In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance 
guidelines below:
F
 
T
 o   obtain   an   even   air   distribution,   take   care   not   to   obstruct   the   exterior   air   intake   grilles  
l
ocated at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well 
as
  the   air   extractor   located   in   the   boot.
F
 
D
 o   not   cover   the   sunshine   sensor,   located   on   the   dashboard;   this   is   used   for   regulation  
o
f   the   air   conditioning   system.
F
 
O
 perate   the   air   conditioning   system   for   at   least   5   to   10   minutes,   once   or   twice   a   month  
t
o   keep   it   in   per fect   working   order.
F
 
E
 nsure   that   the   passenger   compartment   filter   is   in   good   condition   and   have   the   filter  
e
lements   replaced   regularly.
 W
e   recommend   the   use   of   a   combined   passenger   compartment   filter.   Thanks   to   its  
s
pecial active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the 
occupants
  and   the   cleanliness   of   the   passenger   compartment   (reduction   of   allergic  
s
ymptoms,   bad   odours   and   greasy   deposits).
F
 
T
 o   ensure   correct   operation   of   the   air   conditioning   system,   you   are   also   advised   to   have  
i
t   checked   regularly   as   recommended   in   the   maintenance   and   warranty   guide.
F
 
I
 f the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified
 w
orkshop.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine, the  i nterior  t emperature  i s  v ery  h igh,  f irst  
v
entilate   the   passenger   compartment   for  
a
  few   moments.
Put
  the   air   flow   control   at   a   setting   high  
e
nough   to   quickly   change   the   air   in   the  
p
assenger
 c
 ompartment.
The
  air   conditioning   system   does   not  
c
ontain chlorine and does not present 
any
  danger   to   the   ozone   layer.
The condensation created by the air 
conditioning
  results   in   a   discharge  
o
f water under the vehicle which is 
per fectly
  normal.
When
 
towing
 
the
 
maximum
 
load
 
on
 
a
 
steep
 
gradient
 
in
 
high
 
temperatures,
 
switching
 
off
 
the
 
a
ir
 
conditioning
 
increases
 
the
 
available
 
engine
 
power
 
and
 
so
 
improves
 
the
 
towing
 
ability.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning s ystems   only   work   when   the   engine   is  
r
unning.
To maintain a comfortable temperature 
in
  the   passenger   compartment,   you   can  
t
emporarily deactivate the Stop & Start 
system.
For more information on Stop & Star t , 
refer
  to   the   corresponding   section.

When towing
Distribution of loads
F Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to 
the
  axle   and   the   nose   weight   approaches   the
 m
aximum   permitted   without   exceeding   it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus 
reducing
  engine   per formance.   Above  
1 0
00 metres,   the   maximum   towed   load   must  
b
e reduced by 10   % for every 1   000 metres of 
altitude.
Side wind
F Take   into   account   the   increased   sensitivity  t
o   side   wind.
For more information on Weights
, refer 
to   the   corresponding   section.
The   rear   parking   sensors   will   be  
d
eactivated automatically to avoid the 
audible
  signal   if   a   genuine   CITROËN  
t
owbar   is   used.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature   of   the   coolant.
As
  the   fan   is   electrically   controlled,   its   cooling  
c
apacity   is   not   dependent   on   the   engine   speed.
F
 
T
 o   lower   the   engine   speed,   reduce   your  
s
peed.
The
  maximum   towed   load   on   a   long   incline  
d
epends   on   the   gradient   and   the   ambient  
t
emperature.
In
  all   cases,   keep   a   check   on   the   coolant  
t
emperature. F
 
I
 f   the   warning   lamp   and   the  
S
TOP
 
 warning   lamp   come   on,  
s
top the vehicle and switch off 
the
  engine   as   soon   as   possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o   avoid   overheating   of   the   brakes,   the   use   of  
e
ngine   braking   is   recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check  the   tyre   pressures   of   the   towing  v
ehicle   and   of   the   trailer,   observing   the  
re
commended
 p
 ressures.
Lighting
F Check  the   electrical   lighting   and   signalling  o
n the trailer and the headlamp beam 
height
  of   your   vehicle.
For more information on Adjusting the 
headlamp beam height , refer to the 
corresponding
 s
ection.

