Safety
or more wheels spinning. It also enhances the
vehicle's directional stability.
If there is a difference between the vehicle’s
trajectory and the path desired by the driver, the
dynamic stability control system automatically
uses engine braking and the brakes on one or
more wheels to return the vehicle to the desired
path, within the limits of the laws of physics.
These systems are activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
These systems are activated in the event of a problem with grip or trajectory
(confirmed by this warning lamp flashing on the
instrument panel).
Deactivation/Reactivation
In exceptional conditions (moving a vehicle that
is bogged down in mud, stuck in snow, on loose
soil, etc.), it may prove useful to deactivate the
DSC/ASR systems, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.
However, it is recommended that the systems be
reactivated as soon as possible.
Only the ASR system can be deactivated
from the touch screen.
Deactivating using the button or Advanced
Grip Control
Press this button or turn the thumbwheel
to this position.
The indicator lamp in the button or thumbwheel
comes on: the DSC/ASR systems no longer
have an effect on engine operation. Deactivating using the touch screen
In the "Driving/Vehicle" menu, deactivate
the ASR system.
A confirmation message is displayed and
this warning lamp on the instrument panel
comes on.
The ASR system no longer acts on the operation
of the engine.
Reactivating using the button or Advanced

Or
Turn the thumbwheel to this position.
The indicator lamp in the button or thumbwheel
goes off.
Reactivating using the touch screen
In the "Driving/Vehicle" menu, activate
the ASR system.
A confirmation message is displayed and this warning lamp on the instrument panel
goes off.
These systems are reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched off, or at
speeds over 31 mph (50
km/h).
Below 31 mph (50
km/h), these systems must be
reactivated manually.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp comes on on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
ASR/DSC
These systems enhance safety during
normal driving, but should not encourage
the driver to take extra risks or drive at high
speed.
It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain, snow,
ice) that the risk of loss of grip increases. It
is therefore important for your safety to keep
these systems activated in all conditions, and
particularly in difficult conditions.
Correct operation of these systems depends
on compliance with the manufacturer's
recommendations relating to the wheels
(tyres and rims), braking and electronic
components, as well as the assembly and
repair procedures provided by CITROËN
dealers.
In order to ensure that these systems remain
effective in wintry conditions, the use of snow
or all-season tyres is recommended. All four
wheels must be fitted with tyres approved for
your vehicle.
All tyre specifications are listed on the
tyre/paint label. For more information
on Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section.
Intelligent traction control
("Snow motion")
Depending on version, the vehicle has a system
to help with driving on snow: intelligent traction
control.
This system detects situations of poor surface
grip that could make it difficult to move off
or make progress on deep fresh snow or
compacted snow.
In these situations, the system limits the amount
of wheel spin to provide the best traction and
trajectory control for the vehicle.
The use of snow tyres is strongly recommended on surfaces offering low
levels of grip.
Trailer stability assist (TSA)
When towing, this system reduces the risk of the
vehicle or trailer snaking.
Operation
The system is activated automatically when the
ignition is switched on.
The electronic stability control system (ESC)
must not have any faults.
The vehicle speed must be between 37 and 99
mph (60 and 160 km/h).
If the system detects that the trailer is
snaking, it applies the brakes to stabilise
the trailer and reduces engine power, if
necessary, to slow the vehicle (indicated by the

the trailer and reduces engine power, if
necessary, to slow the vehicle (indicated by the
flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument
panel and the brake lamps coming on).
For information on weights and towed loads,
refer to the Engine technical data and towed
loads section or your vehicle’s registration
certificate.
To ensure safe driving with a Towing device,
refer to the corresponding section.
Malfunction
If a fault occurs, this warning lamp lights
up on the instrument panel, accompanied
by a message and an audible signal.
To continue towing a trailer, reduce speed and
drive carefully!
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The trailer stability control system provides an extra safety feature under
normal driving conditions, when following the
recommendations for use of trailers and
current legislation in force in your country. It
must not encourage the driver to take extra
risks, such as using a trailer in unsuitable
conditions of operation (e.g.
excessive load,
exceeded nose weight, worn or under-inflated
tyres, faulty braking system) or driving at
excessive speed.
In certain cases, the system may not detect
trailer snaking, particularly with a light trailer.
When driving on slippery or poor surfaces, the
system may not be able to prevent sudden
trailer snaking.
Advanced Grip Control
(Depending on version)
A special, patented traction control system,
which improves driveability on snow, mud and
sand.
This system, optimised for operation in a range
of conditions, enables you to manoeuvre in most
slippery conditions (encountered during normal
passenger car use).
When combined with all-season Peak Mountain
Snow Flake tyres, this system offers a
compromise between safety, grip and driveability.
The accelerator pedal should be pressed
sufficiently to allow the system to harness the
power of the engine. Operation at high engine
speeds is completely normal.
A five-position selector knob allows you to
choose the setting best suited to the driving
conditions encountered.
An indicator lamp associated with each mode
comes on, accompanied by the display of a
message to confirm your choice.

