  Stopping - Starting on a slope 
  
Do  not  use  the  accelerator  pedal  to  
immobilise  the  vehicle  on  a  slope, 
apply the    
parking brake   
 instead.   
 When  starting  on  a  slope,  accelerate 
gradually  while  releasing  the  parking 
brake.  
  Switching to sequential mode 
 Once  you  have  moved  off,  you  can  
switch  to  sequential  mode  by  selecting 
position   +/- . 
  
"D"   disappears and the gears engaged 
appear in succession on the instrument 
panel screen.  
 The gear change requests are only car- 
ried out if the engine speed permits it.  
 Take your foot off the accelerator pedal  
gently to engage the gear. 
  Switching to automated mode 
  Automated mode  
 After  using  the  sequential  mode,  you  
can  return  to  the  automated  mode  by 
selecting position   D . 
  
"D"    appears  on  the  instrument  panel 
screen.  
 The gearbox then operates in auto-active  
mode,  without  any  action  on  the  part  of 
the driver.  
 It  continuously  selects  the  gear  most  
suited to the conditions of:  
   -   driving style, 
  -   road characteristics, 
  -   vehicle load.  
 To  optimise  driving  comfort  and  obtain  
the  most  suitable  gear,  avoid  sharp 
variations  in  the  pressure  on  the 
accelerator pedal.   
  Auto sequential mode  
 In  the  automated  mode,  you  can  take  
over control temporarily at any time us-
ing the steering mounted controls.  
 The use of these controls permits manual  
selection of the gears in situations which 
require  a  faster  changedown  than  that 
offered  in  automated  mode  (arrival  at  a 
roundabout,  exit  from  a  car  park  with  a 
steep gradient, overtaking...).   Stopping the vehicle 
 Before switching off the engine, you can:  
   -   move  to  position    N   to  leave  the 
gearbox in neutral. 
     -      l e a v e   a   g e a r   e n g a g e d ,   s u c h   a s   fi   r s t   or reverse.  
 In both cases, you must apply the park- 
ing brake to immobilise the vehicle.  
  Operating anomaly 
 With  the  ignition  on,  if  the  message  
 
"Slow  down"    or   "Maintenance  re-
quired"    appears  on  the  multifunction 
screen,  this  indicates  a  gearbox  mal-
function.  
 When  a  message  is  displayed,  carry  
out the following operations:  
   -   slow  down  and  stop  your  vehicle  in  a safe place, 
  -   place the lever in position   N  and let 
the engine run, 
  -   open the bonnet to allow the engine  to cool.  
 If  the  message  disappears  for  a  long  
period, you can set off again.  
 If  the  message  remains  displayed  or  
appears frequently, contact a CITROËN 
dealer without delay.  
  
 P r e s s    t h e    b r a k e    p e d a l    fi   r m l y  
while starting the engine.   
 Start the engine.   "N"  appears on the in-
strument panel display.  
   S e l e c t   fi   r s t   g e a r   ( p o s i t i o n     D  or   +/- ) or re-
verse (position   R ). 
 Release the handbrake. 
 Release the brake pedal then accelerate. 
  
"D"   or  "1"   or  "R"   appear on the instru-
ment panel display.    The  gearbox  engages  the  gear  re- 
quested  if  the  engine  speed  permits  it. 
The gear engaged appears.  
 To return to the automated mode, press  
the back of the  
"+/OFF"  control for ap-
proximately 2 seconds.   
 At  low  speeds,  when  approaching  a 
 s t o p    o r    t r a f fi   c    l i g h t s    f o r    e x a m p l e ,    t h e

  "Normal" automatic mode 
  Select position  D . 
  
"D"    appears  on  the  instrument  panel 
screen.  
 The gearbox then operates in automatic  
mode,  without  any  action  on  the  part  of 
the driver.  
 To  optimise  driving  comfort  and  obtain  
the most suitable gear, avoid sharp vari-
ations  in  the  pressure  on  the  accelera-
tor pedal.   
  "Temporary" manual mode  
 In  automatic  mode,  you  can  take  con- 
trol  temporarily  at  any  time  using  the 
steering mounted controls.  
 The use of these controls permits man- 
ual  selection  of  the  gears  in  situations 
which require a faster changedown than 
that  offered  in  automatic  mode  (arrival 
at  a  roundabout,  exit  from  a  car  park 
with a steep gradient, overtaking...).  
 The  gearbox  engages  the  gear  re- 
quested  if  the  engine  speed  permits  it. 
The gear engaged appears.  
 To return to the automatic mode, press  
the  back  of  the    "+/OFF"   control  for  at 
least 2 seconds.   
  "Sport" automatic mode 
 From automatic mode, you can engage  
"Sport" mode.  
 With  the  vehicle  moving  or  stationary,  
push the thumbwheel   A  forward. 
  
