Steering mounted controls

When the system is activated, The "Cruise
control" warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel:

CRUISE CONTROL

"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, without use of the
accelerator pedal.

In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be greater
than 18 mph (30 km/h) with at least second
gear engaged on the manual gearbox.

Selecting the function

- Place the ring in the

ON position. The cruise
control is selected but
is not yet active and
no speed has been
programmed.

First activation/
Programming a speed

- Reach the chosen

speed by pressing the
accelerator.

- Move the control up (+) for at least one

second then release it.

This programmes the reference speed. You
can release the accelerator pedal, and the
vehicle will maintain this speed.

Temporarily exceeding
of the speed

It is possible to accelerate
and drive momentarily at
a speed greater than the
programmed speed (for

example to overtake another vehicle).
When the accelerator pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the programmed speed.

Deactivation

- Press the brake or

clutch pedal.

The cruise control is also deactivated if
the ABS or ESP system is invoked.

Steering mounted controls

Reactivation

- Press the accelerator

pedal until a speed close
to the programmed
speed.

Changing the programmed speed

There are two methods of memorising a
speed higher than the previous one:

Switching the function off

- Place the ring in the

OFF position or switch
off the ignition to switch
everything off.

Cancelling the programmed speed

When the vehicle becomes stationary, after
switching off the ignition, the system no
longer memorises a speed.

Operating fault

if the system does not operate correctly, turn
the ring to the OFF position and contact a
CITROËN dealer.

Good practice

When changing the programmed 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.
Never engage neutral while the system is
operating.
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.

- Engage the gear selected when

programming the speed.

- Press the button on the end of the

control.

Your vehicle will return to the last
programmed speed.

Without using the
accelerator:
- move the control up (+).

Using the accelerator:
- exceed the memorised speed until the

speed required is reached,

- move the control up (+) for at least one

second, then release it.

To memorise a speed lower
than the previous one:
- move the control

down (-); the new speed
will be memorised
automatically.

A brief press decreases the speed by 1 mph
(km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed
gradually.

Each brief press increases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed
gradually.

Mirrors and windows

Rear view mirror

The lever located on the lower edge moves
the mirror into two positions.
For the day position , the lever is pushed
forwards.
For the night position to prevent dazzle,
pull the lever towards you.

Door mirrors

The mirror glass is convex 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 side, level with the mirror.

MIRRORS AND WINDOWS

To defrost the mirrors, press the
heated rear screen button.

Select the mirror to be adjusted by turning
the control to the right or to the left, then
move the control in the direction of the
adjustment required.

Manual controls

The right-hand and left-hand manual
controls are located inside the vehicle at the
base of each mirror.
Move the lever in the direction of the
adjustment required.

Mirrors and windows

ELECTRIC WINDOWS

Electric controls

The electric windows have a safety
anti-pinch 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 start the
movement of the window.

Manual controls

Turn the window winder located on the door
trim panel.

Good practice

Always remove the key from the ignition
when leaving the vehicle, even for a short
time.
If the electric window meets an obstacle
during operation, you must reverse the
movement of the window. To do this, press
the control concerned.
When the driver operates the passenger
electric window controls, they must ensure
that no one is preventing correct closing of
the windows.
The driver must ensure that the passenger
uses the electric window correctly.
Be aware of children when operating the
windows.

REAR WINDOWS (COMBI)

To partially open the rear windows, tilt the
lever and push it fully to lock the windows in
the open position.

Gearbox and steering wheel

Good practice

To change gear smoothly, always press the
clutch pedal fully down.

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 cause
wear of the internal components of the
gearbox over time.

MANUAL GEARBOX

Reverse gear

Never engage reverse gear until 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
sensors, the system comes into

operation when reverse gear is engaged,
confirmed by an audible signal.

Refer to the "Rear parking sensors"
section of chapter 3.

STEERING WHEEL ADJUSTMENT

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.

GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR *

System which reduces fuel consumption
by advising the driver to change gear on
vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox.

