Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting.
During acceleration change up early.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds
above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.
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 ambient light
level does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter; your
vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
With an automatic gearbox, give preference to automatic mode and
avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
The gear efficiency indicator invites you to 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 automatic 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 help reduce the background traffic noise. A s 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.

Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the
bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof
bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on
maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in
the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter,
passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty your vehicle
becomes polluting; go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay to have the emissions of nitrogen oxides brought back to
the legal level.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to
avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3
000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.

Low fuel levelfixed, accompanied by
an audible signal and
a message. When it first comes on there remains
approximately 5 litres of fuel
in the
tank.
You are then using the fuel reserve. You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid running
out of fuel.
Until sufficient fuel is added, this warning lamp will
come on every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by an audible signal and a message.
This audible signal and message are repeated with
increasing frequency as the level drops towards "0".
Fuel tank capacity:
-

Pe
trol: approximately 45 litres.
-

D
iesel: approximately 42 or 50 litres (depending
on version).
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel as
this could damage the emission control and injection
systems.

A few definitions…
Range
(miles or km)
This value may vary following a change
in the style of driving or the relief,
resulting in a significant change in the
current fuel consumption.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed.
After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the
range is recalculated and is displayed if it
exceeds 60 miles (100 km). This function is only displayed from
20
mph (30 km/h).
Current fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
Stop & Star t time counter
(minutes / seconds or hours /
minutes)
A time counter calculates the time spent in
STOP mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on.
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated since the last trip computer reset.
If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The distance which can still be travelled with
the fuel remaining in the tank (at the average
fuel consumption seen over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled).
Calculated over the last few seconds.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
Calculated since the last trip computer reset. Calculated since the last trip computer reset.
