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...). Preferably use a roof
box.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and
refit 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:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter 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 filter, air filter, etc.) and observe the
schedule of operations recommended by the
manufacturer.
When filling the tank, do not continue after the
3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only
after the first 1,800 miles (3,000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption settle
down to a consistent average.

In the event of a fault with the emissions control system SCR
A device preventing the engine from
starting automatically activates after
685 miles (1,100 km) of driving following
confirmation of a fault in the SCR
emissions control system. Have the
system checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible. In the event of the detection of a fault
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey, after
self-diagnosis of the emissions SCR
system. or
If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed (after 30
miles (50 km) covered with the permanent display
of the message signalling a fault), the Service and
engine diagnostic warning lights come on and
the AdBlue warning light flashes, accompanied
by an audible signal and the temporary display in
the instrument cluster of "NO START IN" and a
distance, indicating the remaining range expressed
in miles or kilometres before engine starting is
prevented - (e.g.: "NO START IN 600 km" means
"Starting will be prevented in 600 km (375 miles).
While driving, this display appears every
30
seconds while the fault with the SCR emissions
system persists.
The alert is repeated when switching on the
ignition.
You should go to a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
Other wise, you will not be able to restart the
vehicle.
During the permitted driving phase (between
685 and 0 miles) (1,100 km and 0 km)
or
The AdBlue, Service and engine diagnostic
warning lights come on, accompanied by an
audible signal and the display of the message

Lost keys
Go to a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's
registration document, your personal
identification documents and if possible the
key code label.
The
CITROËN dealer will be able to look
up the key code and the transponder code
required to order a new key.
Remote control
The high frequency remote control is a
sensitive system; do not operate it while it is
in your pocket as there is a possibility that
it may unlock the vehicle, without you being
aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of
your remote control out of range and out
of sight of your vehicle. You risk making
it inoperative. It will then be necessary to
reinitialise it again.
No remote control can operate when the
key is in the ignition switch, even when
the ignition is switched off, except for
reinitialisation. Stopped vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may render
access by the emergency services to the
interior difficult in an emergency.
As a safety precaution, never leave children
alone in the vehicle, except for a very short
period.
In all cases, it is essential to remove the key
from the ignition switch when leaving the
vehicle.
Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifications to the
electronic engine immobiliser system; this
could cause malfunctions.
Second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing of all of the keys in your
possession checked by a
CITROËN dealer,
to ensure that only your keys can be used to
open and start the vehicle. Do not throw the remote control
batteries away, they contain metals
which are harmful to the environment.
Take them to an approved collection
point.

Recommendations for heating, ventilation and air conditioning
In order for these systems to be fully
effective, follow the operation and
maintenance guidelines below:
F
T
o ensure that the air is distributed
evenly, keep the external air intake
grilles at the base of the windscreen, the
nozzles, the vents, the air outlets and
the air extractor located in the back free
from obstructions.
F

O
perate the air conditioning system for
at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in per fect working order.
F

E
nsure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the
filter elements replaced regularly.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes
to the purification of the air breathed by
the occupants and the cleanliness of the
passenger compartment (reduction of
allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy
deposits).
F

T
o ensure the correct operation of the
air conditioning system, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly as
recommended in the maintenance and
warranty guide.
F

I
f the system does not produce cold
air, switch it off and contact a
CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep
gradient in high temperatures, switching off
the air conditioning increases the available
engine power and so improves the towing
ability. If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very
high, first ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
The condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is per fectly
normal.
Stop & Star t
The heating and air conditioning systems
only work when the engine is running.
To maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment, you can
temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system.
For more information on Stop & Star t , ,
refer to the corresponding section.

Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can:
- m ove to position N to engage neutral,
or

l
eave the gear engaged; in this case, it will
not be possible to move the vehicle.
For all parking situations, you must apply
the parking brake to immobilise the
vehicle.
In case of immobilization of the vehicle,
engine running, absolutely put the gearbox
in neutral N .
Before working in the engine
compartment, ensure that the gear
selector is in neutral N and the parking
brake is applied.