Safety
Operating modes
Standard (ESC)
This mode is calibrated for a low level of wheel spin, based on the different levels
of grip normally encountered on the road.
Whenever the ignition is switched off, the
system automatically resets to this mode.
Snow
This mode adapts its strategy to the conditions of grip encountered for each of
the two front wheels on moving off.
(mode active up to 50 mph (80
km/h))
All terrain (mud, damp grass, etc.)
This mode, when moving off, allows considerable spin on the wheel with the
least grip to optimise clearing of the mud and to
regain grip. At the same time, the wheel with the
most grip is controlled in such a way as to
transmit as much torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.
(mode active up to 31 mph (50
km/h))
Sand
This mode allows little spin on the two driving wheels at the same time to allow
the vehicle to move forward and limit the risks of
getting stuck in the sand.
(mode active up to 75 mph (120
km/h))
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck.
You can deactivate the ASR and DSC systems by turning the knob to the "OFF"
position.
The ASR and DSC systems will no longer act on the operation of the engine
or of the brakes in the event of a change of
trajectory.
These systems are reactivated automatically
from 31 mph (50
km/h) and whenever the
ignition is switched on.
Recommendations
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive on tarmac roads but it allows you to
occasionally drive on other less passable
terrain.
However, it does not permit off-road driving
such as:
–
crossing and driving on terrain which
could damage the underbody or strip away
components (fuel pipe, fuel cooler
, etc.) due
to obstacles or stones in particular,
–
driving on terrain with steep gradients and
poor grip,
–
crossing a stream.
Seat belts
Inertia reel
The seat belts are equipped with an inertia reel
which allows the strap length to automatically
adjust to your shape. The seat belt returns to its
storage automatically when it is not used.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device which
automatically locks the strap in the event of a
collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls
over. It can be released by pulling the strap firmly
and then releasing it so that it reels in slightly.
Pyrotechnic pretensioning
This system improves safety in the event of a
frontal or side impact.
Depending on the severity of the impact, the
pyrotechnic pretensioning system instantly
tightens the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
The pyrotechnic pretensioning seat belts are
enabled when the ignition is on.
Force limiter
This system reduces the pressure of the seat
belt on the chest of the occupant, thus improving
their protection.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of the impacts, the pyrotechnic
device may trigger before and independently
of airbag deployment. Deployment of the
pretensioners is accompanied by a slight
discharge of harmless smoke and a noise,
due to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes
on.
Following an impact, have the seat belt
system checked, and if necessary replaced,
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Advice
The driver must ensure that passengers use the seat belts correctly and that they
are all fastened before setting off.
Wherever seated in the vehicle, you must
always fasten the seat belt, even for short
journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles, as they
will not fulfil their role properly.
To ensure the proper functioning of the belt
buckles, make sure that there are no foreign
bodies present (e.g.
a coin) before fastening.
Before and after use, ensure that the seat belt
is reeled in correctly.
After folding or moving a seat or rear bench
seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned
and reeled in correctly.
Installation
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible over the pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in the
hollow of the shoulder.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
–
be tightened as close to the body as
possible.
–
be pulled in front of you with a smooth
movement, ensuring that it is not twisted.
–
only be used to secure one person.
–
not show signs of tearing or fraying.
–
not be changed or modified, in order to
avoid affecting its performance.
Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passenger
is less than 12 years old or shorter than 1.5
metres.
Never use the same seat belt to secure more
than one child.
Never carry a child on your lap.
For more information on Child seats, refer to
the corresponding section.
Maintenance
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all work on your vehicle's
seat belts, contact a qualified workshop with
the skills and equipment needed, which a
CITROËN dealer is able to provide.
Have the seat belts checked regularly by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop,
particularly if the straps show signs of
damage.
