R is selected.
•

Backwards, mode D

is selected.
Release the selector fully after each push; it
will then return to its initial position.
Special cases
To avoid mode N (quick change from D to R and
back again):
►

In mode
R, push backwards past the point of
resistance, mode D is selected.
►

In mode
D, push forwards past the point of
resistance,
mode R is selected.
►

the point of resistance.
Steering-mounted controls
(Depending on equipment)
In mode M or D, the steering-mounted control
paddles can be used to change gear manually.
They cannot be used to select neutral or to
engage or disengage reverse gear.


► Pull the " +" or "-" paddle towards you and
release to shift up or down a gear, respectively.
Information displayed on
the instrument panel
When the ignition is switched on, the gearbox
status is displayed on the instrument panel:
P Parking
R Reverse
N Neutral
D1...8 Automatic forward gear
M1...8 Manual forward gear
The state of the gearbox remains displayed on
the instrument panel for a few seconds after
switching off the ignition.
Operation
Only appropriate mode change instructions are
validated.
With the engine running, if it is necessary to
depress the brake pedal to change modes,
an alert message will be displayed on the
instrument panel.
With the engine running and the brakes
released, if R, D or M is selected, the
vehicle moves off, even without pressing the
accelerator pedal.
Never depress the accelerator and brake
pedals at the same time - risk of damage to
the gearbox!
If you open the driver's door while mode
N is engaged, an audible signal will
sound. The audible signal stops when the
driver's door is closed.
At very low speeds, opening the driver's door triggers the gearbox to switch to
mode P.
In the event of battery failure, it is
essential to place the chock(s) supplied
with the tool kit against one of the wheels to
immobilise the vehicle.
Special aspects of automatic mode
The gearbox selects the gear that provides
optimal performance based on ambient
temperature, road profile, vehicle loading and
driving style.
For maximum acceleration, press the accelerator
fully down (kick-down). The gearbox changes
down automatically or holds the selected gear
until the maximum engine speed is reached.

activated. If you press and hold one of the
speed setting modification buttons, your
vehicle may change speed very abruptly.
When descending a steep hill , the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle

Vision.

148
Driving
For ''parallel'' parking, the space must at
a minimum be equal to the length of your
vehicle plus 0.60 m.
For ''bay'' parking, the width of the space
must be equal to the width of your vehicle
plus 0.70 m.
If the parking sensors function has been
deactivated in the touch screen, it will be
automatically reactivated when the system is
activated.


When the system finds an available space, " OK"
is displayed on the parking view, accompanied

surroundings during the manoeuvre.
During the manoeuvre
The system controls the vehicle’s steering. It
gives instructions on the manoeuvring direction
when starting "parallel" entry and exit parking
manoeuvres, and for all "bay" entry manoeuvres.
With MyCitroën Play or MyCitroën Drive
These instructions are displayed as a symbol
accompanied by a message:
"Move backwards".
“Go forwards".
The manoeuvring status is indicated by these
symbols:
Manoeuvre in progress (green).
Manoeuvre cancelled or finished (red).
The arrows indicate that the driver must
take back control of the vehicle.
With MyCitroën Drive Plus
These instructions are displayed as a symbol
accompanied by a message:
"Drive backwards".
“Drive forwards".
The manoeuvring status is indicated by these
symbols:
Manoeuvre pending.
Manoeuvre in progress (green).
Manoeuvre finished or aborted.
The hands on the steering wheel indicate
that the driver must take back control of the
vehicle.
The maximum speed during manoeuvres is
indicated by this symbol:
53 mph or 5 km/h (for parking space entry,
the manoeuvre is possible up to 5 mph or
7

km/h)
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel performs rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel or put your hands between
the spokes of the steering wheel. Watch out
for any objects that could interfere with the
manoeuvre (loose clothing, scarf, tie, etc.).
Risk of injury!
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly

towards you.
The driver should check that no objects or
people are obstructing the vehicle’s path.

6The images from the camera(s) displayed on the touch screen may be
distorted by the terrain.
In shady areas, or in inadequate sunlight
or lighting conditions, the image may be
darkened and with lower contrast.
The manoeuvre can be permanently interrupted
at any time, either by the driver or automatically
by the system.
Interruption by the driver can be done by:
–

taking over control of the steering.
–


activating the direction indicator lamps on the
opposite side to that of the manoeuvre.
–


unfastening the seat belt.
–


switching off the ignition.
The manoeuvre is automatically interrupted by
the system in the following cases:
–


vehicle exceeding the speed limit of
5


mph (7 km/h) during parking space entry
manoeuvres, or 3
mph (5 km/h) during parking
space exit manoeuvres.
–

activation of anti-slip regulation on a slippery
road.
–


opening of a door or the boot.
–


engine stall.
–


system malfunction.
–


after 10 manoeuvres to enter or exit a parallel
parking space and after 7 manoeuvres to enter a
parking bay

.
Interrupting the manoeuvre automatically
deactivates the function. Depending on audio equipment, the manoeuvre
symbol is displayed in red, accompanied by the
"Manoeuvre cancelled" message on the touch
screen.
A message prompts the driver to take back
control of the vehicle.
The function is deactivated after a few seconds
and returns to the initial display.
Depending on audio equipment, this
indicator lamp goes off.
End of the parking space entry or exit
manoeuvre
The vehicle stops as soon as the manoeuvre is
completed.
Depending on audio equipment, the manoeuvre
symbol is displayed in red, accompanied by the
message "Manoeuvre completed" on the touch
screen.
Depending on audio equipment, when the
function is deactivated, this indicator lamp
goes off, accompanied by an audible signal.
When entering a parking space, the driver may
be required to complete the manoeuvre.
Operating limits
– The system may suggest an inappropriate
parking space (parking prohibited, work in
progress with damaged road surface, location
alongside a ditch, etc.).
–

The system may indicate that a space has
been found but will not offer it because of a fixed
obstacle on the opposite side of the manoeuvre,
which would not allow the vehicle to follow a
trajectory required for parking.
–

The system may indicate that a space has
been found but the manoeuvre will not be
triggered, because the width of the lane is
insufficient.
–


The system is not designed for performing the
parking manoeuvre on a sharp bend.
–


The system does not detect spaces that
are much larger than the vehicle itself or that
are delimited by obstacles that are too low
(pavements, studs, etc.) or too thin (trees, posts,
wire fences, etc.).
–


If the boot is heavily loaded, the tilt of the
vehicle towards the rear may interfere with the
distance measurements.
Do not use the function under the
following exterior conditions:
–

Alongside a soft shoulder (e.g. ditch) or
quay or on the edge of a drop.
–


When the road surface is slippery (e.g. ice).
If any of the following malfunctions
occurs, do not use the system:
–

If a tyre is under-inflated.
–


If one of the bumpers is damaged.