Operation

The system intervenes only when driving
economically.
The gear change recommendations must
not be considered compulsory, as the
configuration of the road, the amount of
traffic and safety remain determining factors
when choosing the best gear. Therefore,
the driver remains responsible for deciding
whether or not to follow the advice given by
the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.

Example:
- You are in third gear.

- You press the accelerator pedal

moderately.

- The system may suggest that you engage

a higher gear, if appropriate.

The information appears in the form of the
indicator SHIFT in the instrument panel
screen, accompanied by an up arrow for
changing up or a down arrow for changing
down.

In the case of driving which
makes particular demands on the

performance of the engine (firm pressure
on the accelerator pedal, for example,
when overtaking...), the system will not
recommend a gear change.

* According to engine.

Gearbox and steering wheel

ELECTRONIC GEARBOX

The five-speed electronic gearbox offers a
choice between the comfort of automated
operation or the pleasure of manual gear
changing.
This gearbox provides two driving modes:
- an automated mode for automatic control

of the gears by the gearbox and therefore
without any action on the part of the driver,

- a sequential mode for manual changing

of the gears by the driver using the gear
lever.

It consists of:
1. a gear lever 1 on the centre console

for selecting the driving mode, reverse
gear and neutral or for changing gear in
sequential mode,

2. a button 2 to activate or deactivate the

economy programme.

Gear lever gate

All movements of the gear lever are given
from the middle position.
N : neutral.
With your foot on the brake, select this
position to start, by moving the gear lever to
the right and then forwards.
R : reverse gear.
With the vehicle stationary, keep your foot
on the brake pedal and move the gear lever
to the right and then backwards.
M +/-: sequential mode with manual gear
changing.
Make a long push to the left on the lever to
select this mode, then:
- push towards + to change up,

- push towards - to change down.

Displays in the instrument panel

AUTO. Comes on when automated mode
is selected; it goes out when changing to
sequential mode.
E. It comes on when the economy
programme is activated; it goes off on
deactivation.

Moving off

You must press the brake pedal.
Start the engine; the gearbox changes into
neutral automatically.
the gear lever stays in the position selected
before switching off the ignition.
"N" appears in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by an audible signal, to
indicate that there is a difference between
the position of the gear lever and the gear
selected in the gearbox.
Select first gear (move the lever towards + )
or reverse (position R ).
Release the parking brake.
Remove your foot from the brake pedal and
then accelerate away.
"1" or "R" appears in the instrument panel
screen.

It is also possible to move off in 2nd
gear on slippery surfaces.

Stopping - Starting on a slope

This gearbox is an electronic gearbox which
does not have a clutch pedal.
Do not use the accelerator pedal to
immobilise the vehicle on a slope, apply
the parking brake instead; failure to
follow this procedure can overheat the
clutch and damage the gearbox.
When moving off on a slope, accelerate
gradually while releasing the parking brake.

By rapidly pushing the accelerator fully
done, the vehicle moves off quickly.

Automated mode

Once you have moved off, you can switch to
automated mode by selecting position A/M .

"AUTO" and the gear engaged
appear in the instrument panel
screen.

The gearbox then operates in auto-active
mode, without any action on the part of the
driver.
It continuously selects the most appropriate
gear depending on the:
- vehicle speed,

- engine speed,

- accelerator pedal position.

To optimise driving comfort and obtain the
most suitable gear, avoid sharp variations in
the pressure on the accelerator pedal.
If you press the accelerator pedal beyond
the point of resistance, the gearbox changes
down for sharper acceleration.

Stopping the vehicle

Before switching off the engine, with your
foot on the brake pedal, you should:
- select first gear or reverse.

- apply the parking brake to immobilise

the vehicle.

Temporarily changing gear

You can also request a gear change using
the gear lever.
This action does not deactivate the
automated mode, but allows temporary
use of the sequential mode functions (for
example: for overtaking another vehicle...).
"AUTO" remains displayed in the instrument
panel screen.

"ECO" economy programme

This programme works with the automated
mode to reduce fuel consumption.
Press button E to activate the programme.

