Frequently Asked Questions - DS7 Crossback (2017) CITROEN

How do I start the DS7 Crossback in hybrid mode?
Ensure the traction battery has charge. With the electronic key inside, press the brake pedal and press the START/STOP button. The READY indicator lamp lights up. Use the driving mode selector to choose Electric or Hybrid mode.
What should I do if the DS7 Crossback battery is discharged?
You can jump-start using another 12V battery. Open the bonnet, locate the battery, connect the jumper cables positive to positive, negative to a ground point. Start the donor vehicle, then start the DS7. For hybrid models, the 12V auxiliary battery may need charging separately.
How do I program a favourite radio station on the DS7 touch screen?
Select the Radio application. Tune to the desired station. Press and hold the numbered preset button (1-6) until the station is saved. You can also use the list of presets to assign stations.
Can I install a child seat on the front passenger seat?
Yes, but only if the front passenger airbag is deactivated. Use the key switch in the glove box to set the airbag to OFF. A 'rearward facing' child seat is prohibited when the airbag is ON. Always check the warning lamp.
How do I use the DS Night Vision system?
Activate Night Vision via the touch screen or steering wheel control. The infrared camera detects pedestrians and animals up to 200m ahead. If a risk is detected, a red warning appears on the instrument panel. The system works best at night and below 60 mph (100 km/h).
What does the flashing orange service light mean?
The flashing orange service light indicates that the servicing interval has been exceeded. For BlueHDi Diesel engines, it may be accompanied by the AdBlue warning. Have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible to avoid engine start prevention.
How do I adjust the headlamp beam height?
Use the manual headlamp beam height adjustment wheel located on the dashboard, near the steering wheel. Turn the wheel to set the beam height according to load (0 = low, 3 = high). For vehicles with automatic adjustment, this control is not present.
Can I tow a trailer with the DS7 Crossback?
Yes, the DS7 Crossback can tow up to 1800 kg (petrol) or 2000 kg (diesel) depending on version. A towing device with retractable ball joint is available. Always observe the maximum towed load and use the Trailer Stability Assist (TSA) if equipped.
How do I open the fuel filler flap on the DS7?
The fuel filler flap is located on the right rear side. With the vehicle unlocked, press the flap to open it. For hybrid models, the charging flap is on the left rear side and opens similarly. To lock, press the flap closed until it clicks.
What type of engine oil is recommended for the DS7 Crossback?
Refer to the engine compartment label or maintenance guide. Typically, for petrol engines: 5W-30 or 0W-30 meeting PSA standards. For diesel engines: 5W-30 or 0W-30 with appropriate specifications. Use only ACEA C2/C3 oils for BlueHDi.

The rechargeable hybrid technology combines two sources of energy: that of the petrol engine and that of one or two electric motors (depending on version).

The engine and the motor can operate alternately or simultaneously, according to the driving mode selected and the driving conditions.

The electric power alone provides the mobility of the vehicle in Electric mode, and in Hybrid mode in case of moderate demand. It assists the petrol engine during starting and acceleration phases. The electric power is supplied by a rechargeable traction battery.

7 Overview

Eco-driving

Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise the vehicle's energy consumption (fuel and/or electricity) and CO_2 emissions.

Optimise your use of the gearbox

With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic mode. Do not depress the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.

The gear shift indicator prompts you to engage the most suitable gear. Whenever this indication is displayed on the instrument panel, follow it straight away.

With an automatic gearbox, this indicator appears only in manual mode.

Drive smoothly

Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather than the brake pedal and press the accelerator gradually. These practices help to save on energy consumption, reduce CO_2 emissions and decrease general traffic noise. Favour the use of the "Eco" driving mode by selecting it using the "DRIVE MODE" control. When the traffic is flowing smoothly, select the cruise control.

Control the use of electrical equipment

Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning. At speeds above 31 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents open.

Consider using equipment that can help keep the temperature in the passenger compartment down (e.g. sunroof blind, window blinds).

Unless automatically regulated, switch off the air conditioning as soon as the desired temperature has been reached.

Switch off the demisting and defrosting functions, if they are not managed automatically. Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.

Adapt your use of the headlamps and/or foglamps to the level of visibility, in accordance with current legislation in the country in which you are driving.

Avoid running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter (other than in severe wintry conditions: temperature below -23°C). The vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.

As a passenger, avoid connecting your multimedia devices (e.g. film, music, video game) to help reduce the consumption of energy.

Disconnect all portable devices before leaving the vehicle.

Limit the causes of excess consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle. Place the heaviest items in the boot as close as possible to the rear seats.

Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and minimise wind resistance (e.g. roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer). Preferably, use a roof box.

Remove roof bars and roof racks after use. At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit summer tyres.

Comply with the servicing instructions

Check tyre pressures regularly, with the tyres cold, referring to the label in the door aperture on the driver's side.

Carry out this check in particular:

- before a long journey.

- at each change of season.

- after a long period out of use.

Do not forget the spare wheel and, where applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan. Have your vehicle serviced regularly (e.g. engine oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment filter, etc.). Observe the schedule of operations in the manufacturer's service schedule.

With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system has a fault, your vehicle will emit pollution. Visit a dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible to restore your vehicle's nitrogen oxide emissions to legal levels.

When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after the third cut-out of the nozzle, to avoid overflow. You will only see the fuel consumption of your new vehicle settle down to a consistent average after the first 1,900 miles (3,000 kilometres).

Optimising the driving range (rechargeable hybrid vehicles)

Connect the vehicle as soon as possible. Favour the ECO zone of the power indicator by driving smoothly and at a steady speed.

9 Eco-driving

Anticipate slowing down as much as possible and, if possible, favour decelerations with regenerative braking mode activated (power indicator in the CHARGE zone).

With the vehicle connected, carry out temperature pre-conditioning before setting off. To optimise consumption during a journey:

Programme a destination in the vehicle's GPS navigation system.
- Select the Hybrid driving mode. - Make sure that the battery charge level is close to maximum.
- Do not use the e-Save function while driving. - Use the heating/air conditioning system wisely.

When installing a bicycle carrier on the towing device with connection of the cable to the trailer socket, the motorised operation of the tailgate will be automatically deactivated.

! If using a towing device or bicycle carrier not recommended by the Manufacturer, it is essential to deactivate the motorised operation of the tailgate.

Motorised operation

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Motorised operation - 1

The motorised operation of the tailgate is configured in the Settings > Vehicle touch

screen application.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Motorised operation - 2

There are several ways of operating the tailgate:

A. Using the Keyless Entry and Start system's electronic key
B. Using the exterior tailgate control
C. Using the interior tailgate control
D. Using the control on the dashboard

Opening

▶ A long press on the central button A of the electronic key.
or
▶ A short press on the exterior tailgate control B, with the electronic key on your person.
or
▶ Two consecutive presses on the control D on the dashboard.

i The tailgate opens, either completely by default, or to the position memorised beforehand.

If motorised operation is not activated, these actions release the tailgate (partially-open position).

When the vehicle is locked, the request to open the boot with one of the controls A or B unlocks the vehicle, or only the boot if selective unlocking is activated, prior to the opening of the boot.

Closing

▶ A short press on the interior tailgate control C.

i It is possible to interrupt the operation of the tailgate at any point.

Pressing one of these controls again interrupts the movement that is underway.

Memorising an opening position

To limit the opening angle of the motorised tailgate:

▶ move the tailgate to the desired position manually or by pressing the button.
▶ press button C or the exterior control B for more than 3 seconds (memorisation is confirmed by a brief audible signal).
A new memorisation operation cancels the previous one.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Memorising an opening position - 1

i Memorising is not available until the height of opening is more than or equal to 1 metre between the low position and the high position of the tailgate.

Manual operation

The tailgate can be manoeuvred by hand, even with motorised operation activated.

The tailgate must be stationary.

When opening and closing the motorised tailgate manually, there is no assistance from gas struts. Resistance to opening and closing is therefore entirely normal.

Repeatedly opening and closing the motorised tailgate can cause overheating of its electric motor, after which opening and closing will not be possible.

Allow at least 10 minutes for the electric motor to cool down before operating the tailgate again.

If you are unable to wait, operate it manually.

Manual closing of the motorised tailgate in case of failure

This operation is only necessary in the case of failure of the tailgate motor.

If the failure originates from the battery, it is recommended to recharge it or change it with the tailgate closed.

In this situation, a significant force may be needed to close the tailgate.

▶ Close it gently without slamming, as slowly as possible, by pushing at the centre of the tailgate.

Do not lower the tailgate by pushing at one of its sides - risk of damage!

Precautions in use

• In wintry conditions

To avoid any operating problems, remove the snow or wait until the ice melts before requesting motorised opening of the tailgate.

: When washing

When washing the vehicle in an automatic car wash, do not forget to lock and move away from the vehicle to prevent any risk of unwanted opening.

Hands-free function (Hands-Free Tailgate Access)

With the electronic key on your person, this function allows the motorised tailgate to be opened, closed or stopped via a "kicking" movement under the rear bumper.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Hands-free function (Hands-Free Tailgate Access) - 1

The "Handsfree Trunk Opening" function is configured in the Settings > Vehicle touch application.

! Ensure that you are steady on your feet before performing the "kicking" movement.

OK

Diagram of a car rearview with numbered annotations indicating components of the front panel and sensor placement.

▶ Position yourself behind the vehicle by the number plate and perform a "kicking" movement in the "OK" detection zone. The "kicking" movement must be given forwards, smoothly, not too fast and with a vertical movement from low to high. Raise the foot sufficiently and remove it immediately. Acknowledgement of the "kicking" movement is confirmed by the lighting of the direction indicators.

"Sideward kicking" movements do not work. If the "kicking" movement has not

been detected, wait at least 2 seconds before repeating the movement. Do not perform repetitive "kicking" movements.

If the motorised tailgate has not started to open, check that:

  • the function is activated.
  • the electronic key is on your person, outside the vehicle in the rear recognition area.
  • the "kicking" movement was performed in the detection zone, close enough to the bumper.
  • the foot was removed from the bumper quickly enough.

Automatic locking

It is possible to lock automatically the vehicle using the hands-free function (Hands-Free Tailgate Access).

The "Handsfree Trunk Locking" function is configured in the Settings > Vehicle touch screen application.

When the vehicle is locked, the request to open the tailgate with this function unlocks the vehicle, or only the tailgate if selective unlocking is activated, prior to the opening of the tailgate. Closing the tailgate with the "Hands-Free Tailgate Access" function enables you to lock the vehicle.

Recommendations on the hands-free function (Hands-Free Tailgate Access)

If it does not work, check that the electronic key is not exposed to a source of electromagnetic interference (e.g. smartphone).

The function may be deactivated or affected if there is rain or snow.

The function may not work correctly with a prosthetic leg.

