READY TO SET OFF
Steering wheel controls
Function selected,
displaying of the "Cruise Control" indicator
light.
Function deactivated,

OFF (example at 107 km/h). Function activated
(example at 107 km/h).
Vehicle speed above (e.g. 118 km/h),
the programmed speed is displayed flashing.
This cruise control shows the function
selection status on the instrument panel and
displays the programmed speed:
CRUISE CONTROL "CRUISE"
"This is the speed at which the
driver wishes to drive".
This aid to driving in free-flowing
traffic enables the vehicle to maintain the
speed programmed by the driver, unless a
steep gradient makes this impossible.
In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be greater
than 25 mph (40 km/h) with at least 4th gear
engaged on the manual gearbox (second on
the piloted manual gearbox). Operating fault detected,

OFF - the dashes flash.

Steering wheel controls
Selecting the function
- Place the ring in the CRUISE position.
The cruise control is selected but is
not yet active and no speed has been
programmed.
Temporary exceeding of the speed
It is possible to accelerate and drive
momentarily at a speed greater than the
programmed speed. The value programmed
flashes.
When the accelerator pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the programmed speed.
Reactivation
- Following deactivation of the cruise control, press this button.
Your vehicle will return to the last
programmed speed.
Alternatively, you can repeat the "first
activation" procedure.
First activation/programming a speed
- Reach the chosen speed by pressing the
accelerator.
- Move the switch up (+) or down (-) to memorise
the speed.
This programmes/activates the reference
speed and the vehicle will maintain this speed.
Deactivation (off)
- Press this button or the brake or clutch pedal.

Steering wheel controls
Changing the programmed speed
There are two methods
of memorising a speed
higher than the previous
one:
Without using the accelerator:
- Move the switch up (+).
A brief press increases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Using the accelerator:
- exceed the memorised speed until the speed required is reached,
- move the switch up (+) or down (-).
To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:
- move the switch down (-).
A brief press decreases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Switching the function off
- Place the ring in the OFF position or switch
off the ignition to switch everything off.
Cancelling the programmed reference speed
When the vehicle becomes stationary, after
switching off the ignition, the system no
longer memorises a speed.
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then
replaced by dashes. Contact a CITROËN
dealer to have the system checked.
Good practice
When changing the programmed reference
speed by means of a maintained press,
pay attention as the speed can increase or
decrease rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
In the event of a steep slope, the cruise
control cannot prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
In any event, the cruise control cannot
replace the need to observe the speed
limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance and responsibility on the part of the
driver.
It is advisable to leave your feet near the
pedals.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fixings on the floor are positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.

Steering wheel controls
Function selected,
displaying of the "Speed Limiter" indicator light.
Function deactivated,
last programmed speed - OFF
(example at 65 mph (107 km/h)). Function activated
(example at 65 mph (107 km/h)).
Vehicle speed above
(example 70 mph (118 km/h)),
the programmed speed is displayed flashing.
Operating fault detected,

OFF - the dashes flash.
SPEED LIMITER "LIMIT"
"This is the selected speed which
the driver does not wish to exceed".
This selection is made with the
engine running while stationary or with the
vehicle moving. The minimum speed which
can be programmed is 20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed of the vehicle responds to the
pressure of the driver's foot as far as the
accelerator pedal point of resistance which
indicates that the programmed speed has
been reached.
However, pressing the pedal beyond this point
of resistance to the fl oor permits exceeding
of the programmed speed. To resume use of
the limiter, simply reduce the pressure on the
accelerator pedal gradually and return to a
speed below that programmed.
The operating actions may be carried out
when stationary, with the engine running,
or with the vehicle moving.
This speed limiter shows the function
selection status on the instrument panel and
displays the programmed speed:

Steering wheel controls
Selecting the function
- Place the ring in the LIMIT position.
The limiter is selected but is not yet
active. The display indicates the last
programmed speed.
Programming a speed
A speed can be programmed without
activating the limiter but with the engine
running.
To memorise a speed higher than the
previous one:
- move the switch up (+).
A brief press increases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:
- move the switch down (-).
A brief press decreases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Activation/Deactivation (off)
Pressing this button once activates the
limiter, pressing the button again deactivates
it (OFF).

46
Steering wheel controls
Exceeding the programmed speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal in order to
exceed the programmed speed will have
no effect unless you press the pedal firmly
beyond the point of resistance .
The limiter is deactivated temporarily and
the programmed speed flashes.
To return to the limiter function, reduce your
speed to below the programmed speed.
Flashing of the speed
The speed flashes:
- following forcing of the accelerator point of resistance,
- when the limiter cannot prevent an increase in the vehicle speed due to the
profile of the road or on a steep descent,
- in the event of sharp acceleration.
Switching the function off
- Place the ring in the OFF position or
switch off the ignition to switch the
system off.
The last programmed speed remains in the
memory.
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then
replaced by dashes.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked.
Good practice
In any event, the speed limiter cannot
replace the need to observe speed limits,
nor can it replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profile of the
road and sharp acceleration and stay in
complete control of your vehicle.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fixings on the floor are positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.

For the day position, the lever is pushed.

For the night position to prevent dazzle,
pull the lever towards you.
Exterior mirrors
The mirror glass is spherical in order to
widen the lateral field of vision. Objects
seen in the mirror are in reality closer than
they appear. Therefore, this must be taken
into account in order to assess the distance
correctly.
Electric controls
The electric control is located on the left-
hand interior side, level with the mirror.
MIRRORS AND WINDOWS
To de-ice the mirrors, press the
rear screen de-icing button.
Select the mirror to be adjusted by turning
the control to the right or to the left, then

ELECTRIC WINDOWS
Electric controls
The electric windows have a safety auto-
reverse function and are associated with
one-touch controls for lowering and raising.
From the driver's seat, the controls placed
on the door operate the vehicle's front
windows.
On the passenger's side, the control
operates the passenger's front window.
One-touch controls
An extended press on the control raises or
lowers the window completely.
Press the control again to stop the window.
Press the control briefly to trigger the
movement of the window.
Manual controls
Turn the window winder located on the door

Gearbox and steering wheel
Good practice
To change gear easily, always press the
clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedal:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
- never fit one mat on top of another.

Avoid leaving your hand on the gear knob
as the force exerted, even if slight, may
wear the internal components of the gearbox
over time.
STEERING WHEEL ADJUSTMENT MANUAL GEARBOX
Reverse gear
Never engage reverse gear before the
vehicle is completely stationary.
The lever should be moved slowly to reduce
the noise on engaging reverse gear.
If your vehicle is fitted with parking
assistance, the system comes into
operation when reverse gear is engaged and
an audible signal is heard.
Refer to the "Rear parking assistance"
section of chapter 3.
When the vehicle is stationary, unlock the
steering wheel by pushing the lever down.
Adjust the depth and height of the steering
wheel, then lock by pulling the lever up fully.
