FAMILIARISATION
ECO-DRIVING
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to \
optimise their fuel consumption and CO2
emissions.
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 or electronic
gearbox, give preference to
automatic mode and avoid pressing
the accelerator pedal heavily or
suddenly.
The gear shift indicator invites you
engage the most suitable gear: as
soon as the indication is displayed in
the instrument panel, follow it straight
away.
For vehicles fi tted with an electronic
or automatic gearbox, this indicator
appears only in manual mode.
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 conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the
windows and leave the air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment
that can help keep the temperature
in the passenger compartment down
(sunroof and window blinds...). Switch off the headlamps and front
foglamps when the level of light does
not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before
moving off, particularly in winter; your
vehicle will warm up much faster
while driving.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between
vehicles, use engine braking rather
than the brake pedal, and press the
accelerator progressively. These
practices contribute towards a
reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions and also helps reduce the
background traffi c noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control,
make use of the system at speeds
above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the
traffi c is fl owing well.
As a passenger, if you avoid
connecting your multimedia devices
(fi lm, music, video game...), you
will contribute towards limiting the
consumption of electrical energy, and
so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices
before leaving the vehicle. Switch off the air conditioning, unless
it has automatic regulation, as
soon 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.

14
Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the
vehicle; place the heaviest items in
the bottom of the boot, as close as
possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the
vehicle and reduce wind resistance
(roof bars, roof rack, bicycle
carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in
preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks
after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow
tyres and refi t your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly,
when cold, referring to the label in the
door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the
tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter,
passenger compartment fi lter...) and
observe the schedule of operations
recommended in the maintenance and
warranty guide. When refuelling, do not continue after
the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overfl ow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.

Instruments and controls

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION EMISSIONS CONTROLS
System which
automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres
while driving.
EOBD (European On
Board Diagnosis) is a
diagnostics system which
complies with, among
others, the standards
concerning authorised emissions of:
- CO (carbon monoxide),
- HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
- NOx (nitrous oxides) or particles, detected by oxygen sensors placed
upstream and downstream of the
catalytic converters.
The driver is warned of any malfunction
of this emission control system by the
illumination of this specifi c warning
lamp in the instrument panel.
There is a risk of damage to the
catalytic converter. Have it checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop. The system continuously monitors the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as
the vehicle is moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the
valve of each tyre (except the spare
wheel).
The system triggers an alert if a drop
in pressure is detected in one or more
tyres.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is an aid to driving which
does not replace the need for
the driver to be vigilant or to drive
responsibly. This system does not avoid the
need to check the tyre pressures
regularly (including the spare
wheel) and before a long journey.
Driving with under-infl ated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey).
Driving with under-infl ated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle
can be found on the tyre pressure
label (see the "Identifi cation
markings" section).
The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.

Gearbox and steering wheel

GEARBOX
5-speed gearbox - reverse

To change gear easily, always press
the clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedal:
- ensure that the mat and its fi xings on the fl oor are positioned correctly,
- never fi t one mat on top of another.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand
on the gear knob as the force exerted,
even if slight, may wear the internal
components of the gearbox over time.
Engaging 5 th gear
Push the gear lever fully to the right to
engage 5 th gear.
GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
System which reduces fuel
consumption by recommending the
most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system
may advise you to skip one (or more)
gear(s). You can follow this instruction
without engaging the intermediate
gears.
The gear engagement
recommendations must not be
considered compulsory. In fact, the
confi guration of the road, the amount
of traffi c and safety remain determining
factors when choosing the best
gear. Therefore, the driver remains
responsible for deciding whether or
not to follow the advice given by the
system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
Engaging reverse
To engage reverse gear, wait until the
vehicle is stationary then push the gear
lever to the right then back.
The lever should be moved slowly to
reduce the noise on engaging reverse
gear. With an electronic gearbox, the system
is only active in manual mode.

Moving off
- To start the engine, the gear selector must be in position N .
- Press fi rmly on the brake pedal.
- Operate the starter.
- When the engine is running, place the gear selector on R , A or M as
desired.
- Release the brake pedal and accelerate.
If the gear selector is not in position N ,
and/or if the brake pedal is not
pressed, the engine will not start.
Repeat the above procedure.
Reverse gear
Engaging reverse gear
Move the gear selector to R .
Only attempt to select reverse gear
when the vehicle is stationary.
Neutral
Changing to neutral
Move the gear selector to N . If the
vehicle is moving, do not select this
position even momentarily. Manual mode
Changing to manual mode
Move the gear selector to M .
Automatic mode
Changing to automatic
mode
Move the gear selector to A .
The gearbox then operates in
automatic mode, without any action on
your part.
It constantly selects the gear that is
best suited to the following conditions:
- driving style,
- road profi le,
- optimum fuel consumption.

Stop & Start
42
STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the
engine temporarily on standby - STOP
mode - during stops in the traffi c (red
lights, traffi c jams, or other...). The
engine restarts automatically - START
mode - as soon as you want to move
off. The restart takes place instantly,
quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise
level when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and
the engine goes into standby:
- with a manual gearbox , at speeds below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you
put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal,
- with the 6-speed electronic gearbox , at speeds below 5 mph
(8 km/h), when you press the brake
pedal or put the gear selector into
position N . If your vehicle is fi tted with the system,
a time counter calculates the sum of
the periods in STOP mode during a
journey. It rests itself to zero every time
the ignition is switched on with the key.
With the electronic gearbox,
for your comfort during parking
manoeuvres, 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
braking, power steering, for example.
Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off
the ignition with the key. Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
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 using the key,
- the parking brake is applied or being applied,
- the engine is needed to maintain a comfortable temperature in the
passenger compartment,
- demisting is active,
- some special conditions (battery charge, engine temperature,
braking assistance, ambient
temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a
system.
In this case, the "ECO"
warning lamp fl ashes for a
few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
