LOAD REDUCTION MODE

System which manages the use of cer-
tain functions according to the level of
charge remaining in the battery.

When the vehicle is being driven, the
load reduction function temporarily deac-
tivates certain functions, such as the air
conditioning, the heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivat-
ed automatically as soon as conditions
permit.








ENERGY ECONOMY MODE

System which manages the period of
use of certain functions to conserve a
suffi cient level of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio
equipment, windscreen wipers, dipped
beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc.
for a maximum combined period of thirty
minutes.

Switching to economy mode

Once this period has elapsed, a mes-
sage appears in the screen indicating
that the vehicle has switched to econ-
omy mode and the active functions are
put on standby.
If the telephone is being used at
the same time on the navigation
system, it will be interrupted after
10 minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the engine
from starting (refer to the corre-
sponding paragraph).


Exiting economy mode

These functions are reactivated auto-
matically the next time the vehicle is
driven.


)
In order to resume the use of these
functions immediately, start the engine
and let it run for a few minutes.
The time available to you will then be
double the period for which the engine
is left running. However, this period will
always be between fi ve and thirty minutes.

This period may be greatly re-
duced if the battery is not fully
charged.

This call is dealt with by the CITROËN Emergency team which receives
locating information from the vehicle and can send a detailed alert to the
appropriate emergency services. In countries in which the team is not
operational, or when the locating service has been expressly declined,
the call is dealt with directly by the emergency services (112) without the
vehicle location.

If an impact is detected by the airbag ECU, and independently
of the deployment of any airbags, an emergency call is made
automatically.


* These services are subject to conditions and availability.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
If you purchased your vehicle outside the CITROËN dealer network,
we invite you to have a dealer check the confi guration of these services
and, if desired, modifi ed to suit your wishes. In a multi-lingual country,
confi guration is possible in the offi cial national language of your choice.
If you benefi t from the CITROËN eTouch offer, you also have available
additional services in your MyCITROEN personal space, via the CITROËN
Internet website www.citroen.co.uk.

For technical reasons, particularly to improve the quality of telematic
services for customers, the manufacturer reserves the right to carry out
updates to the vehicle's on-board telematic system.

" should be used in preference if
"Streaming" is not desired.
Then accept automatic connection on the telephone to allow
the telephone to reconnect automatically every time the vehicle
is started.


USING THE TELEPHONE


The ability of the system to connect in only one mode depends on
the telephone. The two modes may both connect by default.

manual and with your network provider for details of the services available to you.

Select a code for the connection then
confi rm " OK

On return to the vehicle, the last telephone connected
automatically reconnects, within around 30 seconds after

Insert the CD in the player, insert the USB memory stick
in the USB player or connect the USB peripheral to the
USB port using a suitable cable (not supplied).
The system builds playlists (in temporary memory), an
operation which can take from a few seconds to several
minutes at the fi rst connection.
Reduce the number of non-music fi les and the number
of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition is
switched off or connection of a USB memory stick.
However, the system memorises these lists and if they
are not modifi ed, the loading time will be shorter.
Play starts automatically after a period which depends
on the capacity of the USB memory stick.

08 TRIP COMPUTER


Each press of the button, located at the end of the
wiper stalk, displays the different trip computer
information in succession, depending on the screen.


- the "vehicle " tab with:


●
the range, the current fuel consumption and
the distance remaining to the destination or the
Stop & Start time counter,

- the "1" tab (trip 1) with:


●
the average speed, the average consumption
and the distance travelled calculated over trip " 1
",

- the "2" tab (trip 2) with the same information for a
second trip.

Zero reset
When the required trip is displayed, press the control
for more than two seconds.

Range:
displays the distance which can travelled with the remaining fuel
detected in the tank, basd on the average consumption over the last few
miles (kilometres).
This displayed value may vary signifi cantly following a change in the
vehicle speed or the relief of the route.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km), dashes are displayed.
After fi lling with at least 10 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If, whilst driving, dashes are displayed continuously in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
A FEW DEFINITIONS


Current fuel consumption:
only calculated and displayed above 20 mph (30 km/h).


Average fuel consumption:
this is the average fuel consumption since
the last trip computer zero reset.

Distance travelled:
calculated since the last trip computer zero reset.

Distance remaining to the destination:
calculated with reference to
the fi nal destination, entered by the user. If guidance is activated, the
