Cruise control - "CRUISE"
System which automatically maintains the speed of the vehicle at the value programmed by the driver, without any action on the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control system cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to observe speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Y ou are advised to keep your feet near the pedals at all times.
Switching on the cruise control requires a
minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph (40 km/h).
As
well as engagement of:
-
f
ourth gear or higher on a manual gearbox,
-
s
econd gear or higher in manual mode on
a
n automatic gearbox,
-
p
osition D on an automatic gearbox.
The
system remains active after changing gear
o
n vehicles with a manual gearbox and
Stop
& Start.
The cruise control is paused
by pressing
b
utton 4 or the brake pedal or on triggering of
t
he ESC system for safety reasons.
It
is possible to exceed the programmed speed
t
emporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.

ehicle in front and the inter-vehicle time
se
tting
c
hosen),
-
w
hen the distance between your vehicle
a
nd the one in front becomes too small,
-
w
hen the speed of the vehicle in front is too
l
ow,
-
w
hen the speed of your vehicle becomes
t
oo low.
The

The system does not act on the braking s ystem, but works only with engine braking.
The
regulation range is limited: there will
n
o longer be any adjustment of speed if the
d
ifference between the programmed speed
s
etting and the speed of the vehicle in front
b
ecomes too high (18 mph (30 km/h)).
If the difference between the programmed speed setting and the
s
peed of the vehicle in front is too
g
reat, the speed cannot be adjusted:
t
he cruise control is automatically
d

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking. It detects a parking space then
o
perates the steering to park in the space.
It
operates the steering while the driver
m
anages the accelerator, brakes, gears and
c
lutch (manual gearbox). During phases of
e
ntry into and exit from a parking space, the
s
ystem provides visual and audible information
t
o the driver in order to make the manoeuvres
s
afe. It may be necessary to move for wards
a
nd backwards more than once. During
a manoeuvre the steering
w
heel turns quickly: do not hold the
s
teering wheel, do not place your hands
b
etween the spokes of the steering
w
heel and take care with loose and
b
ulky clothing, scarves, handbags...
T
here is a risk of injury.
When
Park Assist is activated, it
p
revents a change to STOP mode of
S
top & Start. In STOP mode, activation
o
f Park Assist restarts the engine.
The
Park Assist system cannot in any
c
ircumstances replace the need for
v
igilance on the part of the driver.
The
driver must remain in control
o
f their vehicle ensuring that the
s
pace remains clear throughout the
m
anoeuvre.
In
some circumstances, the sensors
m
ay not detect small obstacles located
i
n their blind spots.
The
driver can take control at any time by
g
ripping the steering wheel. The

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
However,
check that the terminals
a
re clean and correctly tightened,
p
articularly in summer and winter.Refer
to the manufacturer's s
ervice schedule for details of the
r
eplacement intervals for these
c
omponents.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the engine oil is changed.
Refer
to the manufacturer's
s
ervice schedule for details of
t
he replacement interval for this
c
omponent.
Oil filterThe presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates the u
se of a specific 12 V lead-acid battery
w
ith special technology and specification.
T
he involvement of a CITROËN dealer
o
r a qualified workshop is essential when
r
eplacing or disconnecting the battery.
Unless
other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty a
tmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city d
riving),
r
eplace them twice as often if necessar y .
A
clogged passenger compartment filter may have
a
n adverse effect on the per formance of the air
c
onditioning system and generate undesirable
o
dours.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filter is indicated by the fixed
i
llumination of this warning lamp
a
ccompanied by a warning message.
As
soon as the traffic conditions permit,
r
egenerate the filter by driving at a
s
peed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
t
he
warning lamp goes off.
If
the warning lamp stays on, this
i
ndicates a low additive level.
