Safety

Electronic stability control (ESC)

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) incorporating

the following systems:

Definitions

Anti-lock braking system (ABS)

and electronic brake force

distribution (EBFD)

These systems improve the stability and

manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking

and contribute towards better control in

corners, in particular on poor or slippery road

surfaces.

Traction control (TRC)

-

anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the

electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),

emergency braking assistance,

traction control (TRC),

This system optimises traction in order to limit

wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving

wheels and on the engine. It also improves

the directional stability of the vehicle on

acceleration.

-

dynamic stability control (DSC).

The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of

emergency braking.

The electronic brake force distribution system

manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.

Dynamic stability control (DSC)

If there is a difference between the path

followed by the vehicle and that required by the

driver, this system monitors each wheel and

automatically acts on the brake of one or more

wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle

to the required path, within the limits of the laws

of physics.

6

Emergency braking assistance

In an emergency, this system enables you to

reach the optimum braking pressure more

quickly and therefore reduce the stopping

distance.

It is triggered according to the speed at which

the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a

reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an

increase in the effectiveness of the braking.

107

Safety

Operation

Anti-lock braking system (ABS)

and electronic brake force

distribution (EBFD)

When changing wheels (tyres and rims),

make sure that these are approved for

your vehicle.

Normal operation of the ABS may make

itself felt by slight vibration of the brake

pedal.

Illumination of this warning lamp,

accompanied by an audible signal,

indicates that there is a fault with

the ABS system, which could cause

loss of control of the vehicle when

braking.

In emergency braking, press

very firmly without releasing

the pressure.

Drive carefully at reduced speed, and contact a

CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

Dynamic stability control (DSC)

and traction control (TRC)

Illumination of this warning lamp,

accompanied by an audible signal,

indicates that there is a fault with the

electronic brake force distribution

(EBFD), which could cause loss of

control of the vehicle when braking.

Activation

These systems are activated automatically

each time the vehicle is started.

As soon as they detect a problem of grip or

trajectory, these systems act on the operation if

the engine and brakes.

You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified

workshop as soon as possible.

Activation of the DSC system is

signalled by the flashing of this

indicator lamp in the instrument panel,

indicates a fault with the system.

In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle

which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft

ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate the

DSC and TRC systems, so that the wheels can

spin freely and regain grip.

The TRC and DSC control systems are

reactivated automatically every time the engine

is started.

F

Press the button again to

reactivate it manually.

Drive carefully at reduced speed and contact

a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to

have the system checked.

However, it is recommended that these

systems be reactivated as soon as possible.

When the TRC system only is deactivated, it is

reactivated as the vehicle's speed increases.

Deactivation of the TRC system only

The TRC and DSC systems offer

increased safety in normal driving, but

should not encourage the driver to take

extra risks or drive at high speed.

The correct operation of these

systems depends on observation of

the manufacturer's recommendations

regarding the wheels (tyres and rims),

the braking components, the electronic

components and the assembly and

repair procedures used by CITROËN

dealers.

Safety

Active City Brake

Active City Brake is a driving assistance system

that aims to avoid a frontal collision or reduce

the speed of an impact if the driver does not

react or reacts too late (brake application too

late).

Principle

Conditions for activation

Active City Brake only operates if the following

conditions are met:

●

the engine is running,

the vehicle is in a forward gear,

to trigger the pre-collision alert:

-

the speed is between 9 and 87 mph

(15 and 140 km/h),

This system is designed to improve

driving safety.

-

the difference in speed between your

vehicle and the one ahead is more than

about 9 mph (15 km/h),

It remains the driver's responsibility to

continuously monitor the state of the

traffic and to assess the distances and

relative speeds of other vehicles.

Active City Brake can in no

●

for braking assistance:

-

the speed is between about 18 and

50 mph (30 and 80 km/h),

the difference in speed between your

vehicle and the one ahead is more than

about 18 mph (30 km/h),

Using a laser sensor and a camera located at

the top of the windscreen, this system detects

a vehicle running in the same direction or

stationary ahead of your vehicle.

When necessary, the vehicle's braking system

is operated automatically to reduce the speed

of impact or to help avoid a collision with the

vehicle ahead.

circumstances replace the need for

vigilance on the part of the driver.

