DRIVING
STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode -
during stops in the traffi c (red lights, traf-
fi c jams, or other...). The engine restarts
automatically - START mode - as soon as
you want to move off. The restart takes
place instantly, quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise
level when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO"
warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and
the engine goes into standby:
- with the 6-speed electronic gear-
box system
, at speeds below 4 mph
(6 km/h), when you press the brake
pedal or put the gear lever in posi-
tion N
.
For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such
as for example, braking, power
steering... A time counter calculates the
sum of the periods in STOP
mode during a journey. It
rests itself to zero every
time the ignition is switched
on with the key.
Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the driver's door is open,
- the driver's seat belt is not fas-
tened,
- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start
using the key,
- the engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the pas-
senger compartment,
- demisting is active,
- some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature, brak-
ing assistance, ambient tempera-
ture...) where the engine is needed
to assure control of a system.
The "ECO"
warning lamp fl ash-
es for a few seconds then goes
off.
This operation is perfectly normal.

DRIVING
Going into engine START mode
The "ECO"
warning lamp goes
off and the engine starts with the
electronic gearbox
system
:
- gear lever in position A
or M
, when
you release the brake pedal,
- or gear lever in position N
and the
brake pedal released, when you move
the gear lever to position A
or M
,
- or when you engage reverse gear.
Special cases: START invoked
automatically
For reasons of safety and for your com-
fort, START mode is invoked automati-
cally when:
- you open the driver's door,
- you unfasten the driver's seat belt,
- the speed of the vehicle exceeds
7 mph (11 km/h) with the electronic
gearbox system,
- some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature, braking
assistance, ambient temperature...)
where the engine is needed for con-
trol of a system.
The "ECO"
warning lamp fl ashes
for a few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Deactivation
At any time, press the "ECO OFF"
switch
to deactivate the system.
This is confi rmed by the switch warn-
ing lamp coming on accompanied by a
message in the screen.
If the system has been deacti-
vated in STOP mode, the engine
restarts immediately.
Reactivation
Press the "ECO OFF"
switch again.
The system is active again; this is confi rmed
by the switch warning lamp going off, ac-
companied by a message in the screen.

the key.

DRIVING
Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the system,
the "ECO OFF"
switch warning lamp
fl ashes then comes on continuously.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode,
the vehicle may stall. It is then neces-
sary to switch off the ignition and start
the engine again using the key.
Before doing anything under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop &
Start system to avoid any risk of
injury resulting from automatic
operation of START mode.
Maintenance
This system requires a battery with a
special specifi cation and technology
(reference numbers available from a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop).
Fitting a battery not listed by
CITROËN introduces the risk of mal-
function of the system.
The Stop & Start system makes
use of advanced technology. All
work on this type of battery must
be done by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

RDS, if displayed, allows you to continue listening to the same station by automatic retuning to alternative frequencies. However,
in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be
assured throughout the entire country as radio stations do notcover 100 % of the territory. This explains the loss of reception of
the station during a journey.
The external environment (hill, building, tunnel, underground car park...)may interfere with the reception, including in RDS following mode. Thisphenomenon is a normal result of the way in which radio waves are
transmitted and does not in any way indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
