Hill Start Assist - CITROEN C4 Handbook

HILL START ASSIST

(with 6-speed electronic
gearbox system)
To aid starting on a gradient, your
vehicle is equipped with a system that
keeps it temporarily immobilised.
It keeps the brakes applied for a brief
moment, precisely the time taken
for moving your foot from the brake
pedal to the accelerator pedal.
This function is only active when
the vehicle is completely stationary,
with your foot on the brake pedal, in
particular conditions on a slope.
Display of these warning lamps
indicates a malfunctioning of the hill
start assist function.
