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 / 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
comfort 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 servicing
recommended by CITROËN.

Main battery state of charge indicator
Display
Four successive alerts indicate that the energy
available in the main battery is dropping to a
low level:
-
2 b
ars of the state of charge gauge in the
instrument panel, on and flashing: starting
to use the reserve.
-

T
he last bar in the state of charge gauge
flashing.
-

T
he last bar disappears: display of the
range disappears; the heating and air
conditioning are switched off.
Low energy alerts
- Display of this warning lamp in the instrument panel: progressive
reduction in the power available
from the motor.
The state of charge of the main battery is
displayed continuously in the instrument panel.

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 proportion 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 proportion to
the level of charge sent to the main battery,
during period of deceleration and braking.

This function gives an estimate of the number
of miles (km) that your vehicle can still cover,
based on the recent conditions of use (driving
style, use of heating, air conditioning...).
Range indicator
When the remaining range falls to a
low level, "- - -" is displayed in the
instrument panel.
The range can be displayed in miles or
kilometres.
To change the units, refer to the
"Distance recorder" section.
Under-inflation detection
Selecting the set of wheels and
tyres fitted
If you have previous registered a second set
of wheels and tyres with sensor, you have to
select the corresponding set in the instrument
panel screen after fitting them.
Carry out the following procedure to do this.

10


seconds , to change from set of tyres
and wheels 1 to set 2 or the other way
round.
You have to reinitialise the under-inflation
detection system after adjusting one or more
tyre pressures or after changing one or more
wheels.
Carry out the following procedure to do this.

Monitoring

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
I
f the 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.
P

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

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

T
o obtain 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

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

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

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

T
o ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have
it checked regularly.
F

I
f the 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.

Air conditioning
The air conditioning can be used as soon as the "Ready" lamp is on.
Adjustments can be made manually or automatically.
Heating / Ventilation
The heating and ventilation can be used as soon as the "Ready" lamp
is on.

3. Air distribution adjustment
Place the dial in the desired
position to distribute air to:
central and side vents,
central, side and footwell vents,
footwells,
windscreen, side windows and
footwells,
windscreen and side windows.
The air distribution can be adapted by placing
the dial in an intermediate position. With the dial in the " AUTO" position, air
distribution is adjusted automatically,
according to the temperature selected.
2. Air flow adjustment
F Turn the dial to the right to increase air
flow and to the left
to reduce it.
With the dial in the " AUTO" position,
the air flow is adjusted automatically,
according to the interior temperature.
1. Temperature adjustment
F Turn the dial from blue (cold) to red (hot) to adjust
the temperature to your
requirements.
When the dial is placed on "●", the fan
air will be at ambient temperature.
If you move the dial to "●" while using
the heating or air conditioning, these
will stop immediately.
