Stop & Start
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO"  warning   lamp   comes   on i
n   the   instrument   panel   and   the   engine g
oes   into   standby   automatically:
-
 
w
ith a manual gearbox , when stationary, 
in neutral, and you release the clutch 
pedal.
-
 
w
ith an electronic gearbox , when 
stationary
  or   at   speeds   below   5   mph  
(
8 km/h)   (depending   on   version),   in   neutral  
(
control   on   N)
  or   when   you   press   the   brake  
ped
al. Never
  refuel   with   the   engine   in   STOP  
m
ode;   you   must   switch   off   the   ignition  
w
ith   the   button.
For
  your   comfort,   during   parking  
m
anoeuvres,   STOP   mode   is   not  
a
vailable for a few seconds after 
coming
  out   of   reverse   gear.
STOP
  mode   does   not   affect   the   the  
v
ehicle's   systems,   such   as   for   example,  
b
raking,   power   steering...
Special cases: STOP mode not 
available
STOP mode is not invoked principally when:
-  t he   vehicle   is   on   a   steep   slope   (rising   or  
f
alling),
-
 
t
 he   driver's   door   is   open,
-
 
t
 he   driver's   seat   belt   is   not   fastened,
-
 
t
 he   vehicle   has   not   exceeded   6   mph  
(
10 km/h)   since   the   last   engine   start   by   the  
d
river,
-
 
t
 he   engine   is   needed   to   maintain   a  
c
omfortable   temperature   in   the   passenger  
c
ompartment,
-
 
d
 emisting   is   active,
-
 
s

e
ngine   temperature,   braking   assistance,  
a
mbient   temperature...)   where   the   engine   is  
n
eeded   to   assure   control   of   a   system.
In this case, the "ECO"
 
warning  
l
amp   flashes   for   a   few   seconds   then  
g
oes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
The
 
Stop

and
 
silently.
Per fect

This operation is perfectly normal. Before
  doing   anything   under   the  
b
onnet, deactivate the Stop & Start 
system   to   avoid   any   risk   of   injury  
r
esulting   from   automatic   operation   of  
S
TART   mode.
This   system   requires   a   12   V   battery   with   a  
s
pecial   specification   and   technology   (reference  
n
umbers   available   from   CITROËN   dealers).
Fitting   a   battery   not   listed   by   CITROËN  
i
ntroduces   the   risk   of   malfunction   of   the  
s
ystem.
For   charging,   use   a   12   V   charger   and   do   not  r
everse   the   polarity.
Maintenance
The Stop & Start system makes use of a
dvanced   technology.   For   any   work   on  
t
he   system   go   to   a   qualified   workshop  
w
ith   the   skills   and   equipment   required,  
w
hich a CITR
oËn
  dealer is able to 
provide.

Electronic stability control (ESC)
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) 
and electronic brake force 
distribution (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and manoeuvrability   of   your   vehicle   when   braking  
a
nd   contributes   towards   improved   control   in  
c
orners, in particular on poor or slippery road 
surfaces.
The
  ABS   prevents   wheel   lock   in   the   event   of  
em
ergency
 b
 raking.
The
  electronic   brake   force   distribution   system  
m
anages   the   braking   pressure   wheel   by   wheel.
Emergency braking assistance 
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach   the   optimum   braking   pressure   more  
q
uickly   and   therefore   reduce   the   stopping  
di
stance.
It
  is   triggered   according   to   the   speed   at   which  
t
he   brake   pedal   is   pressed.   This   is   felt   by   a  
r
eduction in the resistance of the pedal and an 
increase
  in   the   effectiveness   of   the   braking.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction Control)   optimises   traction   in   order   to   limit  
w
heel   slip   by   acting   on   the   brakes   of   the   driving  
w
heels   and   on   the   engine.   It   also   improves  
t
he directional stability of the vehicle on 
acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path 
followed   by   the   vehicle   and   that   required   by  
t
he   driver,   the   DSC   monitors   each   wheel   and  
a
utomatically   acts   on   the   brake   of   one   or   more  
w
heels   and   on   the   engine   to   return   the   vehicle  
t
o   the   required   path,   within   the   limits   of   the   laws  
o
f   physics.

After

Activation
These systems are activated automatically each   time   the   vehicle   is   started.
As
  soon   as   they   detect   a   problem   of   grip   or  
t
rajectory,   these   systems   act   on   the   operation   if  
t
he   engine   and   brakes.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which   is   bogged   down,   stuck   in   snow,   on   soft  
g
round...),   it   may   be   advisable   to   deactivate  
t
he   DSC   system,   so   that   the   wheels   can   move  
f
reely   and   regain   grip.
This
 
is
 
indicated
 
by
 
flashing
 
of
 
this
 
w
