Citroen C2 (2008 year). Instruction — part 4

C R U I S E C O N T R O L

Cruise control must only be used where the trafﬁ c conditions permit driving at a constant speed.
Do not use it on congested roads or when the weather or the road conditions are poor.

This driving assistance function allows you to drive at the speed of your
choice without the need to action the accelerator.
This device is active at speeds above approx. 40 km/h (25 mph), in the

higher gears only.
The button A for cruise control is located on the lighting control stalk.
Remark: The information relating to the cruise control is displayed in
the instrument panel screen at B. This display causes the trip computer
information to disappear (if it is shown on the instrument panel).

To select the function

Turn the control 1 to the "CRUISE" position.

When you select the function via control 1, no speed
has yet been memorised.

To select a cruise speed

Accelerate to the desired speed, then give a short press on button 2 or
button 4.

The cruise speed is then memorised. It is shown in the
display on instrument panel B.

You can then release the accelerator pedal. The vehicle will automatically
keep to that chosen speed.
Remark: The vehicle speed may vary slightly from that memorised.

C R U I S E C O N T R O L

Temporary override of the cruise speed

While cruise control is in operation, it is always pos-
sible to go above the cruise speed simply by pressing
the accelerator pedal (for example to overtake another

vehicle). The speed displayed ﬂ ashes. You have only

to release the accelerator pedal to return to your cruise
speed.
Remark: If during cruise control the system cannot keep
to the cruise speed (e.g. on a steep descent), then the

speed ﬂ ashes. If necessary, brake to curb your speed.

Adjustment of the memorised speed while
cruise control is in operation

To adjust the memorised speed, displayed in zone B,
press:

Button 4 to increase the speed.
Button 2 to decrease the speed.

Remark: Successive presses will modify the cruise
speed in steps of 1 km/h and a continuous press in

steps of 5 km/h (3 mph).

Disengagement of the memorised cruise speed.

Either by pressing the brake pedal or the clutch
pedal.
Or by the ESP system being active.
Or by pressing button 3.

Note: Cruise control is deactivated if the gear lever is in

Reactivation of cruise control

By recalling the memorised speed:
Following a disengagement, press on control 3.
Your vehicle automatically resumes the memorised
cruise speed, which then displays on the screen in
instrument panel B.
By selecting the current speed:
Give a short press on button 2 or 4, once the
desired speed is reached.
The information "OFF" then disappears from the
display.

If the memorised cruise speed is higher than the current
speed, the vehicle will accelerate to match it.

To cancel the function

By moving the control from the "CRUISE" position
to the 0 position.
Or stop the engine.

The speed that was chosen is no longer memorised.
Remark:
While cruise control is in operation, the displayed speed

ﬂ ashes if the memorised speed is exceeded.
If there is a malfunction, either the memorised speed or

the dashes "- - -" will ﬂ ash and the warning lamp "OFF"

will come on permanently in the display.
Contact a CITROËN dealer.

•

These actions bring up the informa-
tion "OFF" in the instrument panel
display.

These actions do not cancel the cruise speed which
remains displayed.

The driver still has to remain attentive
and in complete control of his vehicle.
You are recommended to keep your feet
within range of the pedals.

S P E E D L I M I T E R

This driving assistance function enables you to select a maximum speed
that you wish not to exceed. This must be greater than 30 km/h (approx.
20 mph).
Control A for the speed limiter is situated below the lighting/signalling
control stalk.
Remark: The information relating to the speed limiter is displayed in
the instrument panel screen at B. This display causes the trip computer
information to disappear (if it is shown on the instrument panel).

To select the function

Turn control 1 to position "LIMIT".

On selection of the function via control 1, the last speed
memorised is displayed.

To adjust the maximum speed

When the engine is running, you can adjust the memorised speed by either
short presses or long presses on:

Button 4 to increase the memorised speed.
Button 2 to decrease the memorised speed.

Remark: Successive presses will modify the cruise speed in steps of 1 km/h

and a continuous press in steps of 5 km/h (3 mph).

Activation of the maximum speed

As the desired maximum speed is displayed, press control 3 to activate the
speed limitation.

•
•

The information "OFF" then disappears from the display.

While the function is active, actioning the accelerator pedal will not permit
the programmed speed to be exceeded, unless you press the pedal hard
down past the tight spot. See "Temporary override of the maximum speed".
Remark: The vehicle speed may vary slightly from that memorised.

S P E E D L I M I T E R

Disengagement of the maximum speed

Press button 3 located on the end of control A.

This action causes the information "OFF" to appear in the instrument panel screen.
The memorised speed remains displayed and is not cancelled.

Temporary override of the maximum speed

At any time, it is possible to go above the memorised maximum speed by pressing the accelerator pedal hard down
past the tight spot.
While the memorised speed is being exceeded, the displayed speed ﬂ ashes.
You have only to release the accelerator pedal to return below the maximum speed, to restore the function.
Remark: If during speed limitation the system cannot keep to the maximum speed (especially on a steep descent or

if you accelerate too hard), the speed ﬂ ashes. Adapt your speed as necessary.
The function will re-engage when your speed has returned below the desired maximum.

To cancel the function

By moving the control from position "LIMIT" to position 0.
Or stop the engine.