Sequential mode

After using the automated mode, you can
return to the sequential mode by selecting
position A /M again.

"E" appears in the instrument
panel screen, next to "AUTO"
and the gear selected by the
gearbox.

The gearbox then selects the best gear for
the speed of the vehicle, the engine speed
and the accelerator pedal position to reduce
fuel consumption.

"AUTO" disappears and the
gears engaged appear in
succession in the instrument
panel screen.

t is not necessary to take your foot off the
accelerator pedal to change the gear.
The gear change requests are only carried
out if the engine speed permits it. The
system gives an audible signal if a gear
change is not possible.
At low speeds, when approaching a stop
or traffic lights for example, the gearbox
changes down to first gear automatically.

Release the brake pedal after the display
of the gear engaged has disappeared
from the instrument panel screen.

Never leave the vehicle with the
gearbox in neutral (position N ). In

this case, there is an audible signal on
switching off the ignition (ignition key in
the STOP position).

Reinitialisation

Turn the ignition key to the MAR position.
Within ten seconds, the gear engaged should
appear in the instrument panel screen.
Otherwise, turn the ignition key to the
STOP position and wait until the instrument
panel screen goes off.
Turn the ignition key to the MAR position
again.

The illumination of this warning
lamp, accompanied by a message
in the instrument panel screen,
indicates incorrect use of the
gearbox by the driver.

With the ignition on, the flashing this warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and
a message in the instrument panel screen,
indicates a fault with the gearbox.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer.

If the problem persist, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer.

Never select neutral N while the vehicle
is moving.

Only engage reverse gear R with the vehicle
immobilised and the brake pedal pressed.
You risk damaging the gearbox if you
press the accelerator and brake pedals
simultaneously.

Back-up mode - Slow move off

This procedure should be applied if pressing
the brake pedal is not recognised by the
system, or if the gearbox has fault on
starting the engine.
Press the brake pedal firmly.
Turn the ignition key to the AVV position for
at least seven seconds.
The engine starts.
The system is in back-up mode; the gearbox
will not go beyond the 3 rd gear engaged and
automated mode is not available.

If the engine does not start, have the
system checked by a CITROËN dealer.

Operating fault

In the event of a prolonged stop with
the engine running, it is recommended

that the gearbox be put into neutral
(position N ).

With the vehicle stationary, the engine
running and first, second or reverse

gear engaged, the gearbox changes to
neutral automatically, accompanied by
an audible signal, in the following
circumstances:
- no action on the accelerator or brake

pedals for at least 3 minutes,

- brake pedal applied for more than

10 minutes,

- driver's door opened and no action on the

accelerator or brake pedals for at least
1.5 seconds,

- a gearbox fault.

When towing your vehicle, ensure that
the gearbox is in neutral (position N ).

Gearbox and steering wheel

HILL START ASSIST

An integral part of the ESP system, it
faciltates starting on a gradient by keeping
your vehicle immobilised temporarily
(approximately 2 seconds), the time it takes
to move your foot from the brake pedal to
the accelerator pedal.
This function is only active when:
- the vehicle is completely stationary, with

your foot on the brake pedal,

- the engine is running,

- the gradient is steeper than 5 %.

Operation

On a slope, with engine running and the
vehicle stationary, the vehicle is held
for a brief moment when you release the
brake pedal:
- provided you are in first gear or neutral

with a manual gearbox,

- provided you are in position A or M with

an electronic gearbox,

On a descending slope, with the vehicle
stationary, the engine running and reverse
gear engaged, the vehicle is held for a brief
moment when you release the brake pedal.

After 2 seconds, if the vehicle has not
moved off, the system is deactivated

automatically by gradually reducing the
brake pressure. During this phase, the
characteristic sound of brakes being
released will be heard, indicating the
imminent movement of the vehicle.

Do not leave the vehicle while it is
being held in the hill start assist phase.

If you need to leave the vehicle while the
engine is running, apply the parking brake
manually. Then ensure that the parking
brake warning lamp is on (not flashing) in
the instrument panel.

