Switching to automated mode
Automated mode
After using the sequential mode, you
can return to the automated mode by
selecting position D .

“D” appears on the instrument panel
display.
The gearbox then operates in auto-ac-
tive mode, without any action on the
part of the driver.
It continuously selects the gear most
suited to the following parameters:
- driving style,
- road characteristics,
- vehicle load.
To optimise driving comfort and obtain
the most suitable gear, avoid sharp var-
iations in the pressure on the accelera-
tor pedal. “Auto sequential” mode
In the automated mode, you can
resume control temporarily at any time
using the steering wheel controls.
The use of these controls permits man-
ual selection of the gears in situations
which require a faster changedown
than that offered in automated mode
(arrival at a roundabout, exit from a car
park with a steep gradient, overtaking,
etc.).
The gearbox engages the gear re-
quested if the engine speed permits it.
The gear engaged appears.
To return to the automated mode, press
the back of the
“+/OFF” control for ap-
proximately 2 seconds.
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you
can:
- move to position N to leave the
gearbox in neutral.
- leave a gear engaged, such as fi rst or reverse.
In both cases, it is imperative that you
apply the handbrake to immobilise the
vehicle. Operating anomaly
With the ignition on, if the message

“Slow down” or
“Maintenance
required” appears on the multifunction
display, this indicates a gearbox mal-
function.
When a message is displayed, carry
out the following operations:
- slow down and stop your vehicle in a safe place,
- place the lever in position N and let
the engine run,
- open the bonnet to allow the engine to cool.
If the message disappears for a long
period, you can set off again.
If the message remains displayed or
appears frequently, contact a CITROËN
dealer without delay.
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal
gently to engage the gear.
At low speeds, when approaching a
stop or traffi c lights for example, the
gearbox changes down to fi rst gear au-
tomatically.
