STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the en-
gine temporarily on standby - STOP
mode - during stops in the traffi c (red
lights, traffi c jams, or other...). The en-
gine 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 a manual gearbox
, at speeds
below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you
put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal, If your vehicle is fi tted with
the system, a time counter
calculates the sum of the pe-
riods in STOP mode during a
journey. It resets itself to zero every time
the ignition is switched on with the key.
- with the 6-speed electronic gear-
box system
, at a speed below
5 mph (8 km/h), when you press the
brake pedal or put the gear lever
into position N
. With the automatic gearbox
system, for your comfort dur-
ing parking maoeuvres, STOP
mode is not available for a few
seconds after coming out of re-
verse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such
as braking, power steering, for
example.
Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the driver's door is open,
- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,
- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start
using the key,
- the electric parking brake is applied
or being applied,
- 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.
In this case, the "ECO"
warning
lamp fl ashes for a few seconds,
then goes off. Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off
the ignition with the key.
This operation is perfectly normal.

No alert will be given in the following
situations:
- in the presence of stationary objects
(parked vehicles, barriers, street
lamps, road signs...),
- with vehicles moving in the opposite
direction,
- driving on a sinuous road or a sharp
corner, The alert is given by a warning lamp
which comes on in the door mirror on
the side in question as soon as a ve-
hicle - car, lorry, cycle - is detected and
the following conditions are fulfi lled:
- all the vehicles must be moving in
the same direction,
- the speed of your vehicle is between
7 and 75 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
- the difference in speed between
your vehicle and the other vehicles
must be less than 6 mph (10 km/h),
- the traffi c must be fl owing normally,
- in the case of an overtaking ma-
noeuvre, if this is prolonged and the
vehicle being overtaken remains in
the blind spot,
- you are driving on a straight or slightly
curved road,
- your vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a
caravan...
- when overtaking (or being over-
taken by) a very long vehicle (lorry,
coach...) which is at the same time
detected at the rear in the blind spot
angle and present in the driver's for-
ward fi eld of vision,
- in very heavy traffi c: vehicles detect-
ed in front and behind are confused
with a lorry or a stationary object,
- when overtaking quickly.

TOWING A TRAILER,
A CARAVAN, ETC.
We recommend the use of genu-
ine CITROËN towbars and their
harnesses that have been tested
and approved from the design
stage of your vehicle, and that
the fi tting of the towbar is en-
trusted to a CITROËN dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.
If the trailer is not fi tted by a
CITROËN dealer, it is imperative
that it is fi tted using the vehicle's
electrical pre-equipment, in ac-
cordance with the manufacturer's
instructions. The rear parking sensors will
be deactivated automatically if
a genuine CITROËN towbar is
used.
Towbar suitable for the attachment of a
trailer or caravan with additional lighting
and signalling.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it
may also be used for towing a trailer. Driving with a trailer places greater de-
mands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads
)
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest items are as close
as possible to the axle and the nose
weight approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load
must be reduced by 10 % for every
1 000 metres of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section for
details of the weights and towed loads
which apply to your vehicle.
Side wind
)
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
)
To lower the engine speed, reduce
your speed. The maximum towed load on a long in-
cline depends on the gradient and the
ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
)
If the warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as
soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.
Tyres
)
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
)
Check the electrical lighting and sig-
nalling on the trailer.

The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned
must be reduced by 10 % for each additional 1 000 metres of altitude.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the performance of the vehicle to protect the engine; if the ambient
temperature is above 37 °C, limit the towed load.
*
The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, if the GVW of the towing vehicle is reduced by an
equal amount. Warning: towing using a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.
