Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. During   acceleration   change   up   early.
The
  gear   shift   indicator   invites   you   engage   the   most   suitable   gear:   as  
s

oon   as   the   indication   is   displayed   in   the   instrument   panel,   follow   it  
s

traight   away.
Control the use of your electrical
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it by   opening   the   windows   and   air   vents   before   using   the   air   conditioning.
Above
  30   mph   (50   km/h),   close   the   windows   and   leave   the   air   vents
 ope

n.
Remember
  to   make   use   of   equipment   that   can   help   keep   the
 t

emperature   in   the   passenger   compartment   down   (sunroof   and   window
 b

linds...).
To
  save   energy,   do   not   set   the   air   conditioning   at   too   low   a   temperature.
As
  soon   as   the   desired   temperature   has   been   reached,   limit   the   use   of
 t

he   air   conditioning,   except   if   regulation   is   automatic.
Switch
  off   the   demisting   and   defrosting   controls   as   soon   as   you   consider
 p

ossible.
Switch
  off   the   heated   seat   as   soon   as   possible.
Switch
  off   the   headlamps   and   foglamp   when   the   level   of   light   does   not  
r

equire   their   use.
Avoid
  running   the   engine   before   moving   off,   particularly   in   winter;   your  
v

ehicle   will   warm   up   much   faster   while   driving.
As
  a   passenger,   if   you   avoid   connecting   your   multimedia   devices  
(

film,   music,   video   game...),   you   will   contribute   towards   limiting   the  
c

onsumption   of   electrical   energy,   and   so   of   fuel.
Disconnect
  your   portable   devices   before   leaving   the   vehicle.
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
With
 
an
 
electronic
 
gearbox,
 
do
 
not
 
press
 
the
 
accelerator
 
pedal
 
heavily
 
o

r
 s

uddenly.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather t han   the   brake   pedal,   and   press   the   accelerator   progressively.   These  
p

ractices   contribute   towards   a   reduction   in   fuel   consumption   and   CO
2
emissions
 
and
 
also
 
help
 
reduce
 
the
 
background
 
traffic
 
noise.
If
 
your
 
vehicle
 
has
 
cruise
 
control,
 
make
 
use
 
of
 
the
 
system
 
at
 
speeds
 
a

bove
 
25
 
mph
 
(40
 
km/h)
 
when
 
the
 
traffic
 
is
 
flowing
 
well.

Indicator and warning lamps
Certain warning lamps may come on in one   of   two   modes:   fixed   (continuous)   or  
f

lashing.
Only
  by   relating   the   type   of   illumination  
t

o the operation of the vehicle can it
be
  determined   whether   the   situation   is  
n

ormal   or   a   fault   has   occurred.   In   the  
e

vent   of   a   fault,   the   illumination   of   the  
w

arning   lamp   may   be   accompanied   by  
a

  message.

Certain warning lamps come on for a few s

v

ehicle's   ignition   is   switched   on.
When
  the   engine   is   started,   these   same

If
  they   remain   on,   before   moving   off,   refer   to   the  
s

Associated warnings
The switching on of certain warning lamps may be   accompanied   by   an   audible   signal   and   a

The
  warning   lamps   may   come   on   continuously  
(

fixed)   or   flash.
When

Engine oil level indicator*
on versions fitted with an electric oil level
indicator,  the   state   of   the   engine   oil   level   is  
d

isplayed   in   the   instrument   panel   for   a   few  
s

econds,   after   the   servicing   information.
The level read will only be correct if
the
  vehicle   is   on   level   ground   and   the  
e

ngine   has   been   off   for   more   than  
3

0 minutes.
Oil level correct
Oil level incorrect
This is indicated by the display of the message "Oil   level   incorrect"   in   the   instrument   panel  
s

creen,   accompanied   by   the   service   warning  
l

amp   and   an   audible   signal.
If
  the   low   oil   level   is   confirmed   by   a   check   using  
t

