You can vary the air distribution in the
passenger compartment using the three
buttons 7.
Windscreen and side windows.
Central and side air vents.

Each press on a
button activates or deactivates
the function. The indicator lamp is on when the
button is activated. For a
uniform distribution
of air in the passenger compartment, the three
buttons can be activated simultaneously.
Maximum air conditioning
The system automatically adjusts the
temperature setting to the lowest possible, the
air distribution towards the centre and outer
vents, the air flow to maximum.

few
moments. Then return to the intake of
exterior air.
Switching off the air conditioning may result
in some discomfort (humidity, misting).
System switch-off

automatic mode of the air conditioning
system.
When the indicator lamp in the button is on, the
air conditioning system operates automatically:
the system manages the temperature, air
flow and air distribution in the passenger
compartment in an optimum way according to
the comfort level you have selected.
It is possible to adjust the intensity of the
automatic comfort programme by choosing one
of the settings offered in the secondary page,
accessible from button 11 "OPTIONS ".
To change the current setting, shown by
illumination of the corresponding indicator
lamp, press button 13


repeatedly until the
desired mode is displayed:
" Soft ": provides soft and quiet operation by
limiting air flow.

"Normal ": offers the best compromise between
a comfortable temperature and quiet operation
(default setting).
" Fast ": provides strong and effective air flow.
Use the " Normal" or "Fast" modes to ensure
the comfort of passengers in the rear seats.
This setting is associated with automatic mode
only. However, on deactivation of AUTO mode,
the indicator lamp for the last setting remains
on.
Changing the setting does not reactivate AUTO
mode if this was deactivated.
In cold weather with the engine cold, the
air flow is increased gradually until the
comfort setting has been reached, in order
to limit the delivery of cold air into the
passenger compartment.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than the comfort setting requested, there
is no need to alter the value displayed
to more quickly reach the required level
of comfort. The system automatically
corrects the temperature difference as
quickly as possible.Automatic visibility

"Air Quality System " (AQS)
function
Using a pollution sensor, this function
a utomatically activates recirculation of the
interior air once a
certain level of polluting
substances in the exterior air is detected.
When the air quality returns to a
satisfactory
level, recirculation of interior air is automatically
deactivated.
This function is not designed to detect
unpleasant odours.
Recirculation is automatically activated when
the front screenwash is used or when reverse
gear is engaged.
The function does not operate if the exterior
temperature is below 5°C, to avoid the risk of
misting of the windscreen and side windows.
To activate or deactivate the function, go
to the secondary page by using button 11
" OPTIONS ", then press button 15 .
Manual control
You can manually adjust one or more of these
functions, while retaining automatic control of

Recirculation of interior air
The intake of exterior air prevents the formation
of mist on the windscreen and side windows.
Recirculation of the interior air isolates the
passenger compartment from outside odours
and fumes and allows the temperature required
in the passenger compartment to be reached
more rapidly.

Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contribute towards improved control in
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The EBFD manages the braking pressure
wheel by wheel.

Safety

135
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway
Code, must remain in control of the
vehicle in all circumstances and must be
able to retake control of it at all times. The
driver must adapt the speed to climactic
conditions, traffic and the state of the
road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
check the traffic, to assess the relative
distances and speeds of other vehicles
and to anticipate their movements before
indicating and changing lane.
The systems cannot exceed the limits of
the laws of physics.
Switching off
F Press and hold this button to switch the camera off.
The indicator lamp in the button
goes off.
If you switch the camera off manually, it will
remain off even after the vehicle is restarted
and will have to be switched on manually.

application, you can then automatically and
immediately share your photos and videos on
social networks or by email.
An audible signal confirms that the request has
been acknowledged.
Resetting the system
For safety reasons, the driver must not
use the CITROËN ConnectedCAM®
application from a
smartphone while
driving. He or she must per form any action
requiring sustained attention when the
vehicle is stationary.

recommendations
Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel with
both hands, always use the interior and
exterior rear view mirrors, always keep
your feet close to the pedals and take
a
break every two hours.

Cruise control – particular
recommendations
For the safety of everyone, only use the
cruise control where the driving conditions
allow running at a constant speed and
keeping an adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant when the cruise control
is activated. If you hold one of the speed
setting modification buttons, a very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle may
o c c u r.
When descending a


steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the set speed. Brake if
necessary to control the speed of your
vehicle.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set
speed may not be reached or maintained. Exceeding the programmed speed
setting
The speed setting can be exceeded
temporarily
by pressing the accelerator
pedal (the programmed speed flashes).
To return to the speed setting, release
the accelerator pedal (when this speed is
reached again, the display of the speed
stops flashing).
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following
situations:
-

i
n an urban area with the risk of
pedestrians crossing the road,
-

i
n heavy traffic (except versions with
the Stop & Go function),
-

o
n winding or steep roads,
-

o
n slippery or flooded roads,
-

i
n unfavourable climatic conditions,
-

d
riving on a speed circuit,
-

d
riving on a rolling road,
-

u
se of snow chains, non-slip covers or
studded tyres.
Programmable cruise
control
Refer to the General recommendations
on the use of driving and manoeuvring
aids and to Cruise control – par ticular
recommendations .
This system automatically keeps
the vehicle's speed at the cruise
value programmed by the driver
(speed setting), without using the
accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on manually.
It requires a
minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40


km/h).
With a
manual gearbox, it requires the
engagement of third gear or higher.
With an automatic gearbox, it requires the
engagement of mode D or of second gear or
higher in mode M .
The cruise control remains active after
changing gear regardless of the gearbox
type on engines fitted with Stop & Start.

Some vehicles present on the road may
not be properly seen or may be poorly
interpreted by the camera and/or radar
(e.g. a lorry), which may lead to a poor
assessment of the distances and lead to
the vehicle inappropriately accelerating or
braking.
