Steering mounted 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 .
If the limiter is unable to prevent an increase
in the speed of the vehicle because of the
profile of the road or when going down a
step hill, the programmed speed may be
exceeded.
The limiter is deactivated temporarily and
the programmed speed flashes.
To return to the limiter function, reduce your
speed to below the programmed speed.
Switching the system off
- Place the ring in the central O 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 or a qualified
workshop 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.

Mirrors and windows
MIRRORS
Door mirrors
These are divided into two zones:
A - Upper mirror
B - Lower mirror
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.
The shell incorporates the direction indicator
side repeater and the aerials, according to
the equipment available on board (GPS,
GSM, Radio, ...).
Electrical controls
The ignition switch must be in the MAR position.
Turn the control to select the mirror zone.
1 Driver's mirror:
A1 - Upper mirror
B1 - Lower mirror
Then move the control in the direction of the
adjustment required.
2 Passenger mirror:
A2 - Upper mirror
B2 - Lower mirror
Then move the control in the direction of the
adjustment required.

SAFETY
PARKING BRAKE HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
Press this button, the direction indicators
flash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
The hazard warning lamps should only be
used in dangerous situations, when stopping
in an emergency or when driving in unusual
conditions. Applying
Pull the parking brake lever up to immobilise
your vehicle.
Check that the parking brake is applied
firmly before leaving the vehicle. Pull on the parking brake lever,
only
with the vehicle stationary .
Releasing
Pull the lever and press the button to lower
the parking brake lever. In the exceptional case of use of the
parking brake when the vehicle is
moving, apply the brake by pulling gently
to avoid locking the rear wheels (risk of
skidding).
If the parking brake is still on or has not
been released properly, this is indicated
by this warning lamp which comes on on
the instrument panel.
When parking on a slope, direct your wheels towards
the pavement and pull the parking brake lever up.
There is no advantage in engaging a gear after
parking the vehicle, particularly if the vehicle is loaded.

SAFETY
Reactivation
The ASR system is reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched back on.
- Press this button again to reactivate it manually.
Operating fault If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument
panel screen, this indicates a fault
with the ASR system.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Good practice
The DSC and ASR systems offer exceptional
safety in normal driving, but this should not
encourage the driver to take extra risks or
drive at high speed.
The correct operation of these systems
depend on observation of the manufacturer's
recommendations regarding the wheels
(tyres and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and assembly
and repair procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Intelligent Traction Control
System to improve traction on slippery
surfaces (snow, black ice, mud...)
This system checks for situations of difficult
surface adhesion that could make it difficult
to move off or make progress.
In these situations, Intelligent Traction
Control takes over from the ASR system,
by transferring drive to the wheel with the
best grip on the ground to provide the best
traction and trajectory control.
Load inertia control
The true total weight of a commercial vehicle
can vary considerably depending on the load
carried. As a result, the centre of gravity of
the vehicle can move, both longitudinally
and in height.
All such variations have an effect on braking,
traction, the behaviour of the vehicle when
cornering and the tendency to overturn.
Load inertia control estimates the true
total weight of the vehicle by analysing its
behaviour under acceleration and braking.
This system then adapts the operation of
the DSC and ASR systems according to the
weight distribution in the vehicle. In critical
situations, your vehicle than remains more
securely on its intended trajectory.

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM
System which detects the involuntary
crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings
on the ground (continuous or discontinuous
line).
A camera, fitted at the top centre of the
windscreen, monitors the road and triggers
a warning if the vehicle drifts (speed higher
than 35 mph (60 km/h)).
This system operates to its full potential
above all when used on motorways and
main roads.
Switching off
- Press this button to switch off the system, the indicator lamp in the button
comes on.
The status of the system remains in the
memory when the ignition is switched off.
Switching on
- Press this button to switch the system on, the indicator lamp in the button goes
off.
Detection
If a change of direction is detected, you are
alerted by a warning lamp in the instrument
panel and an audible signal:
Operating fault
If a fault occurs with the system,
this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible
message and confirmed by a
message in the screen.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The lane departure warning system
cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need for vigilance and responsibility on
the part of the driver. - fl ashing of the left hand warning
lamp, if drifting to the left,
No warning is transmitted while the direction
indicator is active and for approximately
20 seconds after the direction indicator is
switched off.
A warning may be transmitted if a direction
marking (arrow) or non-standard marking (graffi ti)
is crossed.
The detection may be disrupted:
- if the markings on the ground are worn,
- if there is little contrast between the markings on the ground and the road surface. - fl ashing of the right hand warning
lamp, if drifting to the right.