Operating fault

If a fault occurs with the system,
these warning lamps come on
in the instrument panel. Contact
a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked.

In STOP mode of Stop & Start, hill start
assist is inactive.

- with a manual gearbox , with the vehicle

stationary, put the gear lever into neutral,
then release the clutch pedal,

- with an electronic gearbox , with the

vehicle stationary, hold the brake pedal
down or put the gear lever into position N .

Special cases: STOP mode unavailable

The STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,

- the heated rear screen is on,

- the windscreen wiper is on fast wipe,

- reverse gear is engaged,

- some special conditions (battery

charge, engine temperature, particle
filter regeneration, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a system.

In this case, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by the "S" warning
lamp, which flashes for a few
seconds, then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.

STOP & START

The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode -
during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic
jams, or other...). The engine restarts
automatically - START mode - as soon as
you want to move off. The restart takes
place instantly, quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions and offers the comfort of
complete silence when stationary.

Operation

Going into engine STOP mode

The "S" warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:

Automatic stopping of the engine is
only possible after the vehicle has

exceed a speed of about 6 mph (10 km/h),
to avoid repeated stopping of the engine
when driving slowly.

In the STOP mode Stop & Start, hill
start assist is inactive.

Never leave your vehicle with out first
turning off the ignition with the key.

Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key.

Gearbox and steering wheel

Special cases: START invoked
automatically

The START mode is invoked automatically
when:
- the vehicle's is free wheeling on a slope,

- the windscreen wiper is on fast wipe,

- the engine has been stopped for more

than 3 minutes with Stop & Start,

- some special conditions (battery charge,

engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a system.

Good practice

With a manual gearbox in STOP mode, if
a gear is engaged without fully depressing
the clutch pedal, a warning lamp comes on
or a message is displayed in the instrument
panel asking you to fully depress the clutch
pedal to restart the engine.
With the engine stopped in STOP mode,
if the driver unfasten's their seat belt and
opens a front door, the engine can only
be restarted using the ignition key. This is
indicated by an audible signal, accompanied
by flashing of the service warning lamp and
a message in the instrument panel screen.
If following an automatic restart in START
mode, the driver takes no action on the the
vehicle during the next 3 minutes, the system
stops the engine defi nitively. The engine can
then only be restarted using the key.

Going into engine START mode

The "S" warning lamp goes off and
the engine starts:

- with a manual gearbox , depress the

clutch pedal,

- with an electronic gearbox :

gear lever in position A or M , release

the brake pedal,

or gear lever in position N and the brake

pedal released, move the gear lever to
position A or M ,

or engage reverse gear.

In this case, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by the "S" warning
lamp, which flashes for a few
seconds, then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.

If the engine stops automatically when
the vehicle is on a slope, as hill start

is only active with the engine running, it is
necessary to restart the engine by engaging
a forward gear and releasing the brake
pedal.

Deactivation

To give precedence to the control
of the temperature in the passenger
compartment, the Stop & Start
system should be deactivated to
allow continuous operation of the air
conditioning.

The system is reactivated automatically
at every new start using the key.

At any time, press the "S - OFF" switch to
deactivate the system.
This is confirmed by the switch warning lamp
coming on accompanied by a message in
the instrument panel screen.

If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.

Operating fault

Maintenance

In the event of a fault with
the system, the Stop & Start
system is deactivated and the
service warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by a message in the
instrument panel screen.

Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer.
In the event of an operating fault with STOP
mode, it is possible to restart the engine by
depressing the clutch pedal fully and putting
the gear lever into neutral.

Before working under the bonnet, you
must switch off the ignition with the

key to avoid any risk of injury resulting from
automatic operation of START mode.

This system requires a specific battery
with a special specification and technology
(reference numbers available from
CITROËN dealers).
Fitting a battery not listed by
CITROËN introduces the risk of malfunction
of the system.

The Stop & Start system makes use
of advanced technology. Specialist

knowledge is needed for any work on the
system, which can only be assured by
CITROËN dealers.

Reactivation

Press the "S - OFF" switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off and a
message in the instrument panel screen.