In some circumstances, the tailgate may open or close by itself, particularly when:

  • hitching up or removing a trailer;
  • fitting or removing a bicycle carrier;
  • loading or unloading bicycles on/from a bicycle carrier;
  • depositing or lifting something behind the vehicle;
  • an animal approaches the rear bumper;
  • washing the vehicle;
  • maintenance is performed on the vehicle;
  • accessing the spare wheel.
    To avoid such operating problems, keep the electronic key away from the recognition zone or deactivate the hands-free function.

! Towing device The installation of a towing device may disturb the detection system.

To avoid unintentionally opening the tailgate while operating the towing device:

remove the electronic key from the recognition zone, with the tailgate closed. For more information on the Towing device with quickly detachable towball, refer to the corresponding section.

It is important to ensure that passengers use the electric windows correctly.

Pay particular attention to children when operating the windows.

Be aware of passengers and/or other persons present when closing windows remotely using the electronic key.

Do not put your head or arms through the open windows when the vehicle is moving - risk of serious injury!

Panoramic sunroof

The panoramic sunroof consists of a movable glass panel that slides over the roof and a blind that can be opened independently. Opening the sunroof automatically opens the blind.

▶ To operate the panoramic sunroof or the blind, use the buttons in the roof console.

A B

A. Sunroof control
B. Sunroof blind control

The sunroof or blind can be operated when the ignition is turned on (if the battery is charged enough), with the engine running, in STOP mode of Stop & Start, and up to 45 seconds after turning off the ignition or after locking the vehicle.

Precautions

! Do not put your head or arms through the sunroof while the vehicle is moving - risk of serious injury!
! Ensure that any luggage or accessories carried on the roof bars do not interfere with the movement of the sunroof. Do not place heavy loads on the movable glass panel of the sunroof.

! If the sunroof is wet, following a rain shower or washing the vehicle, wait until it is completely dry before operating it.

Do not operate the sunroof if it is covered by snow or ice - risk of damage!

Use only plastic scrapers to remove snow or ice from the sunroof.

! Regularly check the condition of the sunroof seals (e.g. presence of dust, dead leaves).

If using a car wash, check first that the roof is correctly closed and keep the high-pressure jet at least 30 centimetres from the seals.

! Never leave the vehicle with the sunroof open.

Operation

When opening the sunroof fully, the movable glass moves to a partially open position, then slides over the roof. Any intermediate position is possible.

i Depending on the speed of the vehicle, the partially open position may vary to improve the acoustics.

Before operating the sunroof or blind control buttons, ensure that no object or person might prevent the movement. Be particularly aware of children when operating the sunroof or blind. If something is trapped when operating the sunroof or blind, you should reverse the movement of the sunroof or blind by pressing the control in question. The driver must ensure that passengers use the sunroof and blind correctly.

Anti-pinch system

If the sunroof or blind encounters an obstacle when closing, the movement is automatically reversed.

The roof anti-pinch system is designed to be effective at speeds of up to 75 mph (120 km/h).

Opening/Closing

▶ To open the sunroof or the blind, use the part of the button located towards the rear of the vehicle.
▶ To close the sunroof or the blind, use the part of the button located towards the front of the vehicle.

Operation of buttons

▶ Pressing a button beyond its point of resistance directly opens or closes the sunroof or blind fully.
▶ Pressing the button again stops the current movement.

▶ When holding a button (without going beyond the point of resistance), the movement of the sunroof or blind stops when this button is released.
When the sunroof is closed: pressing once without passing the point of resistance moves it to a partially open position.
When the sunroof is partially open: pressing once without passing the point of resistance opens or closes it fully.

The sunroof and windows, then the blind, can be closed by holding down the door locking control. The manoeuvre stops as soon as the locking control is released.
Closing of the blind is limited by the position of the sunroof: the blind cannot go further than the front of the movable glass. During simultaneous movements of the sunroof and blind, the blind automatically stops or resumes movement depending on the position of the sunroof.

Reinitialisation

Following reconnection of the battery or in the event of a fault or jerky movement of the sunroof or blind, reinitialisation is required.

▶ Check that nothing is interfering with the sunroof or blind and that the seals are clean.
▶ With the ignition on, fully close the sunroof and blind.

▶ Press and hold the front part of button A, until the sunroof and blind move slightly, then hold for a further 1 second before releasing.
▶ Wait 2 seconds and then press and hold the front part of button A. The blind and the sunroof will open and close, one after the other. When both are completely closed again, hold for a further 2 seconds and release.

i If there is an operating fault, restart the whole procedure.

Advice

i Using the ventilation and air conditioning system

To ensure that air is distributed evenly, keep the external air intake grilles at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the air outlets and the air extractor in the boot free from obstructions.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor located on the dashboard; this sensor is used to

regulate the automatic air conditioning system.

▶ Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to keep it in good working order.
▶ If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.

When towing a large load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power, enhancing the towing capacity.

Avoid driving for too long with the ventilation off or with prolonged operation of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and deterioration of the air quality!

If the interior temperature is very high after the vehicle has stood for a long time in the sunshine, air the passenger compartment for a few moments. Put the air flow control at a setting high enough to quickly change the air in the passenger compartment.
i Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly normal.

i Servicing the ventilation and air conditioning system

▶ Ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly.
We recommend using a composite passenger compartment filter. Its specific active additive helps protect against polluting gases and bad smells.
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, have it checked according to the recommendations in the Manufacturer's service schedule.

- Stop & Start

1 The heating and air conditioning systems only operate when the engine is running.

Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start system to maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment.

For more information on the Stop &

Start system, refer to the corresponding section.

Automatic lighting systems - General recommendations

The automatic lighting systems use a detection camera, located at the top of the windscreen.

- Operating limits

1 The system may be disrupted or not work correctly:

- When visibility conditions are poor (e.g. snowfall, heavy rain).

- If the windscreen is dirty, misted-up or masked (e.g. sticker) in front of the camera.

- If the vehicle is facing highly reflective signs or safety barrier reflectors.

The system is not able to detect:

- Road users that do not have their own lighting, such as pedestrians.

  • Vehicles with hidden lighting (e.g. travelling behind a safety barrier on the motorway).
  • Vehicles at the top or bottom of a steep slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.

Maintenance

! Clean the windscreen regularly, particularly the area in front of the camera.

The internal surface of the windscreen can also become misted around the camera.

In humid and cold weather, demist the windscreen regularly.

Do not allow snow to accumulate on the bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could obstruct the camera.

Automatic headlamp dipping

! For more information, refer to the General recommendations for automatic lighting systems.

With the ring of the lighting control stalk in the "AUTO" position and the function activated on the touch screen, this system automatically switches between dipped and main beam headlamps,

This is done by shifting the intensities of the light area in the bends, to better anticipate obstacles and changes in road direction.

This function operates from a certain angle of rotation of the steering wheel and a certain yaw speed.

DS PIXEL LED VISION 3.0

! For more information, refer to the General recommendations for automatic lighting systems.

The DS PIXEL LED VISION 3.0 system has the Adaptive Frontlight System function and also manages the high beam in conjunction with the Automatic headlamp dipping function.

The DS PIXEL LED VISION 3.0 headlamps incorporate three LED modules:

- a "Pixel" module that varies the number of LEDs lit and their intensity according to driving conditions. This module manages the light flows vertically and horizontally.

- two "Low beam" modules whose intensity only varies with the fog mode.

All these LED modules contribute to the lighting in the low beam and high beam positions.

This system automatically adapts the main beam according to the driving conditions, so that optimum illumination is maintained for the driver, without causing a nuisance to other road users.

! The driver remains responsible for the vehicle's lighting, its correct use in the prevailing light, visibility and traffic conditions, and for compliance with driving and vehicle regulations.

Activation/Deactivation

Place the ring of the lighting control stalk in the "AUTO" position.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Activation/Deactivation - 1

This indicator lamp comes on in the instrument panel.

It is configured in the Settings > Vehicle touch screen application.

The state of the system is stored when the ignition is switched off.

When deactivated, the lighting system changes to "Automatic illumination of lamps" mode.

Operation

Using a camera, the system detects the driving conditions (brightness, lights from oncoming or followed vehicles, road turns) and adapts the beams of the main headlamps accordingly. The modules that make up the main beams switch on and off gradually, segment by segment, depending on the driving conditions detected. Nominal main beam lighting is restored as soon as the vehicle is no longer detected by the system.

AUTO If the system is selected but the display on the instrument panel and the alerts are not available, the indicator lamp comes on in grey.

Electronic stability control (ESC)

The electronic stability control programme includes the following systems:

- Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD).

  • Emergency braking assistance (EBA).
  • Anti-slip regulation (ASR).
  • Dynamic stability control (DSC).
  • Trailer stability assist (TSA).

Anti-lock braking system (ABS)/Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD)

These systems enhance the vehicle's stability and handling during braking, and enable greater control while cornering, particularly on poor or slippery road surfaces.

ABS prevents wheel locking in the event of emergency braking.

Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD) manages overall braking pressure on each individual wheel.

When braking in an emergency, depress the pedal very firmly and maintain this pressure.

i Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake pedal.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Anti-lock braking system (ABS)/Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD) - 1

The fixed illumination of this warning lamp signals that there is a fault with the ABS.

The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive carefully at a moderate speed. Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

After an impact

! Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Emergency braking assistance (EBA)

This system reduces the emergency stopping distance, by optimising the braking pressure. It is triggered in relation to the speed at which the brake pedal is depressed. The effect of this is a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an increase in braking efficiency.

Anti-slip regulation (ASR) / Dynamic stability control (DSC)

Anti-slip regulation (or traction control) optimises traction by using engine braking and by applying the brakes on the driving wheels to avoid one or more wheels spinning. It also enhances the vehicle's directional stability.

If there is a difference between the vehicle's trajectory and the path desired by the driver, the dynamic stability control system automatically uses engine braking and the brakes on one or more wheels to return the vehicle to the desired path, within the limits of the laws of physics. These systems are activated automatically every time the vehicle is started.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Anti-slip regulation (ASR) / Dynamic stability control (DSC) - 1

These systems are activated in the event of a problem with grip or trajectory

(confirmed by this warning lamp flashing on the instrument panel).

1 The dynamic stability control is optimised to be able to react later on this vehicle.

Deactivation/Reactivation

In exceptional conditions (e.g. moving a vehicle that is bogged down in mud, stuck in snow, on loose soil), it may prove useful to deactivate the DSC/ASR systems, so that the wheels can move freely and regain grip.

Reactivate the system as soon as the level of grip permits.

Deactivation/reactivation of the ASR system is indicated by this indicator lamp

on the instrument panel coming on/going out and the display of a message.

The ASR system is automatically reactivated every time the ignition is switched off or at speeds over 31 mph (50 km/h)

Reactivation is manual below 31 mph (50 km/h).

Malfunction

In the event of a malfunction, this warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel, accompanied by the display of a message and an audible signal.

Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

ASR/DSC

These systems enhance safety during normal driving, but should not encourage the driver to take extra risks or drive at high speed. It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain, snow, ice) that the risk of loss of grip increases. It is therefore important for your safety to keep these systems activated in all conditions, and particularly in difficult conditions.

