Distance travelled
(miles or km)
The distance which can still be travelled
with the fuel remaining in the tank (related to
the average fuel consumption over the last
few

miles (kilometres) travelled).
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least
5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km). Calculated over the last few seconds.

Stop & Start time
counter
(minutes / seconds or hours /
m inutes)
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time
counter calculates the time spent in STOP
mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the key.
This function is only displayed from
20

mph (30 km/h).
This value may vary following a change
in the style of driving or the relief,
resulting in a significant change in the
current fuel consumption.
If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
