"DCS" GEARBOX
The six-speed robotised gearbox of-
fers a choice between the comfort of
automatic regulation or the pleasure of
manual gear changing.
This gearbox enables you to access
three driving modes:
- a manual mode for changing of the
gears by the driver using the steer-
ing wheel controls or the gear lever,
- a " Normal " automatic mode for
economical control of the gears
(everyday use),
- a " Sport " automatic mode which
permits a more dynamic style of
driving, with improved acceleration
and optimised engine braking. When you move the lever in the gate
to select a position, the corresponding
indicator light or message is displayed
on the instrument panel.

P. Park.

R. Reverse.

N. Neutral.

D. Drive (Automatic mode).

NORMAL. Normal mode.

SPORT. Sport mode.

FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM
WITH ELECTRONIC CONTROL
4WD AUTO (position 1)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive and provides optimum traction re-
gardless of the level of grip.
This is the vehicle's normal and regular
operating mode, the distribution of the
torque between the front and rear axles
is controlled automatically.
The distribution favours the front wheels,
the transfer of torque to the rear wheels
is managed electronically by the control
unit in relation to the level of grip, so
guaranteeing optimum road holding.
Three transmission modes are avail-
able and can be selected manually
by the driver in accordance with his
requirements.
You can change transmission mode
when stationary or while driving at a
speed below 60 mph (100 km/h) .
The transmission mode can be selected
by turning the control A .
Display on the instrument panel
The transmission mode is displayed in
the form of an intermittent display on
the instrument panel display when the
transmission mode is selected.
Selecting the transmission mode
The selection of this mode is recom-
mended when the level of grip permits.
2WD (position 3)
The vehicle operates with front two
wheel drive.
This mode corresponds to use on a tar-
macked road on which the driver con-
siders that there is no risk of loss of grip
(dry road).
4WD LOCK (position 2)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive in this mode also.
It is recommended when grip is particularly
poor or diffi cult (sand, mud, slopes, ...).
System which permits the selection of
a transmission mode in relation to the
driving conditions.

Programming

 Press button 1 .

 Set the programmed speed by ac-
celerating to the required speed,
then press button 2 "COAST SET" .
CRUISE CONTROL
The controls of this system are grouped
together on the steering wheel.

1. "ON/OFF" button: activation/deacti-
vation of the cruise control mode.

2. "COAST SET" button: storing of a
driving speed and decreasing of the
cruising speed.

3. "ACC RES" button: increasing of
the cruising speed and recalling of
the stored speed.

4. "CANCEL" button: switching off of
the cruise control. When you press button
1 , the "CRUISE"
indicator light comes on on the instru-
ment panel.
Steering wheel controls Display on the instrument panel
The cruise control cannot, in any cir-
cumstances, take the place of the
need to comply with speed limits or
of the vigilance and responsibility of
the driver.
System which permits automatic main-
taining of the vehicle speed at the value
programmed by the driver, without any
action on the accelerator pedal.

The cruise control is
switched on
manually: the vehicle speed must be
25 mph (40 km/h) minimum and sec-
ond gear must be engaged in the case
of a manual gearbox.

The cruise control is switched off man-
ually, by an action on the brake or clutch
pedal or if the ASC system is triggered.

The programmed speed can be ex-
ceeded temporarily by pressing the
accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply release the accelerator pedal.

Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.

CHECKING LEVELS Brake fluid level To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.
Oil level
The reading will only be correct
if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for
more than 15 minutes.
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the oil
level indicator on the instrument panel,
or using the dipstick. The brake fl uid level should be
between the "MAX" and "MIN"
marks.
If it is not, check the brake pad
wear.
Draining the circuit
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
Coolant level
The coolant level must be
measured when the engine is
cold and should be between
the "LOW" and "FULL" marks.
When the engine is warm, the tempera-
ture of the coolant is regulated by the fan.
This can operate with the ignition off.
On vehicles which are fi tted with a
particle emission fi lter, the fan may
operate after the vehicle has been
switched off, even if the engine is
cold.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying
out any work.
Wash-wipe and headlamp wash * fluid
Check the fl uid level regularly,
using the gauge.
* According to country.
Draining the engine
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.
Oil specifi cation
The oil must correspond to your en-
gine and conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations. Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations and
fulfi l the DOT4 standards.
Draining the circuit
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the manu-
facturer's recommendations.
Fluid specifi cation
This fl uid must conform to the manufac-
turer's recommendations for optimum
cleaning.
Power steering fluid level
Check the fl uid level with the engine at
idle.
Check that the power steering fl uid
level is always between the "MAX" and
"MIN" marks and top up if necessary.
Fluid specifi cation
This fl uid must conform to the manufac-
turer's recommendations.
Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have the
corresponding circuit checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
When working under the bonnet, take
care as certain areas of the engine may
be extremely hot (risk of burns).
