For more economical driving, and increased rangePractical advice for everyday use to optimise the range of your vehicle by conserving 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
/ g
eneration 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
/ g

eneration 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
comfort is reached and check their settings
every time you set off.
Control also the use of demisting
/ d

efrosting
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 servicing
recommended by CITROËN.

Ventilation
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger
compartment is filtered and originates either
from the outside via the grille located at the
base of the windscreen or from the inside in air
recirculation mode. System which creates and maintains good
conditions of comfort and visibility in the
vehicle's passenger compartment.
Controls
The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected.
The temperature control enables you to obtain
the level of comfort required by mixing the air of
the various circuits.
The air distribution control enables you to
select the air vents used in the passenger
compartment.
The air flow control enables you to increase or
reduce the speed of the ventilation fan.
These controls are grouped together on control
panel A on the centre console.

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
If t
he interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been parked in the
sun for a considerable time, first ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes
by opening the windows.
Pl

ace the air flow control at a sufficient level to provide an adequate renewal of air in
the passenger compartment.
F
Co

ndensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the
vehicle when stationary, which is per fectly normal.
F
To o

btain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles
located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
as the air extractor located in the boot.
F
Us

e in preference the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recirculation may
cause misting of the windows and side windows.
F
Op

erate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it
in good working order.
F
En

sure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly (refer to "Checks").
F
To e

nsure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have
it checked regularly.
F
If t

he system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
The heating and air conditioning use
energy from the main battery. Their use
increases electrical consumption and
reduces the range of the vehicle.
Remember to switch off the heating
or air conditioning as soon as it is no
longer needed.

A lateral airbag is deployed unilaterally in the
event of a serious side impact applied to all or
part of the side impact zone B, perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The lateral airbag inflates between the hip and
shoulder of the front occupant of the vehicle
and the corresponding door trim panel. System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious side impact
in order to limit the risk of injury to the chest,
between the hip and the shoulder.
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest
frame, door side.

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection
in the event of an accident.
Check that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack in
relation to the child's body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, check that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it
secures the child seat firmly on the seat of
your vehicle.
at th
e rear seats, always leave sufficient
space between the front seat and:
-
a re

ar ward facing child seat,
-
th

e feet of a child seated in a for ward
facing child seat.
For this, move the front seat for ward and if
necessary straighten its backrest.
Advice on child seats
Children at the front
The legislation on carrying a child on the
front passenger seat is specific to each
c o unt r y.
Refer to the legislation in force in your
c o unt r y.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag when
a rear ward facing child seat is installed on
the front seat.
Other wise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were
deployed. For optimum installation of a for ward facing
child seat, ensure that the back of the
child seat is as close as possible to the
backrest of the vehicle's seat, or in contact
if possible.
The head restraint must be removed before
installing a child seat with a backrest on
the passenger seat. Ensure that the head
restraint is stowed or attached securely so
that it is not thrown around the vehicle in
the event of sharp braking.
Refit the head restraint as soon as the child
seat is removed.
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
CITROËN recommends the use of a
booster seat which has a back, fitted with a
seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
-
on

e or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
-
a ch

ild or an animal in a vehicle which
is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,
-
th

e keys within reach of children inside
the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the doors,
use the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