The speed that you chose is memorised.
If there is a malfunction, the memorised speed will ﬂ ash and the warning lamp "OFF" will come on permanently in

the display. Contact a CITROËN dealer.

If there is a malfunction, the memorised speed will ﬂ ash and the warning lamp

•

A ﬂ oor covering that is not recommended by CITROËN may slide underneath the accelerator pedal

and thus prevent the tight spot from being crossed.
It will then be impossible to exceed the chosen speed, except by an action on the controls under
the steering wheel.
The driver still has to remain attentive and in complete control of his vehicle.

P A R K I N G A S S I S T A N C E

Proximity sensors are located in
the rear bumper of your vehicle.
When you are manœuvring in
reverse gear at a speed of less
than around 10 km/h (approx.

6 mph), they inform you of the pres-

ence of any obstacle located within
their detection zone, by means of:

An audible signal emitted by
the rear loudspeakers on the
LH and/or RH side.
Display of the outline of
your vehicle with shading
corresponding to the area
where an obstacle is detected.

As the vehicle approaches the
obstacle, the sound signal becomes
more and more urgent and the
shaded areas are displayed closer
and closer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is less than

around 25 centimetres from the

vehicle, the sound signal becomes
continuous

with

display

"WARNING" panel on the screen.

•

Operation

When you engage reverse gear,

a sound signal conﬁ rms to you that

the system is active. The outline of
your vehicle appears on the screen.
Any obstacles situated to the rear
of your vehicle can be detected.
Remarks:

The proximity sensors cannot
detect objects that are
immediately under or over the
bumpers.
A thin object such as a spike,
a bollard or similar, can only
be detected at the start of the
manœuvre but not when the
vehicle arrives close up to it.
In poor weather or in winter,
you need to ensure that the
sensors are not covered with
mud or with ice or snow.
This system in no way replaces
vigilance and responsibility on
the part of the driver.

•

Activation/Deactivation

You can activate/deactivate the
parking assistance by pressing
button 1. When the parking assis-
tance is inactive, the warning lamp
on button 1 is lit up.
Activation/deactivation of the parking
assistance is memorised when you
stop the vehicle.
Remark: The system is deactivated
automatically if a trailer is attached
to the vehicle.
The ﬁ tting of the towbar should

be carried out by the CITROËN

The ﬁ tting of the towbar should

Locking from the inside

A press on the control A operates
the electric central locking and
unlocking, provided all the doors
are closed.
It is still possible to open the doors
from the inside.
If one of the doors or the tailgate
is open or not properly closed, the
central locking does not operate.

The warning lamp associated with the control A signals 3 statuses:

lt ﬂ ashes when the ignition key is in the stop position or when the key is

not detected and the doors are locked.
It lights up when the ignition key is in the "accessories" position or
"ignition + engine running" or starter position and if the doors are locked.
It goes out when the doors are not locked.

Note: Control A is inactive if the vehicle has been locked using the remote
control or the key.

Anti-theft

In all cases, as soon as the vehicle is moving above a speed of 10 km/h
(approx. 6 mph), the tailgate locks automatically. The tailgate unlocks when
a door is opened or when the interior locking/unlocking control is actioned.

Anti-theft protection

On starting the vehicle, the system automatically locks the doors as soon as
you reach approximately 10 km/h (approx. 6 mph).
Note: If a door has been opened, this will lock again automatically when the
vehicle reaches approx. 10 km/h (approx. 6 mph).

Activation/Deactivation of the function

After switching on the ignition, give a long press on the central unlocking
button until a message is displayed.

Air inlet

Check that the exterior grille for the air inlet, at the
bottom of the windscreen, is clean and free of dead
leaves, snow, etc.
If washing the vehicle with a high pressure jet, avoid
targeting the air inlet zone.

Air vents

The air vents to the face (except the central air vent) have

grilles for orienting the ﬂ ow of air (up-down, right-left).

Air circulation

For your comfort we advise you to maintain a proper
distribution of air within the cabin, both at the front and
at the rear.
Air outlets are also located on the central console
close to the gear lever, to enhance comfort for the rear
passengers.

Pollen ﬁ lter – Odour ﬁ lter

Your installation has a ﬁ lter for keeping out dust.
This ﬁ lter has to be changed according to the vehicle

maintenance schedule. See "Maintenance Guide".

Air conditioning

Whatever the time of year, even in cool weather the
air conditioning is useful in removing humidity and
misting.
To keep the air conditioning compressor well sealed, it
is essential to operate the air conditioning at least once
in every month.
To be effective, the air conditioning should only be used
with the windows closed.
If you are towing a heavy trailer and outside tempera-
tures are high, the air conditioning may be temporarily
paused if the engine cooling requires this.
Water arising from condensation in the air conditioning
system is evacuated through a hole provided for this
purpose; a pool of water may thus form underneath the
vehicle when stationary.
You are advised to have the air conditioning system
checked on a regular basis. See "Maintenance Guide".
The air conditioning operates by using power from
the engine. This results in a slight increase in fuel
consumption.

Demisting - deicing of the
windscreen and front side
windows

Place the controls for temperature and

air ﬂ ow on maximum.

Close the central air vents.
Operate the air conditioning.

Note: You should not be in air recirculation.
