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.
When the limit speed is exceeded but is not
due to action by the driver, there is an audible
signal to complete the alert.
Once the speed of the vehicle returns to
the programmed setting, the speed limiter
functions again: the display of the programmed
speed setting becomes steady again. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a

stability control system is triggered.
As a safety measure, you are advised
to keep your feet near the pedals at all
times.

Adjusting the cruise speed
setting
The cruise control must be activated. As a precaution, it is recommended
that the cruise speed chosen be close
to the current speed of your vehicle, so
as to avoid any sudden acceleration or
deceleration of the vehicle.

Only use the cruise control if the traffic
conditions will allow you to drive for a
certain time at a steady speed and at a
safe distance from the vehicle ahead.
Do not activate the cruise control in
urban areas, in heavy traffic, on winding
or steep roads, on slippery or flooded
roads, or in conditions of poor visibility
(heavy rain, fog, falling snow...).
In some circumstances, it may not
be possible to maintain or reach the
programmed speed: towing, vehicle
heavily loaded, steep climb.
Switching off
You may have to brake to control the speed of
your vehicle. In this case, the cruise control is
automatically paused.
To activate the system again, press button 4.
Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speed
F Turn wheel 1 to the "0" p osition: the cruise
control information disappears from the
screen.
When required (overtaking manoeuvre...), it is
possible to exceed the programmed speed by
pressing the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is temporarily overridden
and the programmed speed setting flashes.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Once the vehicle has returned to the
programmed speed, the cruise control takes
over again: the display of the programmed
speed setting becomes steady again.
When descending a steep hill, the
cruise control system cannot prevent
the vehicle from exceeding the
programmed speed.
Operating fault
Flashing dashes indicate a fault with the cruise
control system.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. The use of mats not approved by
CITROËN may inter fere with the
operation of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:

This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
which comes within the field of detection of
sensors located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworks
cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer be
detected at the end of the manoeuvre, if they
are located in blind spots in the sensors' field
of detection.
Parking sensors
This system cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Rear parking sensors
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of which
increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)
indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the screen which move
progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed in the screen.
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
g e a r.
This is confirmed by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.

137
DS5_en_Chap04_conduite_ed02-2015
In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered with
mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is
engaged, an audible signal (long beep)
indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle,
lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger
the audible signals of the parking
sensor system.
In the event of a malfunction of the
system, when reverse gear is engaged
this warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the screen, accompanied
by an audible signal (short beep).
Operating fault
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of
the vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in for ward gear, if no further obstacles are
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front parking
sensors
The function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed
or a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle
fitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier
recommended by CITROËN).
deactivation / Activation of
t he front and rear parking
sensors
The function is deactivated by pressing this
button. The indicator lamp in the button
comes
o

n.
Pressing this button again reactivates the
function. The indicator lamp in the button
goes off.
The sound emitted by the speaker (front
or rear) indicates whether the obstacle
is in front or behind. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Reversing camera
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image from the camera is displayed in the
touch screen.
The reversing camera system may be
accompanied by parking sensors.The blue lines represent the general direction
of the vehicle.
The blue curved lines represent the maximum
turning circle.
The green lines represent distances of around
1 to 2 metres beyond the edge of the vehicle's
rear bumper.
The red line represents the distance of around
30 cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r. The lines displayed in the screen do not
allow the position of the vehicle to be
determined relative to tall obstacles (for
example: vehicles nearby).
Some deformation of the image is
normal.
This system is a driving aid that does
not replace vigilance on the part of the
driver, who must remain in control of the
vehicle at all times.
High pressure jet washing
When cleaning your vehicle, keep the
end of the high pressure lance at least
30 cm from the camera lens.
Clean the camera lens regularly using
a soft cloth.
