Travelling abroad

Halogen headlamps

For motoring in countries that drive

on the other side of the road, it is

necessary to adapt the adjustment of

the dipped beams so as to not dazzle

the drivers of approaching vehicles.

Contact a CITROËN dealer or qualified

workshop.

Xenon headlamps

In some weather conditions (e.g. low

temperature or humidity), the presence

of misting on the internal surface of the

glass of the headlamps and rear lamps

is normal; it disappears after the lamps

have been on for a few minutes.

The design of the dipped beam

headlamps allows you to drive in a

country that drives on the other side

of the road, without the need for any

modification.

In the event of the failure of one or more

bulbs, a message advises you to check

the lamp(s) in question.

Visibility

Operation of the rear foglamps is

inhibited with the tailgate open.

Opening the boot when these lamps are

on causes them and their indicator lamp

in the instrument panel to go off.

They do not come back on

automatically when the boot is closed:

they must be switched on again using

the control stalk.

In good or rainy weather, by both day

and night, the front foglamps and the

rear foglamps are prohibited. In these

situations, the power of their beams

may dazzle other drivers. They should

only be used in fog or falling snow.

In these weather conditions, you should

switch on the foglamps and dipped

beam headlamps manually, as the

sunshine sensor may detect sufficient

light.

Switching off the lighting

when switching off the ignition

When the ignition is switched off, all of the

lamps switch off immediately, except for the

dipped beam headlamps if automatic guide-

me-home lighting is activated.

Do not forget to switch off the front and

rear foglamps when they are no longer

necessary.

To reactivate the lighting control stalk, turn

the ring A to position "0" - lighting off, then

to the position of your choice.

If the lighting is switched on manually after

switching off the ignition, there is an audible

signal when a front door is opened to warn

the driver that they have forgotten to switch

off the vehicle's lighting, with the ignition off.

They switch off automatically after a period

which depends on the state of charge of the

battery (entry to energy economy mode).

Manual guide-me-home

lighting

Side markers for the vehicle by illumination of

the sidelamps on the traffic side only.

The temporary illumination of the dipped beam

headlamps after the vehicle's ignition has been

switched off makes the driver's exit easier when

the light is poor.

ignition, operate the lighting control stalk up

or down depending on the traffic side (for

example: when parking on the left; lighting

control stalk upwards; the right hand

sidelamps are on).

With the ignition off, "flash" the headlamps

using the lighting stalk.

This is confirmed by an audible signal and

illumination of the corresponding direction

indicator warning lamp in the instrument panel.

To switch off the parking lamps, return the

lighting control stalk to the central position.

ꢀ

A further "headlamp flash" switches the

function off.
