tor lever in position P .
Operate the starter.
When the engine is running,
place the selector lever on R , D
or M as required.
Check, in the instrument panel,
the position engaged.
Release the brake pedal and ac-
celerate.
If the selector lever is not in posi-
tion P , a message "Place automatic
gearbox in position P " is displayed
in the multifunction screen. It is ac-
companied by an audible signal and
fl a s h i n g o f P in the instrument panel.
Moving off
To avoid any difference between the
position of the selector lever and the
true position of the gearbox, always
come out of position
P with the igni-
tion on and your foot on the brake.
When this warning lamp
comes on in the instru-
ment panel, press the
brake pedal to disen-
gage the selector lever
from position P .
Park
To select position P, move the
selector lever back to the highest
position (towards R ) , t h e n p u s h i t
forwards and then to the left.
To exit position P , move the se-
lector lever to the right and then
to the position you want.
Only engage this position when
the vehicle is completely sta-
tionary. In this position, the front
wheels are locked. Make sure
that the selector lever is correctly
positioned. Reverse gear
Neutral
Only engage this position
when the vehicle is station-
ary. To prevent snatching,
do not accelerate too soon
after selection.
Never select position
N if
the vehicle is moving.
Never select positions P or
R unless the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
If, while the vehicle is moving, po-
sition N is engaged inadvertently,
allow the engine to idle before en-
gaging position D or M .
This position of the selector
lever is used to prevent the
vehicle from moving when
you are stationary.

Automatic operation
Move the selector lever
to position D . The gearbox is then operating in
auto-adaptive mode, without requir-
ing any intervention on your part.
For certain manoeuvres (for exam-
p l e o v e r t a k i n g ) , y o u c a n o b t a i n m a x -
imum acceleration by pressing the
accelerator pedal down hard, which
then produces an automatic change
down to a lower gear.
When braking, the gearbox may
change down automatically in order
to provide effective engine braking.
If you lift your foot off the accelerator
abruptly, the gearbox will not change up.
Temporary manual operation
when in automatic mode
The gearbox constantly selects the
gear that is best suited to the follow-
ing conditions:
- driving style,
- r o a d p r o fi l e ,
- vehicle load. At any time, operating the "
+ " or " - "
paddle allows you to exercise tem-
porary control over the gearbox. The
request to change gear will be taken
into account. You will still be in auto-
matic mode. The indicator D remains
on in the instrument panel.
This function enables you to antici-
pate certain situations such as the
approach of a bend or the need to
overtake another vehicle.

- A request to change gear is ac- cepted only if the engine speed
permits it. - For safety reasons, depending
on the engine speed, a change
up or down may be performed
automatically.
- It is possible at any time to move from position D (driving in auto-
m a t i c m o d e ) t o p o s i t i o n M (driv-
i n g i n s e q u e n t i a l m o d e ) o r v i c e

SPEED LIMITER
System which prevents the vehi-
cle from exceeding the speed pro-
grammed by the driver.
Once the limit speed has been
reached, the accelerator pedal no
longer has any effect.
The speed limiter is switched on
manually: a speed of at least 20 mph
( a p p r o x i m a t e l y 3 0 k m / h ) m u s t b e p r o -
grammed.
The speed limiter controls are located
on the left-hand side of the steering
wheel. The programmed information is
g r o u p e d t o g e t h e r i n z o n e
A of the
instrument panel screen.

speed, by means of short or long
presses on:
button 4 to increase the memo-
rised maximum speed,
button 2 to decrease the memo-
rised maximum speed.
Successive presses will modify the
maximum speed in steps of 1 mph
( 1 k m / h ) a n d a s u s t a i n e d p r e s s i n
s t e p s o f 3 m p h ( 5 k m / h ) .
Activation
When the desired maximum speed
is displayed, press button 3 so that
the limitation is activated.
On selection of the
function, the previous
memorised speed and
the information "OFF"
are displayed on the
instrument panel. The information
"OFF"
then disappears from
the instrument panel
screen.
While the function is active, press-
ing the accelerator pedal will not en-
able the programmed speed to be
exceeded, except if you press the
pedal hard down to beyond the end-
of-travel switch.
The speed of your vehicle may vary
slightly in relation to that memo-
rised.
The speed limiter cannot, in any circum-
stances, take the place of the obser-
vance of speed limits or of the vigilance
and responsibility of the driver.

Deactivation
Press on button 3 .
This action causes the
information "OFF" to
appear on the instru-
ment panel screen.
This action does not cancel the
memorised maximum speed which
r e m a i n s d i s p l a y e d i n z o n e A of the
instrument panel.
Override of the programmed
speed
The accelerator pedal is equipped
with an end-of-travel switch. If you
action this switch by pressing the
pedal hard down, you can exceed
the memorised maximum speed at
any time.
During the time the speed is be-
ing exceeded, the displayed speed
fl a s h e s .
You have only to release the ac-
celerator pedal to return below the
maximum speed and render the
function active again. Return to normal driving
By moving the control 1 from po-
sition "LIM" to position 0 .
By the engine stopping.
The speed previously chosen is still
memorised. Operating fault
If there is a speed limiter malfunc-
tion, a message will display accom-
panied by an audible signal and
lighting of the service warning lamp.
Have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer.
If during the operation of the speed
limiter, the system is unable to keep
within the maximum speed (for exam-
ple on a steep descent or under heavy
a c c e l e r a t i o n ) t h e n t h e s p e e d fl a s h e s .
Adapt your speed as necessary.
The function will re-engage when
your speed returns below the de-
sired maximum speed.
On a steep downhill gradi-
ent or on sharp accelera-
tion, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed
speed.
U s e o f fl o o r m a t s t h a t a r e n o t a p -
proved by CITROËN may hinder
access to the accelerator pedal
and thus interfere with the function-
ing of the speed limiter.
To avoid any risk of interfering with
the pedals:
- c h e c k t h a t t h e fl o o r m a t i s c o r - rectly positioned,
- n e v e r u s e m o r e t h a n o n e fl o o r mat.

If the memorised cruise speed is higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate to
reach the former.
By selection of the current
speed
Press on button 2 or 4 once the
desired speed has been reached.
The information "OFF" will then
disappear from the instrument
panel display.
Overriding the programmed
speed
During the operation of cruise con-
trol, it is always possible to use the
accelerator to go faster than the
cruise speed (for example to over-
t a k e a n o t h e r v e h i c l e ) . T h e s p e e d
d i s p l a y e d i n z o n e A fl a s h e s .
