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 The ESP/ASR systems are no longer active.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

This driving assistance device enables you to drive at a constant speed of your choice, without the need to action the accelerator. It is active over speeds of around 40 km/h (approx. 25 mph).
The cruise control commands are located on the steering wheel.
Note : The information relating to the cruise control is displayed in zone A of the instrument panel.
Selection of the function
Rotate the control 1 to the "REG"position.
Selection of a cruise speed
On selection of the function via control 1, no cruise speed has yet been memo-rised.
Once the desired speed has been reached via action on the accel-erator, press button 2 or button 4. The cruise speed is then memo-rised. It is displayed in zone A of the instrument panel.
You can then release the accelera-tor pedal. The vehicle will automati-cally keep to the speed chosen.
Note : The speed of your vehicle may vary slightly in relation to that memorised.
If during the operation of cruise control, the system is unable to keep within the memorised speed (for example on a steep descent), t h e n t h e s p e e d fl a s h e s . A d a p t y o u r speed as necessary.
