surfaces of the headlamps and rear

FAMILIARISATION

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 refi t 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:


- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after 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 (en-
gine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and observe
the schedule of operations recommended
by the manufacturer.




When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overfl ow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.

Switch off the headlamps and front
foglamps when the level of light does
not require their use.

Avoid running the engine before mov-
ing off, particularly in winter; your ve-
hicle will warm up much faster while
driving.

As a passenger, if you avoid connect-
ing your multimedia devices (fi lm, mu-
sic, video game...), you will contribute
towards limiting the consumption of
electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices be-
fore leaving the vehicle.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
CONTROLS
Control stalk for the selection and con-
trol of the various front and rear lamps
providing the vehicle's lighting.

Main lighting

The various front and rear lamps of
the vehicle are designed to adapt
the driver's visibility progressively in
relation to the climatic conditions:


- sidelamps, to be seen,

- dipped beam headlamps to see
without dazzling other drivers,

- main beam headlamps to see
clearly when the road is clear.



Additional lighting

Other lamps are fi tted to fulfi l the require-
ments of particular driving conditions:


- a rear foglamp to be seen from a
distance,

- front foglamps for even better
forward vision,

- directional headlamps for improved
visibility when cornering,

- daytime running lamps to be
seen during the day.



Programming

Various automatic lighting control
modes are also available depending
on options:


- guide-me-home lighting,

-
automatic illumination of headlamps,


- directional lighting.



Manual controls

modes, the driver can switch on the
main beam headlamps temporarily
("headlamp fl ash") by maintaining a
pull on the stalk.

Model with rear foglamp only

Model with front and rear
foglamps





In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, use of the front foglamps
and the rear foglamp is prohibited.
In these situations, the power of
their beams may dazzle other dri-
vers. They should only be used in
fog or snow.
In these weather conditions, it is
your responsibility to switch on the
foglamps and dipped beam head-
lamps manually as the sunshine
sensor may detect suffi cient light.
Do not forget to switch off the front
foglamps and the rear foglamp
when they are no longer necessary.

Switching off the lamps when
the ignition is switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of the
lamps turn off immediately, except
for the dipped beam headlamps if
guide-me-home lighting is activated.
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the pres-
ence of misting on the internal sur-
face of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal; it disap-
pears after the lamps have been on
for a few minutes.

Switching on the lamps after
the ignition is switched off
To reactivate the lighting control, rotate
ring A
to the "0"
position - lamps off,
then to the desired position.
On opening the driver's door a
temporary audible signal warns the
driver that the lighting is on.
The lamps, with the exception of
the sidelamps, switch off automati-
cally after a period that depends on
the state of charge of the battery
(entering energy economy mode).

VISIBILITY









Automatic illumination of
headlamps
When a low level of ambient light
is detected by a sunshine sensor,
the number plate lamps, sidelamps
and dipped beam headlamps are
switched on automatically, without
any action on the part of the driver.
They can also come on if rain is de-
tected, at the same time as auto-
matic operation of the windscreen
wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns
to a suffi cient level or after the wind-
screen wipers are switched off, the
lamps are switched off automatically.
Activation


)
Turn ring A
to the "AUTO"
posi-
tion. The activation of the function
is accompanied by a message in
the screen.


Deactivation


)
Turn ring A
to a position other
than "AUTO"
. Deactivation of
the function is accompanied by a
message in the screen.


Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the
sunshine sensor, the lamps comes
on, a message appears in the
screen, accompanied by an audible
signal.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.


Automatic "guide-me-home"
lighting
When the automatic illumination of
headlamps function is activated,
under low ambient light the dipped
beams headlamps come on au-
tomatically when the ignition is
switched off.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor
may detect suffi cient light. Therefore,
the lighting will not come on auto-
matically.
Do not cover the sunshine sen-
sor, linked with the rain sensor and
located in the centre of the wind-
screen behind the rear view mirror;
the associated functions would no
longer be controlled.

Programming
The activation and the duration of
the guide-me-home lighting can
be set in the vehicle confi guration
menu.
For a vehicle fi tted with the mono-
chrome screen A, the duration is fi xed.
