proximity sensors, installed in the rear
bumper.
It detects any obstacle (e.g. person, vehicle,
tree, fence) which enters the field behind the
vehicle during the manoeuvre.
However, it will not be able to detect
obstacles located immediately below the
bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks
cone or any other similar object may be
detected at the beginning of the manoeuvre
but may no longer be detected when the
vehicle moves close to it.
The proximity information is indicated by an
audible signal which becomes more rapid as
the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
When the distance between the rear of
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately thirty centimetres, the audible
signal becomes continuous.
This function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed.
You are advised to obtain a towbar
recommended by CITROËN and have it
installed by a professional.
If anomalies are detected on engaging
reverse gear, the warning light comes on,
possibly accompanied by a message on the

The ventilation outlets located at the base
of the windscreen and the side vents for the
side windows increase the effectiveness of
the de-icing and demisting. Do not obstruct
these eight air outlets.
The manual air conditioning consists of the
pollen filter and air recirculation.
The pollen filter permits continuous and
effective filtering of dust.
The air recirculation (which can be activated
by the driver or the passenger) isolates the
passenger compartment from the exterior
atmosphere. However, this position should
only be used temporarily, the norm is to
drive with the control positioned with the
exterior air intake open.
Direct the control to this air
distribution setting.
For faster and more effective
de-icing and demisting of the
windscreen:
- increase the air flow setting,
- move the exterior air intake
control temporarily to air
recirculation.
Returning to the exterior air intake
position permits renewal of the air
in the passenger compartment.
This function only operates when
the engine is running. Pressing
this button activates the rapid
demisting/de-icing of the rear
screen and mirrors. This function switches
off automatically to prevent an excessive
consumption of energy. It switches off when
the engine is switched off. Pressing this
button switches the function off.

CORRECT USE OF THE AIR
Operate the air conditioning system for
VENTS
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in perfect working order.
Have the filter elements (air filter and
passenger compartment filter) replaced
regularly. If you drive in a dusty environment,
have them replaced twice as often.
It is normal that the condensation created by
the air conditioning system results in a flow
of water which may form a puddle under the
vehicle when parked.
If the system does not produce cold air, do
not use it and contact a CITROËN dealer .
In order to be effective, the air conditioning
should only be used with the windows
closed. However, if the interior temperature
remains high after a prolonged period
parked in the sun, do not hesitate to
ventilate the passenger compartment for a
few minutes.
For even air distribution, ensure that the
exterior air intake grille located at the base
of the windscreen is not obstructed and that
the side and central vents, the air outlets on
the floor and the air extractor at the rear are
open.
The air conditioning is useful in all seasons
as it eliminates condensation and air
humidity.
For optimum distribution and diffusion of hot
or cool air in the passenger compartment,
there are:
- 2 adjustable central vents,
- 2 adjustable and closing side vents,
- 2 vents directed towards the floor of the
vehicle.
