occurred: refer to the description of each lamp
for further information.
When the ignition is switched on
Certain red or orange warning lamps come on
for a few seconds when the ignition is switched
on. These warning lamps should go off as soon
as the engine is started.
For more information on a system or a function,
refer to the corresponding section.

Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still be travelled with the fuel remaining in the tank (related
to the average fuel consumption over the last
few miles (kilometres) travelled).
This value may fluctuate if a change of driving style or terrain results in a
significant change in the current fuel
consumption.
Dashes are displayed when the range falls below
20 miles (30 km).
After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range
is recalculated and is displayed if it exceeds 60
miles (100 km).
If dashes instead of figures continue to
be displayed when driving, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)Calculated over the last few seconds.
This function is only displayed above 20 mph (30 km/h).

102
Driving
This system displays the maximum authorised
speed in the instrument panel, according to
the speed limits in the country in which you are
driving, using:
– Speed limit signs detected by the camera.– Speed limit details from the navigation system mapping.
Navigation mapping should be regularly
updated in order to receive accurate
speed limit information from the system.
The units for the speed limit (mph or km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
This should be taken into account so that you
observe the speed limit.
For the system to work correctly when
changing country, the speed unit in the
instrument panel must correspond to that of
the country you are driving in.
The automatic reading of road signs is a driving aid system and does not always
display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over the display by the
system.
The system is designed to detect signs that
conform to the Vienna Convention on road
signs.
Specific speed limits, such as those for
heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the
instrument panel is updated when passing
a speed limit sign intended for cars (light
vehicles).
