pressure
label.
The under-inflation alert can only be relied
on if the reinitialisation of the system has
been done with the pressures in the four
tyres correctly adjusted.
The under-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
The system must be reinitialised with the
ignition on and the vehicle stationary:
-
i
n the vehicle configuration menu for
vehicles fitted with a touch screen.
-
v
ia the button on the dashboard for vehicles
without a touch screen.
With/Without audio system
F Hold this button down.

Reinitialisation is confirmed by a high-pitched
audible signal.
A deep tone audible signal indicates that the
reinitialisation has not been carried out.

select the " Driving functions "
tab, then " Reset under-
inflation detection ".
F

ect " Ye s" to confirm.
A message is displayed and an audible signal
sounds to confirm the reset operation.
Malfunction
In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
tyres is no longer assured.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop. Before doing anything to the system,
the pressures of the four tyres must be
checked and the system reinitialised.
The flashing and then constant illumination of
the under-inflation warning lamp accompanied
by illumination of the Ser vice warning lamp
indicates a fault in the system.
A message appears, accompanied by an
audible signal.

Checking tyre pressures
The tyre pressures should be checked when
cold at least monthly.
The pressures given on the label are valid for
cold tyres. If you have driven for more than
10 minutes or more than 6 miles (10 kilometres)
at more than 30
mph (50 km/h), the tyres will be
warm; in this case 0.3
bar (30 kPa) should be
added to the pressures given on the label.
Never reduce the pressure of a warm tyre.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.Identification markings
Different visible markings for the identification
of your vehicle.
A. Vehicle identification number (VIN) on
the front right seat floor
The number is engraved on the body structure.B. Vehicle identification number (VIN) on
the dashboard
The number is on a label, visible through the
windscreen.
C. Manufacturer's label
This tamperproof label is affixed to the driver’s
door aperture. D. Tyres label

aperture.
It bears the following information about the
tyres:
-
t
he tyre pressures, unloaded and loaded,
-
t
he tyre specification, made up of the

he spare tyre pressure.The vehicle may be originally equipped
with tyres with higher load and speed
indices than those indicated on the label,
without affecting inflation pressure.
It bears the following information:
-
t he name of the manufacturer,
- t he European Whole Vehicle Type Approval
number,
-
t
he vehicle identification number (VIN),
-
t
