Front parking sensors

In addition to the rear parking sensors,
the front parking sensors are triggered
when an obstacle is detected in front
and the speed of the vehicle is still be-
low 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are inter-
rupted if the vehicle stops for more
than three seconds in forward gear,
if no further obstacles are detected
or when the speed of the vehicle ex-
ceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker
(front or rear) indicates whether the
obstacle is in front or behind.



Deactivation/Activation of the
front and rear parking sensors
The function is deactivated by press-
ing this button. The indicator lamp in
the button comes on.
Pressing this button again reacti-
vates the function. The indicator
lamp in the button goes off.



The function will be deactivated au-
tomatically if a trailer is being towed
or a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehicle
fi tted with a towbar or bicycle car-
rier recommended by CITROËN).



Operating fault

In the event of a malfunction
of the system, when reverse
gear is engaged this warn-
ing lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the screen, accompanied
by an audible signal (short beep).
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.


In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered
with mud, ice or snow. When re-
verse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the
sensors may be dirty.
When the vehicle is moving at a
speed below 6 mph (10 km/h), cer-
tain sound sources (motorcycle,
lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trig-
ger the audible signals of the parking
sensor system.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Towbar suitable for the attachment
of a trailer with additional lighting
and signalling.
Your vehicle is primarily designed
for transporting people and luggage,
but it may also be used for towing a
trailer.
We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage
of your vehicle, and that the fi t-
ting of the towbar is entrusted to
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a
CITROËN dealer, it is imperative
that it is fi tted in accordance with the
vehicle manufacturer's instructions.

Driving advice


Distribution of loads


)
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
maximum permitted without ex-
ceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude,
thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10 %
for every 1 000 metres of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section
for details of the weights and towed
loads which apply to your vehicle.

Side wind


)
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.


)
To lower the engine speed, re-
duce your speed.
The maximum towed load on a long
incline depends on the gradient and
the ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the
coolant temperature.


)
If the warning lamp and
the STOP
warning lamp
come on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.


Braking
Towing a trailer increases the brak-
ing distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes
on a long mountain type of descent,
the use of engine braking is recom-
mended.

Tyres


)
Check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended
pressures.


Lighting


)
Check the electrical lighting and
signalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a gen-
uine CITROËN towbar is used.
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
the driver must take particular care.

Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled,
its cooling capacity is not dependent
on the engine speed.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

*
To avoid any risk of jamming of
the pedals:


- ensure that the mat is posi-
tioned and secured correctly,

- never fi t one mat on top of an-
other.
