(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Average fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Distance travelled
(miles or km) Average speed
(mph or km/h)
This indicates the distance which
can still be travelled with the fuel re-
maining in the tank based on the av-
erage fuel consumption over the last
few miles (kilometres) travelled. This fi gure may increase follow-
ing a change in the style of driving
or terrain, resulting in a signifi cant
change in the current fuel con-
sumption.
When the range falls below 20 miles
(30 km), dashes are displayed. After
fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel,
the range is recalculated and is dis-
played when it exceeds 60 miles
(100 km).
If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a CITROËN dealer. This function is only displayed
above 20 mph (30 km/h).
This is the average fuel consump-
tion during the last few seconds.
This is the average fuel consump-
tion since the last trip computer zero
reset.
This indicates the distance travelled
since the last trip computer zero reset. This is the average speed calculat-
ed since the last trip computer zero
reset (ignition on).

The warning lamp only comes on
temporarily in the case of the follow-
ing minor faults:
- incorrect closing of the doors, boot, rear screen and bonnet,
- fl at remote control battery,
- low tyre pressure,

In the case of major faults, the warn-
ing lamp remains on until the operating
fault is rectifi ed, contact a CITROËN
dealer as soon as possible. Braking

the occurrence of a fault in
one of the braking systems:
- signifi cant drop in the fl uid level in the circuit,
- electronic brake force distribu- tion (EBFD) faulty (simultane-
ous lighting of the ABS warning
lamp),
stop the vehicle immediately and as
safely as possible.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.

nent lighting of this warning

Maintenance indicator
System which informs the driver
when the next service is due, in
accordance with the manufacturer's
servicing schedule.
The point at which the service is due
is calculated from the last indicator
zero reset. It is determined by two
parameters:
- the distance travelled,
- the time elapsed since the last service.
More than 620 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the spanner symboli-
sing the service operations comes on.
The distance recorder display line
indicates the distance remaining
before the next service is due.

Example: 1 900 miles remain before
the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates: 5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on,
the spanner is switched off ; the
distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The display then indicates
the total and trip distances.
Less than 620 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due

Example: 500 miles remain before
the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the distance recorder
resumes its normal operation. The
spanner remains on to indicate that
a service must be carried out soon. Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on,
the spanner fl ashes
to indicate that the service must be
carried out as soon as possible.

Example: the service is overdue by
300 miles.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the distance recorder
resumes its normal operation. The
spanner remains lit .
The distance remaining may be
weighted by the time factor, depen-
ding on the driver's driving habits.
Therefore, the spanner may also
come on if you have exceeded the
two year service interval.
