Dash Citroen DS3 2011 1.G User Guide

153Safety













For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:

Front airbags

Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its
spokes or resting your hands on the centre
part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the
dashboard.
If possible, do not smoke as deployment of
the airbags can cause burns or the risk of
injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or
hit it violently.




Lateral airbags

Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a CITROËN dealer (see "Practical
information - § Accessories").
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs (clothing...). This could cause injury
to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is
deployed.
Do not sit with the upper par t of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.


Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the roof.
This could cause injury to the head if the
cur tain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the grab handles installed
on the roof, they play a par t in securing the
curtain airbags.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the occupants
and the airbags (a child, pet, object...). This
could hamper the operation of the airbags or
injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be carried
out by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned
are obser ved, a risk of injury or of minor
burns to the head, chest or arms when an
airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. The
bag inflates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then deflates within the same
time discharging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.

)
Turn thumb wheel 1
to the "LIMIT"

position: the speed limiter mode is
selected but is not switched on (PAUSE).
You do not have to switch the speed limiter on
in order to set the speed.


)
Set the speed value by pressing button 2

or 3
(e.g.: 55 mph (90 km/h)).


Programming

You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2
and 3
:


- by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = shor t press,

- by + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press,

- in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.


)
Switch the speed limiter on by pressing button 4
.

)
Switch the speed limiter off by pressing button 4
: the display
confirms that it has been switched off (PAUSE).

)
Switch the speed limiter back on by pressing button 4
again.



Exceeding the programmed speed

Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the programmed speed will not have
any effect unless you press the pedal firmly
past the point of resistance
.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the programmed speed,
which is still displayed, flashes.
Returning to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or
unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the
flashing of the programmed speed. On a steep descent or in the event of sharp
acceleration, the speed limiter will not be
able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding
the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:


- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,

- do not fit one mat on top of another.



Leaving limiter mode



)
Turn thumb wheel 1
to the "0"
position:
the speed limiter mode is deselected. The
display returns to the distance recorder.



Operating fault

In the event of a speed limiter fault, the speed
is cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Programming



)
Turn thumb wheel 1
to the "CRUISE"

position: the cruise control mode is
selected but is not switched on (PAUSE).

)
Set the programmed speed by accelerating
to the required speed, then press button 2
or
3
(e.g.: 70 mph (110 km/h)).
You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2
and 3
:


- by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = shor t press,

- by + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press,

- in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.


)
Switch off the cruise control by pressing button 4
: the screen
confirms that it has been switched off (PAUSE).

)
Switch the cruise control back on by pressing button 4
again.



Exceeding the programmed speed

Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the programmed speed results
in flashing of this speed in the screen.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or unintentional
deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of the speed.


Leaving cruise control mode



)
Turn thumb wheel 1
to the "0"
position: the cruise control mode is
deselected. The display returns to the distance recorder.



Operating fault

In the event of a cruise control malfunction,
the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the
dashes. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
When the cruise control is switched on,
be careful if you maintain the pressure on
one of the programmed speed changing
buttons: this may result in a very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on
slippery roads or in heavy traffic.
On a steep descent, the cruise control will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:


- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,

- never fit one mat on top of another.

TRIP COMPUTER/VEHICLE PARAMETERS


TRIP COMPUTER

Press the MODE button several
times in succession until the trip
computer is displayed.
Range:
displays the distance which can travelled with the
remaining fuel detected in the tank, based on the average fuel
consumption over the last few miles (kilometres).
This displayed value may vary signifi cantly following a change in
the vehicle speed or the relief of the route.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km), dashes are
displayed. After fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range is
recalculated and is displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If, whilst driving, dashes are displayed continuously in place of the
digits, contact a CITROËN dealer.

Each press of the button at the end of the wiper stalk displays
the different trip computer information in succession, according to
the screen.



A FEW DEFINITIONS



- The "vehicle" tab:
The range, the current fuel
consumption and the distance
remaining or the Stop & Start
time counter.

- The "1" (trip 1) tab with :
The average speed, the average
fuel consumption and the
distance travelled calculated
over trip "1".

- The "2" (trip 2) tab with the same
functions for a second trip.
Current fuel consumption:
only calculated and displayed above
20 mph (30 km/h).

Average fuel consumption:
this is the average fuel consumption
since the last trip computer zero reset.

Distance travelled:
calculated since the last trip computer zero
reset.

Distance remaining to the destination:
calculated with reference
to the fi nal destination, entered by the user. If guidance is activated,
the navigation system calculates it as a current value.

Average speed:
this is the average speed calculated since the last
trip computer zero reset (ignition on).







Stop & Start time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
If your vehicle is fi tted with Stop & Start, a time counter calculates
the time spent in STOP mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is switched on with the key.
