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.

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).

Mode AUTO
In cold weather with the engine cold,
the air flow is increased gradually until
the comfort setting has been reached,
in order to limit the delivery of cold air
into the passenger compartment.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than the comfort setting requested,
there is no need to alter the value
displayed in order to reach more quickly
the required level of comfort. The
system compensates automatically and
corrects the temperature difference as
quickly as possible.
This setting is associated with AUTO mode
only. However, on deactivation of AUTO mode,
the last setting used remains on.
Changing the setting does not reactivate AUTO
mode if deactivated.
To change the current setting, press the button
several times in succession to access the
desired mode:
" Soft ": provides soft and quiet operation by
limiting air flow.
" Normal ": offers the best compromise between
a comfortable temperature and quiet operation
(default setting).
" Fast ": provides strong and effective air flow.

In the event of a fault with the system, the
indicator lamp in the button flashes for a
few moments, then remains on.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall.
All of the instrument panel warning lamps
come
on.
It is then necessary to switch off the ignition
and start the engine again.
In certain circumstances, such as the need
to maintain the temperature in the passenger
compartment, it may be useful to deactivate the
Stop & Start system.
The system can be deactivated at any time,
once the ignition is switched on.
If the engine is in STOP mode, it then restarts.
The Stop & Start system is reactivated
automatically every time the ignition is
switched

on.
Deactivation / Reactivation
The Stop & Start system requires
a 12 V battery of specific technology
and specification.
All work on this type of battery must be
carried out only by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
For more information on
the 12 V Battery , refer to the
corresponding section.
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid the risk of injury related to an
automatic change to START mode. Opening the bonnet
Driving on flooded roads
Before driving through a flooded road,
it is strongly recommended that you
deactivate the Stop & Start system.

advice , particularly on flooded roads,

Deactivation is confirmed by the illumination of
the indicator lamp in the control switch and the
display of a message.

Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.The under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous conditions
(high loading, high speed, long journey).
The inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label.
For more information on the
Identification markings
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing
snow chains.
Under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed .
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres. Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when
the
tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped
for
1 hour or after a journey of less than
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures
shown on the label.
