DRIVING
Deactivation
Press on button 3
.
This action causes the
information "OFF"
to
appear on the instru-
ment panel screen.
This action does not cancel the
memorised maximum speed which
remains displayed in zone A
of the
instrument panel.
Override of the programmed
speed
The accelerator pedal is equipped
with an end-of-travel switch. If you
action this switch by pressing the
pedal hard down, you can exceed
the memorised maximum speed at
any time.
During the time the speed is be-
ing exceeded, the displayed speed
fl ashes.
You have only to release the ac-
celerator pedal to return below the
maximum speed and render the
function active again.
Return to normal driving
)
By moving the control 1
from po-
sition "LIM"
to position 0
.
)
By the engine stopping.
The speed previously chosen is still
memorised.
Operating fault
If there is a speed limiter malfunc-
tion, a message will display accom-
panied by an audible signal and
lighting of the service warning lamp.
Have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop. If during the operation of the speed
limiter, the system is unable to keep
within the maximum speed (for ex-
ample on a steep descent or under
heavy acceleration) then the speed
fl ashes. Adapt your speed as neces-
sary.
The function will re-engage when
your speed returns below the de-
sired maximum speed.
On a steep downhill gradi-
ent or on sharp accelera-
tion, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed
speed.
Use of fl oor mats that are not ap-
proved by CITROËN may hinder
access to the accelerator pedal
and thus interfere with the function-
ing of the speed limiter.
To avoid any risk of interfering with
the pedals:
- check that the fl oor mat is cor-
rectly positioned,
- never use more than one fl oor
mat.

LANE DEPARTURE
WARNING SYSTEM
System which detects the involun-
tary crossing of longitudinal traffi c
lane markings on the ground (solid
or broken line).
Sensors, fi tted below the front bum-
per, trigger a warning if the vehicle
drifts over a lane marking (speed
higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
This system is particularly useful on
motorways and main roads.
Activation
)
Press this button, the indicator
lamp comes on.
Deactivation
)
Press this button again, the indi-
cator lamp goes off.
The status of the system remains
in the memory when the ignition is
switched off.
Detection
You are warned by the vibration of
the driver's seat cushion:
- on the right-hand side, if the
marking on the ground has been
crossed on the right,
- on the left-hand side, if the marking
on the ground has been crossed
on the left.
No warning is transmitted while the
direction indicator is active and for
approximately 20 seconds after the
direction indicator is switched off.
A warning may be transmitted if a
direction marking (e.g. arrow) or
non-standard marking (e.g. graffi ti)
is crossed.
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction, the
service warning lamp comes on, ac-
companied by an audible signal and
a message in the screen.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
The lane departure warning sys-
tem cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the
driver.
The detection may be impeded:
- if the sensors are dirty (mud,
snow...),
- if the markings on the ground
are worn,
- if there is little contrast between
the markings on the ground and
the road surface.

DRIVING
Front parking sensors
In addition to the rear parking sen-
sors, the front parking sensors are
triggered when an obstacle is detect-
ed in front and the speed of the ve-
hicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are inter-
rupted if the vehicle stops for more
than three seconds in forward gear,
if no further obstacles are detected
or when the speed of the vehicle ex-
ceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker
(front or rear) indicates whether the
obstacle is in front or behind.
Deactivation/Activation of the
front and rear parking sensors
The function is deactivated by press-
ing this button. The indicator lamp in
the button comes on.
Pressing this button again reacti-
vates the function. The indicator
lamp in the button goes off.
The function will be deactivated au-
tomatically if a trailer is being towed
or a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehicle
fi tted with a towbar or bicycle car-
rier recommended by CITROËN).
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction
of the system, when reverse
gear is engaged this warn-
ing lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the screen, accompanied
by an audible signal (short beep).
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered
with mud, ice or snow. When re-
verse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that
the sensors may be dirty.
When the vehicle is moving at a
speed below 6 mph (10 km/h), cer-
tain sound sources (motorcycle,
lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trig-
ger the audible signals of the park-
ing sensor system.

