In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines belo w:
F
 
T
 o   obtain   an   even   air   distribution,   take   care   not   to   obstruct   the   exterior   air   intake   grilles  
l
ocated at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well 
as
  the   air   extractor   located   in   the   boot.
F
 
D
 o   not   cover   the   sunshine   sensor,   located   on   the   dashboard;   this   is   used   for   regulation  
o
f   the   air   conditioning   system.
F
 
O
 perate   the   air   conditioning   system   for   at   least   5   to   10   minutes,   once   or   twice   a   month  
t
o   keep   it   in   per fect   working   order.
F
 
E
 nsure   that   the   passenger   compartment   filter   is   in   good   condition   and   have   the   filter  
e
lements   replaced   regularly.
 W
e   recommend   the   use   of   a   combined   passenger   compartment   filter.   Thanks   to   its  
s
pecial active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the 
occupants
  and   the   cleanliness   of   the   passenger   compartment   (reduction   of   allergic  
s
ymptoms,   bad   odours   and   greasy   deposits).
F
 
T
 o   ensure   correct   operation   of   the   air   conditioning   system,   you   are   also   advised   to   have  
i
t   checked   regularly   as   recommended   in   the   maintenance   and   warranty   guide.
F
 
I
 f   the   system   does   not   produce   cold   air,   switch   it   off   and   contact   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q
ualified
 w
 orkshop.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine, the  i nterior  t emperature  i s  v ery  h igh,  f irst  
v
entilate   the   passenger   compartment   for  
a
  few   moments.
Put
  the   air   flow   control   at   a   setting   high  
e
nough   to   quickly   change   the   air   in   the  
p
assenger
 c
 ompartment.
The
  air   conditioning   system   does   not  
c
ontain chlorine and does not present 
any
  danger   to   the   ozone   layer.
The condensation created by the air 
conditioning
  results   in   a   discharge  
o
f water under the vehicle which is 
per fectly
  normal.
When
 
towing
 
the
 
maximum
 
load
 
on
 
a
 
steep
 
gradient
 
in
 
high
 
temperatures,
 
switching
 
off
 
the
 
a
ir
 
conditioning
 
increases
 
the
 
available
 
engine
 
power
 
and
 
so
 
improves
 
the
 
towing
 
ability.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning s ystems   only   work   when   the   engine  
i
s   running.   To   maintain   a   comfortable  
t
emperature   in   the   passenger  
c
ompartment,   you   can   temporarily  
d
eactivate   the   Stop   &   Start   system   (see  
t
he   corresponding   section).

This system indicates the proximity of an obstacle   (person,   vehicle,   tree,   gate,   etc.)  
w
hich   comes   within   the   field   of   detection   of  
s
ensors   located   in   the   bumper.
Certain
  types   of   obstacle   (stake,   roadworks  
c
one,   etc.)   detected   initially   will   no   longer   be  
d
etected   at   the   end   of   the   manoeuvre   due   to  
t
he   presence   of   blind   spots.
Parking sensors
This function cannot, in any 
circumstances,  take   the   place   of   the  
v
igilance   of   the   driver. The
  system   is   switched   on   by   engaging   reverse  
g
ear.   This   is   accompanied   by   an   audible   signal.
The   system   is   switched   off   when   you   come   out  
o
f   reverse   gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an i
ntermittent   audible   signal,   the   frequency   of   which i
ncreases   as   the   vehicle   approaches   the   obstacle.
The
  sound   emitted   by   the   speaker   (right   or   left)
 i
ndicates   the   side   on   which   the   obstacle   is   located.
When the distance between the vehicle and 
the
  obstacle   becomes   less   than   approximately
 t
hirty   centimetres,   the   audible   signal   becomes
 c
ontinuous.
Rear parking sensors
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by d isplaying   bars   in   the   screen   or   the   instrument  
p
anel   which   move   progressively   nearer   to  
t
he   vehicle.   When   the   obstacle   is   near,   the  
"
Danger"   symbol   is   displayed.