Blind spot monitoring system
Activation / Deactivation
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the   side   in   question:
-
 
i
 mmediately,   when   being   overtaken,
-
 
a
 fter a delay of about one second, when 
overtaking
  a   vehicle   slowly.
This
 
driving
 
assistance
 
system
 
warns
 
the
 
driver
 o
f the presence of another vehicle in the blind 
spot
 
angle
 
of
 
their
 
vehicle
 
(areas
 
masked
 
from
 
t
he
 
driver's
 
field
 
of
 
vision),
 
as
 
soon
 
as
 
this
 
p
resents
 
a
 
potential
 
danger. Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers 
monitor
  the   blind   spots.
This
 
system
 
is
 
designed
 
to
 
improve
 
safety
 
when   driving   and   is   in   no   circumstances   a  
s
ubstitute
 
for
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
the
 
interior

view
 
mirror   and   door   mirrors.   It   is   the   driver's  
r
esponsibility
 
to
 
constantly
 
check
 
the
 
traffic,
 
to   assess   the   distances   and   relative   speeds   of  
o
ther
 
vehicles
 
and
 
to
 
predict
 
their
 
movements   before   deciding   whether   to   change   lane.
The
 
blind

In the event of a fault, this warning lamp flashes for a few moments in 
the instrument panel, accompanied 
by
  a   message.
Operating fault
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified w orkshop. The system may suffer temporary 
interference in certain weather 
conditions
  (rain,   hail...).
In   particular,   driving   on   a   wet   sur face  o
r   moving   from   a   dry   area   to   a   wet   area  c
an   cause   false   alerts   (for   example,   the  
p
resence   of   a   fog   of   water   droplets   in  
t
he   blind   spot   angle   is   interpreted   as   a  
v
ehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that 
the sensors are not covered by mud, ice 
or
  snow.
Take
  care   not   to   cover   the   warning   zone  
i
n the door mirrors or the detection 
zones on the front and rear bumpers 
with
  adhesive   labels   or   other   objects;  
t
hey may hamper the correct operation 
of
  the   system.
High pressure jet wash
When
  washing   your   vehicle,   direct   the  
l
ance   at   least   30   cm   away   from   the  
sen
sors.In
  addition   to   the   fixed   warning   lamp   in   the   door  
m
irror on the side in question, a correction of 
trajectory   will   be   felt   if   you   cross   a   lane   marking  w
ith the direction indicators on, to help you 
avoid   a   collision.
Conditions for operation
The following systems must be activated:
-  b lind   spot   monitoring,
-
 
a
 ctive   lane   departure   warning.

This system indicates the proximity of an obstacle   (examples:   pedestrian,   vehicle,   tree,  
g
ate)   which   comes   within   the   field   of   detection  
o
f   sensors   located   in   the   bumper.
Certain
  types   of   obstacle   (examples:   stake,  
r
oadworks   cone)   detected   initially   will   no   longer  
b
e detected at the end of the manoeuvre, if 
they
  are   located   in   blind   spots   in   the   sensors'  
f
ield
 o
 f
 d
 etection.
Parking sensors
This system cannot in any 
circumstances replace the need for 
vigilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.The
  system   is   switched   on   by   engaging   reverse  
g
e a r.
This   is   confirmed   by   an   audible   signal.
The system is switched off when you come out 
of   reverse   gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an i
ntermittent   audible   signal,   the   frequency   of   which i
ncreases   as   the   vehicle   approaches   the   obstacle.
The
  sound   emitted   by   the   speaker   (right   or   left)
 i
ndicates   the   side   on   which   the   obstacle   is   located.
When the distance between the vehicle and 
the
  obstacle   becomes   less   than   approximately
 t
hirty   centimetres,   the   audible   signal   becomes
 c
ontinuous.
Rear parking sensors
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by d isplaying   bars   in   the   screen   or   the   instrument  
p
anel   which   move   progressively   nearer   to  
t
he   vehicle.   When   the   obstacle   is   near,   the  
"
Danger"   symbol   is   displayed.

Front parking sensors
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) indicates whether the obstacle 
is
  in   front   or   behind. The system will be deactivated 
automatically
  if   a   trailer   is   being  
t
owed or a bicycle carrier is fitted on 
a towbar (vehicle fitted with a towbar 
installed
  in   line   with   the   manufacturer's  
r
ecommendations).In bad weather or in winter, ensure 
that the sensors are not covered with 
mud,
  ice   or   snow.   When   reverse   gear   is  
e
ngaged,   an   audible   signal   (long   beep)  
i
ndicates   that   the   sensors   may   be   dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle, 
lorry,
  pneumatic   drill,   etc.)   may   trigger  
t
he   audible   signals   of   the   parking  
s
ensor   system.
As
 
an
 
addition   to   the   rear   parking   sensors,   the  
f
ront
 
parking   sensors   are   triggered   when   an  
o
bstacle is detected in front and the speed of 
the
 
vehicle   remains   below   6   mph   (10   km/h).
The
 
front   parking   sensors   are   interrupted   if  
t
he vehicle stops for more than three seconds 
in
 
for ward   gear,   if   no   further   obstacles   are  
d
etected or when the speed of the vehicle 
exceeds   6   mph   (10   km/h). The   parking   sensors   can   be   deactivated   in   the  
t
ouch   screen   tablet.
F  
I
 n the Driving
 menu, select the " Driving
