For more economical driving, and increased range
Practical advice for everyday use to optimise the range of your vehicle by conser ving battery power.


Adopt a smooth driving
style
The electrical consumption of your vehicle
depends greatly on your journey, your driving
style and your speed.
In all cases, adopt a smooth driving style.

Stay in the "Eco" zone
indicated in the energy
consumption/generation meter: depress the
accelerator pedal progressively, without sudden
movement, and if the conditions permit, drive at
steady and moderate speed.


Recover energy

Anticipating the driving conditions allows you to
recover energy and increase the range of your
vehicle.

Use the "Charge" zone
of the energy
consumption/generation meter whenever
possible: anticipate the traffic slowing
down and if the the conditions permit, use
deceleration rather than the brakes.


Control the use of your
electrical equipment
The heating and air conditioning systems
operate on energy from the main battery.
Excessive use of these systems greatly
reduces the range of your vehicle. Remember
to switch them off once the desired level of
comfor t is reached and check their settings
every time you set off.
Control also the use of demisting/defrosting
and the heated seat.


Limit the causes of excess
consumption
As with any vehicle, limit the loads carried
in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance
(windows open above 30 mph (50 km/h), roof
bars, roof box, …).


Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly and
follow the schedule for routine ser vicing
recommended by CITROËN.

Indicator and warning lamps

Visual indicators informing the driver that a
system is in operation, is deactivated or has a
fault.

When the ignition is switched on

Cer tain warning lamps come on for a few
seconds when the vehicle's ignition
is switched on.
These same warning lamps go off after a few
seconds.
If you notice one of these warning lamps
remaining on, refer to the information on the
warning lamp in question.


Associated warnings

The illumination of cer tain warning lamps may
be accompanied by an audible signal.
The warning lamps may come on continuously
(fixed) or flash.
Cer tain warning lamps may come on in
one of two modes. Only by relating the
type of lighting to the operating status
of the vehicle can it be ascer tained
whether the situation is normal or
whether a fault has occurred.

Energy consumption/generation indicator


Energy consumption

On switching on the ignition, your vehicle
neither consumes nor generates energy in its
electric traction system: the needle is in the
"neutral" position (provided that the heating and
air conditioning are off).


"Eco" zone


A system that informs the driver of the level of energy consumption or generation of the main battery.


"Neutral" position

"Charge" zone

The needle moves to the right in propor tion to
the energy consumption by the vehicle. The needle is in this zone when the vehicle is
used so as to moderate electric consumption
and optimise its range.
The needle moves to the left in propor tion to
the level of charge sent to the main battery,
during period of deceleration and braking.

the ser vice spanner is displayed for a
few seconds to remind you that a ser vice
should be carried out as soon as possible.

3.
Once the ser vice has been carried out,
the distance or the number of months to
the next ser vice is displayed again.
System which informs the driver when
the next ser vice is due in accordance with
the manufacturer's ser vicing schedule.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


The quality of reception
of the radio station
listened to gradually
deteriorates or the stored
stations do not function
(no sound, 87.5 MHz is
displayed...). The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listened
to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the
vehicle is travelling. Activate the RDS function to enable the system
to check whether there is a more powerful
transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block
reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate
a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going
through a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2 seconds in radio mode. During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency
permitting better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route.
Traffi c announcement
TA is displayed. I do
not receive any traffi c
information. The radio station does not broadcast traffi c information. Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffi c
information.
The stored stations are
not found (no sound,
87.5 MHz is displayed...). An incorrect waveband is selected. Press the SRC/TEL button to return to the
waveband (FM1 or FM2) on which the stations are
stored.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


An iPod is not recognised
when connecting to the
USB port. The iPod is of a generation that is not compatible with the USB.
The hard disk or device
is not recognised when
connecting to the USB
port. Some hard disks and devices need a power supply greater than is
provided by the audio system. Connect the device to the 230 V socket, the 12 V
socket or an external power supply.

Caution
: ensure that the device does not transmit
a voltage greater than 5 V (risk of destruction of
the system).
When streaming, the
sound cuts momentarily. Some telephones prioritise connection of the "hands-free" profi le. Delete the "hands-free" connection profi le to
improve streaming.
In "Random all" play,
not all of the tracks are
played. In "Random all" play, the system can only take into account up to
999 tracks.
With the engine off,
the audio system
switches off after a few
minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time
depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system switches to economy mode
and switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
The message "the audio
system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is too
high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal protection mode
leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of the CD. Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.