Correct operation of these systems depends on compliance with the manufacturer's recommendations relating to the wheels (tyres and rims), braking and electronic components, as well as the assembly and repair procedures provided by dealers.

In order to ensure that these systems remain effective in wintry conditions, the use of snow or all-season tyres is recommended. All four wheels must be fitted with tyres approved for your vehicle.

All tyre specifications are listed on the tyre/paint label. For more information on Identification markings, refer to the corresponding section.

Trailer stability assist (TSA)

When towing, this system reduces the risk of the vehicle or trailer snaking.

Operation

The system is activated automatically when the ignition is switched on. The electronic stability control system (ESC) must not have any faults. The vehicle speed must be between 37 and 99 mph (60 and 160 km/h).

If the system detects that the trailer is snaking, it applies the brakes to stabilise the trailer and reduces engine power, if necessary, to slow the vehicle (indicated by the flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument panel and the brake lamps coming on).

For information on weights and towed loads, refer to the Engine technical data and towed loads section or your vehicle's registration certificate. To ensure safe driving with a Towing device, refer to the corresponding section.

Malfunction

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Malfunction - 1

If a fault occurs, this warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel, accompanied message and an audible signal.

To continue towing a trailer, reduce speed and drive carefully! Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

! The trailer stability control system provides an extra safety feature under normal driving conditions, when following the recommendations for use of trailers and current legislation in force in your country. It must not encourage the driver to take extra risks, such as using a trailer in unsuitable conditions of operation (e.g. excessive load, exceeded nose weight, worn or under-inflated tyres, faulty braking system) or driving at excessive speed. In certain cases, the system may not detect trailer snaking, particularly with a light trailer. When driving on slippery or poor surfaces, the system may not be able to prevent sudden trailer snaking.

Seat belts

Inertia reel

The seat belts are equipped with an inertia reel which allows the strap length to adjust automatically to the shape of the user. The seat belt returns to its storage automatically when it is not used.

The inertia reels are fitted with a device which automatically locks the strap in the event of a collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls

over. It can be released by pulling the strap firmly and then releasing it so that it reels in slightly.

Pyrotechnic pretensioning

This system improves safety in the event of a frontal or side impact.

Depending on the severity of the impact, the pyrotechnic pretensioning system instantly tightens the seat belts against the body of the occupants.

The pyrotechnic pretensioning seat belts are enabled when the ignition is on.

Force limiting system

This system reduces the pressure of the seat belt on the chest of the occupant, thus improving their protection.

In the event of an impact Depending on the nature and seriousness of the impacts, the pyrotechnic device may trigger before and independently of airbag deployment. Deployment of the pretensioners is accompanied by a slight discharge of harmless smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system. In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes on. Following an impact, have the seat belt system checked, and if necessary replaced, by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Not fastened at the front

When the ignition is switched on, the warning lamp and the corresponding indicator lamps light up if the driver and/or the front passenger have not fastened their seat belts.

At a speed greater than 12 mph (20 km/h), these warning lamps flash, accompanied by an increasing audible signal for approximately two minutes. After two minutes, these warning lamps remain on as long as the front seatbelts are not fastened.

Not fastened at the rear

When the ignition is switched on, with the engine running or the vehicle moving at a speed below 12 mph (20 km/h), the warning lamp and the corresponding indicator lamps light up for 1 minute, if one or more rear seat belts are not fastened.

Unfastened

After the ignition is switched on, the warning lamp and the corresponding indicator lamps light up if the driver and/or one or more passengers unfasten their seat belts.

At a speed greater than 12 mph (20 km/h), these warning lamps flash, accompanied by an audible signal for approximately two minutes. After this time, these warning lamps remain on as long as the seatbelts are not refastened.

Advice

! The driver must ensure that passengers use the seat belts correctly and that they are all fastened before setting off.

Wherever seated in the vehicle, you must always fasten the seat belt, even for short journeys.

Do not invert the seat belt buckles, as they will not fulfil their role properly.

To ensure the proper functioning of the belt buckles, make sure that there are no foreign bodies present (e.g. a coin) before fastening. Before and after use, ensure that the seat belt is reeled in correctly.

After folding or moving a seat or rear bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned and reeled in correctly.

Installation

! The lower part of the strap must be positioned as low as possible over the pelvis. The upper part must be positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.

At the front, adjusting the position of the seat belt may require the seat height to be adjusted.

In order to be effective, a seat belt must:

- be tightened as close to the body as possible.

- be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that it is not twisted.

- must only be used to secure one person.

- not show signs of tearing or fraying.

- not be changed or modified, in order to avoid affecting its performance.

Recommendations for children

! Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is less than 12 years old or shorter than 1.5 metres.

Never use the same seat belt to secure more than one child.

Never carry a child on your lap.

For more information on Child seats, refer to the corresponding section.

Maintenance

In accordance with current safety regulations, for all work on your vehicle's seat belts, contact a qualified workshop with the skills and equipment needed, which a dealer is able to provide.

Have your seat belts checked regularly by a dealer or a qualified workshop, particularly if the straps show signs of damage.

Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or a textile cleaning product, sold by dealers.

Airbags

General information

This system is designed to improve the safety of the occupants of the front seats and the rear outer seats in the event of a violent collision. The airbags supplement the action of the seat belts equipped with a force limiting system.

Electronic detectors record and analyse the front and side impacts sustained in the impact detection zones:

- In the event of violent impact, the airbags deploy instantly and help better protect the occupants of the vehicle; immediately after the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly in order not to hinder the visibility or the possible exit of the occupants.

- In the event of a slight impact, a rear impact and under certain rollover conditions, the airbags may not deploy; only the seat belt helps to protect you in these situations.

The seriousness of the impact depends on the nature of the obstacle and the speed of the vehicle at the moment of collision.

! The airbags do not operate when the ignition is switched off.

This equipment will only deploy once. If a second impact occurs (during the same or a subsequent accident), the airbag will not be deployed again.

A. Front impact zone B. Side impact zone

When one or more airbags are deployed, the detonation of the pyrotechnic charge incorporated in the system makes a noise and releases a small quantity of smoke. This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive individuals may experience irritation. The detonation noise associated with the deployment of one or more airbags may result in a slight loss of hearing for a short time.

Front airbags
CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - ! The airbags do not operate when the ignition is switched off. - 4

natural_image Diagram showing four identical circular components with directional arrows, arranged in a grid (no text or symbols)

This system protects the driver and front passenger in the event of a serious front impact, limiting the risk of head and chest injury. The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the steering wheel; the front passenger airbag is fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.

The front airbags are adaptive. In particular, they inflate less firmly in the presence of a smaller occupant, with the seat set in a forward longitudinal position.

Deployment

They deploy, except the front passenger airbag if it is deactivated*, in the event of a serious front impact to all or part of the front impact zone A. The front airbag inflates between the thorax and head of the front occupant of the vehicle and the steering wheel, driver's side, and the dashboard, passenger's side, to cushion their forward movement.

Lateral airbags
AIRBAG

This system protects the driver and front passenger in the event of a serious side impact, limiting the risk of injury to the chest, between the hip and the shoulder. Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest frame, on the door side.

Deployment

The lateral airbags are deployed on one side in the event of a serious side impact applied to all or part of the side impact zone B. The lateral airbag inflates between the chest of the vehicle's occupant and the corresponding door panel.

Curtain airbags

This system helps provide greater protection for the driver and passengers (with the exception of the rear centre passenger) in the event of a serious side impact, in order to limit the risk of injury to the side of the head.

Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and the upper passenger compartment area.

Deployment

It deploys simultaneously with the corresponding lateral airbag in the event of a serious side impact applied to all or part of the side impact zone B. The curtain airbag inflates between the front and rear occupants of the vehicle and the corresponding windows.

Malfunction

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Malfunction - 1

In the event of a malfunction, these warning lamps light up on the

instrument panel. Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked.

The airbags may not be deployed in the event of a serious impact.

In the event of a minor impact or bump at the side of the vehicle or if the vehicle rolls over, the airbags may not be deployed. In the event of a rear or front collision, none of the lateral airbags are deployed.

Advice

! For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the safety recommendations below.

Adopt a normal and upright sitting position. Fasten your seat belt and position it correctly. Do not place anything between the occupants and the airbags (e.g. child, animal, object), do not fix or attach anything near or in the path of the airbags, as this could cause injuries when they are deployed.

Never modify the original definition of the vehicle, particularly in the area directly around the airbags.

Even if all of the precautions mentioned are observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns to the head, chest or arms cannot be ruled out when an airbag is deployed. The bag inflates almost instantly (within a few milliseconds) then deflates within the same time, discharging the hot gas via openings provided for this purpose.

After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen, have the airbag systems checked. All work must be carried out only by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

! Front airbags Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.

Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard.

Do not smoke as deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.

Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.

Do not fix or attach anything to the steering wheel or dashboard, as this could cause injuries when the airbags are deployed.

Lateral airbags

! Use only approved seat covers compatible with the deployment of these airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a dealer. Do not fix or attach anything to the seat backrests (e.g. clothing) as this could cause injuries to the chest or arm when the airbag is deployed.

Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary. The vehicle's front door panels include side impact sensors.

A damaged door or any unauthorised or incorrectly executed work (modification or repair) on the front doors or their interior trim could compromise the operation of these sensors - risk of malfunction of the lateral airbags!

All work must be carried out only by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the roof, as this could cause head injuries when the curtain airbag is deployed. Do not remove the grab handles installed on the roof, as these help to secure the curtain airbags.

Child seats

i The regulations on carrying children are specific to each country. Refer to the legislation in force in your country.

For maximum safety, please observe the following recommendations:

- In accordance with European regulations, all children under the age of 12 or less than 1.5 metres tall must travel in approved child seats suited to their weight, on seats fitted with a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings.

- Statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for carrying children are the rear seats.

- Children weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the "rearward facing" position, whether in the front or rear of the vehicle.

It is recommended that children travel on the rear seats of the vehicle:

  • "rearward facing" up to the age of 3.
  • "forward facing" over the age of 3.

! Make sure that the seat belt is correctly positioned and tightened. For child seats with a support leg, ensure that the support leg is in firm and steady contact with the floor.

! An incorrectly installed child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's safety in the event of an accident.

Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt buckle under the child seat, as this could destabilise it.

Remember to fasten the seat belts or the child seat harness keeping the slack relative to the child's body to a minimum, even for short journeys.

When installing a child seat using the seat belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened correctly on the child seat and that it secures the child seat firmly on the vehicle seat. If the passenger seat is adjustable, move it forwards if necessary.

Remove the head restraint before installing a child seat with a backrest on a passenger seat.

Ensure that the head restraint is stored or attached securely to prevent it from being thrown around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking. Refit the head restraint once the child seat has been removed.

