MONITORING
32 The total distance is
displayed in zone 1
of
the screen and the trip
distance in zone 2
.
DISTANCE RECORDERS (A/B)

System for measuring the total distance
travelled by the vehicle during its
service life and the distance travelled in
a day or other period until it is reset to
zero by the driver.
Zero reset
With the ignition on, press the INFO
button for more than 2 seconds until
zeros appear. When the engine is
running, this indicates
the temperature of the
coolant.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
If the bar is close to the critical
position
located on the right, the temperature is
too high.
The symbol fl ashes when your engine
is overheating.

You must stop your vehicle as soon
as it is safe to do so.


Wait a few minutes before switching
off the engine.

Wait for the engine to cool before
topping up the level. The cooling
system is pressurised.
When the engine is
running
, this indicates
the distance which can
still be travelled with the
fuel remaining in the tank
based on the average
fuel consumption over
the last few miles/
kilometres travelled.
RANGE
When the range is less than 30 miles
(50 km)
, dashes are displayed.
Refuel as soon as possible. The display
of the range is updated.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the
pressure to drop.
When the pressure has dropped,
remove the cap and top up the level, if
necessary.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop. This fi gure may increase following a
change in the style of driving or the
relief, resulting in a reduction in the
current fuel consumption.
If you only add a few litres, the
value displayed will be incorrect.
Therefore, you must fi ll the tank
whenever possible.
When you disconnect the
battery, the previous fuel
consumption data is lost and the
value displayed will be different from
that displayed before the battery was
disconnected. The distance displayed
must be considered an approximate
indication.

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.

AUTOMATIC AIR
CONDITIONING

Automatic operation


)
Set the temperature control dial 1
to
the temperature required.

)
Place the air fl ow control dial 2
in
the "AUTO"
position.

)
Place the air distribution adjustment
dial 3
in the "AUTO"
position. When the engine is cold, to avoid an
excessive distribution of cold air, the
ventilation will reach its optimum level
gradually.
On entering the vehicle, the interior
temperature may be much colder (or
warmer) than the comfort tempera-
ture. There is no need to change the
temperature displayed in order to
reach the comfort required rapidly.
The automatic regulation of the air
conditioning will operate to correct
the temperature difference as quickly
as possible.

)
when the temperature is set to mini-
mum (Rapid cooling), the air recir-
culation is activated and the air con-
ditioning operates.
The system controls the air distribu-
tion, the fl ow, the temperature and the
air intake to ensure the level of comfort
selected and adequate air circulation in
the passenger compartment. No further
action on your part is required.
