Driving
The following situations may interfere
with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
Deactivation/Activation
– Insufficient contrast between the road
surface and the verge or hard shoulder
(e.g. shade).
– Lane markings worn, hidden (snow, mud)
or multiple (roadworks, etc.),
– Close proximity to the vehicle in front (lane
markings may not be detected).
– Roads that are narrow, winding.
This system warns the driver of a potential
danger posed by the presence of another vehicle
(car, lorry, motorcycle) in the vehicle's blind
spots (areas hidden from the driver's field of
vision) using sensors located on the sides of the
bumpers.
► Press this button to deactivate/reactivate the
system at any time.
Deactivation is signalled by the lighting of
the indicator lamp in the button and this
warning lamp on the instrument panel.
The system is automatically reactivated every
time the ignition is switched on.
Risk of undesirable operation
The system should be deactivated in the
following situations:
– When changing a wheel or working near a
wheel.
– Towing or with a bicycle carrier on a towing
device, especially with trailer not plugged in or
not approved.
– Road in poor condition, unstable or with very
poor grip (risk of aquaplaning, snow, ice).
– Adverse weather conditions.
– Driving on racing circuits.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction,
these warning lamps light up on
the instrument panel, accompanied by the
display of a message and an audible signal.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the
side in question:
– fixed, immediately, when being overtaken;
– flashing, after a delay of about one second,
when overtaking a vehicle slowly, and when the
direction indicator is used.
– Driving on a rolling road.
Blind spot monitoring
