DRIVING
In the event of a fault with the sys-
tem, the "ECO OFF"
switch warning
lamp fl ashes then comes on con-
tinuously.
Have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode,
the vehicle may stall: all the instru-
ment panel warning lamps come on.
It is then necessary to switch off the
ignition and start the engine again
using the key.


Operating fault


The Stop & Start system
makes use of advanced tech-
nology. For any work on the sys-
tem go to a qualifi ed workshop with
the skills and equipment required,
which a CITROËN dealer is able to
provide.

Before doing anything under
the bonnet, deactivate the
Stop & Start system to avoid
any risk of injury resulting from au-
tomatic operation of START mode.


Maintenance

This system requires a 12 V battery
with a special specifi cation and tech-
nology (reference numbers available
from CITROËN dealers).
Fitting a battery not listed by
CITROËN introduces the risk of mal-
function of the system.
To charge the battery, use a 12 V
charger and observe the polarity.

DRIVING
In the event of a steep descent or
under excessive acceleration, the
speed limiter (which does not act
on the brakes) may not be able to
prevent the vehicle from exceeding
the programmed speed.
Use of a fl oor mat other than that
recommended by CITROËN may
affect the normal operation of the
accelerator pedal and hamper the
operation of the speed limiter.
Floor mats approved by CITROËN
are fi tted with a 3rd fi xing located in
the pedal area to avoid any risk of
interference with the pedals.

Suspension / Resumption



)
Press on button 3
.
This action causes the information
"PAUSE"
to appear in zone A
of the
instrument panel.
This action does not cancel the
memorised maximum speed which
remains displayed in zone A
of the
instrument panel.


Overriding the programmed
speed
The accelerator pedal has an end-
of-travel switch. In order to exceed
the memorised maximum speed at
any time, you can press the pedal
all the way down. While the speed
is being exceeded, the speed dis-
played in zone A
will fl ash. You have
only to release the accelerator pedal
to return below the maximum speed,
to restore the function.
The speed will also fl ash if the speed
limiter is not able to prevent the vehi-
cle from exceeding the programmed
speed (e.g. on a steep descent or
under excessive acceleration).
To reactivate the speed limiter, re-
lease the accelerator to slow to a
speed lower than the programmed
speed.


Return to normal driving



)
Either press on button 5
.

)
Or select the speed limiter func-
tion.

)
Or stop the engine.



Operating fault

If there is a fault, a message is
displayed accompanied by an au-
dible signal and illumination of the
SERVICE
warning lamp.
Have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

CHECKING LEVELS
















Oil level


The check is carried out either
when the ignition is switched
on using the oil level indicator
on the instrument panel, or
using the dipstick.
This manual check will only be cor-
rect if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level be-
tween two services (or oil changes).
CITROËN recommends that you
check the level, and top up if neces-
sary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms).
After topping up the oil, the check
when switching on the ignition with
the oil level indicator in the instru-
ment panel is not valid during the
30 minutes after topping up.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have
the corresponding system checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
Check all of these levels regularly
and top them up if necessary, unless
otherwise indicated.

Take care when working under the
bonnet, as certain areas of the en-
gine may be extremely hot (risk of
burns).


Engine oil change
Refer to the servicing booklet for
details of the interval for this opera-
tion.
In order to maintain the reli-
ability of the engine and emis-
sion control system, the use
of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.

Oil specifi cation
The oil must be the correct grade
for your engine and conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.












Brake fluid level

The brake fl uid level should
be close to the "MAX" mark.
If it is not, check the brake
pad wear.

Changing the fl uid
Refer to the servicing booklet for de-
tails of the interval for this operation.

Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations
and meet the DOT4 standard.












Power steering or power
steering and suspension
fluid level
For topping up, it is necessary
to go to a CITROËN dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.















Dipstick
There are two marks on
the dipstick:

A
= max; never exceed
this level,

B
= min; top up the oil
level via the oil fi ller cap,
using the correct grade of
oil for your engine.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

)
Connect the compressor's elec-
tric plug to the vehicle's 12 V
socket again.

)
Start the vehicle again and leave
the engine running.

)
Adjust the pressure using the
compressor (to infl ate: switch A

in position "1"
; to defl ate:
switch A
in position "0"
and
press button B
), in accordance
with the vehicle's tyre pressure
label (located on the door aper-
ture on the left-hand side), then
remember to check that the leak
has been plugged correctly (no
further loss of pressure after
several miles [kilometres]).

)
Remove the compressor, then
store the whole kit.

)
Drive at reduced speed (50 mph
[80 km/h] max) limiting the dis-
tance travelled to approximately
120 miles (200 km).

)
Visit a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop as soon as
possible to have the tyre repaired
or replaced by a technician. Take care as sealant cartridge
contains ethylene-glycol. This
product is harmful if swallowed
and causes irritation to the eyes.
Keep it out of reach of children.
The expiry date of the sealant is
indicated on the base of the car-
tridge.
The cartridge is designed for a sin-
gle use; even if only partly used, it
must be replaced.
After use, do not discard the car-
tridge into the environment, take it
to a CITROËN dealer or an autho-
rised waste disposal site.
Do not forget to obtain a new car-
tridge, available from CITROËN
dealers or a qualifi ed workshop.
If the vehicle is fi tted with tyre under-
infl ation detection, the tyre under-
infl ation warning lamp will remain on
after the wheel has been repaired
until the system is reinitialised by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
