Range
This is the number of kilometres (or miles) that ca n still
be travelled on the fuel remaining in the tank.
When the distance remaining to be travelled is less
than 25 km (around 15 miles), only three dashes will
be displayed.
After a re-initialisation of the trip computer, the indica-
tion of range only becomes significant after a certain
length of time.
Average consumption
This is the relationship between the fuel consumed
and the distance travelled since the last time the tr ip
computer was reset to zero.
Instantaneous consumption
This is the result based on consumption recorded in

the last two seconds.This function only operates ab ove
30 km/h (approx. 20 mph).
Average speed
This is the result (since the last time the trip compute r
was reset to zero), from dividing the distance travelled
by the time taken (time with the ignition switched on).
Distance travelled
This is the number of kilometres (or miles) travelled
since the last time the trip computer was reset to
zero.

of two driving modes :
- automatic mode,
- manual mode, with levers under the steering wheel 1.
Mode selection :
- automatic mode : selector 2 in position A.
- manual mode : selector 2 in position M.
Note : in automatic mode, instant manual operation
is possible any time you action one of the levers 1. Selection position-
The selector position is displayed in the instrument
panel, on the left on multifunction screens A and C
and on the right on multifunction screen DT.
- A background-lit position grille associated with the
selector allows you to view the position selected.
When the ignition is on, lighting of the SERVICE wa rning lamp, accompanied by a sound signal and the
message « Gearbox faulty » indicates a malfunction. Urgently contact a CITROËN dealer.
For safety :
• Position N can only be disengaged if you are pressing the brake pedal.
• When a door is opened, a sound signal is heard if the selector is not in position
N.
• If the gearbox is in position N but the selector position is different, reposition the sele ctor on

To select automatic
driving mode :
- Move the selector to position A.
The warning lamp A lights up in
the instrument panel to confirm
the selection.
The gearbox then functions in au-
tomatic mode, without any inter-
vention on your part.
It constantly selects the gear that
is best suited to the following pa-
rameters :
- driving style,
- road profile,
- optimum fuel consumption. Temporary manual operation
when in automatic mode
- By pulling either of the levers
« + » or « - », you can exer-
cise temporary control over the
changing of gears. The request
to change gear will be taken into
account. You will still be in auto-
matic mode. The warning lamp

Observations :
- If the vehicle stops or reduces
speed (for example when ap-
proaching a stop sign), the gear-
box changes down automatically
to first gear.
- In manual mode, it is not neces- sary to release the accelerator
completely during gear changes.
- A request to change gear is ac- cepted only if the engine speed
permits it.
- For safety reasons, depending on the engine speed, a change
down may be performed auto-
matically.