"SPORT"    appears  on  the  instrument 
panel screen.  
  Switching off "Sport" automatic  
mode  
 You  can  return  to  "Normal"  automatic  
mode at any time:  
 Push  the  thumbwheel    A   rearward 
once.     Before  switching  off  the  engine,  you  
must  engage  position   
P   or    N   to  place 
the gearbox in neutral.  
 You must apply the parking brake to im- 
mobilise the vehicle.  
 The gear lever must be in position   P  
   to 
remove the ignition key.  
  Stopping the vehicle 
  Hill start assist 
 To assist you when starting on a gradi- 
 e n t ,   y o u r   v e h i c l e   i s   fi   t t e d   w i t h   a   s y s t e m

mately 2 seconds), the time required to 
move your foot from the brake pedal to 
the  accelerator  pedal.  This  function  is 
only  active  when  the  vehicle  has  been 
completely  immobilised  with  your  foot 
on  the  brake  pedal  and  on  certain  gra-
dients.  
  
Do  not  get  out  of  the  vehicle  during  
the hill start    
assist   
 temporary immo-
bilisation phase.   
 To immobilise the vehicle on a gradient 
for  a  longer  period,  you  must  use  the 
parking brake, not the accelerator.  
 When starting on a gradient, accelerate  
gradually  while  releasing  the  parking 
brake.

"RDS" 
  Alternative frequencies "AF" 
 Your  radio  automatically  checks  and  
selects the best frequency for the radio 
station to which it is tuned (if the station 
broadcasts  on  several  transmitters  or 
frequencies).  
 The  frequency  of  a  radio  station  cov- 
ers  approximately  30  miles  (50  km). The 
change  from  one  frequency  to  another 
explains  the  temporary  loss  of  reception 
during a journey. 
 If the station to which you are listening does 
not have several frequencies in the region in 
which you are currently located, you can de-
activate the alternative frequency following.  
  Traffic information "TP" 
   T h e   " T r a f fi   c   P r o g r a m "   ( T P )   f u n c t i o n   p e r -

 t o    a n    F M    s t a t i o n    b r o a d c a s t i n g    t r a f fi   c    i n -
formation.  
 The radio station or the source that you  
are listening to at this point is paused.  
   O n c e   t h e   t r a f fi   c   i n f o r m a t i o n   h a s   e n d e d ,   
the  system  switches  back  to  the  radio 
station  or  the  source  that  you  were  lis-
tening to initially. 
  Regional following mode "REG" 
 Some stations are organised in a network.  
 In different regions, they broadcast diffe- 
rent  or  shared  programmes  depending 
on the time of day.  
 You can follow: 
   -   a regional station only, 
  -   the  entire  network,  with  the  possibility that  you  will  be  listening  to  a  different  
programme.  
 The  "AF",  "REG"  and  "TP" 
functions  can  be  deacti-
vated  or  activated  via  the 
"TUNE"  button  functions 
setting mode.   Press the "TP" button.  
 "TP" appears on the display.  
If  the  station  is  compatible, 
"RDS" also appears. 
   I f    t h e    r a d i o    d e t e c t s    t r a f fi   c    i n f o r m a t i o n ,  
"TRAF  INF"  appears  on  the  display, 
followed by the frequency of the broad-
casting station, then its name.  
 The volume is different from that of the  
previous source.  
   F o l l o w i n g   t h e   b r o a d c a s t i n g   o f   t h e   t r a f fi   c   
information,  the  volume  returns  to  that 
of the source prior to the interruption. 
 When  "TP"  appears  on  the  display, 
the radio stops solely at RDS stations 
 b r o a d c a s t i n g   t r a f fi   c   i n f o r m a t i o n .    
 On  long  distance  journeys,  when  the 
stored station becomes weak, the radio 
 s e a r c h e s   fi   r s t   f o r   a n o t h e r   f r e q u e n c y   f o r  
the same station (AF). Then, if this fails, 
it searches for a frequency broadcast-
ing  the  regional  programme  (REG).  If 
this  also  fails,  the  radio  returns  to  the 
stored station.  
 The "Radio Data System" (RDS) function 
on the FM waveband permits:  
   -   access to the display of information, 
such as the name of the station, ... 
  -   tuning to the same station while trav- elling through different regions, 
     -      t e m p o r a r y   t u n i n g   t o   t r a f fi   c   i n f o r m a t i o n   announcements.  
 Most  FM  stations  use  RDS.  These  
stations  transmit  non-audible  data  in 
addition to their programmes.  
 The  data  transmitted  in  this  way  allows  
you  access  to  various  functions,  mainly 
displaying  of  the  name  of  the  station, 
automatic station following or temporary 
 t u n i n g    t o    t r a f fi   c    i n f o r m a t i o n    a n n o u n c e -
ments.  
 The RDS allows you to continue listen- 
ing to the same station by means of the 
alternative  frequency  following.  How-
ever,  in  certain  conditions,  this  RDS 
frequency following cannot be provided 
throughout  the  country.  Radio  stations 
do  not  cover  the  whole  country,  which 
explains the loss of reception of the sta-
tion during a journey.
