Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday
practices that allow the motorist to optimise their
fuel consumption and CO
2emissions.
Optimise your use of the gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and
change up promptly. While accelerating, change
up early.
With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic
mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The gear efficiency indicator prompts you to
engage the most suitable gear: whenever this
indication is displayed on the instrument panel,
follow it straight away.
With an automatic gearbox, this indicator
appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use
engine braking rather than the brake pedal and
press the accelerator gradually. These attitudes
help to save fuel, reduce CO
2 emissions and
decrease general traffic noise.
If the vehicle has the steering-mounted
"CRUISE" control, use cruise control at speeds
above 25 mph (40
km/h) when the traffic is
flowing well.
Use electrical equipment wisely
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment
is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows
and air vents before using the air conditioning.
At speeds above 31
mph (50 km/h), close the
windows and leave the air vents open.
Consider using equipment that can help keep
the temperature in the passenger compartment
down (sunroof blind and window blinds, etc.).
Unless automatically regulated, switch off the air
conditioning as soon as the desired temperature
has been reached.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting functions,
if they are not managed automatically.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and foglamps when
the visibility conditions do not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up
much faster while driving.
As a passenger, avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (film, music, video game,
etc.) to help reduce consumption of electrical
energy, and hence fuel.
Disconnect all portable devices before leaving
the vehicle.
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the
heaviest items in the boot, as close as possible
to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
minimise wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer, etc.). Preferably, use a
roof box.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit
summer tyres.
Avoid using the SPORT mode for too long, in
order to limit your fuel consumption.
Comply with servicing instructions
Check tyre pressures regularly, with the tyres
cold, referring to the label in the door aperture on
the driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
–
before a long journey
.
–
at each change of season.
–
after a long period out of use.
Do not overlook the spare wheel and, where
applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil,
oil filter
, air filter, passenger compartment filter,
etc.) and observe the schedule of operations in
the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system
is faulty, your vehicle will emit pollution. Visit
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
as soon as possible to restore your vehicle’s
nitrogen oxide emissions to regulatory
compliance.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the third nozzle cut-out, to avoid overflow.
You will only see the fuel consumption of your
new vehicle settle down to a consistent average
after the first 1,900 miles (3,000 kilometres).

Access
If an opening (door or boot) is not
properly closed, the vehicle is not locked,
but the exterior perimeter monitoring will be
activated after 45 seconds.
Deactivation
► Press the remote control unlocking
button.
or
► Unlock the vehicle with the Keyless Entry and
Starting system.
The monitoring system is deactivated: the
indicator lamp in the button goes off and the
direction indicators flash for about 2 seconds.
If the vehicle automatically locks itself
again (as happens if a door or the boot is
not opened within 30 seconds of unlocking),
the monitoring system is automatically
reactivated.
Triggering of the alarm
This is indicated by sounding of the siren
and flashing of the direction indicators for 30
seconds.
Depending on the country of sale, certain
monitoring functions remain active until the alarm
has been triggered eleven times consecutively.
When the vehicle is unlocked using the remote
control or the Keyless Entry and Starting system,
rapid flashing of the red indicator lamp in the
button informs you that the alarm was triggered
Closing
► Lower the tailgate using the interior grab
handle.
If the tailgate is not fully closed:
–
with the engine running or the vehicle
moving (speed below 6 mph (10 km/h)) , a
message appears in the screen.
–
with the vehicle moving (speed above 6
mph (10 km/h))
, a message appears in the
screen, accompanied by an audible signal.
Back-up release
To manually unlock the boot in the event of a
battery or central locking failure.
Unlocking
► Fold the rear seats to gain access to the lock
from inside the boot.
► Insert a small screwdriver into hole A of the
lock to unlock the boot.
►
Move the latch to the left.
Locking after closing
If the fault persists after closing again, the boot
will remain locked.
In the event of a fault with the central
locking system, it is essential to
disconnect the battery to lock the boot and so
ensure complete locking of the vehicle.
Alarm
(Depending on version)
System which protects and provides a deterrent
against theft and break-ins.
Exterior perimeter monitoring
The system checks for opening of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to open a
door, the boot or the bonnet, for example.
Self-protection function
The system checks for the putting out of service
of its components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery, the central
control or the siren wiring is put out of service or
damaged.
For all work on the alarm system, contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Locking the vehicle with full
alarm system
Activation
► Switch off the ignition and exit the vehicle.
► Lock or deadlock the vehicle using the
remote control or with the “Keyless Entry and
Starting” system.