-

for automatic pre-collision braking:

-

Never look at the laser sensor through

an optical instrument (magnifying glass,

microscope...) at a distance of less than

10 centimetres: risk of eye injury.

the speed is between about 6 and

50 mph (10 and 80 km/h),

the difference in speed between your

vehicle and the one ahead is more than

about 6 mph (10 km/h),

-

●

the braking assistance systems (ABS,

EBFD, EBA) are not faulty,

the trajectory control systems (TRC, DSC)

are not deactivated or faulty,

the vehicle is not in a tight corner,

the system has not been triggered during

the previous 10 seconds.

Automatic braking occurs later than if

done by the driver, so as to intervene

only when there is a high risk of

collision.

●

110

Safety

Operation

Three levels of operation are possible:

The automatic braking may bring the vehicle to

a complete stop if the situation requires it.

●

Pre-collision alert: if a risk of collision

with a vehicle is detected, a warning lamp

comes on in the instrument panel together

with an audible signal to encourage the

driver to make an avoiding manoeuvre. The

thresholds for triggering the alert can be set.

Braking assistance: increases the

braking started by the driver, only if a risk

of collision is detected.

The triggering of the system may cause

the engine to stall, unless the driver

depresses the clutch pedal quickly

enough during automatic braking.

●

Automatic pre-collision braking: when

your vehicle is too close to or closing

too quickly on the vehicle ahead of you,

the system automatically operates the

brakes to reduce the speed of impact. A

collision can be avoided automatically if the

difference in speed between your vehicle

and the one ahead is not more than 18 mph

(30 km/h).

6

You are then alerted by the display of

this warning lamp, accompanied by

an audible signal.

The brake lamps on your vehicle come on to

warn other road users.

111

Safety

Setting the alert thresholds

Deactivation / Reactivation

Press this button for more than 3 seconds.

This indicator lamp comes on in the

instrument panel and the message

"PCS OFF" is displayed.

The alert thresholds determine how you want to be warned of the imminent risk of collision with the

vehicle ahead of you.

You can choose one of three thresholds:

Press the button again to reactivate the system.

A. "Far", to be given early warning (cautious driving).

B. "Normal".

C. "Close", for a later warning (sporty driving).

This indicator lamp comes on in the

instrument panel.

Press this button repeatedly to cycle

through the thresholds.

The default setting is "Normal".

The system is automatically reactivated every

time the engine is started with the key or the

"START/STOP" button.

112

Safety

Operating limits

The system only detects vehicles (cars, lorries)

that are stationary or moving in the same

direction as your vehicle.

Unwanted triggering of the system

It is possible for the system to detect a risk of

imminent collision and start working, in the

following conditions in particular:

In difficult weather conditions (very

heavy rain, snow, fog, hail...), braking

distances increase, which can reduce

the ability of the system to avoid a

collision.

It does not detect small vehicles

(bicycles, motorcycles), pedestrians or

animals, nor non-reflective stationary

objects.

-

detection of an object located close to the

edge of the road entering a corner (safety

barrier, lamp post or road sign),

detection of a structure located at the top

or bottom of a steep slope (advertising

hoarding, steet lighting),

The driver must therefore remain

particularly vigilant.

-

detection of reflective objects (central

reservation...) in the road,

detection of the upper bar of a bridge or a

traffic light gantry,

passing a vehicle travelling in the other

direction in a corner,

passing a vehicle traveling in the other

direction, at a crossroads, when your

vehicle is turning left or right,

if the vehicle ahead of you sends up water

or snow,

if your vehicle stops very close to an

overhanging wall or other vehicles,

when your vehicle closes rapidly on the

vehicle ahead,

The system is not triggered or is interrupted if

the driver:

Never leave accumulations of snow or

any object projecting above the bonnet

or in front of the roof: this might fall into

the field of vision of the sensor and

generate a detection.

-

accelerates strongly (even if the speed

limiter is on),

-

or turns the steering wheel suddenly

(avoiding manoeuvre).

6

Detection capability is less effective if:

-

you are driving on roads with pronounced

bends and/or on roads in poor condition,

your vehicle is excessively loaded, as

this changes the horizontal attitude of the

vehicle.

-

your vehicle skids.

-

if the vehicle is raised or lowered,

if the vehicle passes through a plastic

curtain,

-

if driving through mist or smoke,

if the sensor is misaligned (following

replacement after a collision).