Installing a booster seat

! The chest part of the seat belt must be positioned on the child's shoulder without touching the neck.

Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt passes correctly over the child's thighs.

Use a booster seat with a backrest, equipped with a belt guide at shoulder level.

Additional protections

! To prevent accidental opening of the doors and rear windows, use the "Child lock". Take care not to open the rear windows by more than one third.

To protect young children from the sun's rays, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

As a safety measure, do not leave:

- A child alone and unsupervised inside a vehicle.

- A child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with the windows closed.

- The keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.

In the event of a serious impact, the electric child lock is switched off automatically to permit the exit of the rear passengers.

Driving recommendations

▶ Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
▶ Monitor your environment and keep your hands on the wheel to be able to react to anything that may happen any time.
▶ Drive smoothly, anticipate the need for braking and maintain a longer safety distance, especially in bad weather.
▶ Stop the vehicle before performing operations that require sustained attention (e.g. settings).
▶ During long trips, take a break every 2 hours.

Important!

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Important! - 1

Never leave the engine running in a closed space without sufficient ventilation.

Internal combustion engines emit toxic exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Important! - 2

In very severe wintry conditions (temperature below -23°C), let the engine for 4 minutes before moving off, to ensure correct operation and durability of the mechanical components of your vehicle (engine and gearbox).

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Important! - 3

Never drive with the parking brake applied. Risk of overheating and aging the braking system!

! Never park the vehicle and never leave the engine running on a flammable surface (e.g. dry grass, dead leaves). The vehicle exhaust system is very hot, even several minutes after the engine stops. Risk of fire!

Never drive on surfaces covered with vegetation (e.g. tall grass, accumulated dead leaves, crops, debris) such as a field, a country lane overgrown with bushes or a grassy verge.

This vegetation could come into contact with the vehicle's exhaust system or other systems which are very hot. Risk of fire!

! Make sure you do not leave any item in the passenger compartment which could act like a magnifying glass under the effect of the sun's rays and cause a fire. Risk of fire or damage to interior surfaces!

Never leave the vehicle unattended, with the engine running. If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake and put the automatic gearbox into position N or P.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Important! - 4

Never leave children inside the vehicle unsupervised.

• E-TENSE 4X4 360

1 Repeated hard braking in this vehicle can generate loud banging noises which are completely normal.

Continue driving but with lighter braking so that the braking system can cool down.

The performance of the braking system remains unaffected.

On flooded roads

We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads, as this could cause serious damage to the internal combustion engine or electric motor, the gearbox and the electrical systems of the vehicle.

10 km/h - 6 mph MAX 150 mm

If the vehicle absolutely must drive through a flooded section of road:

▶ Check that the depth of the water does not exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that might be generated by other users.
▶ Deactivate the Stop & Start function.
For rechargeable hybrid engines, place the mode selector in 4WD position (depending on version).
▶ Drive as slowly as possible without stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h).

Do not stop and do not switch off the engine. On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety conditions allow, make several light brake applications to dry the brake discs and pads. If in doubt about the state of your vehicle, contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Towing

! Driving with a trailer places greater demands on the towing vehicle and particular care must be taken.

i Do not exceed the maximum towable weights.

At altitude: reduce the maximum load by 10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower air density at high altitudes decreases engine performance.

! New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the vehicle has driven at least 620 miles (1,000 kilometres).

If the outside temperature is high, let the engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.

Before setting off

Nose weight

▶ Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight (at the point where it joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it.

Tyres

▶ Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures.

Lighting

▶ Check the electrical signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.

If a genuine towing device is used, the rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically to avoid the audible signal.

When driving

Cooling

Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant temperature to increase. The maximum towable load depends on the gradient and the exterior temperature. The fan's cooling capacity does not increase with engine speed.

▶ Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to limit the amount of heating produced.

▶ Pay constant attention to the coolant temperature.

If this warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the

vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.

Brakes

Using the engine brake is recommended to limit the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances are increased when towing a trailer.

Side wind

Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more susceptible to wind when towing.

Anti-theft protection

Displays in the instrument panel

When the ignition is switched on, the status of the gearbox is displayed in the instrument panel:

P: park.

R: reverse.

N: neutral.

D1 to D8: automatic forward gear.

B1 to B8: automatic forward gear with regenerative braking function activated. In all-electric driving, the gear engaged is not indicated.

The state of the gearbox remains displayed in the instrument panel for a few seconds after switching off the ignition.

Regenerative braking (Brake function)

The regenerative braking function emulates engine braking, slowing the vehicle with no need to depress the brake pedal. When the driver releases the accelerator pedal, the vehicle slows down more quickly.

The energy recovered when the accelerator pedal is released is used to partially recharge the traction battery.

i This partial recharging has no effect on the charge level indicator.

! The resulting deceleration of the vehicle does not cause the brake lamps to come on.

From mode D/B, move the push selector backwards to activate/deactivate the function. D on the instrument panel is replaced with B. The state of the function is not saved when the ignition is switched off.

In some situations (e.g. battery full, extreme temperatures), the amount of regenerative braking may be temporarily limited, resulting in less deceleration. The driver must remain alert to traffic conditions and must always be ready to use the brake pedal.

i Regenerative braking using the brake pedal

Energy recovery can also be produced by depressing the brake pedal in order to partially recharge the traction battery, without affecting the charge level indicator.

DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION

This system adapts the vehicle suspension according to the road condition and profile, the vehicle load, the driving style and the selected driving mode.

Driving

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION - 1

The system uses a computer and sensors, which determine the optimal level of shock absorption to be applied to each shock absorber. The system is also associated with a camera, located at the top of the windscreen, constantly monitoring the road condition. Based on the information transmitted by the camera, the system anticipates possible road defects. The operation of the system depends on the driving mode selected (depending on equipment). For more information on the Driving modes, please refer to the corresponding section.

Malfunction

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Malfunction - 1

In the event of a malfunction, this warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel.

For more information on Automatic gearbox (EAT8), refer to the corresponding section.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Manual - 1

With Rechargeable hybrid engines

Whenever the ignition is switched on, Electric driving mode is selected by default.

Electric

Allows driving using 100% electrical energy. The maximum speed is approximately 84 mph (135 km/h).

When starting the vehicle, if the conditions do not allow the activation or retention of Electric mode, the message "Electric mode currently unavailable" is displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle automatically changes to Hybrid mode.

If an LED comes on under the interior rear view mirror, visible from outside the vehicle, this confirms that you are driving in Electric mode (depending on country of sale).

The LED can be deactivated by inserting the tip of a paper clip or other similar object into the hole located underneath the interior rear view mirror.

Conditions of activation

- Adequate battery charge level. Charging the vehicle after each drive is therefore recommended. Electric mode is available as long as there is power left in the battery. - Outside temperature between approximately -5°C and 45°C.

Manually exiting the mode

▶ Fully depress the accelerator pedal, or ▶ Select another mode.

In case of non-use of the vehicle for a long period (several months), a restart of the petrol engine may occur even if the battery is charged.

i Depending on equipment, Electric mode is combined with Normal mode of the DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION function. For more information on DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION, refer to the corresponding section.

In the event of multiple starts of the internal combustion engine without a sufficient rise in temperature, Electric mode may be temporarily unavailable (natural phenomenon of dilution of fuel in oil). The message "Electric mode unavailable: automatic operation in progress" then appears on the instrument panel. To regain normal electrical operation, drive approximately 50 miles (80 km) in "motorway" conditions or approximately 125 miles (200 km) in urban conditions. This phenomenon does not cause any mechanical or electrical damage. It can occur several times in the life of the vehicle.

Hybrid

To optimise the vehicle's fuel consumption by managing the alternating or simultaneous operation of the two types of engine, depending on driving conditions and driving style. In Hybrid mode, it is possible to drive in 100% electric mode if the battery charge level is sufficient and acceleration requirements are moderate.

Depending on equipment, Hybrid mode is combined with Normal mode of the DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION function. For more information on DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION, refer to the corresponding section.

Sport

To obtain more dynamic driving in order to benefit from the maximum performance of the vehicle. Electric power is used to supplement the petrol engine as long as there is energy left in the battery.

Depending on equipment, Sport mode is combined with Sport mode of the DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION function. For more information on DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION, refer to the corresponding section.

E-TENSE 4X4 360

The electrical energy is used to supplement the petrol engine or recharge the traction battery, depending on the type of driving.

This mode is optimised with specific settings which make the most of the dynamic performance of this vehicle (power steering, accelerator pedal sensitivity, ESC).

Comfort

(Depending on equipment)

Combines Hybrid mode and Comfort mode of the DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION function.

To favour flexible shock absorption improving driving comfort on poor surfaces.

i For more information on DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION, refer to the corresponding section.

4WD (4-wheel drive)

(Depending on version)

Improves the vehicle's grip at low and moderate speeds by driving all 4 wheels continuously. 4WD mode (4-wheel drive) is especially suited to driving on snow-covered roads and difficult terrain (e.g. mud, sand) as well as ford crossings, at moderate speed.

Depending on the driving conditions and the battery charge level, 4WD mode may be 100% electric.

If the system does not detect a situation of wheel slipping or poor grip after 300 metres of driving, it switches to Hybrid mode.

i This mode will be even more effective if the vehicle is fitted with suitable tyres, such as winter tyres.

The grip can be improved up to 84 mph (135 km/h) using the electric motors; above this speed, the vehicle is driven by the front wheels only.

Hill start assist

This system keeps the vehicle briefly stationary (for approximately 2 seconds) when making a hill start, while you transfer your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.

The system is only active when:

- The vehicle is completely stationary, with your foot on the brake pedal.

- Certain slope conditions are met.

- The driver's door is closed.

Do not leave the vehicle while it is being held temporarily by hill start assist.

If someone needs to get out of the vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake manually. Then check that the parking brake indicator lamp and the P indicator lamp in the electric parking brake control are on fixed.

! The hill start assist function cannot be deactivated. However, using the parking

brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts its operation.

Operation
2S

Facing uphill, with the vehicle stationary, the vehicle is held for a short time when the driver releases the brake pedal:

- If mode D or M is selected on an automatic gearbox.

2s

Facing downhill, with the vehicle stationary and reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held for a short time when the driver releases the brake pedal.

Gear shift indicator

(Depending on engine)

This system is designed to reduce fuel consumption by recommending the most suitable gear.

Operation

Depending on the driving situation and the vehicle's equipment, the system may recommend skipping one or more gears.

Gear engagement recommendations are not to be considered mandatory. Indeed, the configuration of the road, the traffic density and safety remain determining factors when choosing the best gear. Therefore, the driver remains responsible for deciding whether or not to follow the system's advice.

The system cannot be deactivated.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Operation - 1

The system is only active in mode M of the

automatic gearbox.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Operation - 2

The information appears on the instrument panel, in the form of an arrow and the

recommended gear.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Operation - 3

The system adapts the gear change instructions according to the driving

conditions (e.g. slope, load) and driving style

(e.g. power demand, acceleration, braking).

