59Monitoring
Indicator and warning lamps
When the engine is started, these same warning lamps should go off. If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the information on the warning lamp concerned.
Associated warnings
The switching on of certain warning lamps may be accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the instrument panel screen. The warning lamps may come on continuously (fixed) or flash.
Certain warning lamps may come on in one of two modes: fixed (continuous) or flashing. Only by relating the type of illumination to the operation of the vehicle can it be determined whether the situation is normal or a fault has occurred. Refer to the tables on the following pages for more information.
Visual indicators informing the driver that a system is in operation, switched off or has a fault.
When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds in the instrument panel and/or instrument panel screen when the vehicle's ignition is switched on.

System for manual adjustment of the brightness of the instruments and controls in relation to the exterior brightness.
Lighting dimmer
Activation
When the lighting is on:
 press the button to change the brightness of the instruments and controls,  when the level of brightness required is reached, release the button.
Deactivation
When the lighting is off, or in day mode on vehicles fitted with daytime running lamps, pressing the button does not have any effect.
The total and trip distances are displayed for thirty seconds when the ignition is switched off, when the driver's door is opened and when the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
Distance recorders
Total distance recorder
System which measures the total distance travelled by the vehicle since its first registration.
To conform to legislation in the country you are crossing, change the units of distance (miles or km) via the configuration menu.
Trip distance recorder
System which measures a distance travelled during a day or other period since it was reset
to zero by the driver.  With the ignition on, press the button until zeros appear.

Safety anti-pinch
In automatic mode and at the end of its travel, if the blind meets an obstacle while closing it stops and moves back slightly.
If the blind stops and immediately opens again during a closing manoeuvre:  operate the control until the blind is fully open,  then operate the control until the blind is fully closed. The safety anti-pinch function is not operational during these operations.
If the blind meets an obstacle during operation, you must reverse the movement of the blind. To do this, press the control concerned. When the driver operates the blind control, they must ensure that no one is preventing correct closing of the blind. The driver must ensure that passengers use the blind correctly. Be aware of children when operating the blind.
Reinitialisation
If power to the blind is cut off while it is moving, the safety anti-pinch must be reinitialised:  operate the control until the blind is fully closed,  continue to press for at least 3 seconds. A slight movement of the blind will then be noticeable, confirming the reinitialisation.

107Comfort
Switch on the ignition or start the engine if the vehicle has gone into economy mode. The electric functions of the driver's seat are active for about 45 seconds after opening the front door. They are deactivated about 45 seconds after switching off the ignition and in economy mode.
To reactivate them, switch on the ignition.
Electric
1. Adjustment of the seat cushion angle and height, and forwards-backwards adjustment Raise or lower the front of the control to adjust the seat cushion angle.  Raise or lower the rear of the control to raise or lower the seat.  Simultaneously raise or lower the front and rear of the control in order to raise or lower the entire seat. 2.

4. Manual adjustment of the cushion Pull on the grip to adjust the length of the cushion.
Before moving the seat backwards, ensure that there is nothing that might prevent the full travel of the seat, so as to avoid the risk of of jamming the seat caused by the presence of objects on the floor behind the seat or rear passengers. If the seat jams, stop the movement immediately.

123Comfort
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below:  To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.  Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation of the digital air conditioning system.  Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it in per fect working order.  Ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section). We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).  To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have it checked regularly as recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.  If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. You can switch off the air conditioning (AC button) and stay in Automatic mode in order to limit fuel consumption. If misting appears while in this mode, you can switch the air conditioning back on temporarily to improve the situation. When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine, the interior temperature is very high, first ventilate the passenger compartment for a few moments. Put the air flow control at a setting high enough to quickly change the air in the passenger compartment. The air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the vehicle which is per fectly normal.

Dual-zone digital air conditioning
1. Automatic comfort programme
We recommend the use of one of the three AUTO modes available: they provide optimised regulation of the temperature in the passenger compartment according to the comfort value that you have chosen. These three modes automatically control the system, according to the desired setting, while also maintaining the desired comfort value.
 Press the "AUTO" button repeatedly: - a first indicator lamp comes on; the "low" setting mode is selected, - a second indicator lamp comes on; the "medium" setting mode is selected, - a third indicator lamp comes on; the "high" mode setting is selected. Use the "medium" and "high" settings in preference to maintain the comfort level at the r e a r.
When the engine is cold, the air flow will reach its optimum level progressively, taking account of the weather and the desired comfort level so as to avoid too great a distribution of cold air. On entering the vehicle, if the interior temperature is much colder or warmer than the comfort value, there is no need to change the value displayed in order to obtain the comfort required. In all seasons, with the windows closed the system corrects the difference in temperature automatically and as quickly as possible.
This system is designed to operate effectively
in all seasons, with the windows closed.
Automatic operation
The air conditioning can only operate when the hybrid system is active (Ready lamp on). Its effectiveness will be reduced when in electric mode (see the ECO OFF section).

