Hill start assist
System which holds your vehicle temporarily
(approximately 2 seconds) when starting on a
slope, the time it takes to move your foot from
the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
This function is only active when:
- the vehicle is completely stationary, with
your foot on the brake pedal,
- certain conditions on a slope are met,
- with the driver’s door closed.
The hill start assist function cannot be
deactivated.
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle
stationary, the vehicle is held momentarily
when you release the brake pedal:
- provided you are in automated mode
(position A) or in manual mode (position M)
with an electronic gearbox.
Operating fault
If a malfunction of the system occurs, these
warning lamps come on. Contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
On a descending slope, with the vehicle
stationary and reverse gear engaged, the
vehicle is held momentarily when you
release the brake pedal.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held in the hill start assist phase.
If you need to leave the vehicle with
the engine running, manually apply
the parking brake then ensure that the
parking brake warning lamp is on (not
flashing) in the instrument panel.