The system never suggests:

  • engaging first gear.
  • engaging reverse gear.

Stop & Start

The Stop & Start function puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during phases when the vehicle is stationary (e.g. red lights, traffic jams). The engine automatically restarts - START mode - as soon as the driver indicates the intention of moving off again.

Primarily designed for urban use, the function is intended to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.

The function does not affect the functionalities of the vehicle, in particular the braking.

Deactivation/Reactivation

By default, the function is activated when the ignition is switched on.

▶ Switch off the ignition then start the engine again with the "START/STOP" button.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - The vehicle stalls in STOP mode - 1

12 V battery

! The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V battery of specific technology and specification.

All work must be carried out only by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Tyre under-inflation detection

This system alerts the driver if one or more tyres suffer a drop in pressure.

The alert is raised when the vehicle is moving, not when stationary.

It compares the information given by the wheel speed sensors with reference values, which must be reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.

It takes into account the last values stored during the reinitialisation request. It is therefore essential that the tyre pressure is correct during the operation. This operation is the driver's responsibility.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Tyre under-inflation detection - 1

! The tyre under-inflation detection cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver. This system does not avoid the need to regularly check the tyre pressures (including the spare wheel), especially before a long journey.

Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly in adverse conditions (heavy load, high speed, long journey):

  • worsens road-holding.
  • lengthens braking distances.
  • causes premature wear of the tyres.
  • increases energy consumption.

i The inflation pressures defined for the vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure label.

For more information on the Identification markings, refer to the corresponding section.

! Checking tyre pressures This check should be done monthly when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).

Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures shown on the label.

i Snow chains The system does not have to be reinitialised after fitting or removing snow chains.

Under-inflation alert

This is signalled by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and, depending on equipment, the display of a message.

▶ Reduce speed immediately, avoid excessive steering movements and avoid sudden braking.
▶ Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.

! The loss of pressure detected may not always cause visible deformation of the tyre.

Do not rely on just a visual check.

▶ Using a compressor, such as the one in the temporary puncture repair kit, check the pressures of all four tyres when cold.
▶ If it is not possible to carry out this check immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.
In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel (depending on equipment).

! Driving too slowly may not ensure optimum monitoring.

The alert is not immediately triggered in the event of a sudden loss of pressure or tyre blow-out. This is because analysis of the values read

by the wheel's speed sensors can take several minutes.

The alert may be delayed at speeds below 25 mph (40 km/h), or when adopting a sporty driving mode.

i The alert is kept active until the system is reinitialised.

Reinitialisation

The system must be reinitialised after any adjustment to the pressure of one or more tyres, and after changing one or more wheels.

! Before reinitialising the system, make sure that the pressures of the four tyres are correct for the conditions of use of the vehicle and conform to the values written on the tyre pressure label.

Check the pressures of the four tyres before performing the reinitialisation.

The system does not advise if a pressure is incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.

With the vehicle stationary, the system can be reinitialised in the Settings>Vehicle

touch screen application.

▶ Then select Safety > Tire Pressure Setup.
▶ Press YES to confirm.

The reinitialisation is confirmed by the display of a message and an audible signal.

Driving and manoeuvring aids - General recommendations

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Driving and manoeuvring aids - General recommendations - 1

Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need for once on the part of the driver.

The driver must comply with the Highway Code, must remain in control of the vehicle in all circumstances and must be able to retake

control of it at all times. The driver must adapt the speed to climatic conditions, traffic and the state of the road.

It is the driver's responsibility to constantly monitor traffic conditions, assess the distance and relative speed of other vehicles, and anticipate their manoeuvres before using the direction indicator and changing lanes. These systems do not make it possible to exceed the laws of physics.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Driving and manoeuvring aids - General recommendations - 2

Driving aids

You should hold the steering wheel with both hands, always use the door and interior mirrors, always leave your feet close to the pedals and take a break every 2 hours.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Driving aids - 1

Manoeuvring aids

1 The driver must always check the surroundings of the vehicle before and during the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the mirrors.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Manoeuvring aids - 1

Radar(s)

The operation of the radar(s), along with any associated functions, may be affected by the accumulation of dirt (e.g. mud, ice), in poor weather conditions (e.g. heavy rain, snow), or if the bumpers are damaged.

If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact a dealer or a qualified workshop; certain types

of paint could interfere with the operation of the radar(s).

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Radar(s) - 2

Driving aids camera

This camera and its associated functions may be impaired or not work if the windscreen area in front of the camera is dirty, misty, frosty, covered with snow, damaged or masked by a sticker.

In humid and cold weather, demist the windscreen regularly.

Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting, heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel, alternating shade and light) can also impair detection performance.

In the event of a windscreen replacement, contact a dealer or a qualified workshop to recalibrate the camera; otherwise, the operation of the associated driving aids may be disrupted.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Driving aids camera - 1

Other cameras

1 The images from the camera(s) displayed on the touch screen or on the instrument panel may be distorted by the terrain.

In the presence of areas in shade, or in conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate lighting, the image may be darkened and with lower contrast.

Obstacles may appear further away than they actually are.

Sensors

The operation of the sensors, as well as any associated functions, may be disrupted by noise pollution such as that emitted by noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries, pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of snow or dead leaves on the road or in the event of damaged bumpers and mirrors.

When reverse gear is engaged, an audible signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors may be dirty.

A front or rear impact to the vehicle can upset the sensors' settings, which is not always detected by the system: distance measurements may be distorted.

The sensors do not systematically detect obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs) or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).

Certain obstacles located in the sensors' blind spots may not be detected or may no longer be detected during the manoeuvre.

Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound waves: pedestrians may not be detected.

Maintenance

1 Clean the bumpers and door mirrors and the field of vision of the cameras regularly. When washing your vehicle at high pressure, direct the spray from at least 30 cm away from the radar, sensors and cameras.

Mats/Pedal trims

! The use of mats or pedal trims not approved by the Manufacturer may interfere with the operation of the speed limiter or cruise control.

To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:

- Ensure that the mat is secured correctly.

- Never fit one mat on top of another.

Units of speed

1 Ensure that the units of speed displayed on the instrument panel (mph or km/h) are those for the country you are driving in. If this is not the case, when the vehicle is stationary, set the display to the required units of speed so that it complies with what is authorised locally.

In case of doubt, contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Cruise control - Specific recommendations

! The cruise control function does not guarantee compliance with the maximum authorised speed and the safety distance between vehicles, the driver remains responsible for their driving. In the interest of public safety, only use cruise control if the traffic conditions enable vehicles to drive at a steady speed and maintain an adequate safety distance.

Remain vigilant while cruise control is

activated. If you press and hold one of the speed setting modification buttons, your vehicle may change speed very abruptly. When descending a steep hill, the cruise control system cannot prevent the vehicle from exceeding the set speed. Brake if necessary to control the vehicle speed.

On steep climbs or when towing, the set speed may not be reached or maintained.

Exceeding the programmed speed setting You can temporarily exceed the speed setting by pressing the accelerator pedal (the programmed speed flashes).

To return to the speed setting, release the accelerator pedal (when the set speed is reached again, the displayed speed stops flashing).

! Operating limits Never use the system in the following situations:

  • In an urban area with the risk of pedestrians crossing the road.
  • In heavy traffic (except versions with the Stop & Go function).
  • On winding or steep roads.
  • On slippery or flooded roads.
  • In poor weather conditions.
  • In the event of restricted visibility for the driver.
  • Driving on a speed circuit.
  • Driving on a rolling road.
  • When using a 'space-saver' type spare wheel.
  • When using snow chains, non-slip covers or studded tyres.

Programmable cruise control

! For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids and the Specific recommendations on cruise control.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Programmable cruise control - 1

This system automatically maintains the vehicle's speed at the value programmed driver (speed setting), without the use of celerator pedal.

Cruise control is switched on manually. It requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph (40 km/h).

With an automatic gearbox, mode D or second gear or higher in mode M must be engaged.

DS DRIVE ASSIST

This system automatically adjusts the speed and corrects the trajectory of the vehicle, using Adaptive cruise control with Stop&Go function in conjunction with Lane Positioning Assist.

These two functions must be activated and in operation.

For more information on Adaptive cruise control and Lane Positioning Assist, refer to the corresponding sections.

! The system assists the driver by acting on the steering, acceleration and braking within the physical limits and capacities of the vehicle. Certain road infrastructure elements or vehicles in the surroundings may not be properly seen or may be poorly interpreted by

the camera and radar, resulting in an unexpected change in direction, a lack of steering correction and/or inappropriate management of acceleration or braking.

! Primarily designed for driving on main roads and motorways, this system only works with moving vehicles driving in the same direction as your vehicle.

Adaptive cruise control

! For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids and the Specific recommendations of cruise control.

This system automatically maintains the vehicle speed at a value set by the driver (speed setting), while respecting a safety distance from the vehicle in front (target vehicle) previously set by the driver. The system automatically manages the acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle. With the Stop function, the system manages braking until the vehicle comes to a complete stop.

With the Stop & Go function, the system manages braking until the vehicle comes to a complete stop and restarts the vehicle.

! The brake lamps come on if the vehicle is slowed down by the system. It can be dangerous to drive if the brake lamps are not in perfect working order.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Adaptive cruise control - 1

To do this, the system uses a camera fitted at the top of the windscreen and, depending on version, a radar fitted in the front bumper.

! Primarily designed for driving on main roads and motorways, this system only works with moving vehicles driving in the same direction as your vehicle.

If the driver activates the direction indicator to overtake a slower vehicle, cruise control may temporarily reduce the distance to the target vehicle to facilitate overtaking, without exceeding the speed setting.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Lane positioning assist - 1

natural_image Diagram of a car driving on a curved road with dotted lane markings (no text or symbols)

The system identifies the edges of the traffic lane and steers the vehicle to keep it inside this lane and maintain the lateral position chosen by the driver.

To do this, the system uses a camera placed on the upper part of the windscreen.

This system is particularly suited to driving on motorways and main roads.

Operating conditions

  • Adaptive cruise control active.
  • Traffic lane marked out by lines on both sides.
  • ESC system operational.
  • ASR system activated.
  • No trailer detected.
  • No 'space-saver' spare wheel in use.
  • Vehicle not subject to strong lateral acceleration.
  • Direction indicators off upon activation of the system.

If the driver no longer wishes to use the system for a while, they can deactivate it by pressing the button again.

The indicator lamp in the button goes off and the symbol disappears from the instrument panel.

i The system status is saved when the ignition is switched off.

Cruise control

The driver must hold the steering wheel properly. When cruise control is activated, the symbol is displayed in green: by small steering actions, the system directs the vehicle and keeps it in the position chosen by the driver, in the traffic lane. This position is not necessarily the centre of the lane.

The driver can feel movements in the steering wheel.