Front seat belts

Rear seat belts

The front seat belts are fitted with a

pretensioning and force limiting system.

This system improves safety in the front

seats in the event of a front or side impact.

Depending on the severity of the impact, the

pretensioning system instantly tightens the seat

belts against the body of the occupants.

The pretensioning seat belts are active when

the ignition is on.

The rear seats are each fitted with a three-point

seat belt.

Safety

Advice

The driver must ensure that passengers use

the seat belts correctly and that they are all

fastened before setting off.

Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,

always fasten your seat belt, even for short

journeys.

In order to be effective, a seat belt must:

Recommendations for children

-

be tightened as close to the body as

possible,

Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is

less than 12 years old or shorter than one

and a half metres.

Never use the same seat belt to secure more

than one person.

Never allow a child to travel on your lap.

For more information on child seats, refer to

the corresponding section.

-

be pulled in front of you with a smooth

movement, checking that it does not

twist,

Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as

they will not fulfil their role fully.

-

be used to restrain only one person,

not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,

not be converted or modified to avoid

affecting its performance.

The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel

permitting automatic adjustment of the

length of the strap to your size. The seat belt

is stowed automatically when not in use.

Before and after use, ensure that the seat

belt is reeled in correctly.

The lower part of the strap must be

positioned as low as possible on the pelvis.

The upper part must be positioned in the

hollow of the shoulder.

The inertia reels are fitted with an automatic

locking device which comes into operation in

the event of a collision, emergency braking

or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release

the device by pulling the strap firmly and

then releasing it so that it reels in slightly.

In accordance with current safety

regulations, for all repairs on your vehicle's

seat belts, go to a qualified workshop with

the skills and equipment needed, which a

CITROËN dealer is able to provide.

Have your seat belts checked regularly by

a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop,

particularly if the straps show signs of

damage.

Clean the seat belt straps with soapy

water or a textile cleaning product, sold by

CITROËN dealers.

After folding or moving a seat or rear bench

seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned

and reeled in correctly.

In the event of an impact

Depending on the nature and

seriousness of the impact, the

pretensioning device may be deployed

before and independently of the airbags.

Deployment of the pretensioners is

accompanied by a slight discharge of

harmless smoke and a noise, due to the

activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge

incorporated in the system.

In all cases, the airbag warning lamp

comes on.

Following an impact, have the seat belts

system checked, and if necessary replaced,

by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified

workshop.

117

Safety

Airbags

Designed to contribute towards the safety of

the occupants in the event of violent collisions.

The airbags supplement the action of the force-

limiting seat belts.

Front airbags

If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors

record and analyse the front and side impacts

sustained in the impact detection zones:

-

in the case of a serious impact, the airbags

are deployed instantly and contribute

towards better protection of the occupants

of the vehicle; immediately after the impact,

the airbags deflate rapidly so that they

do not hinder visibility or the exit of the

occupants,

System which protects the driver and front

passenger in the event of a serious front impact

in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and

thorax.

The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the

steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag is

fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.

Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone.

-

in the case of a minor or rear impact or in

certain roll-over conditions, the airbags

may not be deployed; the seat belt alone

contributes towards providing your

protection in these situations.

The deployment of an airbag is

accompanied by a slight emission

of smoke and a noise, due to the

detonation of the pyrotechnic charge

incorporated in the system.

Deployment

The airbags are deployed, except the

passenger's front airbag if it is deactivated, in the

event of a serious front impact to all or part of the

front impact zone A, in the longitudinal centreline

of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed

from the front to the rear of the vehicle.

The front airbag inflates between the thorax and

head of the front occupant of the vehicle and the

steering wheel, driver's side, and the dashboard,

passenger's side to cushion their forward

movement.

This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive

individuals may experience slight

irritation.

The detonation noise associated with

the deployment of an airbag may result

in a slight loss of hearing for a short

time.

The airbags do not operate when the

ignition is switched off.

This equipment will only deploy once.

If a second impact occurs (during the

same or a subsequent accident), the

airbag will not be deployed again.

118

Safety

Operating fault

To assure the safety of your child,

the passenger's front airbag must be

deactivated when you install a rearward

facing child seat on the front passenger

seat.

Otherwise, the child would risk being

seriously injured or killed if the airbag

were deployed.

Illumination of this warning lamp in

the instrument panel indicates a fault

with the airbags.

