left-hand side of the steering wheel.
Displays in the instrument panel
The speed limiter information is displayed in
zone A of the instrument panel.
System which prevents the vehicle from
exceeding the speed programmed by the
driver.
When the limit speed is reached, the
accelerator pedal no longer has any effect.
The speed limiter is switched on manually: a
speed of at least 20 mph (approx. 30 km/h)
must be programmed.
The speed limiter can in no circumstances
replace keeping to speed limits or the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.

The accelerator pedal has an end-of-travel
switch. In order to exceed the memorised
maximum speed at any time, you can press
the pedal all the way down. While the speed

Operating fault
If there is a fault, a message is displayed
accompanied by an audible signal and
illumination of the SERVICE warning lamp.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Overriding the programmed
speed
In the event of a steep descent or
under excessive acceleration, the
speed limiter (which does not act
on the brakes) may not be able to
prevent the vehicle from exceeding the
programmed speed.
Use of a floor mat other than that
recommended by CITROËN may affect
the normal operation of the accelerator
pedal and hamper the operation of the
speed limiter.
Floor mats approved by CITROËN
are fitted with a 3rd fixing located in
the pedal area to avoid any risk of
inter ference with the pedals.
The speed will also flash if the speed limiter is
not able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding
the programmed speed (e.g. on a steep
descent or under excessive acceleration).
To reactivate the speed limiter, release the
accelerator to slow to a speed lower than the
programmed speed.

Lane departure warning system
This system is particularly useful on motor ways
and main roads.
Activation
F Press this button, the indicator lamp comes on.
Deactivation
F Press this button again, the indicator lamp goes off.
The status of the system remains in the
memory when the ignition is switched off.
Detection
You are warned by the vibration of the driver's
seat cushion:
-

o
n the right-hand side, if the marking on
the ground has been crossed on the right,
-

o
n the left-hand side, if the marking on the
ground has been crossed on the left.
No warning is transmitted while the direction
indicator is active and for approximately
20 seconds after the direction indicator is
switched off.
A warning may be transmitted if a direction
marking (e.g. arrow) or non-standard marking
(e.g. graffiti) is crossed.
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction, the service
warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the screen.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
System which detects the involuntary crossing
of longitudinal traffic lane markings on the
ground (solid or broken line).
Sensors, fitted below the front bumper, trigger
a warning if the vehicle drifts over a lane
marking (speed higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
The detection may be impeded:- if the sensors are dirty (mud, snow...),- if the markings on the ground are worn,
- if there is little contrast between the
markings on the ground and the road
sur face.
The lane departure warning system
cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
It is necessary to observe driving
regulations and take a break every two
hours.

Parking space sensor
System which measures the parking space
available between two vehicles or obstacles. It
measures the size of the space and gives you
information on:
-
t
he possibility of fitting into a free space,
depending on the dimensions of your
vehicle and the distances necessary for
your manoeuvring,
-

t
he level of difficulty of the manoeuvre to
be performed.
The system does not measure spaces which
are clearly much smaller or larger than the size
of the vehicle. The parking space sensor function warning
lamp can have three different states:
-

o
ff: the function is not selected,
-

o
n fixed: the function is selected but the
conditions for measuring are not yet met
(direction indicator not operating, speed too
high) or the measurement is terminated.
-

f
lashing: measurement is in progress or
the message is being displayed. You can select the "parking space sensor"
function by pressing button A
. The fixed
illumination of the warning lamp indicates that
the function is selected.
During the measurement, the message
"Measurement in progress - Vmax 20 km/h
(12 mph)" is displayed in the instrument panel
screen.Displays in the instrument panel

uring measurement, go for ward the
length of the space, at a speed less than
12 mph (approx. 20 km/h), to prepare for
your manoeuvre.
The system then measures the size of the space.
F

he system informs you of the level
of difficulty of the manoeuvre via a
message in the instrument panel screen
accompanied by an audible signal.
F

D
epending on the message issued by the
system, you may or may not be able to
per form the manoeuvre.The function displays the following types of message:
Parking YES
Parking DIFFICULT
Parking NO The function deselects itself automatically:
-

w
hen you engage reverse gear,
-
w
hen you switch off the ignition,
-
i
f measurement is not requested,
-
w
ithin five minutes of selection of the
function,
-
i
f the vehicle speed exceeds the threshold
of 45 mph (approx. 70 km/h) for one
minute.
If the lateral distance between your vehicle and
the parking space is too large, the system may
not be able to measure the space.
The function remains available after each
measurement and thus can measure more than
one space during your search.
In bad weather conditions or in winter, make
sure that the sensors are not covered by dirt, or
by ice or snow.
The parking space sensor function deactivates
the front parking sensors during space
measurement when you are in for ward gear.
If there is a fault, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