PNEUMATIC SUSPENSION
Grand
C4 Picasso
C4 Picasso
The pneumatic rear suspension en-
hances driving comfort by maintain-
ing a constant body height whatever
the vehicle load.
Operation
- If there is an increase in vehicle
load, a sinking of the rear of
the vehicle is detected and the
pneumatic springs infl ate in or-
der to compensate for the extra
weight.
- If there is a decrease in load, a
rising of the rear of the vehicle is
detected and so the pneumatic
springs defl ate to return the ve-
hicle to its nominal height.
- If the vehicle has been unused
for a long period, the pneumatic
springs may infl ate if necessary
when you unlock or open a door,
so as to return the vehicle to its
nominal height.
If you do not reactivate the system
manually, automatic height correc-
tion will be activated as soon as the
vehicle starts to move. During height
correction, the service warning lamp
comes on and a message on the
screen reminds you not to exceed 6
mph (10 km/h).
The automatic correction does not
function if the doors or the boot are
open.
The automatic correction operates
even if your vehicle is in power
economy mode.

The automatic height correction can
be deactivated:
)
press button B
located on the
left hand boot interior trim for ap-
proximately two seconds,
)
release the button when you
hear a beep. Deactivation is con-
fi rmed by the lighting of the indi-
cator lamp in button B
.
In the event of a system fault,
alert messages, always in asso-
ciation with the service warning
lamp, will appear in the instru-
ment panel
. Contact a CITROËN
dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
You must deactivate the system in
the following circumstances:
- when working under the vehicle,

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Before disconnecting
)
Go to the battery.
)
Check that all of the openings -
doors, boot... - are closed but not
locked.
)
Wait at least four minutes after
switching off the ignition.
Charging
)
Disconnect the (+) terminal.
)
Follow the instructions on use
provided by the manufacturer of
the charger.
)
Connect the red cable of the
charger to the (+) post of the bat-
tery, then the black cable to the

)
Once charging is complete, dis-
connect the charger cables in re-
verse order.
The charging operation
must be carried out in a
well ventilated area and
well away from naked fl ames and
sources of sparks, so as to avoid
any risk of explosion and fi re.
Do not try to charge a frozen bat-
tery; the battery must fi rst be
thawed out to avoid any risk of ex-
plosion. If the battery has frozen,
before charging, have it checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop, who will ensure that
the internal components have not
been damaged and that the casing
is not cracked, which would intro-
duce the risk of a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.
Charging the battery using
a battery charger
If the battery of your vehicle is fl at
or prior to taking the vehicle out of
service for an extended period, you
can charge the battery using a bat-
tery charger.
For information on the specifi cation
of battery chargers compatible with
your battery, refer to a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
It is recommended that the battery
be disconnected if the vehicle is not
be used for more than a month.
Reinitialisation after
reconnection
After any reconnection of the bat-
tery, switch on the ignition and wait
at least one minute before starting,
to allow time for the initialisation of
the electronic systems.
By referring to the corresponding
sections, you should set or initialise
the following systems yourself:
- the date and time,
- the anti-pinch on the driver's
electric window and the sunroof.
- the panoramic sunroof blind,
- the multifunction screen set-
tings,
- the audio system or navigation
system settings,
Check that there no error message
or warning lamp comes on after
switching on the ignition.
However, if minor problems persist
after carrying out these operations,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration
of use of certain functions to conserve
a suffi cient 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 thirty minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once this period has elapsed, a
message appears on the multi-func-
tion screen indicating that the vehi-
cle has switched to economy mode
and the active functions are put on
standby.
If a telephone call is being made at
this time:
- it will be maintained for 10 minu-
tes with your Audio system or
MyWay hands-free system
- it will be maintained for 10 minu-
tes with the NaviDrive, then it will
transfer to your telephone de-
pending on its model.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated au-
tomatically next time the vehicle is
started.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let
it run for at least 5 minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the
engine from starting (refer
to the corresponding para-
graph).
This period may be reduced con-
siderably if the battery is not fully
charged.