he   dipstick,   the   level   must   be   topped   up   to  
a

void   damage   to   the   engine.
Oil level indicator fault
This is signalled by the display of the message "Oil   level   measurement   invalid"   in   the  
in

strument
 pan
el.
Contact
  a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop.
Refer
 
to
 
the
 
"Checking
 
levels"
 
section.
*
 
Depending
 
on
 
version. In the event of a fault with the electric indicator,
the
  oil   level   is   no   longer   monitored.
If
  the   system   is   faulty,   you   must   check   the  
e

ngine   oil   level   using   the   manual   dipstick  
l

ocated   under   the   bonnet.

Total distance recorder
System which measures the total distance travelled   by   the   vehicle   during   its   life.
The total distance recorder is displayed
continuously
  in   the   instrument   panel,   as   soon  
a

s   the   driver's   door   is   opened,   as   well   as   when  
t

he   vehicle   is   locked   or   unlocked.
To
  conform   to   legislation   in   the  
c

ountry   you   are   crossing,   change   the  
u

nits   of   distance   (miles   or   km)   in   the  
"C

otor
  by   turning   the   key   to   position   3

  ignition   on,   to   operate   the

Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the instrument   panel   then   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.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can   stay   on   for   a   longer   period.   When  
t

he   engine   is   hot,   the   warning   lamp  
d

oes   not   come   on. In
  temperate   conditions,   do   not   leave  
t

he   engine   at   idle   to   warm   up   but   move  
o

ff   straight   away   and   drive   at   moderate  
s

peed.
Never   leave   the   engine   running   in  
a

n   enclosed   area   without   adequate  
v

entilation:
 in
ternal
 c
ombustion
 e

ngines   emit   toxic   exhaust   gases,  
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
the
  mechanical   components   of   your  
v

ehicle,   engine   and   gearbox,   it   is  
n

ecessary   to   leave   the   engine   running  
f

or   4   minutes   before   moving   off.
If
  the   engine   does   not   start   straight  
a

way,   switch   off   the   ignition.   Wait   a   few

Operation
Gear shift indicator
System which reduces fuel consumption by advising the driver to change up, on vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox.T he   system   adapts   its   gear   change  
r

ecommendation   according   to   the  
d

riving   conditions   (slope,   load,   ...)   and  
t

he   demands   of   the   driver   (power,  
a

cceleration,   braking,   ...).
The
  system   never   suggests:
-
 
e
ngaging   first   gear,
-
 enga

ging
 r
everse
 g
ear,
-
 
e
ngaging   a   lower   gear.
Example:
-
 
Y
ou   are   in   third   gear.
Depending
  on   the   driving   situation   and   your  
v

ehicle's   equipment,   the   system   may   advise  
y

ou   to   skip   one   (or   more)   gear(s).   You   can  
f

ollow   this   instruction   without   engaging   the  
i

ntermediate
 g
ears.
-
 
Y
ou   press   the   accelerator   pedal.
-
 
T
he   system   may   suggest   that   you   engage  
a

  higher   gear.
The
  information   appears   in   the   instrument  
p

anel   in   the   form   of   an   arrow,   accompanied   by  
t

he   recommended   gear.
On
  certain   Diesel   versions   with   manual  
g

earbox,   the   system   may   suggest  
c

hanging   into   neutral   (N is displayed in
the
  instrument   panel)   so   that   the   engine  
c

an   go   into   standby   (STOP   mode  
w

ith   Stop   &   Start),   in   certain   driving  
c

onditions.
The
  gear   engagement   recommendations   must  
n

ot   be   considered   compulsory.   In   fact,   the  
c

onfiguration   of   the   road,   the   amount   of   traffic  
a

nd   safety   remain   determining   factors   when  
c

hoosing   the   best   gear.   Therefore,   the   driver  
r

emains   responsible   for   deciding   whether   or   not  
t

o   follow   the   advice   given   by   the   system.
This
  system   cannot   be   deactivated.
