is designed for use on motorways and dual carriageways, operating only
above speeds of approx. 80 km / h.

lights up.
A second press on button 1 deactivates the function, the warning lamp on
the button goes out.
When you start the engine, the mode (activated/deactivated) selected when
you stopped the engine is retained.

of your seat :
On the right hand side if you cross a lane marking to the right.

The system does not alert you if one of your direction indicators is operating and for approx. 20 seconds after the

panel comes on and you hear a sound signal. Contact a CITROËN dealer.
