You can change mode at any
time by moving the gear lever
from A
to M
or the other way
round.
At very low speed, if reverse gear is re-
quested, this will only be acted on when
the vehicle is immobilised. The Foot on
brake
warning lamp may come on in
the instrument panel to prompt you to
brake.
At high speed, if reverse gear is re-
quested, the N
indicator fl ashes and the
gearbox goes into neutral. To engage a
gear again, put the gear lever in posi-
tion A
or M
.
When immobilising the vehicle,
with the engine running, you
must place the gear lever in neu-
tral N
.
Before carrying out any work in
the engine compartment, ensure
that the gear lever is in neutral N
and that the parking brake is ap-
plied.
Whatever the circumstances,
you must manually apply the
parking brake when parking,
unless the parking brake is pro-
grammed in automatic mode.
Reverse
To engage reverse gear R
, the vehicle
must be immobilised with your foot on
the brake pedal.
)
Select position R
.
Operating fault
With the ignition on, the fl ashing of
AUTO
, accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message in the screen, indi-
cates a malfunction of the gearbox.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
Manual mode
)
Select position M
.
The gears engaged appear in
succession in the instrument
panel screen.
The gear change requests are only act-
ed on if the engine speed permits.
It is not necessary to release the accel-
erator during gear changes.
When braking or slowing down, the
gearbox changes down automatically
to allow the vehicle to accelerate in the
correct gear.
On sharp acceleration, the gearbox will
not change up unless the driver acts on
the gear lever or the steering mounted
paddles.
Temporary control of gear changing
You can temporarily take over control
of gear changing using the "+"
and "-"
steering mounted paddles: if the engine
speed allows, the request to change
gear is acted on.
This function allows you to anticipate
certain situations such as overtaking a
vehicle or the approach to a corner.
After a few moments without any action
on the control paddles, the gearbox re-
sumes automatic control of the gears.
Never select neutral N
while the
vehicle is moving.
In both cases, you must apply the
parking brake
to immobilise the
vehicle. When immobilising the vehicle,
with the engine running, you must place
the gear lever in neutral
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you
can:
- move to position N
to engage neutral,
or
- leave the gear engaged; in this
case, it will not be possible to move
the vehicle.

Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a
gear is not engaged correctly
(selector between two posi-
tions).
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you
can engage position P
or N
to place the
gearbox in neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake
to immobilise the vehicle, unless it is
programmed to automatic mode.
If the lever is not in position P
,
when the driver's door is opened
or approximately 45 seconds af-
ter the ignition is switched off,
there is an audible signal and a
message appears.
)
Return the lever to position P
;
the audible signal stops and
the message disappears.
You risk damaging the gearbox:
- if you press the accelera-
tor and brake pedals at the
same time,
- if you force the lever from po-
sition P
to another position
when the battery is fl at. When the ignition is on, the
lighting of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the multifunc-
tion screen, indicates a gearbox mal-
function.
In this case, the gearbox switches to
back-up mode and is locked in 3rd gear.
You may feel a substantial knock when
changing from P
to R
and from N
to R
.
This will not cause any damage to the
gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), lo-
cal speed restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
This warning lamp may also come on if
a door is opened.
Operating fault
To reduce fuel consumption
when stationary for long periods
with the engine running (traffi c
jam...), position the gear lever
at N
and apply the parking brake,
unless it is programmed in auto-
matic mode.

CHECKS
Unless otherwise indicated, check
these components in accordance with
the servicing booklet and according to
your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Battery
The battery does not require
any maintenance.
However, check that the ter-
minals are clean and correctly
tightened, particularly in sum-
mer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery,
refer to the "Practical information" sec-
tion for details of the precautions to be
taken before disconnecting the battery
and following its reconnection.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the servicing booklet
for details of the replacement
intervals for these compo-
nents.
Oil filter
Replace the oil fi lter each time
the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the servicing booklet
for details of the replacement
interval for this component.
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
According to your version of instrument
panel, the start of saturation of the par-
ticle emissions fi lter is indicated by:
- fi xed illumination of the par-
ticle emissions fi lter warning
lamp, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
that there is a risk of blockage
of the particle emissions fi lter,
The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a specifi c 12 V lead-acid bat-
tery with special technology and speci-
fi cation, for which the involvement of a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop is required when replacing or dis-
connecting the battery.
Failure to observe this recommendation
may shorten the life of the battery.
Depending on the environment (e.g.
dusty atmosphere) and the use of the
vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace them
twice as often if necessary
(refer to
the "Engines" section).
A clogged passenger compartment fi l-
ter may have an adverse effect on the
performance of the air conditioning sys-
tem and generate undesirable odours.
As soon as the traffi c conditions per-
mit, regenerate the fi lter by driving at a
speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, refer to
the "Additive level" section.
On a new vehicle, the fi rst opera-
tions of regeneration of the particle
emissions fi lter may be accom-
panied by the smell of "burning",
which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation
of the vehicle at very low speed
or at idle, you may, in excep-
tional circumstances, notice the
emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This
does not affect the behaviour of
the vehicle or the environment. or
-
temporary illumination of
the service warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message that
there is a risk of blockage of
the particle emissions fi lter.

MUSIC MEDIA PLAYERS
CD, MP3 CD, USB PLAYER
Insert the CD in the player, insert the USB memory stick
in the USB player or connect the USB peripheral to the
USB port using a suitable cable (not supplied).
The system builds playlists (in temporary memory), an
operation which can take from a few seconds to several
minutes at the fi rst connection.
Reduce the number of non-music fi les and the number
of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition is
switched off or connection of a USB memory stick.
However, the system memorises these lists and if they
are not modifi ed, the loading time will be shorter.
Play starts automatically after a period which depends
on the capacity of the USB memory stick.

08 TRIP COMPUTER
Each press of the button, located at the end of the
wiper stalk, displays the different trip computer
information in succession, depending on the screen.
- the "vehicle " tab with:
●
the range, the current fuel consumption and
the distance remaining to the destination or the
Stop & Start time counter,
- the "1" tab (trip 1) with:
●
the average speed, the average consumption
and the distance travelled calculated over trip " 1
",
- the "2" tab (trip 2) with the same information for a
second trip.
Zero reset
When the required trip is displayed, press the control
for more than two seconds.
Range:
displays the distance which can travelled with the remaining fuel
detected in the tank, basd on the average consumption over the last few
miles (kilometres).
This displayed value may vary signifi cantly following a change in the
vehicle speed or the relief of the route.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km), dashes are displayed.
After fi lling with at least 10 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If, whilst driving, dashes are displayed continuously in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
A FEW DEFINITIONS
Current fuel consumption:
only calculated and displayed above 20 mph (30 km/h).
Average fuel consumption:
this is the average fuel consumption since
the last trip computer zero reset.
Distance travelled:
calculated since the last trip computer zero reset.
Distance remaining to the destination:
calculated with reference to
the fi nal destination, entered by the user. If guidance is activated, the
navigation system calculates it as a current value.
Average speed:
this is the average speed calculated since the last trip
computer zero reset (ignition on).
Stop & Start time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
If your vehicle is fi tted with Stop & Start, a time counter calculates the
time spent in STOP mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is switched on with the key.