The driver can change the position of the vehicle at any time, by turning the steering wheel. When the driver feels that the vehicle's position is appropriate, whilst keeping hands on the steering wheel, they must release the pressure to let the system resume control of the steering, but the vehicle will not be automatically centred within the lane.

Pausing/Suspending the system

! The driver must act promptly if they believe that the traffic conditions or the state of the road surface require their intervention, by moving the steering wheel to temporarily suspend system operation. Any intervention on the brake pedal that causes the Adaptive cruise control to pause will also cause the system to pause.

! If the system detects that the driver is not holding the wheel firmly enough, it triggers a series of gradual alerts and then deactivates itself if there is no response from the driver.

If the function is suspended due to the prolonged release of the force holding the steering wheel, the function must be reactivated by pressing the button again.

Automatic pause

  • Triggering of the ESC.
  • Prolonged failure to detect one of the lane limit markings. In this case, the Lane keeping assist function can take over, and the system will reactivate itself once the operating conditions are met again.

In response to action by the driver: suspension

  • Activation of the direction indicators.
  • Travelling outside the lane limits.
  • Too tight a grip on the steering wheel or dynamic action on the steering wheel.
  • Action on the brake pedal (resulting in a pause until cruise control is reactivated) or accelerator pedal (suspension for as long as the pedal is depressed).
  • Pausing of Adaptive cruise control.
  • Deactivation of the ASR.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Operating conditions and limits - 1

This warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel without any additional

message, to indicate that the automatic braking system is not available.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Operating conditions and limits - 2

This is a normal behavior indicating that a condition is not fulfilled and which does not request the support of a workshop. In any situations with ignition on where automatic braking presents a risk, deactivating the system via the driving aids touch screen application is recommended, for instance:

- Towing a trailer (particularly a trailer without its own braking system).

  • Carrying long objects on roof bars.
  • Driving with snow chains.
  • Using an automatic car wash.
  • Performing any maintenance (e.g. changing a wheel, working inside the engine compartment).
  • Placing the vehicle on a rolling bench in a workshop.
  • Towing the vehicle.
  • Following an impact to the windscreen close to the detection camera.

i The system is automatically deactivated once the use of a different diameter "space-saver" type spare wheel is detected, or if a fault with the two lateral brake lamps is detected.

i The system diagnoses permanently its capability and may inhibit itself without specific driver indication, if the system is outside of the regular operating conditions

(e.g. sensor initialization, board voltage out of regular range, activation of stability system). Therefore, the system may not be available just after starting the vehicle.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake lamps are not in perfect working order.
! The driver must not overload the vehicle (keep within the GVW limit and load height limits for roof bars).
Following an impact (e.g. a collision), the system is automatically deactivated. Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Collision Risk Alert

This function warns the driver if there is a risk of collision with the preceding vehicle, or with a pedestrian or cyclist.

Modifying the alert trigger threshold

The trigger threshold determines the sensitivity with which the function warns of the risk of collision.

It is configured in the ADAS touch screen application.

▶ Select one of the 3 preset thresholds: "Far", "Medium" or "Near".

The selected threshold is memorised when the ignition is switched off.

Operation

Depending on the collision risk detected by the system and the alert trigger threshold chosen by the driver, different levels of alert may be triggered and displayed on the instrument panel. The system takes into account the vehicle dynamics, the difference speed of the own vehicle and the object identified for the collision risk, and the operation of the vehicle (e.g. actions on the pedals, steering wheel) to trigger the alert at the most relevant moment.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Operation - 1

(orange)

Level 1: visual alert only, warning that the ing vehicle is very close.

The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Operation - 2

(red)

Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning collision is imminent.

The message "Brake!" is displayed.

Level 3: a micro-braking may be given, confirming the risk of collision (optional).

While approaching a vehicle too quickly, the level 2 alert may be displayed directly. Important: the level 1 alert depends on the trigger threshold selected. It reacts only on moving vehicles. It is disabled automatically at lower speed.

It is possible that collision warnings are not given, are given too late or seem unjustified.

The driver must always stay in control of the vehicle and be prepared to react at any time to avoid an accident.

! If you select "Far" in the touch screen, then the system warns sooner. This increases the safety but increases also the amount of alerts, if the legal safety distance is not kept.

To reduce the alert occurrence, you can change the setting to either of the other two.

Intelligent emergency braking assistance (iEBA)

This function increases vehicle deceleration if the driver does not brake enough to avoid a collision. This assistance is only provided if the driver presses the brake pedal.

Active Safety Brake

Diagram illustrating vehicle detection with signal waves and traffic light, showing three scenarios of detection by a pedestrian.

This function, also called "automatic emergency braking", intervenes after the acoustic alert if the driver does not operate the brake pedal quickly enough.

The system aims at reducing the speed of impact or avoiding a collision if the driver fails to react.

The speed will be reduced by a maximum of 16 mph (25 km/h) (versions with camera only) or by a maximum of 31 mph (50 km/h) (versions with camera and radar).

Operation

The system operates subject to the following conditions:

  • At reduced speed in an urban environment, when a stationary vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist is detected.
  • The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and 53 mph (10 km/h and 85 km/h) (versions with camera only) or 87 mph (140 km/h) (versions with camera and radar) when a moving vehicle is detected.

This warning lamp flashes (for approximately 10 seconds) as soon as the function applies the vehicle's brakes.

During the flashing time, the function is not available.

In the event of automatic emergency braking, keep the brake pedal depressed, also after a complete stop is reached, to prevent the vehicle from rolling away.

The driver can override the automatic emergency braking at any time by firmly turning the steering wheel and/or firmly depressing the accelerator pedal.
The brake pedal may feel hard and vibrate slightly while the function is operating. If the vehicle comes to a complete stop, automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2 seconds.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Malfunction - 4

These warning lamps light up on the instrument panel and/or in the

warning lamp display for seat belts and front passenger airbag to indicate that the driver's and/or front passenger's seat belt is not fastened (depending on version). The automatic braking system is deactivated until the seat belts are fastened.

Distraction detection

! For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.

The function comprises the "Driver Attention Warning" and "Driver Attention Warning by Camera" systems, combined, depending on version, with the "DS DRIVER ATTENTION MONITORING" system.

These systems are in no way designed to keep the driver awake or to prevent the driver from falling asleep at the wheel.

It is the driver's responsibility to stop if feeling tired.

Take a break if you are feeling tired or at least every 2 hours.

Activation/Deactivation

By default, the function is automatically activated at every engine start.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Activation/Deactivation - 1

The settings are changed via the ADAS touch screen application.

Driver Attention Warning

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Driver Attention Warning - 1

The system triggers an alert when it detects that the driver has not taken a

break after two hours of driving at a speed above 43 mph (70 km/h).

This alert is issued via the display of a message encouraging the driver to take a break, accompanied by an audible signal.

If the driver does not follow this advice, the alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped.

The system resets itself if one of the following conditions is met:

- With the engine running, the vehicle has been stationary for more than 15 minutes.

- The ignition has been switched off for a few minutes.

- The driver's seat belt is unfastened and their door is opened.

i As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops below 43 mph (70 km/h), the system goes into standby.

Driving time starts being counted again once the speed reaches above 43 mph (70 km/h).

Driver Attention Warning by Camera

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Driver Attention Warning by Camera - 1

natural_image Diagram showing vehicle positions on a road with dashed lane markings (no text or symbols)

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Driver Attention Warning by Camera - 2

The system assesses the driver's level of alertness, fatigue and distraction by flying trajectory changes in relation to the markings.

To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on the upper part of the windscreen.

This system is particularly suited to fast roads (speed higher than 43 mph (70 km/h)).

At a first alert level, the driver is warned by the message "Caution!", accompanied by an audible signal.

After three first-level alerts, the system triggers a further alert with the message "Driving at risk: Take a break", accompanied by a more pronounced audible signal.

i In certain driving conditions (poor road surface or strong winds), the system may

give alerts independent of the driver's level of vigilance.

! The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or prevent it from working:

- lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks);

- close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings not detected);

- roads that are narrow, winding, etc.

DS DRIVER ATTENTION MONITORING

(Depending on version)

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - DS DRIVER ATTENTION MONITORING - 1

natural_image Line drawing of a car steering wheel with a red arrow indicating clockwise motion (no text or symbols)

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - DS DRIVER ATTENTION MONITORING - 2

An additional (infrared) camera is fitted to the steering column, behind the steering to monitor driver behaviour.

The camera analyses, firstly, the direction of the driver's gaze and head to assess their distraction

level and, secondly, the closing of their eyelids to assess the level of their vigilance and attention. When the vigilance level (distraction or loss of attention) is low, the system emits an alert. With the "Personal" display mode of the digital instrument panel, the driver can select the permanent display of the "Level of vigilance" diagram, which enables them to monitor this information in real time.

i The system is activated at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h).

! The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or prevent it from working:

- system's camera field of vision blocked or obstructed.

- wearing certain types of spectacles or sunglasses that are very dark or reflective.

- face partially obscured (e.g. by a hand, by hair).

- unusual or incorrect driving position. Under no circumstances shall the Manufacturer be held liable in the event of alerts not being given or for the consequences of using this system.

Lane keeping assist

! For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.

The system corrects the vehicle's trajectory by alerting the driver as soon as it detects a risk of involuntary lane departure or crossing of a verge or hard shoulder (depending on version).

To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on the upper part of the windscreen, identifying the lane markings on the ground and the side of the road (depending on version).

This system is particularly useful on motorways and main roads.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Lane keeping assist - 1

natural_image Diagram of a vehicle under load with motion arrows indicating speed (no text or symbols)

Operating conditions

  • Vehicle speed between 43 and 112 mph (70 and 180 km/h).
  • Road marked with a central dividing line.
  • Steering wheel held with both hands.
  • Direction indicators off upon activation of the system.
  • ESC system activated and operational.

! The system helps the driver only if there is a risk of the vehicle unintentionally wandering from the lane it is being driven in. It does not manage the safe driving distance, vehicle speed or braking.

The driver must hold the steering wheel with both hands so that they can maintain control when the conditions no longer allow the system to intervene (e.g. in the event that the central dividing line marking on the road surface disappears).

Operation

As soon as the system identifies a risk of involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings detected on the ground or a lane boundary (e.g. grass verge), it performs the trajectory correction necessary to restore the vehicle to its original lane.

The driver will notice a turning movement of the steering wheel.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Operation - 1

This warning lamp flashes during trajectory correction.

i The driver can prevent the correction by firmly holding the steering wheel (e.g. during an emergency manoeuvre). The correction is interrupted immediately if the direction indicators are operated.

While the direction indicators are activated and for a few seconds after switching them off, the system considers that a change of trajectory is

intentional and no correction is triggered during this period.

The table below describes the alerts and messages displayed in different driving situations.

The actual order of display of these alerts may be different.

The warning will become continuous, persisting until the driver responds.

