Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. During acceleration change up early.
With
an automatic gearbox, give preference to automatic mode and
a
void pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
Control the use of your electrical
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows and air vents before using the air
c
onditioning.
Above
30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents
ope
n.
Remember
to make use of equipment that can help keep the temperature
i
n the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window blinds...).
Switch
off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regulation, as
s
oon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch
off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not automatic.
Switch
off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch
off the headlamps and front foglamps when the ambient light
l
evel does not require their use.
Avoid
running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter; your
v
ehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As
a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices
(
film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting the
c
onsumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect
your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather than the brake pedal, and press the accelerator progressively. These
p
ractices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions
and
also
help
reduce
the
background
traffic
noise.
If
your
vehicle
has
cruise
control,
make
use
of
the
system
at
speeds
a
bove
25
mph
(40
km/h)
when
the
traffic
is
flowing
well.
The

indicator

you
to

most
suitable
g
ear:
as
soon

Motorised tailgate
General points
Never place a finger in the locking mechanism of the motorised tailgate -
R
isk of serious injury!
Anti-pinch
The motorised tailgate includes a system for detecting obstacles, which automatically
i
nterrupts and reverses the movement by a few
d
egrees, to allow the obstacle to be cleared.
Note
that this anti-pinch system does not
o
perate at the end of the closing movement
(
around 1 cm before complete closure).
The
motorised
operation
of
the
tailgate
can
b
e
activated
or
deactivated
by
selecting
"
M
otorised tailgate " in the Driving
menu
of
t
he
touch
screen
tablet.
Bicycle carrier / Towbar
The tailgate is not designed to be fitted with a b icycle carrier.
If
a bicycle carrier is fitted to a towbar with a
w
iring harness connected to a towbar socket,
t
he motorised operation of the tailgate is
a
utomatically
d
eactivated.
If
using a towbar or bicycle carrier not approved
b
y CITROËN, it is essential to deactivate the
m
otorised operation of the tailgate.
Tailgate

tailgate
to
open. To
avoid
the
risk
of
injury
through
p
inching
or
trapping,
before
and
during
o
peration
of
the
tailgate:
-
e
nsure
that
there
is
no

Operating faults
If several foot movements below the rear bumper fail to open the tailgate, wait a
f
ew seconds before starting again.
The
function is automatically deactivated in the
e
vent of heavy rain or accumulation of snow.
If
the function fails to operate, check
t
hat the electronic key is not exposed to
s
trong electromagnetic inter ference (a
s
mar tphone, ...).
The
function may not work correctly with a
pro
sthetic
le
g.
The
function may not work correctly if your
v
ehicle is fitted with a towbar. In
some circumstances, the tailgate may only o
pen or close, particularly if:
-
y
our vehicle is fitted with a towbar,
-
y

-
y
ou fit or remove a bicycle carrier,
-

-
y
ou are washing your vehicle,
-
a
service is being carried out on your
v
ehicle,
-
y
ou are accessing the spare wheel
(
depending
o
n
v
ersion).
To
avoid such operating problems, keep the
e
lectronic key away from the recognition zone
o
r deactivate "Hands-Free Tailgate Access".
Ensure
that no object or person might prevent
t
he correct opening or closing of the tailgate.
Be
particularly aware of children when
o
perating the tailgate.