Front parking  
sensors
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or   rear)   indicates   whether   the   obstacle  
i
s   in   front   or   behind.
The
  system   will   be   deactivated  
a
utomatically   if   a   trailer   is   being  
t
owed or a bicycle carrier is fitted on 
a
  towbar   (vehicle   fitted   with   a   towbar  
i
nstalled   in   line   with   the   manufacturer's  
r
ecommendations).In bad weather or in winter, ensure 
that the sensors are not covered with 
mud,
  ice   or   snow.   When   reverse   gear   is  
e
ngaged,   an   audible   signal   (long   beep)  
i
ndicates   that   the   sensors   may   be   dirty.
Certain
  sound   sources   (motorcycle,  
l
orry,   pneumatic   drill,   etc.)   may   trigger  
t
he   audible   signals   of   the   parking  
s
ensor   system.
In
 
addition   to   the   rear   parking   sensors,   the  
f
ront
 
parking   sensors   are   triggered   when   an  
o
bstacle is detected in front and the speed of 
the
 
vehicle   is   still   below   6   mph   (10   km/h).
The
 
front   parking   sensors   are   interrupted   if  
t
he
 
vehicle   stops   for   more   than   three   seconds  
i
n
 
for ward   gear,   if   no   further   obstacles   are  
d
etected or when the speed of the vehicle 
exceeds   6   mph   (10   km/h).
Deactivation / Activation of the 
front and rear parking sensors
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of t
he   system,   when   reverse   gear   is  
e

c
hanges   to   alert   mode   and   the

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking, detecting a parking space then controlling the steering to park in the space.
I t   controls   the   steering   while   the   driver   manages   the   accelerator,   brakes,   gears   and   clutch   (manual   gearbox).   During   phases   of   entry   into   and   exit   from  
a
  parking   space,   the   system   provides   visual   and   audible   information   to   the   driver   in   order   to   make   the   manoeuvre   safe.   It   may   be   necessary   to   move  
f
or wards   and   backwards   more   than   once.
The
  Park   Assist   system   cannot   in   any  
c
ircumstances   replace   the   need   for  
v
igilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The
  driver   must   remain   in   control   of  
t
heir   vehicle   ensuring   that   the   space  
r
emains   clear   during   the   manoeuvre.
In
  some   circumstances,   the   sensors  
m
ay   not   detect   small   obstacles   located  
i
n   their   blind   spots. Changing
  tyre   sizes   (out-size   tyres,  
w
inter   tyres,   ...)   can   inter fere   with  
t
he   correct   operation   of   the   parking  
a
ssistance   system.
During
  a   manoeuvre   the   steering   wheel  
t
urns   quickly:   do   not   hold   the   steering  
w
heel, do not place your hand between 
the
  spokes   of   the   steering   wheel   and  
t
ake   care   with   loose   and   bulky   clothing,  
s
carves,   handbags...   There   is   a   risk   of  
in
jury. For
  entry   into   a   parking   space   (parallel  
p
arking)   the   system   does   not   detect  
s
paces   which   are   clearly   much   smaller  
o
r   larger   than   the   size   of   the   vehicle.
This
  "parking   assistance"   system  
i
s   activated   automatically   during  
m
anoeuvres;   it   is   therefore   possible  
t
hat   a   symbol   comes   on   in   the   screen,  
a
ccompanied   by   an   audible   signal,  
w
ithout   affecting   the   manoeuvre.The
  selection   of   the   type   of   manoeuvre  
(
entering   or   exiting   a   parallel   parking  
s
pace)   prevents   a   change   to   STOP  
m
ode   of   Stop   &   Start.
In
  STOP   mode,   this   selection   restarts  
t
he
 eng
 ine.
The
  driver   can   take   control   at   any   time   by   gripping   the   steering   wheel.

In bad weather and in winter, ensure 
that the sensors are not covered by 
road  dirt,   ice   or   snow.
In
  the   event   of   a   fault,   have   the   system  
c
