from the rear of the vehicle.In order to ensure optimum visibility during
your manoeuvres, the mirror lightens
automatically when reverse gear is
engaged.

depending on the controls selected by the
driver:
-
d
irect arrival in the passenger compartment
(air intake),
-

Blind spot monitoring
This system warns the driver of the presence of
another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their
vehicle (areas hidden from the driver's field
of vision), as soon as this presents a potential
danger.
A 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 driving aid 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.
F
I
n the Driving/Vehicle menu
of the touch screen, select the
" Vehicle settings " tab then
" Safety " and activate/deactivate
" Blind spot sensors ".
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.
The status of the system remains in memory
when the ignition is switched off. The system is automatically deactivated
when towing with a towing device
approved by CITROËN.
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 must be 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
raffic is flowing normally,
-
w
hen overtaking a vehicle over a certain
period of time 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.

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
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.),
-
on
coming traffic,
-
d
riving on a winding road or a sharp corner,
-
w
hen overtaking or being overtaken by a
very long vehicle (lorry, bus, etc.) that is
detected in the rear blind spot but is also
present in the driver's front field of vision,
-
w
hen overtaking quickly,
-
i
n very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in
front and behind are confused with a lorry or
a stationary object.
Operating fault
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 weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered with 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.
In the event of a malfunction, you are warned
by the display of a message.

Operating fault
If a fault occurs when shifting
to reverse, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a message and an
audible signal (short beep).
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop
to have the system checked.
Reversing camera
The reversing camera function may be
supplemented with parking sensors.
The reversing camera cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
They are represented by lines marked "on
the ground" and do not allow the position
of the vehicle to be determined relative to
tall obstacles (for example: other vehicles,
e t c .) .
Some distortion of the image is normal.
It is normal to have part of the number
plate showing in the bottom of the screen. The green lines 3 represent distances of about
one and two metres beyond the edge of your
vehicle's rear bumper.
The turquoise blue curves 4 represent the
maximum turning circle.
Opening the tailgate causes the display to
disappear.
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.
High pressure washing
When washing your vehicle, keep the
lance at least 30 cm away from the
camera lens.
High pressure washing
When washing your vehicle, direct the
lance at least 30 cm away from the
sensors.
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image is displayed on the touch screen. The superimposed representation of guide
lines helps with the manoeuvre.
The blue lines 1 represent the general direction
of the vehicle (the gap represents the width of
your vehicle except for the door mirrors).
The red line 2 represents a distance of about
30 cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r.
Park Assist
This system provides active parking
assistance: it detects a parking space and then
steers in the appropriate direction to park in
this space while the driver controls the driving
direction, engagement of gears, acceleration
and braking.
To assist the driver in monitoring the
correct manoeuvring operation, the system
automatically triggers the display of the rear
view camera and the activation of the parking
sensors.
