Eco- driving
Optimise the use of your
gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently
and change up without waiting. During
acceleration, change up early.
With an automatic or electronic gearbox,
give preference to automatic mode and avoid
pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or
suddenly.
Adopt a smooth driving style
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles,
use engine braking rather than the
brake pedal, and press the accelerator
progressively. These practices contribute
towards a reduction in fuel consumption and
CO
2 emissions and also help to reduce the
background traffic noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of
the system at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h)
when the traffic is flowing well.
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 31 mph (50 km/h), close the windows
and leave the air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment that can
help keep the temperature in the passenger
compartment down (sunroof and window
blinds, etc.).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has
automatic regulation, as soon as the desired
temperature is attained. Switch off the lamps and foglamps when the
ambient light level does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up
much faster while driving. Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls when not required, if they are not
automatically controlled.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (film, music, video game,
etc.), you will contribute towards limiting the
consumption of electrical energy, and so of
fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before
leaving the vehicle.
The gear efficiency indicator invites you to
engage the most suitable gear: as soon as the
indication is displayed in the instrument panel,
follow it straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an electronic or
automatic gearbox, this indicator appears only
in manual mode. Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices
that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions.

A few definitions…
Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still be
travelled with the fuel remaining in
the tank (related to the average fuel
consumption over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled). This value may fluctuate if a change
of driving style or terrain results in a
significant change in the current fuel
consumption.
Dashes are displayed when the range falls
below 19 miles (30 km).
After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the
range is recalculated and is displayed if it
exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If dashes instead of figures continue to
be displayed when driving, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l) Calculated during the last few
seconds.
This function is only displayed at speeds
above 19 mph (30 km/h).

Stop & Star t time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
A cumulative time counter for periods in STOP
mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on.
Distance recorders
The total and trip distances are displayed for
thirty seconds when the ignition is switched off,

button 6 " OPTIONS " to adjust the automatic
comfort programme by choosing one of the
available settings.
F

T
o change the current setting,
press the button several times in
succession to access the desired
mode:
" Soft ": provides soft and quiet operation by
limiting air flow.
" Normal ": offers the best compromise between
a comfortable temperature and quiet operation
(default setting).
" Fast ": provides strong and effective air flow.
This setting is associated with AUTO mode
only. However, on deactivation of AUTO mode,
the last setting used remains set.
Changing the setting does not reactivate AUTO
mode if deactivated. In cold weather with the engine cold, the
air flow is increased gradually until the
comfort setting has been reached, in order
to limit the delivery of cold air into the
passenger compartment.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than the comfort setting requested, there
is no need to alter the value displayed
in order to reach more quickly the
required level of comfort. The system
compensates automatically and corrects
the temperature difference as quickly as
possible.
You can manually adjust the air flow and
distribution.

Panoramic glazed sunroof
This glazed roof provides increased visibility
and light in the passenger compartment, while
maintaining normal temperatures thanks to its
"high thermal protection" coating.
Advice on care
In order to preser ve the properties of the
glazed roof, we recommend wiping or cleaning
the inner glass using a clean, soft and dry
cloth.
For stubborn stains, the glass should be
cleaned using screenwash fluid, rinsed with
clean water, then dried with a clean, soft cloth.
Do not use soapy water, abrasive
products, detergents (particularly those
with an ammonia base), solvents,
solutions with a high concentration of
alcohol, petrol, etc.

night, using the front foglamps and the
rear foglamp is prohibited. In these
situations, the power of their beams may
dazzle other drivers. They should only be
used in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps
and dipped beam headlamps manually as
the sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light.
Switch off the front and rear foglamps
when they are no longer necessary.
Switching off of the lighting when the
ignition is switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of the
lighting turns off immediately, except for
dipped beam if automatic guide-me-home

ASR/DSC
These systems offer increased safety
in normal driving, but they should not
encourage the driver to take extra risks or
drive at high speed.
It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain,
snow, ice) that the risk of loss of grip
increases. It is therefore important for your
safety to keep these systems activated in
all conditions, and particularly in difficult
conditions.
The correct operation of these
systems depends on obser vation of
the manufacturer's recommendations
regarding as much the wheels (tyres and
rims), braking and electronic components
as the assembly and repair procedures
used by CITROËN dealers.
To benefit in full from the effectiveness
of these systems in wintry conditions,
the vehicle must be fitted with four snow
tyres, allowing the vehicle to retain neutral
behaviour on the road.Grip control
Special patented traction control system which
improves traction on snow, mud and sand.
This system, the operation of which has been
optimised for each situation, allows you to
manoeuvre in most conditions of poor grip
(encountered when using a passenger car).
Associated with 205/50 R17 all-season M+S
(Mud and Snow) tyres, this system offers a
compromise between safety, grip and traction.
These tyres are efficient in winter and summer
conditions.
The accelerator pedal should be pressed
sufficiently to allow the system to use the power
of the engine. Operation at high engine speeds
is completely normal.
A five-position selector knob allows you to
choose the setting best suited to the driving
conditions encountered.
An indicator lamp associated with each mode
comes on to confirm your choice.
A specific and additional display appears
temporarily in the touch screen to confirm the
selection made with the knob.
Standard (ESC)
This mode is calibrated for a low level of wheel
spin, based on the different levels of grip
normally encountered on the road.F

P
lace the knob in this position.
Every time the ignition is switched off, the
system automatically resets to this mode.
Snow
This mode adapts its strategy to the conditions
of grip encountered for each of the two front
wheels on moving off.
(mode active up to 50 mph (80 km/h)) F

P
lace the knob in this position.
Safety

75
All road (mud, damp grass,
etc.)
This mode, when moving off, allows
considerable spin on the wheel with the least
grip to optimise clearing of the mud and regain
grip. At the same time, the wheel with the most
grip is controlled in such a way as to pass as
much torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.
(mode active up to 31 mph (50 km/h))F

P
lace the knob in this position.
Sand
This mode allows little spin on the two driving
wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to
move for ward and limit the risks of getting stuck
in the sand.
(mode active up to 75 mph (120 km/h))F

P
lace the knob in this position.
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck. You can deactivate the ASR
and DSC systems by turning
the knob to the "
OFF" position.
The ASR and DSC systems will no longer
have an effect on engine operation or
the brakes in the event of an involuntary
change of trajectory.
These systems are reactivated
automatically from 31 mph (50 km/h) or
every time the ignition is switched on.
Driving recommendations
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive on tarmac roads but it allows you to
occasionally drive on other less passable
terrain.
However, it does not permit off-road
driving such as:
- c rossing and driving on terrain which
could damage the underbody or strip
away components (fuel pipe, fuel
cooler, etc.) due to obstacles or stones
in particular,
-

d
riving on terrain with steep gradients
and poor grip,
-

c
rossing a stream.
Seat belts
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a
pretensioning and force limiting system.
This system improves safety in the front
seats in the event of a front or side impact.
Depending on the severity of the impact, the
pretensioning system instantly tightens the seat
belts against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of
the seat belt on the occupant's chest, thus
improving their protection.
