These levels of alert are based on the inter-
vehicle time between your vehicle and the
vehicle in front.
They take account of the vehicle dynamics,
the speed of your vehicle and the one in front,
the environmental conditions, the operation of
the vehicle (cornering, pedals pressed, etc.) to
trigger the alert at the best moment.Level 1 (orange) : visual alert only,
signalling to you that the vehicle in
front is very close.
The message " Vehicle close" is
displayed.
Level 2 (red) : visual and audible
alert, warning you that a
collision is
imminent.
The message " Brake!" is displayed.
Where the speed of your vehicle is too fast
approaching another vehicle, the first level
of alert may not be displayed: the level
2
alert may be displayed directly.
Important: alert level 1
is never displayed
when the " Close" trigger threshold has
been selected.Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid
a collision, this system will supplement the
braking, within the limits of the laws of physics.
This assistance will only be provided if you
press the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake
This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, inter venes following the alert if the
driver does not react quickly enough and does
not operate the vehicle's brakes. It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid
a
frontal collision by your vehicle where the
driver fails to react.
Operation
The system operates under the following
conditions:
-

T
he vehicle's speed does not exceed
37
mph (60 km/h) when a pedestrian is
detected.
-

T
he vehicle's speed does not exceed
50
mph (80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle
is detected.
-

T
he vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and
53
mph (10 km/h and 85 km/h) (versions
with camera alone) or 87
mph (140 km/h)
(versions with camera and radar) when
a
moving vehicle is detected.If the camera and/or radar have
confirmed the presence of a
vehicle
or a
pedestrian, this warning lamp
flashes once the function is acting
on the vehicle's brakes.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a
complete stop, keep the brake
pedal pressed down to prevent the vehicle from
starting off again.
With a
manual gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a
complete stop, the engine may stall.
Driving

During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel per forms rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel, do not put your hands
between the spokes of the steering wheel.
Watch out for any object that could block
the manoeuvre (loose clothing, scar ves,
ties, etc.) - injury risk!
When the Park Assist is active, it prevents
the Stop & Start going into STOP mode.
In STOP mode, activating Park Assist
restarts the engine.
The Park Assist system takes control
of the assistance for a maximum of
4
manoeuvre cycles. The function is
deactivated after these 4
cycles. If you
think that your vehicle is not positioned
correctly, you should then take control of
the steering to carry out the manoeuvre. The sequence of manoeuvres and the
driving instructions are displayed in the
instrument panel.
You should always check the surroundings
of your vehicle before starting
a


manoeuvre.The parking sensors function is
not available during parking space
measurement. It intervenes later when
manoeuvring to warn you that your vehicle
is approaching an obstacle: the audible
signal becomes continuous when the
obstacle is less than thirty centimetres
away.
If you have deactivated the parking
sensors, they are automatically
reactivated during assisted parking
manoeuvres.
Activation of Park Assist deactivates the
Blind Spot Detection.

Fuel
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 57 litres
(petrol) or 55 litres (Diesel).
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp in the instrument
panel comes on, accompanied by
an audible warning, a message and
the last bar of the fuel gauge lights
up orange.
When it first comes on there remains
approximately 6


litres of fuel in the tank.
Until sufficient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the ignition
is switched on, accompanied by an audible
warning and a
message. This audible warning
and this message are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops towards " 0".
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running
out.
Refilling
A self-adhesive label on the inner face of the
filler flap reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5
litres, in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge. To refuel in complete safety:
F

Y
ou must switch off the engine.
F
W
ith the vehicle unlocked, press the rear
edge of the flap to open it (the filler cap is
a part of it).
F T ake care to select the pump that delivers
the correct type of fuel for your vehicle.
F

I
nsert the nozzle so as to push in the metal
non-return flap.
F

M
ake sure that the nozzle is pushed in as
far as possible before starting to refuel (risk
of blowback). If you are filling your tank to the top, do not
continue after the 3
rd cut- off of the nozzle;
this could cause malfunctions.
Your vehicle is fitted with a
catalytic converter,
a device which helps to reduce the level of
harmful emissions in the exhaust gases.
For petrol engines, you must use unleaded
fuel.
The filler neck is narrower, allowing only
unleaded petrol nozzles to be introduced.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
your vehicle, you must have the fuel
tank drained and filled with the correct
fuel before star ting the engine.
Fuel cut- of f
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that
c uts off the supply of fuel in the event of an
impact.
Opening the filler flap may create a

noise
caused by an inrush of air. This is entirely
normal and results from the sealing of the fuel
system. F
H
old it in this position throughout the filling
operation.
F
P
ush the filler flap to close it.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
engine in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the "START/STOP"
button.

Checks
Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule and according
to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
12 V battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check regularly that the
terminals are correctly tightened
(versions without quick release terminals)
and that the connections are clean.
For more information and the precautions
to take before starting work on the 12 V
battery , refer to the corresponding
section.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a
12 V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Air filter
Depending on the environment
(e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the
use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving),
replace it twice as often if
necessary .
Passenger compartment
filter
Depending on the environment
(e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the
use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving),
replace it twice as often if
necessary.
A clogged passenger compartment
filter may have an adverse effect on
the per formance of the air conditioning
system and generate undesirable odours.
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filter is signalled by the temporary
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a message warning
of the risk of the filter clogging up.
Traffic conditions permitting, regenerate
the filter by driving at a
speed of at least
37

mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp
goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates
a

low Diesel additive level.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
On a

new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell, which
is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does not
affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the
environment.
