Gear efficiency indicator
System which reduces fuel consumption by advising the driver to change up.
O n   vehicle   fitted   with   a   manual  
g

earbox,   the   arrow   is   accompanied   by  
t

he   gear   recommended.
With
  an   electronic   or   automatic  
g

earbox,   the   system   is   only   active   in  
m

anual
 m
ode. The
  system   adapts   its   gear   change  
r

ecommendation   according   to   the  
d

riving   conditions   (slope,   load, ...)   and  
t

he   demands   of   the   driver   (power,  
a

cceleration,   braking, ...).
The
  system   never   suggests:
-
 
e
ngaging   first   gear,
-
 enga

ging
 r
everse
 g
ear,
-
 
e
ngaging   a   lower   gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and your vehicle's   equipment,   the   system   may   advise  
y

ou   to   skip   one   (or   more)   gear(s).   You   can  
f

ollow   this   instruction   without   engaging   the  
i

ntermediate
 g
ears.
The
  gear   engagement   recommendations   must  
n

ot   be   considered   compulsory.   In   fact,   the  
c

onfiguration   of   the   road,   the   amount   of   traffic  
a

nd   safety   remain   determining   factors   when  
c

hoosing   the   best   gear.   Therefore,   the   driver  
r

emains   responsible   for   deciding   whether   or   not  
t

o   follow   the   advice   given   by   the   system.
This
  function   cannot   be   deactivated. Example:
-
 
Y
ou   are   in   third   gear.
-  
Y
ou   press   the   accelerator   pedal.
-  
T
he   system   may   suggest   that   you   engage  
a

  higher   gear.
The   information   appears   in   the   instrument  
p

anel   in   the   form   of   an   arrow.

n

ecessary   to   switch   off   the   ignition   and   start  
t

Operating fault
The Stop & Start system requires 
a   12   V   battery   with   a   special  
s

pecification

echnology.
All
  work   on   this   type   of   battery   must   be  
c

arried   out   only   by   a   CITROËN   dealer

Deactivation / Manual
reactivation
In certain cases, such as the need to maintain a   comfortable   temperature   in   the   passenger  
c

ompartment,   it   may   be   useful   to   deactivate   the  
S

top   &   Start   system.
The
  system   can   be   deactivated   at   any   time,  
o

nce   the   ignition   is   on.
If
  the   engine   is   in   STOP   mode,   it   then   restarts.
The

a

utomatically   every   time   the   ignition   is  
switched
  on.
Opening the bonnet
Before
  doing   anything   under   the

Speed limiter
System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding   the   speed   programmed   by   the   driver.
When
  the   programmed   speed   limit   is   reached,  
p

ressing   the   accelerator   pedal   in   the   normal
