Stop & Start

This system puts the engine tempo-
rarily into standby during stops in the
traffi c (red lights, traffi c jams, etc...).
The engine restarts automatically as
soon as you want to move off.
Stop & Start reduces fuel consump-
tion, exhaust emissions and noise
when stationary.

Lane departure warning system

This driving aid warns you when you
unwittingly cross a lane marking.


Parking sensors (visual and
audible)

This system warns you if an obsta-
cle is detected in front of or behind
the vehicle.
Tyre under-infl ation detection

This system checks the pressure of
the tyres automatically while driving.
Xenon dual-function directional
headlamps

This system automatically provides
you with extra visibility on bends.
This lighting is linked with the cor-
nering lighting which maximises the
illuminated area at intersections and
when parking.

MONITORING
TRIP COMPUTER
System which provides current in-
formation concerning your journey
(range, consumption, etc.)



Information displays
Trip zero reset
The trip computer is displayed in the
instrument panel screen.


)
Turn the left-hand thumb wheel A

on the steering wheel to display
the various trip computer tabs in
succession:


- the current information tab is
displayed in zone B
of the in-
strument panel screen, with:


●
the range,

●
the current fuel consumption,

●
the digital speed reading or
the Stop & Start time counter.

- the trip "1"
tab is displayed in
zone C
of the instrument panel
screen, with:


●
the distance travelled,

●

the average fuel consumption,


●
the average speed,
for the fi rst trip.

- the trip "2"
tab is displayed in
zone C
of the instrument panel
screen, with:


●
the distance travelled,

●

the average fuel consumption,


●
the average speed,
for the second trip.




)
When the trip required is dis-
played, press the left-hand thumb
wheel on the steering wheel for
more than two seconds.
Trips "1"
and "2"
are independent

A few definitions
(trip computer)

Range
(miles or km)
Current fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)

Average fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)

Average speed
(mph or km/h)
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance which
can still be travelled with the fuel re-
maining in the tank in relation to the
average fuel consumption over the
last few miles (kilometres) travelled.
This value may vary following a
change in the style of driving or
the relief, resulting in a signifi cant
change in the current fuel con-
sumption.
When the range falls below 20 miles
(30 km), dashes are displayed. After
fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel,
the range is recalculated and is dis-
played when it exceeds 60 miles
(100 km).
If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h). This is the average fuel consump-
tion during the last few seconds.
This is the average fuel consump-
tion since the last trip computer zero
reset.
This is the average speed calculated
since the last trip computer zero reset
(ignition on). This indicates the distance travelled
since the last trip computer zero reset.








Stop & Start time
counter
(minutes / seconds or hours /
minutes)
If your vehicle is fi tted with Stop &
Start, a time counter calculates the
time spent in STOP mode during a
journey.
It resets to zero every time the igni-
tion is switched on with the key.

COMFORT
The "Demisting" mode controls the
temperature, air fl ow and intake
and distributes the ventilation to the
windscreen and front side windows.
Resuming manual control exits from
"Demisting" mode. It must be can-
celled to permit renewal of the air
in the passenger compartment and
demisting.
Once the screen is clear, press-
ing control 1
returns the system to
"AUTO"
mode.


)
Press control 7
, with
the engine running,
to demist the rear
screen and the door
mirrors. The indica-
tor lamp comes on.
7. Rear demisting - defrosting
The heated rear screen operates in-
dependently of the air conditioning
system.
8. Intake of exterior air /
Recirculation of interior air
This function enables you to isolate
the passenger compartment from
exterior fumes and odours.


- When starting with the engine
cold, the fl ow will reach its
optimum level gradually to
prevent an excessive distribu-
tion of cold air.

- When entering the vehicle af-
ter it has been parked for a
fairly long period, if the inte-
rior temperature is very differ-
ent from your comfort setting
there is no need to change
the temperature displayed
in order to quickly reach the
level of comfort required. The
system automatically uses its
maximum performance to cor-
rect the difference in tempera-
ture as quickly as possible.

- The water resulting from the
air conditioning condensation
is discharged via an open-
ing provided for this purpose;
therefore, a puddle of water
may form underneath the ve-
hicle when stationary.

- In all seasons, if the weather
is cool, the air conditioning
is useful as it removes the
humidity from the air and the
condensation. Avoid driving
for prolonged periods with the
air conditioning switched off.

However, demisting resumes when
the engine is switched on again.
Switch off the rear screen and door
mirrors demisting when you consider
this necessary as low current con-
sumption reduces fuel consumption.
)
Press control 8
to set
the air intake mode,
the indicator lamp
comes on.






With Stop & Start, when demist-
ing has been activated, the STOP
mode is not available.

Demisting is switched off automatically
to prevent an excessive consumption
of current and in relation to the ambient
temperature.
It may be stopped by pressing con-
trol 7
again or when the engine is
switched off.
It must be cancelled as soon as
possible to permit renewal of the
air in the passenger compartment
and demisting.



You can store the air condition-
ing settings. Refer to the "Storing
driving positions" section.
