Driving
6partially recharge the traction battery, without
affecting the charge level indicator.
Progressive Hydraulic
Cushions
This suspension system with progressive hydraulic cushions improves driving comfort by
filtering out the imperfections and demands of
the road surface.
Each shock absorber is equipped with a
hydraulic compression stop (at the base) and a
hydraulic rebound stop (at the top).
Depending on the intensity of the shock to be
absorbed, these stops provide the vehicle with a
greater freedom of movement or gradually slow
down the amount of movement in order to avoid
any sudden jolts at the end of travel.
Unlike conventional suspension which absorbs
the energy but then partially returns some of it,
this active suspension absorbs and dissipates
this energy, without producing any rebound.
Driving modes
The number and type of driving modes available depend on the vehicle’s engine and equipment.
Driving modes are selected using one of the
following controls, depending on version:




1. Pressing the control activates Eco mode. The
indicator lamp comes on.
2. Pressing the control activates Sport mode.
The indicator lamp comes on.
3. Pressing the control displays the modes on
the instrument panel.
The selected mode is activated immediately.
With petrol / Diesel engines
Each time the ignition is switched on, Normal
mode is selected by default.
Eco
Reduces energy consumption by restricting the
performance of the heating and air conditioning
systems, although it does not deactivate them.
Normal
Restores the vehicle’s original settings.
Sport
Enables more dynamic driving with action on the
power steering, accelerator and gear changes
(with an automatic gearbox).
Depending on version, with an EAT8
gearbox and the selector in position D
(except Sport mode), fully releasing the
accelerator pedal allows free-wheeling which
can save fuel.
A drop in engine speed is normal (rev counter
at idle, drop in engine noise).
With rechargeable hybrid
engine
Each time the ignition is switched on, Electric
mode is selected by default.
Electric
Allows driving using 100% electrical energy.
The maximum speed is approximately 84 mph
(135
km/h).
When starting the vehicle, if the conditions do
not allow the activation or retention of Electric
mode, the message "Electric mode currently
unavailable" is displayed on the instrument
panel. The vehicle automatically changes to
Hybrid mode.
If a blue LED comes on under the interior rear
view mirror, visible from outside the vehicle, this
confirms that you are driving in Electric mode.

In the event of a breakdown
► Stop all power consumption.
► Immobilise the vehicle and switch the ignition
off.

Identify the defective fuse using the current
allocation tables and diagrams.
T

o replace a fuse, it is essential to:
►

Use the special tweezers to extract the fuse
from its housing and check the condition of its
filament.
►


Always replace the failed fuse with a fuse of
the same rating (same colour); use of a different
rating may cause malfunctions - risk of fire!
If the fault recurs after replacing a fuse, have the
electrical system checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
The fuse allocation tables and the corresponding diagrams are available
from a CITROËN dealer or from a qualified
workshop.
The replacement of a fuse not shown in the allocation tables may cause a serious
malfunction of your vehicle. Contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
