DRIVING
LANE DEPARTURE
WARNING SYSTEM
System which detects the involun-
tary crossing of longitudinal traffi c
lane markings on the ground (solid
or broken line).
Sensors, fi tted below the front
bumper, trigger a warning if the vehi-
cle drifts over a lane marking (speed
higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
This system is particularly useful on
motorways and main roads.
Activation
)
Press this button, the indicator
lamp comes on.
Deactivation
)
Press this button again, the indi-
cator 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:
- on the right-hand side, if the
marking on the ground has been
crossed on the right,
- on the left-hand side, if the mark-
ing 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 direc-
tion marking (e.g. arrow) or non-standard
marking (e.g. graffi ti) is crossed.
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction, the
service warning lamp comes on, ac-
companied by an audible signal and
a message in the screen.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop. The lane departure warning sys-
tem cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the
driver.
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 surface.

DRIVING
Operation
You have identifi ed a parking space:
)
Press button A
to select the function.
)
Activate the direction indicator
on the side where the space is to
be measured.
)
During measurement, go forward
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.
)
The system informs you of the level of
diffi culty of the manoeuvre via a mes-
sage in the instrument panel screen
accompanied by an audible signal.
)
Depending on the message issued
by the system, you may or may not
be able to perform the manoeuvre.
The function displays the following
types of message:
Parking YES
Parking
DIFFICULT
Parking NO
The function deselects itself auto-
matically:
- when you engage reverse gear,
- when you switch off the ignition,
- if measurement is not requested,
- within fi ve minutes of selection of
the function,
- if 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 af-
ter 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 forward gear.
If there is a fault, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.

DRIVING
Request not granted
The instrument panel screen tempo-
rarily displays a message indicating
that this position is not authorised.
The vehicle remains in the autho-
rised position and the instrument
panel screen indicates this position
to you.
Automatic variation of ground clear-
ance
- If your speed exceeds 70 mph
(approx. 110 km/h), on a good
road surface, ground clearance
is lowered. The vehicle returns
to its normal position if the road
surface deteriorates or if your
speed is lower than 55 mph (ap-
prox. 90 km/h).
- At low or medium speed, if the
road surface is poor, ground
clearance is increased. The ve-
hicle returns to its normal posi-
tion as soon as conditions allow.
- On switching off the ignition, the
ground clearance is reduced to
the parking position.
For your safety if you are operating
underneath the vehicle, you must
support the vehicle with axle stands.

CHECKS
CHECKING LEVELS
Check all of these levels regularly
and top them up if necessary, unless
otherwise indicated.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have
the corresponding system checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
Oil level
Oil change
Refer to the servicing booklet for de-
tails of the interval for this operation.
Oil specifi cation
The oil must correspond to your
engine and conform to the manufac-
turer's recommendations.
Brake fluid level
Fluid change
Refer to the servicing booklet for de-
tails of the interval for this operation.
This fl uid must be changed regu-
larly. Fluid which has been used for
too long may cause a loss of braking
effi ciency.
Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations
and meet the DOT4 standard.
The reading will only be
correct if the vehicle is on
level ground and the engine
has been off for more than
30 minutes.
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel, or using the dipstick.
Check this level also between each
scheduled service and before long
journeys.
Take care when doing anything
under the bonnet, as some parts
of the engine can be extremely hot
(risk of burns). The brake fl uid level should
be close to the "MAX" mark.
If it is not, check the brake
pad wear.
In order to maintain the reliability
of the engine and emission con-
trol system, the use of additives
in the engine oil is prohibited.
Power steering fluid or power
steering and suspension
fluid level
This fl uid must be topped up
by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Dipstick
There are 2 marks on the
dipstick:
- A
= max; never exceed
this level,
- B
= min; top up the level
via the oil fi ller cap, us-
ing the type of oil suited
to your engine.

CHECKS
Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid
Fluid specifi cation
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped
up or replaced with plain water.
Reservoir capacities:
-
screenwash: approximately 3.5 litres,
- screenwash and headlamp wash:
approximately 6.15 litres.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel engine with particle
emission filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop without delay.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of
used oil or fl uids with the
skin.
Most of these fl uids are harmful to
health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or
fl uids into sewers or onto the
ground.
Take used oil to a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop (France) or
to an authorised waste disposal
site. In the case of vehicles fi tted
with headlamp washers, the
minimum level of this fl uid
is indicated by an audible
signal and a message in the multi-
function screen.
Top up the level when you stop the
vehicle.
Coolant level
Coolant change
The coolant does not have to be
changed.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm,
the temperature of the coolant is
regulated by the fan. This can oper-
ate with the ignition off.
On vehicles which are fi tted with
a particle emission fi lter, the fan
may operate after the vehicle has
been switched off, even if the en-
gine is cold.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour
after switching off the engine before
carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, un-
screw the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop. When
the pressure has dropped, remove
the cap and top up the level. The additive reservoir
low level is indicated
by fi xed illumination
of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible warning
and a message in the multifunction
screen.
