Return to automatic operation
F At any time, press the button selected again to exit from the programme engaged
and return to auto-adaptive mode. A strong snatch may be felt when
selecting
R for reverse gear.
In the event of a fault, the gearbox is
blocked in one gear; do not exceed a
speed of 62 mph (100 km/h).
Do not turn off the engine while the gear
selector is in position D or R .
Never press the accelerator and brake
pedals simultaneously. Braking and
acceleration should be done with the
right foot only. Pressing both pedals
simultaneously may damage the
gearbox.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the ambient temperature is
below
-23°C, the engine should be left
running at idle for four minutes, in order
to ensure the correct operation and
durability of the engine and gearbox.

System which reduces fuel consumption by advising the driver to change up.
The system intervenes only when driving
economically.
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one or more gears. You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
The gear engagement recommendations must
not be considered compulsory. In fact, the
configuration of the road, the amount of traffic
and safety remain determining factors when
choosing the best gear. Therefore, the driver
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.Example:
-

Y
ou are in third gear.
-

Y
ou press the accelerator pedal
moderately. The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow accompanied by
the suggested gear.
Gear efficiency indicator*
In the case of driving which makes
particular demands on the per formance
of the engine (firm pressure on the
accelerator pedal, for example, when
overtaking...), the system will not
recommend a gear change.
The system never suggests:
-

e
ngaging first gear,
-
enga

ging reverse gear,
-

e
ngaging a lower gear.
Operation
* Depending on engine. -
T
he system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear, if appropriate.
With an electronic or automatic
gearbox, the system is only active in
manual mode.

Stop & Start
Operation
- with an electronic gearbox, at speeds
below 4 mph (6 km/h), press the brake
pedal or put the gear lever in position N .
Going into engine STOP
mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:
If your vehicle is fitted with the
system, a time counter calculates
the sum of the periods in STOP
mode during a journey. It rests itself
to zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the key.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
In this case, the "ECO" warning
lamp flashes for a few seconds then
goes
off.
This operation is perfectly normal. STOP mode is not invoked when:
-

t

he driver's door is open,
-

t

he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-

t

he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start using
the key,
-

t

he electric parking brake is applied or
being applied,
-

t

he engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
-

d

emisting is active,
-

s

ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
The Stop & Start

system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
The

engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key. For your comfort, during parking
maoeuvres, STOP mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...

ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed for control of a system. At any time, press the "ECO OFF" switch to
deactivate the system.
This is confirmed by the switch warning lamp
coming on accompanied by a message in
the screen.
Deactivation
If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.
Driving

123
Reactivation
In the event of a fault with the system,
the "ECO OFF" switch warning lamp flashes
then comes on continuously.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall: all the instrument panel
warning lamps come on. It is then necessary
to switch off the ignition and start the engine
again using the key.
Operating fault Maintenance
This system requires a 12 V battery with a
special specification and technology (reference
numbers available from CITROËN dealers).
Fitting a battery not listed by CITROËN
introduces the risk of malfunction of the
system.
To charge the battery, use a 12 V charger and
observe the polarity.Before doing anything under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid any risk of injury
resulting from automatic operation of
START mode.
The Stop & Start system makes use of
advanced technology. For any work on
the system go to a qualified workshop
with the skills and equipment required,
which a CITROËN dealer is able to
provide.
The system is reactivated automatically
at every new start using the key.
Press the "ECO OFF" switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off and a
message in the screen.

Tyre under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system continuously monitors the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the
vehicle is moving.The tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver. This system does not avoid the need
to check the tyre pressures regularly
(including the spare wheel) and before
a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey).
The tyre pressures for your vehicle can
be found on the tyre pressure label (see
the "Identification markings" section).
The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each tyre (except the spare wheel).
The system triggers an alert if a drop in
pressure is detected in one or more tyres.
driving

125
The loss of pressure detected does not
always lead to visible deformation of the
tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.The alert is maintained until the tyre or
tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired
or replaced.
The spare wheel (space-saver type or a
steel rim) does not have a sensor.
Under-inflation alert
The aler t is given by the fixed illumination
of this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal, and depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres,
the symbol or the message appears, according
to equipment, to identify it.

n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (according to equipment).
Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed
illumination of the under-inflation
warning lamp accompanied by
the illumination of the service warning lamp
indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is
not assured.
This alert is also displayed when one or more
wheels is not fitted with a sensor (for example,
a space-saver or steel spare wheel).
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop
to have the system checked
or, following the repair of a puncture, to
have the original wheel, equipped with a
sensor, refitted.
Any tyre repair or replacement on a
wheel fitted with this system must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If after changing a tyre, a wheel is not
detected by your vehicle (fitting snow
tyres for example), you must have the
system reinitialised by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Speed limiter
Steering mounted controls
The speed limiter switches are located on the
left-hand side of the steering wheel.
Displays in the instrument panel
The speed limiter information is displayed in
zone A of the instrument panel.
System which prevents the vehicle from
exceeding the speed programmed by the


driver.
When the limit speed is reached, the
accelerator pedal no longer has any effect.
The speed limiter is switched on manually:
a

speed of at least 20 mph (approx. 30 km/h)
must be programmed.
The speed limiter can in no circumstances
replace keeping to speed limits or the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
