Stop & Start
Operation
- with a manual gearbox, at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) with BlueHDi Diesel
versions, when you put the gear selector
into neutral and release the clutch pedal,
-

w
ith an automatic gearbox, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or place the gear selector in position N .
Going into engine STOP
mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
If your vehicle is fitted with the
system, a time counter calculates
the sum of the periods in STOP
mode during a journey. It resets
itself to zero every time the
ignition is switched on with the
key.
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams...).
The engine restarts automatically - START
mode - as soon as you want to move off.
The restart takes place instantly, quickly and
silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key.
For your comfort, when parking, STOP
is not available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse.
The Stop & Start system does not affect
the functionality of the vehicle, such as
braking, power steering...

Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction with the system,
the "ECO OFF" switch warning lamp flashes
for a few seconds, then comes on continuously.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.In the event of a fault in STOP
mode, the vehicle may stall. All of
the instrument panel warning lamps
come
on.
Depending on version, an alert
message may also be displayed
asking you to put the gear selector into
position

N and to put your foot on the
brake pedal.
It is then necessary to switch off the
ignition, then restart the engine using
the key.
The Stop & Start requires the use of a
12 V battery of special technology and
characteristics.
All work on this type of battery must
only be carried out by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
For more information on the
12
V batter y, refer to the corresponding
section.

Parking space sensors
System which measures the parking space
available between two vehicles or obstacles. It
measures the size of the space and gives you
information on:
-
t
he possibility of fitting into a free space,
depending on the dimensions of your
vehicle and the distances necessary for
your manoeuvres,
-

t
he level of difficulty of the manoeuvre to
be performed.
The system does not measure spaces which
are clearly much smaller or larger than the size
of the vehicle. The parking space sensor system warning
lamp can have three different states:
-

o
ff: the system is not selected,
-

o
n fixed: the system is selected but the
conditions for measuring are not yet met
(direction indicator not operating, speed too
high) or the measurement is terminated.
-

f
lashing: measurement is in progress or
the message is being displayed. You can select the "parking space sensor"
system by pressing button A
. The fixed
illumination of the warning lamp indicates that
the system is selected.
During the measurement, the message
"Measurement in progress - Vmax 20 km/h
(12 mph)" is displayed in the instrument panel
screen.Displays in the instrument panel

uring measurement, go for ward the
length of the space, at a speed less than
12 mph (approx. 20 km/h), to prepare for

he system informs you of the level
of difficulty of the manoeuvre via a
message in the instrument panel screen
accompanied by an audible signal.
F

D
epending on the message issued by the
system, you may or may not be able to
per form the manoeuvre.The system displays the following types of message:
Parking YES
Parking DIFFICULT
Parking NO The system is deselected automatically:
-

w
hen you engage reverse gear,
-
w
hen you switch off the ignition,
-
i
f measurement is not requested,
-
w
ithin five minutes of selection of the
system,
-
i
f the vehicle speed exceeds the
threshold of 45 mph (approx. 70 km/h) for
one minute.
If the lateral distance between your vehicle and
the parking space is too large, the system may
not be able to measure the space.
The system remains available after each
measurement and thus can measure more than
one space during your search.
In bad weather conditions or in winter, make
sure that the sensors are not covered by dirt, or
by ice or snow.
The parking space sensor system deactivates
the front parking sensors during space
measurement when you are in for ward gear.
If there is a fault, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
