Eco-driving
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit
the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof
b
ars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.
Remove
roof bars and roof racks after use.
At
the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry
out this check in particular:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-
a
t each change of season,
-
a
fter a long period out of use.
Don't
forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have
your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and
o
bserve the schedule of operations recommended by the manufacturer.
When
refuelling, do not continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to a
void
any
over flow.
At
the
wheel
of
your
new
vehicle,
it
is
only
after the first 1 800 miles
(
3 000
kilometres)
that
you
will
see
the
fuel
consumption settle down to
a
consistent
average.

On
a long journey, a break every two hours is
s
trongly
re
commended.
In
difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate
t
he need to brake and increase the distance
f
rom other vehicles. If
you are obliged to drive through water:
-
c
heck that the depth of water does not
e
xceed 15 cm, taking account of waves
t
hat might be generated by other users,
-
d
eactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
d
rive as slowly as possible without
s
talling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph
(
10 km/h),
-
d

e
ngine.
On
leaving the flooded road, as soon as
c
ircumstances allow, make several light brake
a
pplications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If
in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.Important!

Starting the engine
F With a petrol engine, operate the starter m
otor by turning the key to position 3
without
pressing the accelerator pedal,
u
ntil the engine starts. Once the engine is
r
unning, release the key. F
W

eng
ine
p
re-heating
s
ystem.

F
d
epress the clutch pedal fully (manual
g

s
uch as carbon monoxide. Danger of
i
ntoxication and death.
In very severe wintry conditions
(
temperatures below -23°C), to ensure
t
he correct operation and durability of
t
he mechanical components of your
v
ehicle, engine and gearbox, it is n
ecessary to leave the engine running f
