Cornering lighting
If your vehicle is so equipped, this system
makes use of the beam from a front foglamp
to illuminate the inside of a bend, when the
main or dipped beam headlamps are on and
the vehicle speed is below 25 mph (40 km/h)
(urban driving, winding road, intersections,
parking manoeuvres, etc.). Without cornering lighting

In case of towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
requires extra care from the driver.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F
T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towed load on an incline
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.

f this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible. New vehicle
Do not pull a trailer before having driven at
least 620 miles (1,000 kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height
of your vehicle.
For more information on Headlamp
beam height adjustment , refer to the
corresponding section.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aid
functions are automatically disabled if an
approved towing device is used. If the exterior temperature is high, it is
recommended that the engine be allowed
to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle
comes to a stop, to facilitate its cooling.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has
a secret code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised to enable
vehicle start.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks
the engine management system a moment
after the ignition is switched off and prevents
unauthorised engine starting.
In the event of a fault, you are
informed by the illumination of this
warning lamp, an audible signal and
a message in the screen.
In this case, your vehicle will not start; contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
For safety and theft protection reasons,
do not leave your electronic key in the
vehicle, even when you are close to it.
It is recommended that you keep it with
you.

In temperate conditions, do not let the
engine idle to warm up but move off
straight away and drive at moderate
speed.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!
In very extreme wintry conditions
(temperature below -23°C), to guarantee
correct operation and the longevity of
the mechanical elements of your vehicle,
engine and gearbox, the engine must
be left running for four minutes before
starting the vehicle.

Never switch off the ignition before the
vehicle is at a complete stop. With the
engine off, the braking and steering
assistance systems are also cut off: risk of
loss of control of the vehicle.
When you leave the vehicle, keep the key
with you and lock the vehicle.
Energy economy mode
After switching off the engine (position 1 –
Stop ), for a maximum of 30 minutes you
can still use functions such as the audio and
telematics system, the wipers, dipped beam
headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc.

If the camera has confirmed
the presence of a vehicle or a
pedestrian, this warning lamp
flashes once the function is acting
on the vehicle's brakes.
Important: if operation of the
automatic emergency braking is
triggered, you should take back
control of your vehicle and brake
with the pedal to add to or finish the
automatic braking action.
The driver can take back control of the vehicle
at any time by sharply turning the steering
wheel and/or pressing the accelerator pedal.
The point at which braking is triggered
may be adjusted depending on the driving
actions of the driver, such as movement
of the steering wheel or actions on the
accelerator pedal.
Operation of the function may be felt by
slight vibration in the brake pedal.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
the automatic braking is maintained for 1
to 2 seconds. With a manual gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the
vehicle comes to a complete stop, the
engine may stall.
With an automatic or electronic gearbox,
in the event of automatic emergency
braking until the vehicle comes to a
complete stop, keep the brake pedal
pressed down to prevent the vehicle from
starting off again.
Specific conditions for operation
The vehicle's speed must be between 3 mph
and 53 mph (5 km/h and 85 km/h) when a
moving vehicle is detected.
The vehicle's speed must not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h) when a stopped vehicle is detected.
The vehicle's speed must not exceed 37 mph
(60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
The ESC system must not be faulty.
The ASR system must not be deactivated.
All passenger seat belts must be fastened.
Sporty driving or driving on winding roads may
impede the function.
After an impact, the function automatically
stops operating. Consult a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically
activated at every engine start-up. Deactivation of the system is
signalled by the illumination of this
indicator lamp, accompanied by the
display of a message.
F
I
n the Driving/Vehicle menu
of the touch screen, select the
" Vehicle settings " tab then
" Safety " and activate/deactivate
" Collision risk and auto
braking ".
The camera may be disrupted or not work
in the following situations:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate street
lighting, falling snow, heavy rain, dense
f o g , e t c .),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp
road, leaving a tunnel, alternating

-
c
amera obstructed (mud, frost, snow,
condensation, etc.).
On versions with camera alone, this
message indicates to you that the camera
is obstructed: " Driving aids camera:
visibility limited, see user guide ".
In these situations, detection performance
may be reduced.
Using the camera, this function acts on the
vehicle's braking system.

Driver inattention alert
Using a camera placed at the top
of the windscreen, the system
assesses the driver's level of
vigilance by identifying variations
in trajectory compared to the lane
markings.
This system is particularly suited to fast roads
(speed higher than 40 mph (65 km/h)).
When the system interprets the behaviour of
the vehicle as indicating a certain fatigue or
inattention threshold on the part of the driver, it
triggers the first level of alert. After three first level alerts, the system triggers
a new alert with the message "
Take a break!",
accompanied by a more pronounced audible
signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor road
sur face or strong winds), the system may
give alerts independent of the driver's
level of vigilance. The following situations may interfere with
the operation of the system or prevent it
working:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate lighting of
the roadway, falling snow, heavy rain,
dense fog, etc.),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp
road, leaving a tunnel, alternating
shade and light, etc.),
-
w

camera: dirty, misted up, frost-covered,
snow-covered, damaged or covered by

(snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks,
e t c .),
-
c
lose to the vehicle ahead (lane
markings not detected),
-
r
oads that are narrow, winding, etc.
The driver is then alerted by the message
"
Ta k e c a r e ! ", accompanied by an audible
signal.

Towing device
Load distribution
F D istribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight approaches
the maximum permitted without exceeding
it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. The maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10
% for every
1,000 metres of altitude.
Use towing devices and their genuine
harnesses approved by CITROËN. It is
recommended that the installation be
per formed by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towing device is not fitted by
a CITROËN dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aid
functions are automatically disabled if an
approved towing device is used. Obser ve the maximum authorised towable
weight, indicated on your vehicle's
registration certificate, the manufacturer's
label as well as in the Technical data
section of this guide.
Complying with the maximum
authorised nose weight (ball joint)
also includes the use of accessories
(bicycle carriers, tow boxes, etc.).
Obser ve the legislation in force in the
country in which you are driving.
Remove the quickly detachable towball
when not towing a trailer.
Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as air conditioning,
heated rear screen, etc.
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.
Energy economy mode
System which manages the duration of use of
certain functions to conser ve a sufficient level
of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use
functions such as the audio and telematics
system,
windscreen wipers, dipped beam
headlamps,
courtesy lamps, etc. for a
maximum combined duration of about forty
minutes.
Entering the mode
A message appears on the touch screen
indicating that the vehicle has switched to
economy mode and the active functions are put
o n st a n d by.
If a telephone call is being made at this
time, it will be maintained for around 10
minutes with the Bluetooth hands-free
system of your audio system.
Exiting the mode
These functions will be automatically restored
the next time the vehicle is used.
In order to restore the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let it run:
