Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...). The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Operation
Going into engine STOP
mode
This indicator lamp comes on in the instrument
panel and the engine goes into standby
au
tomatically:
-
w
ith a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12
mph (20 km/h), or vehicle stationary
(
with PureTech 130, THP 165 and
B
lueHDi 100, 115 and 120 versions), when
you
place the gear lever in neutral, and you
r

-
w
ith an automatic gearbox , with the
vehicle stationary, when you press the
brake
pedal or place the gear selector lever
i
n position N . Never
refuel with the engine in STOP
m
ode; you must switch off the ignition
w
ith the START/STOP button.
For
your comfort, during parking
m
anoeuvres, STOP mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming
out of reverse gear.
The Stop & Start system does not affect
the functionality of the vehicle, such as
for
example, braking, power steering...
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- t he driver's door is open,
-
t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-
t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10
km/h) since the last engine start using
t

Start
system
reduces
fuel
consumption
and
exhaust
emissions
as
well
as the noise level when stationary.
If your vehicle is fitted with the system, a time
counter calculates the sum of the periods in
STOP
mode
during
a
journey.
It
resets
itself
to

Dynamic cruise control with Stop function
The dynamic cruise control is a driving aid that cannot in any circumstances
replace the observation of speed limits
and safe distances, nor the need for
vigilance
on the part of the driver.
It
i
s
r
ecommended that
y
ou always
k
eep
y
our feet close to the pedals.
The
driver must be ready to take back
c
ontrol of their vehicle at any time,
using
the brake or accelerator pedal as
a
ppropriate.
This
system
assures
two
functions:
-
a
utomatic
regulation
of
the
speed
of
the
v
ehicle
to
a
value
programmed
by
the
d
river,
-
a
utomatic
adjustment
of
the
distance
b
etween your vehicle and the vehicle
ahead.
It
manages
the
acceleration
and
deceleration
o
f
the
vehicle
by
automatically
acting
on
the
e
ngine
and
the
braking
system.
To do this, the system has a radar, located in
the
middle
of
the
front
bumper,
with
a
maximum
r
ange
of
150
metres.
Principles
This system detects a vehicle running in front of y our vehicle, travelling in the same direction.
It automatically adapts the speed of your
vehicle to that of the vehicle in front, to maintain
a
constant distance.
If
the vehicle in front is running more slowly, the
s
ystem slows, or even stops your vehicle, using
e
ngine braking and the braking system.
If
the braking system is used to decelerate the
v
ehicle, the brake lamps come on.
If
the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
l
ane, the cruise control progressively
a
ccelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed
s
peed.
If the driver operates a direction indicator to
overtake
a slower vehicle, the dynamic cruise
c
ontrol allows your vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle in front to assist the
overtaking
ma
noeuvre,
t
hough
n
ever
e
xceeding
t
he programmed speed.

Operating fault
As a safety measure, do not use the system if
the brake lamps are faulty.
Do not use the system if the front bumper is
damaged. In the event of a fault with the cruise
control, you are alerted by the
illumination
of this warning lamp
a
nd the display of a message in the
in
strument panel, accompanied by an
audible
s
ignal.
The cruise control operates by day and at
night,
in
fog
or
moderate
rainfall.
However,
it
is
strongly
recommended
that
y
ou
always
keep
a
safe
distance
from
v
ehicles
ahead,
according
to
the
driving
c
onditions, the weather and the road
sur face.
Use the cruise control only where the
driving
conditions
allow
running
at
a
c
onstant speed and at an adequate safe
distance.
Do not use the cruise control in urban
areas,
heavy
traffic,
on
winding
or
steep
r
oads
or
on
slippery
or
flooded
sur faces.
In certain circumstances, it may not
be
possible
for
the
speed
setting
to
be
m
aintained
or
even
attained:
loaded
v
ehicle,
ascending
a
steep
hill,
... The
system
is
not
intended
for
driving
in
the
fo
llowing
s
ituations:
-
t
he front end of the vehicle has been
modified
(addition
of
driving
lamps),
-
d
riving
on
a
racing
circuit,
-
r
unning
on
a
rolling
road,
-
u
se
of
snow
chains
or
non-slip
covers.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
d
ealer or a qualified workshop.
The operation of the radar, located in
the front bumper, may be disturbed by
accumulations
of
grime
(dust,
mud...)
or
in
c
ertain
weather
conditions
(snow,
ice...).
The
message
"SYSTEM
INACTIVE:
V
isibility
reduced"
is
displayed
to
signal
that
t
he
system
has
been
put
into
standby.
Clean
the
front
bumper
regularly.
The use of mats not approved by CITROËN
may inter fere with the operation of the
cruise
control.
To
avoid
any
risk
of
jamming
the
pedals:
-
e
nsure that mats are secured correctly,
-
n
ever
fit
one
mat
on
top
of
another.

Assisted lane departure warning system
Using a camera placed at the top of the windscreen to identify lane markings on the ground, this systems corrects the trajectory of the vehicle while alerting the driver if it detects a risk of involuntary crossing of a line.
This
system is particularly useful on motor ways and main roads.
The
assisted lane departure warning
s
ystem cannot, in any circumstances,
replace
t
he
n
eed
fo
r
v
igilance
o
n
t
he
par
t
o
f the driver.
The driver remains responsible for the
vehicle
in all circumstances. The system
h
elps the driver only when there is a risk
o
f the vehicle involuntarily wandering
f
rom the lane it is being driven on.
I
t does not manage the safe driving
d
istance, the speed of the vehicle or the
brakes.
The
driver must hold the steering wheel
i
n a way that allows control to be taken
b
ack in circumstances where the system
i
s not able to intervene (where there are
no
lane markings, for example).
It
is necessary to observe the driving
r
egulations and take a break every
t
wo hours.
Operation
Conditions for operation
The speed of the vehicle must be between 40
and
112 mph (65 and 180 km/h).
The
carriageway must have at least one lane
m
arking (solid or broken) on the ground.
The driver must hold the wheel with both
hands.
The
change of trajectory is not accompanied by
o
peration of the direction indicators.
The
ESC system must be activated. Once
the system identifies a risk of the vehicle i
nvoluntarily crossing one of the lane markings
d
etected, it makes the correction to the
t
rajectory necessary to return the vehicle to its
in
itial
pa
th.
The
driver will then notice a turning movement
o
f the steering wheel.
This
warning lamp flashes during
t
rajectory
c
orrection.
If the driver wishes to maintain the
trajectory
of the vehicle, they can
p
revent the correction by keeping a firm
g
rip on the wheel (during an avoiding
m
anoeuvre, for example).
The correction is interrupted if the
direction
indicators are operated.
