Hill start assist
System which keeps your vehicle immobilised
temporarily (approximately 2 seconds) when
starting on a gradient, the time it takes to
move your foot from the brake pedal to the
accelerator pedal.
This system only operates when:
- the vehicle is completely stationary, with
your foot on the brake pedal,
- certain gradient conditions are met,
- with the driver’s door closed.
The hill start assist system cannot be
deactivated.
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle
stationary, the vehicle is held for a
momentarily when you release the brake
pedal:
- provided you are in first gear or neutral with
a manual gearbox,
- provided you are in position
d
or
M
with an
automatic gearbox.
Operation
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, apply the parking brake
manually then ensure that the parking
brake warning lamp and the warning
lamp
P
in the lever of the electric
parking brake control are on fixed (not
flashing).
Operating fault
If a fault in the system occurs, these warning
lamps come on. Contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop to have the system
checked.
