the vehicle with the ignition
on, as they could release the
parking brake.

Hill start assist


Manual operation
The MANUAL application/release of
the parking brake is always possible
by pulling/pushing the control lever B
,
keeping your foot on the brake pedal.
Before leaving the ve-
hicle, check that warn-
ing lamp A (!)
(red) in
the instrument panel is
on fi xed (not fl ashing) and that warn-
ing lamp P
(red) in the control lever B

is on.
If you leave the vehicle with the
engine still running, apply the
parking brake manually. Do not leave the vehicle while
it is being held in the temporary
immobilisation hill start assist
phase.
To aid starting on a gradient, your vehicle is equipped with a system which keeps
it immobilised for a short time (about
2 seconds), the approximate time it
takes to move your foot from the brake
pedal to the accelerator pedal.
This system is only active when:


-
The vehicle is completely stationary,
with your foot on the brake pedal.

- In certain conditions on a gradient.

- With the driver’s door closed. Before leaving the ve-
hicle, check that warn-
ing lamp A (!)
(red) in
the instrument panel is
on fi xed (not fl ashing) and that warn-
ing lamp P
(red) in the control lever B

is on.
Automatic operation
The electric parking brake releases
automatically and progressively when
you press the accelerator. With the
vehicle stationary, the parking brake
is automatically applied when the

A few definitions…


Range
(miles or km)
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)

Average fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)

Average speed
(mph or km/h)
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance which
can still be travelled with the fuel re-
maining in the tank in relation to the
average fuel consumption over the
last few miles (kilometres) travelled.
This value may vary following a
change in the style of driving or
the relief, resulting in a signifi cant
change in the current fuel con-
sumption.
When the range falls below 20 miles
(30 km), dashes are displayed. After
fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel,
the range is recalculated and is dis-
played when it exceeds 60 miles
(100 km).
If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h). This is the average fuel consump-
tion during the last few seconds.
This is the average fuel consump-
tion since the last trip computer zero
reset.
This is the average speed calculat-
ed since the last trip computer zero
reset (ignition on). This indicates the distance travelled
since the last trip computer zero reset.








Stop & Start time
counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
If your vehicle is fi tted with Stop &
Start, a time counter calculates the
time spent in STOP mode during a
journey.
It resets to zero every time the igni-
tion is switched on with the key.
