Eco-driving
You will only see the fuel consumption of your
new vehicle settle down to a consistent average
after the first 1,900 miles (3,000 kilometres).
Optimising the driving range
(rechargeable hybrid vehicles)
Connect the vehicle as soon as possible.
Favour the ECO zone of the power indicator by
driving smoothly and at a steady speed.
Anticipate slowing down as much as possible
and, if possible, favour decelerations with
regenerative braking mode activated (power
indicator in the CHARGE zone).
With the vehicle connected, carry out
temperature pre-conditioning before setting off.
To optimise consumption during a journey:
►

Programme a destination in the vehicle’
s
GPS navigation system.
►

Select the
Hybrid driving mode.
►

Make sure that the battery charge level is
close to maximum.
►


Do not use the e-Save function while driving.
►

fuel remaining in the tank (based on the
average fuel consumption over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled).
This value may vary following a change in driving
style or terrain, leading to a significant change in
current fuel consumption.
When the range falls below 19 miles (30
km),
dashes are displayed.
After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range
is recalculated and is displayed if it exceeds 62
miles (100
km).
If dashes instead of figures continue to be
displayed while driving, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.

long audible signal).
Manual operation
The tailgate can be manoeuvred by hand, even
with motorised operation activated.
The tailgate must be stationary.
When opening and closing the motorised tailgate
manually, there is no assistance from gas struts.
Resistance to opening and closing is therefore
entirely normal.
Repeatedly opening and closing the
motorised tailgate can cause overheating
of its electric motor, after which opening and
closing will not be possible.
Allow at least 10 minutes for the electric
motor to cool down before operating the
tailgate again.
If you are unable to wait, operate it manually.
Manual closing of the
motorised tailgate in case of
failure
This operation is only necessary in the case of
failure of the tailgate motor .
If the failure originates from the battery, it is
recommended to recharge it or change it with the
tailgate closed.
In this situation, a significant force may be
needed to close the tailgate.

► Position yourself behind the vehicle by the
number plate and perform a “kicking” movement
in the
"OK" detection zone.
The “kicking” movement must be given forwards,
smoothly, not too fast and with a vertical
movement from low to high. Raise the foot
sufficiently and remove it immediately.
The taking into account of the “kicking”
movement is confirmed by the lighting of the
direction indicators.
"Sideward kicking" movements do not
work. If the “kicking” movement has not
been detected, wait at least 2 seconds before
repeating the movement.
Do not perform repetitive “kicking”
movements.
If the tailgate has not started to open, check that:
–

the function is activated.
–


the electronic key is on your person, outside
the vehicle in the rear recognition area.
–


the “kicking” movement was performed in the
detection zone, close enough to the bumper

.
–

the foot was removed from the bumper quickly
enough.
Automatic locking with the hands-free
function
The automatic locking of the vehicle with
the hands-free function can be activated/
deactivated via the Driving/V
ehicle touch
screen menu.
Recommendations on the hands-free
function ("Hands-Free Tailgate Access")
If it does not work, check that the electronic key
is not exposed to a source of electromagnetic
interference (e.g. smartphone).
The function may be deactivated or affected if
there is rain or snow.
The function may not work correctly with a
prosthetic leg.
In some circumstances, the tailgate may open or
close by itself, particularly when:
–

hitching up or removing a trailer;
–


fitting or removing a bicycle carrier;
– loading or unloading bicycles on / from a
bicycle carrier;
–

depositing or lifting something behind the
vehicle;
–


an animal approaches the rear bumper;
–


washing the vehicle;
–


maintenance is performed on the vehicle;
–


accessing the spare wheel.
