It is only possible to change from one gear to
another if the vehicle speed and engine speedpermit; other wise, the gearbox will operate
temporarily in automatic mode. This s

Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can engageposition Por Nto place the gearbox in neutral. In both cases, apply the parking brake

In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel
a substantial knock when changing from Pto R
and from N
to R
. This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (10 0 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.

- you unfasten the driver's seat belt,
- the speed of the vehicle exceeds 7 mph
(11 k m/h) with the electronic gearbox system,
- some special conditions (battery charge,engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine
is needed for control of a system.
Th
e "ECO"
warning lamp flashes for
a few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is per fectly normal.
With a manual gearbox in STOP mode,if you engage a gear without fully depressing the clutch pedal, a message is displayed asking you to fully depressthe clutch pedal so that the engine can restart.

System which prevents the vehicle fromexceeding the speed programmed by the driver.
When the programmed speed limit is reached, pressing the accelerator pedal in the normalmanner no longer has any effect.
The speed limiter is switched onmanually:
it requires a programmed speed of at least
20 mph (30 km/h). The speed limiter is switched off by manual foperation of the control.
The programmed speed can be exceeded
temporaril
y by pressing the accelerator firmly.
To return to the programmed speed, simply slow down to a speed below the programmed speed.
The programmed speed remains in the memorywhen the ignition is switched off.

)Switch the cruise control back on by pressing button 4again.



Exceeding the programmed speed

Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the programmed speed results
in flashing of this speed in the screen.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or unintentional
deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of the speed.


Leaving cruise control mode

In the event of a cruise control malfunction,
the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the
dashes. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
When the cruise control is switched on,be careful if you maintain the pressure on one of the programmed speedchanging buttons: this may result in avery rapid change in the speed of your vehicle. Do not use the cruise control on slippery roads or in heavy traffic. On a steep descent, the cruise control will not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmedspeed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
