Automatic headlamp dipping

This system automatically changes between
dipped and main beam, depending on the
lighting and traffic conditions, using a camera
located in the interior rear view mirror.


Front and rear parking sensors

This systems warns you of the presence of
obstacles located in front of or behind the
vehicle during parking manoeuvres.



Temporary puncture repair kit

This kit is a complete system consisting of a
compressor and a sealant cartridge, to allow
the temporary repair of a tyre.

Exterior

Reversing camera

This system, available only with satellite
navigation, is activated automatically on
engaging reverse gear and provides an image
in the colour screen.


Exterior expressive stickers

A high pressure jet wash must not be
used to clean the vehicle.

Parking lamps

Side markers for the vehicle by illumination of
the sidelamps on the traffic side only.



Within one minute of switching off the
ignition, operate the lighting control stalk
up or down depending on the traffic side
(for example: when parking on the left;
lighting control stalk upwards; the right
hand sidelamps are on).
This is confirmed by an audible signal and
illumination of the corresponding direction
indicator warning lamp in the instrument panel.
To switch off the parking lamps, return the
lighting control stalk to the middle position or
switch on the ignition. Temporarily keeping the dipped beam
headlamps on after the vehicle's ignition has
been switched off makes the exit of the vehicle's
occupants easier when the light is poor.






Manual guide-me-home
lighting

Switching on




Within one minute after switching of the
ignition, "flash" the headlamps using the
lighting stalk.


A further "headlamp flash" switches the
function off.



Switching off

The manual guide-me-home lighting switches
off automatically after a set time (this time is
programmable in the configuration menu).

The system may suffer inter ference or
not work correctly:


- under conditions of poor visibility
(for example, snowfall, heavy rain
or thick fog, ...),

- if the windscreen is dirty, misted or
obscured (by a sticker, ...) in front of
the camera,

- if the vehicle is facing highly
reflective signs.


The system is not able to detect:


- road users that do not have their
own lighting, such as pedestrians,

- road users whose lighting is
obscured, such as vehicles running
behind a safety barrier (on a
motor way, for example),

- road users at the top or bottom of
a steep slope, on twisty roads, on
crossroads.

Main beam headlamps
(xenon model)



Remove the protective plastic cover by
pulling on the tab.


Remove the connector with the bulb by
pressing on the lug at the bottom.


Remove the bulb and change it.
For reassembly, carry out these operations in
reverse order.

The headlamps are fitted with
polycarbonate glass with a protective
coating:



do not clean them using a dr y
or abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent or solvent product,



use a sponge and soapy water or a
pH neutral product,


when using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep
the lance directed towards the
lamps or their edges for too long,
so as not to damage their protective
coating and seals.
Changing a bulb should only be done
after the headlamp has been switched
off for a few minutes (risk of serious
burns).



Do not touch the bulb directly with
your fingers, use a lint-free cloth.
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs to avoid
damaging the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specification.










Dipped beam headlamps
(xenon model)
D1S xenon bulbs must be changed
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop, as there is a risk of
electrocution.
It is recommended that the D1S bulbs
are changed at the same time when
one of them fails.
