This driving assistance device alerts you if you are wandering from your lane (continuous or dotted line marking on the road surface).
It is designed especially for use on motorways and dual carriage-ways, operating only at speeds above 80 km/h (approx. 50 mph).
Activation / Deactivation
A press on control A activates the function, the warning lamp on the control lights up.
A second press on control A de-activates the function, the warning lamp on the control goes out.
Whenever you start the engine, the mode (activated/deactivated), selected when you last switched off the engine, is retained.
The driver must still remain attentive and in complete control of the ve-hicle.
Operation
Provided you are travelling at over 80 km/h (approx. 50 mph), if you cross a lane marking, you are alerted by a vibration within the cushion of your seat :
- oriented to the right for crossing a lane marking to the right,
- oriented to the left for crossing a lane marking to the left.
The system does not alert you while your direction indicator is o perating, nor for about 20 seconds after your direction indicator has stopped.
Note : In the event of an electronic malfunction, a message is displayed, the SERVICE warning lamp comes on and a sound signal is heard. Con-tact a CITROËN dealer. warning lamp warning

Sensors
The automatic regulation of the air conditioning inside the cabin uses a number of sensors that relieve you of the need to make adjust-ments outside the displayed tem-perature.
Be careful not to obstruct the sun-light sensor located on the dash-board.
Air inlet
Check that the exterior grille for the air inlet, at the bottom of the windscreen, is clean and free of dead leaves, snow, etc.
Air vents
The air vents to the face have grilles and thumbwheels so that you can a d j u s t t h e a i r fl o w a n d d i r e c t i o n (up-down, right-left).
Air circulation
A i r v e n t s o n t h e fl o o r u n d e r n e a t h the front seats provide enhanced heating for the rear seat positions : take care not to obstruct them.
D u s t fi l t e r / o d o u r fi l t e r (active carbon)
T h e r e i s a fi l t e r f o r e x c l u d i n g o d o u r s and dust.
T h i s fi l t e r h a s t o b e c h a n g e d i n accordance with the vehicle main-tenance schedule (see the Main-tenance Guide).
Air conditioning
To ensure that your system oper-ates correctly, it is recommended to have it checked regularly.
Water arising from condensation in the air conditioning drains away through a hole provided for this purpose. A pool of water may thus form under the vehicle when sta-tionary.
To keep the air conditioning com-pressor well sealed, it is essential to operate the air conditioning at least once in every month.
To be effective, the air condition-ing should only be used with the windows closed.
If after a lengthy stop in bright sunlight the interior temperature is excessive, ventilate the passen-ger compartment by opening the windows for a few moments, then close them again.
The air conditioning operates by using power from the engine. This results in a slight increase in fuel consumption.

2 - Adjustment of temperature
The system can regulate temperature on an indepen-dent basis for the left hand side and right hand side as well as for the rear of the passenger compartment. Front and rear passengers can thus adjust their own temperatures.
To display the desired temperature, press button :
- – to decrease the temperature,
- + to increase the temperature.
An adjustment around 21 will provide an agreeable temperature level. However, depending on your prefe-rence, anything between 18 and 24 is quite normal.
For optimum comfort, it is recommended to avoid an adjustment difference greater than 3 between right and left.
Note : Actual temperatures experienced in the passenger compartment are dependent on external factors and for this reason might not be identical to those displayed.
On entering the vehicle, the inside temperature may be much colder (or hotter) than would be comfortable. It serves no purpose to alter the temperature displayed in an attempt to attain your preference more rapidly. The system automatically does all in its power to make up the difference in temperature as soon as possible.
