Stop & Start 
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode 
 The  "ECO"warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the engine goes into standby:
-   with the electronic
gearboxsystem,at speeds below 5 mph (8 km/h), press 
the brake pedal or put the gear lever inposition N.
If your vehicle is fitted with the system, a timecounter calculates the sum of the periods in STOP mode during a journey. It resets itself to
zero every time the ignition is switched on with 
the STA R T/STOP button.  
Never refuel with the engine in STOPmode; you must switch off the ignition with the STA R T/STOP button.  
For your comfor t, during parkingmaoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear.STOP mode does not affect the functionality of the vehicle, such as for example, braking, power steering...
 
 
Special cases: STOP mode not available 
 STOP mode is not invoked when: 
   
 
-  the driver's door is open, 
   
-   the driver's seat belt is not fastened, 
   
-   the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph(10 km/h) since the last engine start usingthe START/STOP button,
   
-   the electric parking brake is applied or 
being applied, 
   
-  the engine is needed to maintain acomfor table temperature in the passenger compartment,
   
-  demisting is active,
   
-  some special conditions (battery charge, engine temperature, braking assistance,ambient temperature...) where the engine isneeded to assure control of a system.  
  In this case, the  "ECO" 
 warning
lamp flashes for a few seconds thengoes off.  The 
Stop & Star t system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
The engine restar ts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restar t takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Star t system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
This operation is per fectly normal.

Operating fault 
 
In the event of a fault with the system, the
"ECO OFF" 
 switch warning lamp flashes thencomes on continuously.
  Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or aqualified workshop. 
  In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall. It is then necessary to switch 
off the ignition and star t the engine again using 
the STA R T/STOP button.
   
Before doing anything under the bonnet,deactivate the Stop & Start system toavoid any risk of injury resulting from automatic operation of START mode.
  This s
ystem requires a 12 V battery with a special specification and technology (reference numbers available from CITROËN dealers). 
  Fitting a battery not listed by CITROËN
introduces the risk of malfunction of the system. 
  For charging, use a 12 V charger and do not
reverse the polarity.
   
Maintenance
 
 
The Stop & Star t system makes use of advanced technology. For any work onthe system go to a qualified workshop with the skills and equipment required, which a CITROËN dealer is ableto provide.

Checks  
12 V battery 
The battery does not require any maintenance. 
However, check that the terminals 
are clean and correctl
y tightened,
particularly in summer and winter. 
  When carrying out work on the battery, refer 
to the "Practical information" section for 
details of the precautions to be taken before
disconnecting the battery and following its reconnection.  The presence o
f this label, in particular with 
the Stop & Start system, indicates the use of 
a specific 12 V lead-acid battery with special 
technology and specification. The involvement 
of a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop is 
essential when replacing or disconnecting the
battery.
Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the servicing
booklet and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.

e hard disk or deviceis not recognised whenconnecting to the USBport. 
Some hard disks and devices need a power supply greater than is
provided by the audio system.  Connect the device to the 230 V socket, the 12 V socket or an external power supply. 
Caution 
: 
ensure that the device does not transmit 
a voltage greater than 5 V (risk of destruction of 
the system). 
 
When streaming, the sound cuts momentarily. Some telephones prioritise connection of the "hands-free" profi le.  Delete the "hands-free" connection profi le to

  With the en
gine off, the 
audio system switches off after a few minutes of use. When the en
gine is switched off, the audio system operating timedepends on the battery charge. 
The switch-o
ff is normal: the audio system switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery.  
Start the vehicle's engine to increase the batterycharge. 
  The messa
ge "the audio system is overheated" 
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surroundin
g temperature is too
high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal protection mode leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of the CD.   Switch the audio s
ystem off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.
