A few definitions…
Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still be 
travelled with the fuel remaining 
in the tank (at the average fuel 
consumption seen over the last 
few miles (kilometres) travelled).
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated over the last few seconds.
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated since the last trip 
computer reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
Calculated since the last trip 
computer reset.
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).
Stop & Start time 
counter
(minutes / seconds or hours / 
minutes)
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 CITR oËn dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
Calculated since the last trip 
computer reset.
The fuel consumption of your vehicle 
will be higher than the official figures 
obtained by CITROËN during the first 
1 800 miles (3 000 km) of the vehicle's 
life.