Operating limits

The system goes into standby automatically in the following cases:

  • ESC deactivated or operation triggered.
  • Speed below 43 mph (70 km/h) or greater than 112 mph (180 km/h).
  • Electrical connection to a trailer.
  • Use of a "space-saver" spare wheel detected (as detection is not immediate, deactivation of the system is recommended).
  • Dynamic driving style detected, pressure on the brake or accelerator pedal.
  • Driving over lane markings.
  • Activation of the direction indicators.
  • Crossing the inside line on a bend.
  • Driving on a tight bend.
  • Inactivity by the driver detected during correction.

! The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or prevent it from working:

  • Insufficient contrast between the road surface and the verge or hard shoulder (e.g. shade).
  • Lane markings worn, hidden (snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks, etc.),
  • Close proximity to the vehicle in front (lane markings may not be detected).
    Roads that are narrow, winding.

Risk of undesirable operation

The system should be deactivated in the following situations:

  • When changing a wheel or working near a wheel.

Paraffinic Diesel fuel conforming to the EN15940 standard.

! The use of any other type of (bio)fuel (e.g. pure or diluted vegetable or animal oils, domestic fuel) is strictly prohibited - risk of damaging the engine and fuel system!

i The only fuel additives authorised for use are those that meet the B715001 (petrol) or B715000 (Diesel) standards.

Diesel at low temperature

At temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel fuels could prevent the engine from operating

correctly. In these temperature conditions, use winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank more than 50% full.

At temperatures below -15 °C (+5 °F) to avoid problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle under shelter (heated garage).

Travelling abroad

Certain fuels could damage your vehicle's engine. In certain countries, the use of a particular fuel may be required (specific octane rating, specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct operation of the engine.

For all additional information, consult a dealer.

Refuelling

Fuel tank capacity: approximately 55 litres (Diesel), 62 litres (Petrol) or 43 litres (Rechargeable hybrid).

Reserve level: approximately 6 litres.

Low fuel level

When the low fuel level is reached, this warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel, accompanied by the display of a message and an audible signal. When it first comes on, about 6 litres of fuel remain.

Until sufficient fuel is added, this warning lamp appears every time the ignition is switched on, accompanied by the message and the audible signal. When driving, this message and audible

Practical information

signal are repeated with increasing frequency as the fuel level drops towards 0.

You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out of fuel.

Checking using the dipstick

For the location of the dipstick, please refer to the illustration of the corresponding engine compartment.

▶ Grasp the dipstick by its coloured grip and pull it out completely.
▶ Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean, lint-free cloth.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Checking using the dipstick - 1

▶ Reinsert the dipstick and push fully down, then pull it out again to visually check the oil level: the correct level is between marks A (max) and B (min).

Do not start the engine if the level is:

  • above mark A: contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.
  • below mark B: top up the engine oil immediately.

Oil grade Before topping up or changing the engine oil, check that the oil is suitable for your engine and complies with the recommendations in the service schedule supplied with the vehicle (or available from your dealer or qualified workshop).

Use of non-recommended oil may invalidate your warranty in the event of engine failure.

Topping up the engine oil level

For the location of the engine oil filler cap, please refer to the corresponding engine compartment illustration.

▶ Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills on engine components (risk of fire).
▶ Wait a few minutes before checking the level again using the dipstick.

▶ Top up the level if necessary.

▶ After checking the level, carefully screw the oil filler cap back on and replace the dipstick in its tube.

i The oil level indication displayed on the instrument panel when the ignition is switched on is not valid for 30 minutes following an addition of oil.

Brake fluid

The level of this fluid should be close to the "MAX" mark. If not, check the brake pads for wear.

To know how often the brake fluid should be replaced, refer to the manufacturer's servicing schedule.

! Clean the cap before removing it to refill. Use only DOT4 brake fluid from a sealed container.

Engine coolant

It is normal to top up this fluid between two services.

The check and top-up must only be done with the engine cold.

A level of coolant that is too low risks causing major damage to the engine; the coolant level must be close to the "MAX" mark without ever going above it.

If the level is close to or below the "MIN" mark, it is essential to top it up.

When the engine is hot, the temperature of the coolant is regulated by the fan.

As the cooling system is pressurised, wait at least one hour after switching off the engine before carrying out any work.

In order to avoid the risk of scalding if you need to top up in an emergency, wrap a cloth around the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop.

Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and top up to the required level.

Screenwash fluid

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Screenwash fluid - 1

Top up to the required level when necessary.

Fluid specification

The fluid must be topped up with a pre-mixed product.

In winter (temperatures below zero), a fluid containing an anti-freeze agent which is

appropriate for the temperature conditions must be used in order to protect the system's components (pump, tank, ducts, jets).

Brake pads

Brake wear depends on the style of driving, particularly in the case of vehicles used in town, over short distances. It may be necessary to have the condition of the brakes checked, even between vehicle services.

Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads are worn.

After washing the vehicle, moisture, or in wintry conditions, ice can form on the brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may be reduced. Gently dab the brakes to dry and defrost them.

Brake disc wear

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Brake disc wear - 1

For information on checking brake disc wear, contact a dealer or a qualified hop.

Wheels and tyres

The inflation pressure of all tyres, including the spare wheel, must be checked on "cold" tyres.

The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure label are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles (10 kilometres) at over 31 mph (50 km/h), add 0.3 bar (30 kPa) to the values indicated on the label.

! Under-inflation increases energy consumption. Non-compliant tyre pressures cause tyres to wear prematurely and have an adverse effect on the vehicle's road holding - risk of accident!

Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the braking and road holding performance of the vehicle. Regularly check the condition of the tyres (tread and sidewalls) and rims as well as the presence of the valve caps.

When the wear indicators no longer appear set back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is less than 1.6 mm; replace the tyres as soon as possible.

Using different size wheels and tyres from those specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer reading and have an adverse effect on road holding.

Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles can cause the ESC to mistime.

Always mark the direction of rotation on the tyres that will be stored when fitting winter or summer tyres. Store them in a cool, dry place and away from direct exposure to the sun's rays.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Wheels and tyres - 1

Winter or 4-seasons tyres can be identified by this symbol on their sidewalls.

Shock absorbers

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Shock absorbers - 1

It is not easy for drivers to detect when shock absorbers are worn. Nevertheless,

the shock absorbers have a major impact on road holding and braking performance. For your safety and driving comfort, it is important to have them regularly checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Timing and accessory kits

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Timing and accessory kits - 1

The timing and accessory kits are used from the time the engine is started until it

is switched off. It is normal for them to wear over time.

A faulty timing or accessory kit can damage the engine, rendering it unusable. Observe the recommended replacement frequency, stated in distance travelled or time elapsed, whichever is reached first.

AdBlue ^® (BlueHDi)

To respect the environment and ensure compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without adversely affecting the performance or fuel consumption of its Diesel engines, the Manufacturer has taken the decision to equip its vehicles with a system that combines SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) with a Diesel Particle Filter (DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases.

SCR system

Using a liquid called AdBlue ^x that contains urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and water, which are harmless to health and the environment.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - SCR system - 1

The AdBlue ^® is contained in a special tank holding about 17 litres.

Its capacity allows a driving range of approximately 3,900 miles (6,500 km), which may vary considerably depending on your driving style. An alert system is triggered once the reserve level is reached: it is then possible to drive for a further 1,500 miles (2,400 km) before the tank is empty and the vehicle is immobilised.

For more information on the Warning and indicator lamps and the associated alerts, or the Indicators, please refer to the corresponding sections.

Once the AdBlue ^® tank is empty, a device required by law prevents the engine from being restarted.

If the SCR system is faulty, the level of emissions from the vehicle will no longer meet the Euro 6 standard and the vehicle starts polluting the environment. In the event of a confirmed SCR system malfunction, it is essential to visit a dealer or a qualified workshop. After 660 miles (1,100 km) a device is automatically activated to prevent the engine from starting. In both cases, a range indicator indicates the distance that can be travelled before the vehicle is stopped.

• Freezing of the AdBlue\*

1 AdBlue ^® freezes at temperatures below around -11°C.

The SCR system includes a heater for the AdBlue ^® tank, allowing you to continue driving in very cold conditions.

Supply of AdBlue®

It is recommended that the AdBlue ^® be topped up as soon as the first alert is issued indicating that the reserve level has been reached.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Supply of AdBlue® - 1

For the correct operation of the SCR system:

- Use only AdBlue "fluid that meets the ISO 22241 standard.

  • Never transfer AdBlue ^® to another container as it would lose its purity.
  • Never dilute AdBlue ^® with water.

You can obtain AdBlue ^® from a dealer or a qualified workshop, as well as service stations equipped with AdBlue ^® pumps specially designed for passenger vehicles.

Recommendations on storage

AdBlue ^x freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates above +25°C. Containers should be stored in a cool area and protected from direct sunlight.

Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept for at least a year.

If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has completely thawed out at room temperature.

166

Practical information

! Never store AdBlue ^™ containers in your vehicle.

Precautions for use

AdBlue ^* is a urea-based solution. This fluid is non-flammable, colourless and odourless (when kept in a cool place).

In the event of contact with the skin, wash the affected area with soap and running water. In the event of contact with the eyes, immediately rinse the eyes with large amounts of water or with an eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if you feel a persistent burning sensation or irritation.

If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth with clean water and then drink plenty of water. In certain conditions (high temperature, for example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot be excluded: do not inhale the fluid. Ammonia vapours have an irritant effect on mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat).

! Store AdBlue ^® out of the reach of children, in its original container.

Procedure

Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure that the vehicle is parked on a flat and level surface. In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature of the vehicle is above -11°C. Otherwise the AdBlue* may be frozen and so cannot be poured into the tank. Park the vehicle in a warmer area

for a few hours to allow the top-up to be carried out.

Never pour the AdBlue ^x into the Diesel fuel tank.

If any AdBlue ^® is splashed, or if there are any spillages on the bodywork, rinse immediately with cold water or wipe with a damp cloth. If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off using a sponge and hot water.

! Important: in the event of a top-up after an AdBlue breakdown, you must wait about 5 minutes before switching on the ignition, without opening the driver's door, unlocking the vehicle or bringing the electronic key into the passenger compartment. Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10 seconds before starting the engine.

▶ Press the "START/STOP" button to switch off the engine.

CITROEN DS7 Crossback (2017) - Procedure - 1

natural_image Diagram of a mechanical assembly with two components and a red arrow indicating a directional component (no text or symbols)

▶ Turn the blue cap of the AdBlutank anticlockwise and remove it.

With a container of AdBlue after checking the expiry date, read the instructions on the label carefully before pouring the contents of the container into the vehicle's AdBlue ^® tank.
▶ With an AdBlue pump: insert the nozzle and fill the tank until the nozzle automatically cuts out.

In order not to overfill the AdBlue ^® tank: - Add between 10 and 13 litres using AdBlue ^® containers.

- Stop after the nozzle's first automatic cut-out, if you are refilling at a service station. The system only registers AdBlue ^x intermediate top-ups of 5 litres or more.

