LED daytime running lampsThis daytime lighting, a signature of the vehicle, comprises   two   sets   of   light-emitting   diodes  
(

LEDs),   located   in   vertical   housings   below   each  
h

eadlamp.
On
  starting   the   vehicle,   in   daylight   the   daytime  
r

unning   lamps   come   on   automatically,   if   the  
l

ighting   stalk   is   in   position   "0" or "AUTO" .
If
  the   sidelamps   and   headlamps   are   switched  
o

n   manually   or   automatically,   the   daytime  
r

unning   lamps   go   off.

f

or   which   the   duration   is   fixed   at   60   seconds).

Automatic rain sensitive
windscreen wipers
The windscreen wipers operate automatically, without   any   action   on   the   part   of   the   driver,   if  
r

ain   is   detected   (sensor   behind   the   rear   view  
m

irror),   adapting   their   speed   to   the   intensity   of  
t

he   rainfall.
Activation
This is controlled manually by the driver by pushing s talk A to the "AUTO" p osition.
It is accompanied by the illumination of this indicator   lamp   in   the   instrument   panel   and a

  message   in   the   multifunction   screen.
Switching off
This is controlled manually by the driver by   moving   stalk   A   upwards,   returning   it   to  
p

osition

"0".
It
  is   accompanied   by   the   indicator   lamp
 i

n   the   instrument   panel   going   off   and   a
 m

essage   in   the   multifunction   screen.The
  automatic   wiping   must   be  r
eactivated   if   the   ignition   has   been   off  
f

or   more   than   one   minute,   by   pushing  
s

talk   A   downwards.

Operating fault
If an automatic wiping fault occurs, the wipers will   operate   in   intermittent   mode.
Have
  it   checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q

ualified
 w
orkshop.
To retain the effectiveness of the flat
wiper
  blades,   it   is   advisable   to:
-
 
h
andle   them   with   care,
-
 
c
lean   them   regularly   using   soapy  
w

ater,
-
 
n
ot   use   them   to   hold   a   sheet   of  
c

ardboard   against   the   windscreen,
-
 
r
eplace   them   at   the   first   signs   of  
w

e a r.
Do
  not   cover   the   rain   sensor,   linked  
w

ith   the   sunshine   sensor   and   located   in  
t

he   centre   of   the   windscreen   behind   the  
r

ear   view   mirror.
Switch
  off   the   automatic   wiping   when  
u

sing   an   automatic   car   wash.
In
  winter,   it   is   advisable   to   wait   until   the  
w

indscreen   is   completely   clear   of   ice  
b

efore   activating   the   automatic   wiping.This
  position   allows   the   wiper   blades   to  
b

e   lifted   for   winter   parking,   cleaning   or  
r

eplacement   without   damaging   the   bonnet.
In
  the   minute   following   switching   off   of   the  
i

gnition,   any   action   on   the   wiper   stalk   positions  
t

he   wipers   vertically.
To
  park   the   wipers   after   this   has   been   done,
 s

witch   on   the   ignition   and   operate   the   wiper   stalk.

Under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
T he   under-inflation   detection   system  
d

oes   not   replace   the   need   for   vigilance  
o

n   the   part   of   the   driver.
This
  system   does   not   avoid   the   need   to  
c

heck   the   tyre   pressures   (including   the  
s

pare   wheel)   every   month   as   well   as  
b

efore   a   long   journey.
Driving
  with   under-inflated   tyres  
i

mpairs   road   holding,   extends   braking  
d

istances   and   causes   premature  
t

yre   wear,   particularly   under   arduous  
c

ondition   (high   loading,   high   speed,  
lon

g
 jo
urney).The
  inflation   pressures   defined   for  
y

our   vehicle   can   be   found   on   the   tyre  
p

ressure   label.
For
  more   information   on   the  
i

dentification   markings,   refer   to   the  
c

orresponding
 s
ection.
Tyre
  pressures   should   be   checked  
w

hen   the   tyres   are   "cold"   (vehicle  
s

topped   for   1   hour   or   after   a   journey   of  
l

ess   than   6   miles   (10   km)   at   moderate  
s

peeds).
Other wise
  (when   hot),   add   0.3   bar   to  
t

he   pressures   shown   on   the   label.
Driving
  with   under-inflated   tyres  
i

