Driving
On sharp acceleration, as when descending a steep hill, the speedlimiter will not be able to prevent thevehicle from exceeding the programmedspeed.
The limiter is temporarily deactivated and the displayed programmed speed flashes. An audible signal accompanies the flashing of the programmed speed when exceeding the speed is not due to an action by the driver.
The use of mats not approved by CITROËN may interfere with theoperation of the speed limiter.
To a v o i d a ny risk of jamming of the pedals:


- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,

- do not fit one mat on top of another.

This system provides a view in the instrument panel of the near surroundings of your vehicle,
using cameras mounted at the front and rear of
your vehicle and under the door mirrors.
Dependin
g on the angle of view chosen (front
view, rear view or 360° panoramic view),360 Vision provides special visual assistance
in particular driving conditions such as when entering a blind crossing or monoeuvring in
areas of reduced visibility.Once activated, this function operates up to9 mph (15 km/h). Above 18 mph (30 km/h), thefunction is deactivated automatically.
This system is a visual aid which in nocircumstances can replace the vigilance and responsibility of the driver. The images provided by the cameras may be deformed by the relief. Thepresence of areas in shade, in sunny conditions, or of low ambient light maydarken the image and reduce contrast.

instrument panel.

Rear vision

The camera located in the tailgate is activated
and the view of the area behind your vehicle is
displayed in the instrument panel and behaveslike a reversing camera, whatever the position
of the gear selector lever.
The blue lines represent the width of your
vehicle (excluding mirrors): they move
according to the position of the steering wheel.
The red line represents a distance of 30 cm
from the rear bumper, and the two
green
lines, 1 m and 2 m from the rear bumper,
respectively.

Rear vision is displayed automaticallywhen engaging reverse, regardless of the state of the system.

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking, detecting a parking space then controlling the steering to park in the space. It controls the steering while the driver manages the accelerator, brakes, gears andclutch (manual gearbox). During phases of entry into and exit from a parking space, the system provides visual and audible information
to the driver in order to make the manoeuvres safe. It may be necessary to move for wards and backwards more than once.
During a manoeuvre the steering wheelturns quickly: do not hold the steeringwheel, do not place your hand between
the spokes of the steering wheel and take care with loose and bulky clothing, scarves, handbags... There is a risk of injury.


When Park Assist is activated, itprevents a change to STOP mode of Stop & Start. In STOP mode, activation of Park Assist restarts the engine.


The Park Assist system cannot in anycircumstances replace the care and responsibility of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their vehicle ensuring that thespace remains clear throughout themanoeuvre. In some circumstances, the sensors may not detect small obstacles located in their blind spots.
The driver can take control at any time bygripping the steering wheel.
The Park Assist s
ystem provides assistance for
the following manoeuvres:


- entr
y into a parallel parking space

- exitin
g from a parallel parking space

- ba
y parking

The Park Assist system takes control of the power steering for a maximumof 4 manoeuvre cycles. The functionis deactivated after these 4 cycles.If you think that your vehicle is notpositioned correctly, you should then take control of the steering to carry outthe manoeuvre.

The Park Assist system cannot workwith the engine off.
