Going into engine START
mode
The "ECO" warning lamp goes off
and the engine starts automatically:
Special cases: START invoked
automatically
In this case the "ECO" warning
lamp flashes for few seconds, then
goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal. For safety reasons or to ensure smooth
operation, START mode is invoked
automatically when:
- you open the driver's door,
- you unfasten the driver's seat belt,
- the speed of the vehicle exceeds 15 mph
(25 km/h) with a manual gearbox or 2 mph
(3 km/h) with an an automatic gearbox for
blueH di d iesel versions,
- the electric parking brake is being applied,
- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system. With a manual gearbox in STOP mode,
if a gear is engaged without fully
depressing the clutch pedal, a warning
lamp comes on or an alert message
is displayed asking you to depress the
clutch pedal to restart the engine.

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.
Maintenance
Before doing any work under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid the risk of injury related
to an automatic change to START
mode.
This system requires the use of a 12 V battery
of specific technology and characteristics
(reference numbers available from a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by CITROËN would
introduces the risk of faults with the system.
The Stop & Start system makes use of
an advanced technology. All work on
this type of battery must only be carried
out by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Fuel tank
Capacity of the tank: approximately 71 litres*.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level in the
tank is reached, this warning
lamp comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible warning and a message in the display
screen. When it first comes on, there remains
around 5 litres of fuel in the tank.
You must refuel to avoid running out of fuel.
F Press at the top left corner, then pull on its
edge. While you are refuelling, the engine must be
stopped and the ignition switched off.
F
Turn the key a quarter turn to lock and
unlock the filler cap.
F When refuelling, place the cap on hook A .
F Fill the tank, but do not persist after the
third cut-off ; this could cause your vehicle
to malfunction.
For a petrol engine with a catalytic
converter, the use of unleaded fuel is
compulsory.
The filler neck is narrower to ensure that only
unleaded petrol nozzles can be put in.
Opening the fuel flap Refuelling
Additions of fuel must be of at least
5 litres to be taken into account by the
fuel gauge.
Opening the filler cap may create a
noise of an inrush of air. This vacuum,
which is entirely normal, is caused by
the sealing of the fuel system.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key.
* 55 litres for Slovakia.
