Manual gear changing

In the automated mode, you can take over
control temporarily at any time using the
steering mounted controls.
The use of these controls permits manual
selection of the gears in situations which
require a faster change down than that offered
in automated mode (arrival at a roundabout,
exit from a car park with a steep gradient,
over taking...).
The gearbox engages the gear requested if
the engine speed permits it. The gear engaged
appears.
To return to the automated mode, do one of the
following:


- press the back of the "+/OFF"
steering
mounted control 3
for approximately
2 seconds,

- move the gear lever quickly towards
position +/-
and then return it to position D
,

- stop the vehicle.




Stopping the vehicle
Operating fault

With the ignition on, if the message "Slow
down"
or "Service required"
appears in
the instrument panel screen, this indicates a
gearbox malfunction.
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 P
and let the
engine run,

- open the bonnet to allow the engine to
cool.

Driving





Four wheel drive system

System which permits the selection of a transmission mode in relation to the driving conditions.
Three transmission modes are available and can be selected manually by the driver in accordance with his requirements.
You can change transmission mode when
stationary or while driving.
The transmission mode can be selected by
turning the control A
.


Selecting the transmission
mode

4WD AUTO (position 1)

The vehicle operates with four wheel drive and
provides optimum traction for all levels 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 providing
optimum road holding.


4WD LOCK (position 2)

The vehicle operates with four wheel drive in
this mode also.
It is recommended when grip is particularly
poor or difficult (sand, mud, slopes, ...).


2WD (position 3)

The vehicle operates with front two wheel drive.
This is suitable for use on a tarmac roads or
where the driver considers that there is no risk
of loss of grip (dry road).
Display in the instrument panel

The transmission mode is displayed in the
form of an intermittent display in the instrument
panel screen when the transmission mode is
selected. The selection of this mode is
recommended when the level of grip
permits.

Driving

As the engine torque is applied to all
four wheels, the condition of the tyres
has a considerable impact on the
per formance of the vehicle.
Ensure that all four tyres are in good
condition.
Avoid driving the vehicle in sandy or
muddy areas or in other areas in which
the wheels could spin.
Spinning the wheels places the
transmission components under
pressure and could cause a serious
malfunction.
Do not drive the vehicle through deep
water.
Avoid driving over excessively uneven
terrain (risk of scraping under the body
or of grounding on crossing a bridge).


Operating faults

If the selected transmission mode display
flashes, the vehicle switches automatically to
front "2WD"
transmission mode.
It is then no longer possible to select the
transmission mode using the control A
.
If the message "SLOW DOWN" is displayed on
the instrument panel, let the transmission cool
down then wait for the display to clear before
setting off again.
If "4WD" and "LOCK" are displayed alternately
and if "SERVICE REQUIRED" is displayed in
the instrument panel, the system has failed and
the safety system has been activated.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.

Have your vehicle towed on a
flatbed.

The vehicle must not be towed with the
front or rear wheels on the ground even
if it is in front "2WD" (2 wheel drive)
mode.


If the replacement of a tyre is
necessary on 4-wheel drive versions,
it is recommended that all four tyres be
replaced at the same time, ensuring
that the same make, model and size is
used on all wheels.
This is because using tyres of different
sizes, structure or rate of wear could
damage transmission components.

Driving





Cruise control


System which automatically maintains 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 at least 25 mph
(40 km/h) and second gear or higher must be
engaged in the case of a manual gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off
manually, by
an action on the brake or clutch pedal or if the
ASC system is triggered.
The programmed speed can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the
need to comply with speed limits or of the
vigilance and responsibility of the driver. The controls of this system are grouped
together on the steering wheel.


1.
"ON/OFF"
button: activation / deactivation
of the cruise control mode.

2.
"COAST SET"
