Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting.
During acceleration change up early.
With an ETG electronic gearbox, give preference to automatic (Easy)
mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
Control the use of your electrical
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it
by opening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents
open.
Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the
temperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window
blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regulation, as
soon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps when the level of light
does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter; your
vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices
(film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting the
consumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
The gear efficiency indicator invites you engage the most suitable gear:
as soon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it
straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an ETG electronic gearbox, this indicator
appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather
than the brake pedal, and press the accelerator progressively. These
practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and
CO
2 emissions and also helps reduce the background traffic noise.
Eco-driving

43
An aero-acoustic deflector is available to
improve the acoustic comfort of occupants of
the vehicle in certain driving conditions
(high speed), by reducing the turbulence in
the passenger compartment resulting from the
displacement of air.
On opening the roof, the aero-acoustic
deflector is deployed.
On closing the roof, the deflector folds away
automatically.
Aero-acoustic deflectorPrecautions for use
Never place objects on the roof,
whether open or closed.
Never sit on or place objects on the
transverse roof support when the roof
is open. In the event of prolonged storage of the
vehicle outside, it is recommended that
the roof be protected with a cover.
To avoid damaging the roof, do
not open it under snowy or frosty
conditions.
Never use sharp tools to remove ice or
accumulations of snow on the roof.
To limit the creation of folds in the roof
fabric, it is recommended that the roof
not be left open for long periods.
The vehicle's air conditioning system
should not be operated while the roof
is open. It is recommended that the roof be
closed when the vehicle is left parked.
Even if the roof is closed, it is prudent
not to leave any valuable objects inside
the vehicle.
When you leave the vehicle, switch off
the ignition and remove the key (take
the electronic key with you) to avoid any
unwanted operation of the roof.

Recommendations for use
If the interior temperature remains very high after a prolonged period parked in the sun, first
ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes.
For an even air distribution, make sure that you do not block the outside air inlet grille, the
vents, the air passages and the air outlets to the footwells.
Ensure that the passenger compartment filter, located behind the glove box in the heater
unit, is in good condition. Have the filter elements replaced regularly. If you drive in dusty
conditions, change them twice as often.
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month, to keep it in
per fect working order.
In order to ensure that your air conditioning system continues to operate correctly, you are
advised to have it checked regularly.
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.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 flow of water
under the vehicle when stationary which
is per fectly normal.

Air intake / Air recirculation
The recirculation of interior air insulates the
passenger compartment from exterior odours
and smoke.
Return to exterior air intake as soon as possible
to prevent deterioration of the air quality and
the formation of mist.
Air conditioning On / Off
The air conditioning is designed to
operate effectively in all seasons,
with the windows closed.
It enables you to:
-

l

-

i

ncrease the effectiveness of the demisting
in winter, above 3°C.

restricting air flow.
Dynamic air distribution mainly
towards the side air vents.
We recommend that you use this mode.
It provides optimised automatic control of
all of the following functions: passenger
compartment temperature, air flow, air
distribution and air intake, in accordance with
the comfort value that you have chosen.
This system is designed to operate effectively
in all seasons, with the windows and fabric roof
closed.
For your comfort, when the engine is switched
off, the settings are retained until the engine is
switched on again.
To prevent too great a distribution of cold air
when the engine is cold, the air flow will only
reach its optimum level gradually.

Avoid driving for long periods with the air
conditioning switched off (risk of misting
and reduction of the air quality in the cabin).
