Depending on the driving situation and your vehicle's   equipment,   the   system   may   advise  
y

ou   to   skip   one   (or   more)   gear(s).   You   can  
f

ollow   this   instruction   without   engaging   the  
i

ntermediate
 g

The
  gear   engagement   recommendations   must  
n

ot   be   considered   compulsory.   In   fact,   the  
c

onfiguration   of   the   road,   the   amount   of   traffic  
a

nd   safety   remain   determining   factors   when  
c

hoosing   the   best   gear.   Therefore,   the   driver  
r

emains   responsible   for   deciding   whether   or   not  
t

o   follow   the   advice   given   by   the   system.
This
  function   cannot   be   deactivated. -

System
  which   reduces   fuel   consumption   by   recommending   the   most   appropriate   gear.

  on   engine.
On

Tyre under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the p
ressures   of   the   tyres   while   driving.
The
  system   continuously   monitors   the  
p

ressures of the four tyres, as soon as the
vehicle
  is   moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each
  tyre   (except   the   spare   wheel).
The
  system   triggers   an   alert   if   a   drop   in  
p

ressure   is   detected   in   one   or   more   tyres.
The
  tyre   under-inflation   detection   system   is   an  
a

id   to   driving   which   does   not   replace   the   need  
f

or   vigilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.This
  system   does   not   avoid   the   need  
t

o   check   the   tyre   pressures   regularly  
(

including   the   spare   wheel)   and   before  
a

  long   journey.
Driving   with   under-inflated   tyres  
a

dversely   affects   road   holding,  
e

xtends   braking   distances   and   causes  
p

remature   tyre   wear,   particularly   under  a
rduous   conditions   (vehicle   loaded,  h
igh   speed,   long   journey).The tyre pressures for your vehicle can
be
  found   on   the   tyre   pressure   label.
The   tyre   pressures   must   be   checked  
w

hen   the   tyres   cold   (vehicle   stopped  
f

or   1   hour   or   after   driving   for   less   then  
6

  miles   (10   km)   at   moderate   speed).  
O

ther wise,   add   0.3   bar   to   the   values  
i

ndicated   on   the   label.
For m ore i nformation o n id entification m
arkings,   including   the   tyre   pressure  
l

abel,   refer   to   the   corresponding  
s

ection.

p

resents   a   potential   danger.

Towing a trailer
Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting   people   and   luggage,   but   it   may  
a

lso   be   used   for   towing   a   trailer.
We
  recommend   the   use   of   genuine  
C

ITROËN towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved
from
  the   design   stage   of   your   vehicle,  
a

nd   that   the   fitting   of   the   towbar   is  
e

ntrusted to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
 w

orkshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
CITROËN
  dealer,   it   must   still   be  
f

itted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's
 i

nstructions.
Very cold climate screen*
* Depending on the country of sale.
