Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions).
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, put the selector
in position P or N to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle, unless it is programmed
to automatic mode.If the selector is not in position P ,
when the driver's door is opened or
approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off, there is an
audible signal and a message appears.
F
R
eturn the selector to position P ;
the audible signal stops and the
message disappears.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen to indicate a
gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel
a substantial knock when changing from P
to R and from N to R . This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. You risk damaging the gearbox:
-
i
f you press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time,
-
i
f you force the selector from
position P to another position when
the battery is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffic jam...), position
the gear selector at N and apply the
parking brake, unless it is programmed
in automatic mode.

Stop & StartThe Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
T he engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as
braking, power steering, for example.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key or the "START/STOP"
button.
The "ECO" warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
- with a manual gearbox, at speeds below 12 mph (20 km/h), or vehicle stationary with
PureTech 130 petrol and BlueHDi 115 and
120 Diesel versions, when you put the gear
lever into neutral and release the clutch
pedal,
-
w
ith an automatic gearbox, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or place the gear selector in position N .
If your vehicle is fitted with the
system, a time counter calculates
the sum of the periods in STOP
mode during a journey. It resets
itself to zero every time the
ignition is switched on with the key
or the "START/STOP" button.
STOP mode is not invoked when:
-
t he vehicle is on a steep slope (up or down),
-
t
he driver's door is open,
-
t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-
t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10 km/h)
since the last engine start (using the key or the
"START/STOP" button),
-
t
he electric parking brake is applied or being
applied,
-
t
he engine is needed to maintain a comfortable
temperature in the passenger compartment,
-
d
emisting is active,
-
s
ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
In this case, the "ECO" warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds, then goes
of f.
This operation is perfectly normal.

the "ECO OFF" switch warning lamp flashes,
then comes on continuously.
have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault in STOP mode,
the vehicle may stall. All of the
instrument panel warning lamps come
on.
Depending on version, an alert
message may also be displayed asking
you to put the gear lever into position N
and put your foot on the brake pedal.
It is then necessary to switch off the
ignition, then restart the engine using
the key or the "START/STOP" button.Before doing any work under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid the risk of injury
related to an automatic change to
START
mode.
The Stop & Start system makes use of
an advanced technology. All work on
this type of battery must only be carried
out by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Maintenance
This system requires the use of a 12 V battery
of specific technology and characteristics
(reference numbers available from a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by CITROËN would
introduces the risk of faults with the system.

Lane departure warning system
System which detects the involuntary crossing
of longitudinal traffic lane markings on the
ground (solid or broken line).
Sensors, fitted below the front bumper, trigger
a warning if the vehicle drifts over a lane
marking (speed higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
This system is particularly useful on motor ways
and main roads.
Activation
F When switching the ignition on or with the engine running, press this button; the
indicator lamp comes on.
The lane departure warning system
cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
It is necessary to observe driving
regulations and take a break every
two
hours.
deactivation
You are warned by the vibration of the driver's
seat cushion:
-
o
n the right-hand side, if the marking on
the ground has been crossed on the right,
-
o
n the left-hand side, if the marking 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 direction
marking (e.g. arrow) or non-standard marking
(e.g. graffiti) is crossed.
detection Operating fault
The detection may be impeded:
- i
f the sensors are dirty (mud, snow...),
-
i
f the markings on the ground are
worn,
-
i
f there is little contrast between
the markings on the ground and
the road sur face.
F
P
ress this button again, the indicator lamp
goes off.
The status of the system remains in the
memory when the ignition is switched off. In the event of a malfunction, the
service warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Blind spot sensors
This driving assistance system warns the driver
of the presence of another vehicle in the blind
spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from
the driver's field of vision), as soon as this
presents a potential danger.
Operation
This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a
substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's
responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to assess the distances and relative speeds of
other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.
The blind spot sensor system can never replace the need for vigilance on the part of
the
d
river. F
O
n switching on the ignition, or engine
running, press this button to activate the
function; the warning lamp comes on.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
-
i
mmediately, when being overtaken,
-
a
fter a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly.

Operating fault
In the event of a fault, the warning lamp in the
button flashes then goes off.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.The system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather
conditions (rain, hail...).
In particular, driving on a wet sur face
or moving from a dry area to a wet area
can cause false alerts (for example, the
presence of a fog of water droplets in
the blind spot angle is interpreted as a
vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that
the sensors are not covered by mud,
ice or snow.
Take care not to cover the warning
zone in the door mirrors or the
detection zones on the front and rear
bumpers with adhesive labels or other
objects; they may hamper the correct
operation of the system.
F
T
o deactivate the system, press this button
again; the warning lamp goes off.
The state of the system remains in memory on
switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically
deactivated when towing with a towbar
approved by CITROËN.

System which automatically maintains the cruising speed of the vehicle at a setting programmed by the driver, without any action on the accelerator
pedal.
The cruise control is switched on
manually.
It requires a minimum vehicle speed of
25 mph (40 km/h) as well as:
-