! If the AdBlue ^® tank is completely empty – which is confirmed by the message "Top up AdBlue: Starting impossible" – it is essential to add at least 10 litres.

Top-up detection may not be instantaneous after addition. It may take a few minutes of driving before the top-up detection is effective.

Free-wheeling

In certain situations, it is necessary to put the vehicle into free-wheeling mode (e.g. towing, on a rolling road, automatic car wash (Wash mode), rail or sea transport).

The procedure varies according to the type of gearbox and parking brake.

! Never leave the vehicle unattended with the vehicle into free-wheeling mode.

i Keyless Entry and Start You must not depress the brake pedal while switching the ignition on again, then switching it off. If you do, the engine will start, requiring you to restart the procedure.

Advice on care and maintenance

General recommendations

Observe the following recommendations to avoid damaging the vehicle.

Exterior

Never use a high-pressure jet wash in the engine compartment - risk of damaging the electrical components! Do not wash the vehicle in bright sunshine or extremely cold conditions.

When washing the vehicle in an automatic roller-brush car wash, be sure to lock the doors and, depending on version, move the electronic key away and deactivate the "hands-free" function (Hands-Free Tailgate Access).

When using a pressure washer, keep the jet nozzle at a minimum distance of 30 cm from the vehicle (particularly when cleaning areas containing chipped paint, sensors or seals). Promptly clean up any stains containing chemicals liable to damage the vehicle's paintwork (including tree resin, bird droppings, insect secretions, pollen and tar). Depending on the environment, clean the vehicle frequently to remove salty deposits (in coastal areas), soot (in industrial areas)

and mud/salts (in wet or cold areas). These substances can be highly corrosive. Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop for advice on removing stubborn stains requiring special products (such as tar or insect removers). Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Interior

When washing the vehicle, never use a water hose or high-pressure jet to clean the interior. Liquids carried in cups or other open containers can spill, presenting a risk of damage to the instruments and controls and the controls located on the centre console. Be vigilant! To clean instrument panels, touch screens or other displays, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use products (e.g. alcohol, disinfectant) or soapy water directly on these surfaces - risk of damage!

Towing the vehicle

i General recommendations Observe the legislation in force in the country where you are driving.

Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is higher than that of the towed vehicle. The driver must remain at the wheel of the towed vehicle and must have a valid driving licence.

When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always use an approved towing arm; rope and straps are prohibited. The towing vehicle must move off gently. When the vehicle is towed with its engine off, there is no longer braking and steering assistance.

A professional towing service must be called if: - Broken down on a motorway or main road. - Not possible to put the gearbox into neutral, unlock the steering, or release the parking brake.

  • Not possible to tow a vehicle with an automatic gearbox, with the engine running.
  • Towing with only two wheels on the ground.
  • Four-wheel drive vehicle.
  • No approved towbar available.

! Rechargeable hybrid vehicles Before any intervention, with the ignition on, depress the brake pedal and select mode N, then switch off the hybrid system (READY indicator lamp off).

Always call on professionals for recovery of the vehicle on a flatbed lorry or trailer. Use the towing eye only to free the vehicle if it is stuck, or to secure it for recovery on a flatbed lorry or trailer.

2WD: 2-wheel drive.
4WD: 4-wheel drive.

Voice commands

First steps

(depending on equipment)

The voice recognition service offers a choice of 17 languages minimum (French, German, English (UK), English (US), Arabic, Brazilian, Chinese, Spanish, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Swedish, Turkish) available with the cellular network and in line with the language chosen and previously configured in the system.

The system supports two languages for cases where the area in which the vehicle is travelling is not covered by the cellular network.

These languages, referred to as on-board languages, are downloaded into the system. If the chosen language has not been downloaded, a message on the screen appears as soon as the cellular network is not connected for the first time and offers to download it.

To use this new language in all areas, download it beforehand (ignition on without starting the engine) via the Wi-Fi network.

Apply the download procedure displayed on the screen.

Downloading this new language removes the least used on-board language.

Connectivity

Connecting a wired device by USB

The USB connection of a mobile device allows it to be recharged. It makes its authorised media content available to the system (Media content of iPod ^5 type).

Only one USB socket will allow a Mirror Screen connection (Apple®CarPlay® or Android Auto) for the compatible connected mobile devices and to use some of the device's applications on the touch screen. For more information on the USB socket compatible with the Mirror Screen® function, refer to the "Ease of use and comfort - Fittings" section. The mobile device is in charging mode when connected with the USB cable.

It is recommended that you use your device's original USB cables, preferably with a short cable to ensure optimum performance.

To protect the system, do not use a USB hub.

Bluetooth ^® connection

Connecting a mobile device to the vehicle's system via Bluetooth ^® provides access to its

contents and its "Media" streaming. It also enables the Phone function to be activated. The connection can be initiated either from the mobile device's Bluetooth™ menu or from the vehicle's system, which requires opening the "My Devices" menu for the first connection.

In some cases, you will need to unlock your device and check the authorisation to synchronise contacts and recent calls. Some features may not be supported by your device. For information on the partial or full compatibility of device models or smartphones, please connect to the Brand's national website.

Vehicle data recording and privacy

Vehicle data recording and privacy

Electronic control units are installed in your vehicle. These control units process data received from the vehicle's sensors, for example, or data they generate themselves or exchange with each other. Some of these control units are required for the correct operation of your vehicle, some others assist you while driving (driving or manoeuvring aids), while others provide comfort or infotainment functions.

The following contains general information about how data is processed within the vehicle. You will find additional information about the specific data which is downloaded, stored and transmitted to third parties and what it is used for in your vehicle under the keyword

"Data protection". This information is directly associated with the references for the functions in question contained in the corresponding vehicle handbook, or in the general terms and conditions of sale.

This information is also available online.

Vehicle operating data

The control units process the data used for the operation of the vehicle.

This data includes, for example:

- Information about the state of the vehicle (e.g. speed, travel time, lateral acceleration, wheel rotation rate, fastened seat belts display).

- Environmental conditions (e.g. temperature, rain sensor, distance sensor). As a general rule, this data is temporary, is not stored for longer than one operating cycle and is only used within the vehicle itself. The control units often record this data (including the vehicle's key). This function allows either the temporary or permanent storage of information about the state of the vehicle, stresses on components, servicing requirements, as well as events and technical errors.

Depending on the vehicle's equipment level, the data stored is as follows:

- Operating state of system components (e.g. filling level, tyre pressures, battery charge status).

- Faults and malfunctions in important system components (e.g. lamps, brakes).

- System reactions in specific driving situations (e.g. deployment of an airbag, triggering of stability control and braking systems).

- Information about events which have damaged the vehicle.

- For electric and rechargeable hybrid vehicles, the traction battery charge level and the estimated driving range.

In particular circumstances (e.g. if the vehicle has detected a malfunction), it may be necessary to record data which would otherwise simply not be stored.

When taking your vehicle in for servicing (e.g. repairs, maintenance), the stored operating data may be read along with the vehicle's

identification number and used if necessary. The personnel working for the servicing network (e.g. garages, manufacturers) or third parties (e.g. roadside assistance agents) may read the vehicle's data. This also applies to work carried out under warranty and quality assurance measures.

This data is generally read via the OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) port fitted by law to the vehicle. It is used to report on the technical state of the vehicle or its components and facilitates the diagnosis of malfunctions, in compliance with warranty obligations and for quality improvement. This data, in particular the information relating to stress on components, technical events, operator errors and other malfunctions, is sent to the Manufacturer, if necessary, along with the vehicle's identification number. The Manufacturer's liability may also be engaged. The Manufacturer may also use the operating data taken from the vehicle for product recalls. This data may also be used to check the customer's warranty and any claims made under warranty. Any malfunctions stored in the vehicle may be reset by an after-sales service company during servicing or repair work, or at your request.

Comfort and infotainment functions

Comfort settings and personalised settings may be saved in the vehicle and modified or reinitialised at any time.

Depending on the vehicle's equipment level, this may include:

  • Seat and steering wheel position settings.
  • Chassis and air conditioning settings.
  • Personalised settings such as the interior lighting.

You can enter your own data into the functions of your vehicle's audio and telematic system, as part of the selected functionalities.

Depending on the vehicle's equipment level, this may include:

  • Multimedia data such as music, videos or photos to be read by an integrated multimedia system.
  • Address book data to be used with an integrated hands-free system or with an integrated navigation system.

- Entered destinations.

- Data regarding the use of online services. This data for the comfort and infotainment functions may be stored locally in the vehicle or saved to a device that you have connected to the vehicle (e.g. smartphone, USB memory stick or MP3 player). Data that you have entered yourself may be deleted at any time.

This data may also be transmitted outside the vehicle at your request, particularly when using online services in line with the settings that you have selected.

Smartphone integration (e.g. Android Auto ^® or Apple ^® CarPlay ^® )

If your vehicle is equipped accordingly, you can connect your smartphone or another mobile device to the vehicle in order to operate it using the vehicle's integrated controls. Images and sounds from the smartphone can be transmitted through the audio and telematics system. Specific information is simultaneously sent to your smartphone. Depending on the type of integration, this includes data such as location, day/night mode and other general information about the vehicle. For more information, please refer to the user instructions for the vehicle or the audio and telematics system.

Integrating a smartphone allows you to use its applications, such as a navigation app or music player. No other integration between the smartphone and the vehicle is possible, in particular active access to vehicle data. How the data is processed subsequently is determined by the supplier of the application being used. The ability the change settings depends on the application in question and on the operating system installed on your smartphone.

Online services

If your vehicle is connected to a wireless network, data can be exchanged between your vehicle and other systems. Connection to a wireless network is made possible via a transmitter located in your vehicle or a mobile device that you have provided (e.g. smartphone). The online services can be used via this wireless connection. These include online services and applications (apps) provided to you by the Manufacturer or other suppliers.

Exclusive services

As regards the Manufacturer's online services, the corresponding functions are described by the Manufacturer in an appropriate medium (e.g. handbook, Manufacturer's website) and the information about data protection is provided. Personal data may be used for online services. The exchange of data for this purpose takes place over a secure connection, using for example the Manufacturer's dedicated computer systems. The collection, processing and use of personal data for the development of services are carried out solely on the basis of a legal authorisation, for example in the case of a legal emergency call system or a contractual agreement or else under a consent agreement.

You can activate or deactivate the services and functions (some may be chargeable) and, in some cases, the vehicle's entire connection to the wireless network. This does not include the statutory functions and services such as the emergency or assistance call system.

Third-party services

If you use online services provided by other (third-party) suppliers, these services are subject to the responsibility, the data protection and the terms

11

212

Vehicle data recording and privacy

and conditions of use of the supplier in question. The Manufacturer often has no influence over the content exchanged in this regard. Please therefore ensure that you are aware of the nature, extent and purpose of the collection and use of personal data as part of the third-party services provided by the service provider in question.
