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   gearbox,   give   preference   to   automatic   mode   and  
a

void   pressing   the   accelerator   pedal   heavily   or   suddenly.
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  
c

onditioning.
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   temperature
 i

n   the   passenger   compartment   down   (sunroof   and   window   blinds...).
Switch
  off   the   air   conditioning,   unless   it   has   automatic   regulation,   as  
s

oon   as   the   desired   temperature   is   attained.
Switch
  off   the   demisting   and   defrosting   controls,   if   not   automatic.
Switch
  off   the   heated   seat   as   soon   as   possible.
Switch
  off   the   headlamps   and   front   foglamps   when   the   ambient   light  
l

evel   does   not   require   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.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather than   the   brake   pedal,   and   press   the   accelerator   progressively.   These  
p

ractices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions
 
and
 
also
 
helps
 
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.
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
straight
 
away.
For
 
vehicles
 
fitted
 
with
 
an
 
automatic
 
gearbox,
 
this
 
indicator
 
appears

Motorised tailgate
General points
Never place a finger in the locking mechanism   of   the   motorised   tailgate   -  
R

isk   of   serious   injury!
Anti-pinch
The motorised tailgate includes a system for   detecting   obstacles,   which   automatically  
i

nterrupts and reverses the movement by a few
degrees,
  to   allow   the   obstacle   to   be   cleared.
Note that this anti-pinch system does not
operate
  at   the   end   of   the   closing   movement  
(

around   1   cm   before   complete   closure).
The
 
motorised
 
operation
 
of
 
the
 
tailgate
 
can
 b
e
 
activated
 
or
 
deactivated
 
by
 
selecting
 "
M
otorised tailgate " in the Driving menu of
the
 
touch
 
screen
 
tablet.
Bicycle carrier / Towbar
The tailgate is not designed to be fitted with a b icycle   carrier.
If a bicycle carrier is fitted to a towbar with a
wiring
  harness   connected   to   a   towbar   socket,  
t

he   motorised   operation   of   the   tailgate   is  
a

utomatically
 d
eactivated.
If
  using   a   towbar   or   bicycle   carrier   not   approved  
b

y CITROËN, it is essential to deactivate the
motorised
  operation   of   the   tailgate.

through

Operating faults
If several foot movements below the rear
bumper  fail   to   open   the   tailgate,   wait   a  
f

ew seconds   before   starting   again.
The function is automatically deactivated in the
event
  of   heavy   rain   or   accumulation   of   snow.
If
  the   function   fails   to   operate,   check  
t

hat   the   electronic   key   is   not   exposed   to  
s

trong   electromagnetic   inter ference   (a  
s

mar tphone, ...).
The
  function   may   not   work   correctly   with   a  
pro

sthetic
 le
g.
The
  function   may   not   work   correctly   if   your  
v

ehicle   is   fitted   with   a   towbar. In
  some   circumstances,   the   tailgate   may   only  o
pen   or   close,   particularly   if:
-

y
our vehicle is fitted with a towbar,
-

y
ou hitch or unhitch a trailer,
-

y
ou fit or remove a bicycle carrier,
-

y
ou load or unload bicycles from a bicycle
c a r r i e r,
-
 
y
ou   place   or   lift   something   behind   the

-
 
y
ou   are   accessing   the   spare   wheel  
(

depending

To
  avoid   such   operating   problems,   keep   the  
e

lectronic   key   away   from   the   recognition   zone  
o

r   deactivate   "Hands-Free   Tailgate   Access".
Ensure
  that   no   object   or   person   might   prevent
