Parking sensors
This function is a manoeuvring aid which
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must remain attentive and stay
in control of their vehicle.
They must always check the vehicle's
surroundings before undertaking a
manoeuvre.
During the entire manoeuvre, the driver
must ensure that the space remains clear.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
g e a r.
This is confirmed by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The function signals the presence of obstacles
both within the sensor detection zone and in
the vehicle path defined by the orientation of
the steering wheel.
In the example shown, only the obstacles
present in the shaded area will be signalled by
the audible assistance.The information on proximity is given by an
intermittent sound signal, the frequency of which
becomes more rapid as the vehicle approaches
the obstacle.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than about thirty
centimetres, the sound signal becomes
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)
allows you to identify which side the obstacle is on.
Adjusting the audible signal
Visual assistance
Using sensors located in the bumper, this
function warns of the proximity of obstacles
(e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) entering
their field of detection. On versions equipped with
CITROËN Connect Radio,
pressing this button opens
the audible signal volume
adjustment window.

Parking space search
F You should drive at a distance of between 0.50 m and 1.50 m from the row of parked
vehicles, without ever exceeding 19 mph
(30 km/h), until the system finds an available
space.
The parking space search stops over this limit.
The function automatically deactivates once
the vehicle speed exceeds 31 mph (50 km/h).
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 Driving/Vehicle menu
of 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 by an audible signal.
Preparing for the manoeuvre
F Move very slowly until the request to stop the vehicle is displayed: " Stop the vehicle"
and the "STOP" panel accompanied by an
audible signal. Once the vehicle has stopped, an instructions
page is displayed on the screen.

n bad weather, or during the winter, ensure
that the sensors and cameras are not
covered with mud, ice or snow.
Operating faults
When the function is not activated,
the button warning lamp flashing
and an audible signal indicates a
system fault.
If the fault occurs during the use of the system,
the warning lamp goes off.
If the fault in the parking sensors,
indicated by this warning lamp
coming on, occurs during use, it
causes the function to deactivate.
In the event of a fault, have the system checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. In the event of a fault with the
power steering, this warning lamp
flashes in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a message.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Tyre under-inflation
detection
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressure in all four
tyres, as soon as the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised after ever y tyre
pressure adjustment or wheel change .
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the pressure of one or more
tyres. The tyre under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
This system still requires you to check the
tyre inflation pressure (including the spare
wheel) every month as well as before a
long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
handling, extends braking distances and
causes premature tyre wear, particularly
in adverse conditions (heavy loads, high
speeds, long journeys).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressure specifications for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section.
Driving

133
Tyre pressures should be checked when
the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1 hour or after a journey of less than
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to the
pressures shown on the label.
Under-inflation alert

continuous illumination of this lamp,
an audible signal and a message
displayed on the screen.
F

R

educe speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and sudden braking.
F

S

top as soon as it is safe to do so.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on a simple visual check. F

I
f you have a compressor (such as the
one in the temporary puncture repair kit),
check the pressures of the four tyres when
cold. If it is not possible to make this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
or
F
I
n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment).
The warning remains active until the
system is reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressures of one or more
tyres, and after changing one or more wheels. Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres
are correct for the conditions of use
of the vehicle and conform to the
recommendations on the tyre pressure
label.
The under-inflation alert can only be relied
on if the reinitialisation of the system has
been done with the pressures in the four
tyres correctly adjusted.
The under-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
Reinitialisation of the system is done via the
touch screen, with the ignition on and the
vehicle stationary .
F I n the Driving/Vehicle menu,
select the " Driving functions "
tab, then " Reset under-
inflation detection ".
F

Sel
ect "Ye s" to confirm.
The reinitialisation is confirmed by the display
of a message and an audible signal.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.

If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,
never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
using the key, or the START/STOP button
if your vehicle has
K
eyless Entry and
Starting.
Fuel cut- of f
Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device
which cuts off the fuel supply in the event of a
collision.
Misfuel prevention
(Diesel)
(Depending on the country of sale.)
Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It helps
avoid the risk of engine damage that can result
from filling with the wrong fuel.
Operation
It remains possible to use a fuel can to fill
the tank.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in
direct contact with the flap of the misfuel
prevention device and pour slowly. Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may make
refuelling impossible.
Not all Diesel vehicles are fitted with
misfuel protection, so before travelling
abroad, we recommend that you check
with the CITROËN dealer network whether
your vehicle is suitable for the fuel pumps
in the country in which you intend to travel.
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the
Diesel tank, it comes into contact with the flap.
The system remains closed and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains
improve traction as well as the
behaviour of the vehicle when
braking.
Snow chains must be fitted only to the
front wheels. They must never be fitted to
"space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in
your country on the use of snow chains
and the maximum authorised speed.

It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the
road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with
alloy wheels, check that no part of the
chain or its fixings is in contact with the
wheel rim. Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Very cold climate screens
Removable protective screens which prevent
the accumulation of snow at the radiator
cooling fan.
Before fitting or removing a screen,
ensure that the engine is off and the
cooling fan has stopped.
It is recommended that the screens be
fitted and removed by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