ncreases   fuel   consumption.
The
  system   monitors   the   pressures   in   the   four  
t

yres,   once   the   vehicle   is   moving.
It
  compares   the   information   given   by   the   four  
w

heel   speed   sensors   with   reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed .
The
  system   triggers   an   alert   as   soon   as   it  
d

etects   a   drop   in   the   inflation   pressure   of   one  
o

r   more   tyres.

Active City Brake
Active City Brake is a driving assistance system   that   aims   to   avoid   a   frontal   collision  
o

r   reduce   the   speed   of   an   impact   if   the   driver  
d

oes   not   react   sufficiently   (inadequate   brake  
a

pplication). This
  system   is   designed   to   improve  
d

riving   safety.
It
  remains   the   driver's   responsibility   to  
c

ontinuously   monitor   the   state   of   the  
t

raffic   and   to   assess   the   distances   and  
r

elative   speeds   of   other   vehicles.
Active
  City   Brake   can   in   no  
c

ircumstances   replace   the   need   for  
v

igilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
Never
  look   at   the   laser   sensor   through  
an o

ptical
 in
strument
 (
magnifying
 g
lass,
 m

icroscope...)   at   a   distance   of   less   than  
1

0   centimetres:   risk   of   eye   injury.Automatic
  braking   occurs   later   than   if  
d

one   by   the   driver,   so   as   to   intervene  
o

nly   when   there   is   a   high   risk   of  
c

ollision.Principle
Using a laser sensor located at the top of the windscreen,   this   system   detects   a   vehicle  
r

unning   in   the   same   direction   or   stationary  
a

head   of   your   vehicle.
When
  necessary,   the   vehicle's   braking   system  
i

s   operated   automatically   to   avoid   a   collision  
w

ith   the   vehicle   ahead.
Conditions for activation
Active City Brake only operates if the following conditions   are   met:
●
 
i
gnition   on,
●
 
t
he   vehicle   is   in   a   for ward   gear,
●
 
s
peed   is   between   about   3   and   18   mph  
(5
  and   30   km/h),
●
 
t
he   braking   assistance   systems   (ABS,  
E

BFD,   emergency   braking   assistance)   are  
n

ot faulty,
●
 
t
he   trajectory   control   systems   (ASR,   DSC)  
a

re   not   deactivated   or   faulty,
●
 
t
he   vehicle   is   not   in   a   tight   corner,
●
 
t
he   system   has   not   been   triggered   during  
t

he   previous   10   seconds.
Safety

Operating faults
In the event of an impact to the windscreen   at   the   sensor,   deactivate  
t

he   system   and   contact   a   CITROËN  
d

ealer   or   a   qualified   workshop to   have  
y

our   windscreen   replaced.
Never
  try   to   remove,   adjust   or   test   the
 sen

sor.
Only
  a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified
 w

orkshop   is   able   to   work   on   the   system.
When
  towing   a   trailer   or   when   the  
v

ehicle   is   being   towed,   the   system   must  
b

e   deactivated.
Do
 
not
 
stick
 
or
 
other wise
 
fix
 
any
 
object o
n
 
the
 
windscreen
 
in
 
front
 
of
 
the
 
sensor.
Sensor fault
The operation of the laser sensor may suffer i
nter ference   from   accumulations   of   dirt   or  
m

isting   of   the   windscreen.   In   this   case   you   are  
w

arned   by   the   display   of   a   message.
Use
  the   windscreen   demisting   and   regularly  
c

lean   the   area   of   the   windscreen   in   front   of   the  
sen

sor.
System fault
In the event of a malfunction of the system, you are   warned   by   an   audible   signal   and   the   display  
o

f   the   message   Automatic braking system
