Citroen C3: Driving / Lane Departure Warning System
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
This system, using a camera which recognises
solid or broken lines, detects the involuntary
crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings on
the ground.
If the driver's attention drops and the speed
is higher than 37 mph (60 km/h), the system
triggers a warning if there is an unexpected
change of direction.
This system is particularly useful on motorways
and main roads.
Activation/Deactivation
- Activation/deactivation via this button or the
touch screen, depending on version.
The indicator lamp comes on when the function
is activated.
The state of the system is memorised when the

Detection

indicator is activated and for approximately 20