Access
Window controls remain operational for
approximately 45 seconds after switching
off the ignition or after locking the vehicle.
After that time, the controls are disabled.
To reactivate them, switch on the ignition or
unlock the vehicle.
Anti-pinch
If the window meets an obstacle while rising, it
stops and immediately partially lowers again.
Reinitialising the electric
windows
After reconnecting the battery, or in the event
of abnormal window movement, the anti-pinch
function must be reinitialised.
The anti-pinch function is disabled during the
following sequence of operations.
For each window:
►
Lower the window fully
, then raise it; it will
rise in steps of a few centimetres each time the
control is pressed. Repeat the operation until the
window is fully closed.
►
Continue to pull the control upwards for at
least one second after the window reaches the
closed position.
If an electric window meets an obstacle
during operation, the movement of the
window must be reversed. To do this, press
the relevant switch.
When the driver operates the passenger
electric window switch, it is important to
ensure that nothing can prevent the window
from closing properly.
Pay particular attention to children when
operating windows.
Rear door windows
Each window can be hinged open to provide
ventilation at the rear seats.
Opening
► Turn the lever outwards.
► Push it fully to secure the window in the open
position.
Closing
► Pull the lever to release the window .
► T urn the lever fully inwards to secure the
window in the closed position.

3Front seats
Correct driving position
For safety reasons, adjustments must
only be made when the vehicle is
stationary.
Before taking to the road and to make the most
of the ergonomic layout of the instruments and
controls, carry out these adjustments in the
following order:
–
head restraint height.
–
seat backrest angle.
–
seat cushion height.
–
longitudinal seat position.
–
steering wheel height and reach.
–
rear view mirror and door mirrors.
Once these adjustments have been
made, check that the instrument panel
can be viewed correctly from your driving
position.
Adjustments Forwards-backwards
► Raise the control bar and slide the seat
forwards or backwards.
►
Release the bar to lock the seat in position on
one of the notches.
Before moving the seat backwards,
ensure that there is nothing that might
prevent the full travel of the seat.
There is a risk of trapping or pinching
passengers if present in the rear seats or
jamming the seat if large objects are placed
on the floor behind the seat.
Backrest angle
► Turn the knob to adjust the backrest.
Height
► Pull the control upwards to raise the seat or
push it downwards to lower the seat, until the
position required is obtained.

Steering wheel
adjustment
► When stationary, lower the control A to
release the steering wheel.
► Adjust the steering wheel height and reach to
suit your driving position.
► Raise the control A to lock the steering
wheel.
As a safety precaution, these operations should only be carried out while the
vehicle is stationary.
► Turn the knob manually to obtain the desired
level of lumbar support.
Head restraint height
adjustment
► To raise it, pull it upwards as far as possible
(notch).
►
T
o remove it, press the lug A and pull it
upwards.
►
T
o put it back in place, engage the head
restraint rods in the openings keeping them in
line with the seat backrest.
►
T
o lower it, press the lug A and push down on
the head restraint at the same time.
The head restraint has a frame with notches which prevents it from lowering;
this is a safety device in case of impact.
The adjustment is correct when the upper
edge of the head restraint is level with the
top of the head.
Never drive with the head restraints removed;
they must be fitted and correctly adjusted.
Heated seats
► With the engine running, use the adjustment
knob to switch on and select the level of heating
required:
0
: Off.
1
: Low.
2
: Medium.
3
: High.
The front seats can be heated individually.
Before leaving the vehicle, ensure that
the adjustment knob of the passenger
seat is at position
0, so that the heating does
not unnecessarily operate if no passenger is
present during the next journey.
Do not use the function when the seat
is not occupied.
Reduce the heating intensity as soon as
possible.
When the seat and passenger compartment
have reached a satisfactory temperature,
switch the function off; reducing electricity
consumption in turn decreases fuel
consumption.
Prolonged use of the heated seats is not
recommended for those with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (illness, taking
medication, etc.).
To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent
a short circuit:
–
do not place sharp or heavy objects on the
seat,
–
do not kneel or stand on the seat,
–
do not spill liquids onto the seat,
–
never use the heating function if the seat
is wet.

Safety
5Deactivation is confirmed by the
illumination of this indicator lamp in the
instrument panel and the display of a message.
The ASR system is reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched back on or
from 31 mph (50
km/h).
Reactivation is manual below 31 mph (50 km/h).
Malfunction
In the event of a system malfunction, this
warning lamp comes on, accompanied by
an onscreen message and audible signal.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the systems checked.
ASR / DSC
These systems enhance safety during
normal driving, but 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.
Correct operation of these systems depends
on compliance with the manufacturer's
recommendations relating to the wheels
(tyres and rims), braking and electronic
components, as well as the assembly and
repair procedures used by CITROËN dealers.
The use of snow tyres is recommended, to
ensure that these systems remain effective
in winter conditions. All four wheels must be
fitted with tyres approved for the vehicle.
Seat belts
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a pyrotechnic
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 chest of the occupant, thus
improving their protection.
Locking
► Pull the strap then insert the tongue in the
buckle.
►
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap.
Release
► Press the red button on the buckle.
► Guide the seat belt as it reels in.