It is recommended that you do not apply the parking brake in very cold conditions (ice) and during towing (recover y...). To do this, release the parking brake manually, select position A or R , then press the START/STOP switch to stop the engine.
The electric parking brake combines 2 operating modes: - Automatic Application/Release Application is automatic when the engine stops, release is automatic on use of the accelerator (this mode is activated by default), - Manual Application/Release Manual application of the parking brake is done by pulling control lever A. Manual release is done by pulling then releasing the control lever, while pressing the brake pedal . When the driver's door is opened, there is an audible signal and a message is displayed if the brake is not applied.
Programming the automatic mode
Depending on the country of sale of the vehicle, the automatic application when the engine is switched off and the automatic release when you press the accelerator can be deactivated. You can contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to have it activated.
In this case, programming is done via the configuration menu.
Electric parking brake
If deactivated, the parking brake must be applied and released manually. If this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, the automatic mode is deactivated.
Never leave the vehicle without checking that the parking brake is on.
This warning lamp comes on fixed (not flashing).
Label on door panel

With the hybrid system activated, press button 1 . The activated/deactivated status when the engine was switched off is retained when the engine is switched on again. The strip retracts automatically 3 seconds after switching off the engine except in STOP mode of Stop & Start.
Activation / Deactivation
 With the hybrid system active, adjust the brightness of the information using button 3 : - towards the rear to increase the brightness, - towards the front to decrease the brightness.
Brightness adjustment
We recommend that adjustments are only made using these buttons when the vehicle is stationary.
When stationary or while driving, no objects should be placed around the transparent strip (or on its cover) to avoid blocking the strip output and preventing its correct operation.
In certain extreme weather conditions (rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, ...) the head-up display may not be legible or may suffer temporary interference. Some sunglasses may hamper reading
of the information. To clean the transparent strip, use a clean, soft cloth (such as a spectacles cloth or microfibre cloth). Do not use a dry or abrasive cloth or detergent or solvent products as these could scratch the strip or damage the anti-reflection coating.
Height adjustment
 With the hybrid system active, adjust the display to the required height using button 2 : - towards the rear to move the display up, - towards the front to move the display down.

The cruise control system cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to respect speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance and responsibility on the part of the driver. You are advised to keep your feet near the pedals
at all times.

Cruise control
The functions of this system are grouped together on the steering mounted controls. 1. Cruise control mode selection dial. 2. Speed programming / value decrease button. 3. Speed programming / value increase
button. 4. Cruise control off / resume button. 5. Stored speeds display button.
Steering mounted controls
The programmed information is grouped together in the instrument panel screen. 6. Cruise control off / resume indication. 7. Cruise control mode selection indication. 8. Programmed speed value. 9. Selecting a stored speed.
Displays in the instrument panel System which automatically maintains the speed of the vehicle at the value programmed by the driver, without any action on the accelerator pedal.
This information also appears in the head-up display. For more information, refer to the "Head-up display" section.
Operation
The cruise control is switched on manually: it requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) and the engagement of second gear with sequential gear changing (position M ). The cruise control is switched off manually or switched off manually or switched offby pressing the brake pedal or on triggering of the "electronic stability programme" system for safety reasons. It is possible to exceed the programmed speed temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal. To return to the programmed speed, simply release the accelerator pedal. Switching off the ignition cancels any programmed speed value.
For more information on the list of memorised speeds, refer to the "Memorising speeds" section.

Foglamps selection ring
The foglamps operate with dipped and main beam headlamps.
Front and rear foglamps
Rotate and release the ring:  for wards a first time to switch on the front foglamps,  for wards a second time to switch on the rear foglamps,  rear wards a first time to switch off the rear foglamps,  rear wards a second time to switch of the
front fog lamps.
When the headlamps switch off with automatic illumination of headlamps (AUTO model) or when the dipped beam headlamps are switched off manually, the foglamps and sidelamps remain on.  Turn the ring rear wards to switch off the foglamps, the sidelamps will then switch off.
In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, the front foglamps and the rear foglamps are prohibited. In these situations, the power of their beams may dazzle other drivers. They should only be used in fog or snow. In these weather conditions, it is your responsibility to switch on the foglamps and dipped headlamps manually as the sunshine sensor may detect sufficient light. Do not forget to switch off the front foglamps and the rear foglamps when they are no longer needed.