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified

workshop without delay to have the system

checked. The airbags may no longer be

deployed in the event of a serious impact.

In this case, do not install a child seat or seat

an adult on the front passenger seat.

Deactivating the passenger's

front airbag

Reactivating the passenger's

front airbag

Only the passenger's front airbag can be

deactivated.

When you remove a rearward facing child seat,

System which protects the driver and front

passenger in the event of a serious side impact

in order to limit the risk of injury to the chest,

between the hip and the shoulder.

Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone.

Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest

frame, door side.

The lateral airbags may also be

deployed during certain front impacts.

Deployment

They are deployed unilaterally in the event

of a serious side impact applied to all or part

of the side impact zone B, perpendicular to

the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a

horizontal plane and directed from the outside

towards the inside of the vehicle.

The lateral airbag inflates between the hip and

shoulder of the front occupant of the vehicle

and the corresponding door trim panel.

120

Safety

Curtain airbags

System which contributes towards the improved

protection of the driver and passengers in the

event of a serious side impact in order to limit

the risk of injury to the side of the head.

Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and

the upper passenger compartment area.

Operating fault

If this warning lamp comes on in the

121

Safety

Advice

For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the safety recommendations below:

Sit in a normal upright position.

Front airbags

Lateral airbags

Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.

Do not leave anything between the

occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,

object...), nor fix or attach anything close to

the inflation trajectory of the airbags; this

could cause injuries during their deployment.

Never modify the original definition of your

vehicle, particularly in the area directly

around the airbags.

After an accident or if the vehicle has been

stolen or broken into, have the airbag

systems checked.

All work on the airbag system must be

carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a

qualified workshop.

Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its

spokes or resting your hands on the centre

part of the wheel.

Passengers must not place their feet on the

dashboard.

Do not smoke as deployment of the airbags

can cause burns or the risk of injury from a

cigarette or pipe.

Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or

hit it violently.

Use only approved covers on the seats,

compatible with the deployment the lateral

airbags. For information on the range of seat

covers suitable for your vehicle, you can

contact a CITROËN dealer.

For more information on accessories, refer

to the corresponding section.

Do not fix or attach anything to the seat

backs (clothing...). This could cause injury

to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is

deployed.

Do not fit or attach anything to the steering

wheel or dashboard, this could cause

injuries with deployment of the airbags.

Do not sit with the upper part of the body any

nearer to the door than necessary.

Even if all of the precautions mentioned

are observed, a risk of injury or of minor

burns to the head, chest or arms when an

airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. The

bag inflates almost instantly (within a few

milliseconds) then deflates within the same

time discharging the hot gas via openings

provided for this purpose.

Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This

could cause injury to the head if the curtain

airbag is deployed.

If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the

grab handles installed on the roof, they play

a part in securing the curtain airbags.

"ISOFIX" mountings

Your vehicle has been approved in accordance

with the latest ISOFIX regulation.

To secure the child seat to the TOP TETHER:

-

remove and stow the head restraint before

installing the child seat in this seating

position (refit it once the child seat has

been removed),

The seats, represented below, are fitted with

regulation ISOFIX mountings:

-

pass the strap of the child seat over the

top of the seat backrest, between the

apertures for the head restraint rods,

fix the hook of the upper strap to the

anchorage B,

-

tighten the upper strap.

-

a mounting B behind the seat for fixing

the upper strap, referred to as the TOP

TETHER.

The incorrect installation of a child seat

in a vehicle compromises the child's

protection in the event of an accident.

It is identified by a marking.

There are three mountings for each seat:

The TOP TETHER is used to secure the

upper strap of child seats that have one. This

arrangement limits the forward tipping of the

child seat in the event of a front impact.

This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,

reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in your

vehicle.

Follow the instructions for fitting

child seats contained in the seat

manufacturer's installation guide.

For information on the possibilities for installing

ISOFIX child seats in your vehicle, refer to the

summary table.

The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with

two latches which are secured on the two

mountings A.

Recommendations on child seats

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a

vehicle compromises the child's protection in

the event of an accident.

Check that there is no seat belt or seat belt

relation to the child's body to a minimum,

even for short journeys.

For the installation of a child seat using a

seat belt, ensure that this is well tensioned

on the child seat and that it is holding the

child seat firmly against the seat of your

vehicle. If your front passenger seat is
