Never select positions P or R if the vehicle is not stationary.
If, while the vehicle is moving, position N is engaged inadvertently, allow the engine to idle before engaging position D or M.
U s i n g t h e a u t o m a t i c g e a r b o x
This position of the selector is used to prevent the vehicle from moving when you are stationary.
- To select position P, move the selector back to the highest po- s i t i o n ( t o w a r d s R), then push it forwards and then to the left.

1. To start the engine, the selector has to be in position P or N.
2. Action the starter.
3. When the engine is running, place the selector on R, D or M as required.
4. Check, in the instrument panel, the position engaged.
5. Release the brake pedal and accelerate.
Note :
- If the selector is not in position P, a message “place automatic gear-box in position P ” appears on the multifunction screen, accompa- n i e d b y a b e e p a n d t h e fl a s h i n g o f P in the instrument panel.
A U T O M A T I C G E A R B O XG E N E R A L
- To avoid incoherence between the position of the selector and the actual position of the gear-box, always exit from position Pwhen you switch on the ignition and press the brake pedal.
Otherwise, when the ignition is on or the engine is running :
1. Reposition the selector in position P,
2. Put your foot on the brake pedal and then select the gear you want.
- To exit position P, move the se-lector to the right and then to the position you want.
- Only engage this position when the vehicle is completely sta-tionary. In this position, the front wheels are locked. Make sure that the selector is correctly po-sitioned.
Only engage this position when the vehicle is stationary. To pre-vent snatching, do not accelerate too soon after selection.
Never select position N if the vehi-cle is moving.

IIAutomatic mode
- Move the selector to position D.
The gearbox constantly selects the gear that is best suited to the following parameters :
- driving style,
- r o a d p r o fi l e
- vehicle load.
The gearbox is then operating in auto-adaptive mode, without requiring any intervention on your part.

Observations :
When braking, the gearbox may change down automatically in ord er to provide effective engine braking.
If you lift your foot off the accelerator abruptly, the gearbox will not engage a higher gear.
Temporary manual operation when in automatic mode
By pulling either of the levers “ + ” or “ - ”, you can exercise temporary con-trol over the changing of gears. The request to change gear w ill be taken i n t o a c c o u n t .

SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
The ESP system offers increased driving safety but is not in place to encourage the driver to take addi-tional risks or to drive at excessive speeds.
The functioning of this system is subject to compliance with the manufacturer’s recommendations on wheels (tyres and rims), brake parts and electronic components, as well as with CITROËN’s as-parts and electronic components, components,
sembly and repair procedures.
After any collision, have this system checked by a CITROËN dealer.After any collision, have this system , have t
Electronic stability programme (ESP) and traction control (ASR)
These systems are closely connected to the ABS and additional to it. In the event of a loss of control of the vehicle by the driver, the ESP system acts automatically on one or more brakes and also on the engine to bring the vehicle back on trajectory. The ASR system optimises traction and prevents wheel spin by acting on the brakes of the driving wheels, as well as on the engine. It also improves steering stability during acceleration.
Operation :
When either the ESP or ASR system is in operation, the ESP/ASR warning l a m p fl a s h e s.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (vehicle stuck in snow, soft ground, e tc.) it may prove useful to deactivate the ESP/ASR system to allow the wheels to spin and thus regain traction.
- Press on control A, the ESP/ASR warning lamp and the control light up. The ESP/ASR systems are no longer active.
The ESP/ASR systems will activate again :
- Automatically after the ignition has been switched off.
- Automatically above a speed of 50 km/h (30 mph).
- Manually with a new press on control A.
Operational anomaly
If the systems malfunction, the ESP/ASR warning lamp comes on, ac-companied by a sound signal and a message on the multifunction display. Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the system checked.companied by a sound signal and a message on the multifunction by a sound

REAR VIEW MIRRORS
ADJUSTMENT
This operates with the ignition switched on.
From the driver’s seat position, se-lect the rear view mirror by moving control 1 to the left or right, then adjust the rear view mirror in the four directions by acting on con-trol 2.
Demisting-deicing of the rear view mirrors is coupled with that for the rear screen.
REAR VIEW MIRRORS
FOLDBACK
When the vehicle is parked, the rear view mirrors can be folded back ei-ther manually or electrically.
Electrically
From the central position, a press to the rear on control 1 folds the rear view mirrors back.
The opposite movement is ob-tained by pressing again on the rear of the control.
Electrically and automatically
The rear view mirrors also fold back automatically when you lock the doors.
The rear view mirrors redeploy when you unlock the vehicle, un-less the foldback was performed manually. In this case, you have to press on the rear of the control to deploy them.
Note : The automatic foldback of the rear view mirrors can be deactivated. Contact a CITROËN dealer.
AUTOMATIC TILTING OF
REAR VIEW MIRRORS IN
REVERSE GEAR
This functions enables you to au-tomatically see the ground (pave-ment) when parking using reverse gear.
A d j u s t i n g t h e i n d e x e d p o s i t i o n of the driver’s and passenger’s rear view mirrors
With the engine running :
- Select the rear view mirror using control 1.
- Engage reverse gear, the glass of the rear view mirror positions itself automatically to give a bet-ter sight of the pavement.
- If necessary, adjust your rear view mirror to your preference by means of the electrical control 2. This position is then memorised.
Stopping the rear view mirror i n d e x i n g f u n c t i o n
To stop the function, move control 1 to the central position.
Note : The rear view mirrors re-turn to their original position :
- 20 seconds after reverse gear has been disengaged,
- once you reach a speed of over 10 km/h (approx. 6 mph).
