Limit the causes of excess consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle;place the heaviest items in the bottomof the boot, as close as possible to therear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicleand reduce wind resistance (roof bars,roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Usea roof box in preference.

Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.

At the end of winter, remove snowtyres and refi t your summer tyres.


Observe the recommendations on maintenance

Check the tyre pressures regularly,when cold, referring to the label in thedoor aperture, 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.

Don't forget the spare wheel and thetyres on any trailer or caravan.


Have your vehicle serviced regularly(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and ob-serve the schedule of operations rec-ommended by the manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoidany overfl ow.


At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is onlyafter the fi rst 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres)that you will see the fuel consumption set-tle down to a consistent average.

COMFORT
44 For even air distribution, take care not
to obstruct the exterior air intake grille
located at the bottom of the windscreen,
the vents, the air outlets under the front
seats and the air extractor located be-
hind the fl aps in the boot. The water formed by the air conditioning
condensation is discharged via an open-
ing provided for this purpose. Therefore,
a puddle of water may form underneath
the vehicle when stationary.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and have it checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
AUTOMATIC REGULATION OF
THE DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING
Do not cover the temperature and hu-
midity sensor 2
and the sunshine sen-
sor 7
.
They are required for regulation of the
air conditioning.
Advice on operation

In hot weather, in order to obtain in-
tense ventilation, it is advisable to
use vents 1
and 4
only.
If, when the vehicle has been parked
in the sun for a long time, the interior
temperature remains very high, fi rst
ventilate the passenger compart-
ment for a few minutes. Switch off the air conditioning
when the climatic conditions
permit. Use of the automatic regulation of the
air conditioning is recommended. It per-
mits automatic and optimised control of
all of the following functions: air fl ow,
passenger compartment temperature
and air distribution, by means of various
sensors (ambient temperature, interior
temperature, sunshine), so preventing
the need for you to change your set-
tings other than the value displayed. In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load on a
steep gradient in hot weather), switch-
ing off the air conditioning saves engine
power and therefore improves the tow-
ing capacity.
Close the windows to benefi t from the
full effectiveness of the air conditioning.
Ensure that the passenger compart-
ment fi lter is in good condition. Have
the fi lter elements replaced periodically.
If you drive in a dusty environment, re-
place it twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and is not harmful to
the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.
