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

elease the clutch pedal,
-

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

he   START/STOP   button,
-
 
t
he   electric   parking   brake   is   applied   or  
be

ing
 a
pplied,
-
 
t
he   engine   is   needed   to   maintain   a  
c

omfortable   temperature   in   the   passenger  
c

ompartment,
-
 
d
emisting   is   selected,
-
 
s
ome   special   conditions   (battery   charge,  
e

ngine   temperature,   braking   assistance,  
a

mbient   temperature...)   where   the   engine   is  
n

eeded   to   assure   control   of   a   system.
In this case, this indicator lamp flashes
for  a   few   seconds   then   goes   off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Per fect
 
for
 
urban
 
use,
 
the
 
Stop

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

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with
parking.  It   detects   a   parking   space   then  
o

perates   the   steering   to   park   in   the   space.
It
  operates   the   steering   while   the   driver  
m

anages   the   accelerator,   brakes,   gears   and  
c

lutch   (manual   gearbox).   During   phases   of  
e

ntry   into   and   exit   from   a   parking   space,   the  
s

ystem provides visual and audible information
to
  the   driver   in   order   to   make   the   manoeuvres  
s

afe.   It   may   be   necessary   to   move   for wards  
a

nd   backwards   more   than   once. During
  a   manoeuvre   the   steering  
w

heel   turns   quickly:   do   not   hold   the  
s

teering   wheel,   do   not   place   your   hands  
b

etween   the   spokes   of   the   steering  
w

heel   and   take   care   with   loose   and  
b

ulky   clothing,   scarves,   handbags...  
T

here   is   a   risk   of   injury.
When
  Park   Assist   is   activated,   it  
p

revents   a   change   to   STOP   mode   of  
S

top   &   Start.   In   STOP   mode,   activation  
o

f   Park   Assist   restarts   the   engine.
The
  Park   Assist   system   cannot   in   any  
c

ircumstances replace the need for
vigilance
  on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The driver must remain in control
of
  their   vehicle   ensuring   that   the  
s

pace   remains   clear   throughout   the  
m

anoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors
may not detect small obstacles located
in
  their   blind   spots.
The
  driver   can   take   control   at   any   time   by  
g

ripping   the   steering   wheel. The
  Park   Assist   system   provides   assistance   for  t
he   following   manoeuvres:
A.

kingThe
  Park   Assist   system   takes   control  
o

f   the   power   steering   for   a   maximum  
o

f   4   manoeuvre   cycles.   The   function  
i

s   deactivated   after   these   4   cycles.  
I

f   you   think   that   your   vehicle   is   not  
p

ositioned correctly, you should then
take
  control   of   the   steering   to   carry   out  
t

he   manoeuvre.
The

Operating faults
In the event of a fault with the power
steering,   this   warning   lamp   flashes   in  
t

he instrument panel, accompanied
by
  a   message.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Switching off
If the lateral distance between your
vehicle   and   the   space   is   too   great,   the s

ystem may not be able to measure the
space.
Anything
  projecting   beyond   the   envelope
 o

f the vehicle (a ladder on the roof, for
example)
  is   not   taken   into   account   by   the
 P

ark   Assist   system   during   a   manoeuvre.
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered by road
dirt,
  ice   or   snow.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked
  by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q

ualified
 w
orkshop.
If
 
the
 
system
 
is
 
deactivated
 
during
 
a
 
ma

noeuvre, the drive should reactivate
it
 
to
 
repeat
 
the
 
measurement. In
 
the
 
event
 
of
 
a
 
fault,
 
this
 
warning
 
l

amp flashes for a few seconds,
