Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. During acceleration change up early.
The
gear shift indicator invites you engage the most suitable gear: as
s
oon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it
s
traight away.
Control the use of your electrical
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning.
Above
30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents
ope
n.
Remember
to make use of equipment that can help keep the
t
emperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window
b
linds...).
To
save energy, do not set the air conditioning at too low a temperature.
As
soon as the desired temperature has been reached, limit the use of
t
he air conditioning, except if regulation is automatic.
Switch
off the demisting and defrosting controls as soon as you consider
p
ossible.
Switch
off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch
off the headlamps and foglamp when the level of light does not
r
equire their use.
Avoid
running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter; your
v
ehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As
a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices
(
film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting the
c
onsumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect
your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
With
an
electronic
gearbox,
do
not
press
the
accelerator
pedal
heavily
o
r
s
uddenly.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather t han the brake pedal, and press the accelerator progressively. These
p
ractices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions
and
also
help
reduce
the
background
traffic
noise.
If
your
vehicle
has
cruise
control,
make
use
of
the
system
at
speeds
a
bove
25
mph
(40
km/h)
when
the
traffic
is
flowing
well.

A few driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations at all times and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay
close attention to the traffic and keep your
h
ands on the wheel so that you are ready to
react
at any time to any eventuality.
On
a long journey, a break every two hours is
s
trongly
re
commended.
In
difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate
t
he need to brake and increase the distance
f
rom other vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads, as this could cause serious damage
t
o the engine or gearbox, as well as to the
e
lectrical systems of your vehicle.If
you are obliged to drive through water:
-
c
heck that the depth of water does not
e
xceed 15 cm, taking account of waves
t
hat might be generated by other users,
-
d
eactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
d
rive as slowly as possible without
stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (
10 km/h),
- d o not stop and do not switch off the
engine.
On
leaving the flooded road, as soon as
c
ircumstances allow, make several light brake
a
pplications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied - Risk of overheating and
d
amage to the braking system!
Do
not park or run the engine when
s
tationary in areas where inflammable
s
ubstances and materials (dry grass,
d
ead leaves...) might come into contact
w
ith the hot exhaust system - Risk of
f
ire!
ne
ver leave a vehicle unsupervised
with
the engine running. If you have
t
o leave your vehicle with the engine
r
unning, apply the parking brake
a
nd put the gearbox into neutral or
p
osition
N or P,
depending on the type
o
f gearbox.

the key into the ignition switch; the
s
ystem recognises the code.
In
certain cases, you may have to apply
m
ore force to the steering (wheels on
f
ull
lock, for example).
F
W
ith
a petrol engine, operate the starter
m
otor
by turning the key to position 3
without
pressing the accelerator pedal,
u
ntil
the engine starts. Once the engine is
r
unning, release the key. F
W ith a Diesel engine, turn the key to
p
osition 2,
ignition on, to operate the
eng
ine
p
re-heating
s
ystem.
Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the instrument panel then operate the starter m
otor by turning the key to position 3
without
pressing the accelerator pedal,
u
ntil the engine starts. Once the engine is
r
unning, release the key.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can stay on for a longer period. When
t
he engine is hot, the warning lamp
d
oes not come on. In
temperate conditions, do not leave
t
he engine at idle to warm up but move
o
ff straight away and drive at moderate
s
peed.
Never leave the engine running in
a
n enclosed area without adequate
v
entilation:
in
ternal
c
ombustion
e
ngines emit toxic exhaust gases,
s
uch as carbon monoxide. Danger of i
ntoxication and death.
In very severe wintry conditions
(temperatures
below -23°C), to ensure
t
he correct operation and durability of
the
mechanical components of your
v
ehicle, engine and gearbox, it is
n
ecessary to leave the engine running
f
or 4 minutes before moving off.
If
the engine does not start straight
a
way, switch off the ignition. Wait a few
m
oments before operating the starter
m
otor again. If the engine does not
s
tart after several attempts, do not keep
t
rying: you risk damaging the starter
m
otor or the engine.
Contact a CITR
