Operation
When your vehicle is too close to or
approaches the  vehicle  ahead  too  quickly  the Â
s
ystem  automatically  applies  the  brakes  to Â
a
void  a  collision. The
 collision  can  be  avoided  automatically  if  the d
ifference in speed between your vehicle and the
vehicle
 ahead  does  not  exceed  9  mph  (15  km/h).
Above
 this  threshold,  the  system  will  do  what
 i
s possible to avoid or reduce the accident by
lowering
 the  speed  of  impact.
The
 automatic  braking  may  bring  the  vehicle  to Â
a
 complete  stop  if  the  situation  requires  it.
In this case, the vehicle is held stationary
temporarily
 (for  about  1.5  seconds)  to  allow Â
t
he  driver  to  take  back  control  by  pressing  the Â
b
rake
 ped
al.
You are then alerted by the display of a
message.
The
 brake  lamps  on  your  vehicle  come  on  to Â
w
arn  other  road  users.
After
 an  impact,  the  system  is Â
a

You
 must  go  to  a  CITROËN  dealer  or  a Â
q

m
ade  operational  again.
During
 automatic  braking,  the  driver Â
c
an  always  obtain  a  higher  rate  of Â
d
eceleration than that controlled by the
system,
 by  pressing  firmly  on  the  brake Â
ped
al.
The
 triggering  of  the  system  may  cause Â
t
he  engine  to  stall,  unless  the  driver Â
d
epresses  the  clutch  pedal  quickly Â
e
nough  during  automatic  braking.
