VISIBILITY
Manual guide-me-home lighting
Temporarily keeping the dipped beam
headlamps on after the vehicle's igni-
tion has been switched off makes the
driver's exit easier when the light is
poor.
Switching on
)
With the ignition off, "fl ash" the
headlamps using the lighting stalk.
)
A further "headlamp fl ash" switches
the function off.
Switching off
The manual guide-me-home lighting
switches off automatically after a set
time.
On vehicles fi tted with daytime run-
ning lamps, the dipped beams come on
when the vehicle is started.
* According to country. This warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel.
Automatic illumination of
headlamps
The sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps
are switched on automatically, without any ac-
tion on the part of the driver, when a low level
of external light is detected or in certain cases
of activation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a suffi -
cient level or after the windscreen wipers are
switched off, the lamps are switched off auto-
matically.
Activation
)
Turn ring A
to the "AUTO"
position.
The automatic illumination of head-
lamps is accompanied by a mes-
sage in the multifunction screen.
Deactivation
)
Turn ring A
to a position other than
"AUTO"
. Deactivation is accompa-
nied by a message in the multifunc-
tion screen.
The instruments and controls (instru-
ment panel, multifunction screen, air
conditioning control panel, etc.) are not
illuminated, except on switching to the
automatic lighting mode or when the
lighting is switched on manually.
This function can be activated/deactivat-
ed by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop. In some weather conditions (e.g.
low temperature or humidity),
the presence of misting on the
internal surface of the glass of
the headlamps and rear lamps
is normal; it disappears after
the lamps have been on for a
few minutes.

SAFETY
The ESP/ASR systems offer ex-
ceptional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
The correct operation of these
systems depends on observa-
tion of the manufacturer’s rec-
ommendations regarding wheels
(tyres and rims), braking compo-
nents, electronic components
and assembly and repair proce-
dures.
After an impact, have these sys-
tems checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a ve-
hicle which is bogged down, stuck in
snow, on soft ground...), it may be ad-
visable to deactivate the ASR and ESP
systems, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.
)
Press the "ESP OFF"
button, locat-
ed in the centre of the dashboard.
If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel and the indi-
cator lamp on the button comes
on, this indicates that the ASR and
ESP systems are deactivated.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automa-
tically each time the ignition is switched
back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).
)
Press the "ESP OFF"
button again
to reactivate them manually.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message in the multi-
function screen, this indicates a
malfunction of these systems.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
TRAJECTORY CONTROLSYSTEMS
The anti-slip regulation (also known as
Traction Control) optimises traction to
prevent skidding of the wheels, by acting
on the brakes of the driving wheels and
on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts
on the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to keep the vehicle on the
trajectory required by the driver, within
the limits of the laws of physics.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR) and
electronic stability programme (ESP)
This is indicated by fl ashing of
this warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel.
Activation
These systems are activated automati-
cally each time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event
of a grip or trajectory problem.

SAFETY
AIRBAGS
Deployment of the airbag(s) is
accompanied by a slight emis-
sion of harmless smoke and a
noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic cartridge incorpora-
ted in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but
sensitive individuals may expe-
rience slight irritation.
The noise of the detonation may
result in a slight loss of hearing
for a short time.
Front airbags
System which protects the driver and
front passenger in the event of a seri-
ous front impact in order to limit the risk
of injury to the head and chest.
The driver's airbag is fi tted in the centre
of the steering wheel; the front passen-
ger's airbag is fi tted in the dashboard
above the glove box.
Deployment
The airbags are deployed simultane-
ously, unless the passenger's front
airbag is deactivated, in the event of
a serious front impact applied to all or
part of the front impact zone A
, in the
longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on
a horizontal plane and directed from the
front to the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag infl ates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
dashboard to cushion their forward
movement.
Impact detection zones
A.
Front impact zone.
B.
Side impact zone.
The airbags do not operate when
the ignition is switched off.
This equipment will only deploy
once. If a second impact occurs
(during the same or a subse-
quent accident), the airbag will
not be deployed again.
System designed to maximise the safety
of the occupants (with the exception of
the rear centre passenger) in the event
of violent collisions. It supplements the
action of the force-limiting seat belts
(with the exception of the rear centre
passenger).
If a collision occurs, the electronic de-
tectors record and analyse the front and
side impacts sustained in the impact
detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the
airbags are deployed instantly and
protect the occupants of the vehicle
(with the exception of the rear centre
passenger); immediately after the
impact, the airbags defl ate rapidly
so that they do not hinder visibility
or the exit of the occupants,
- in the case of a minor or rear impact
or in certain roll-over conditions, the
airbags will not be deployed; the
seat belt alone is suffi cient to pro-
vide optimum protection in these
situations.
