Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the
vehicle; place the heaviest items
in the bottom of the boot, as close
as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the
vehicle and reduce wind resist-
ance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle
carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box
in preference. Remove roof bars
and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove
snow tyres and refi t your summer
tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
when cold, referring to the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:-before a long journey,-at each change of season,-after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and
the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regu-
larly (engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...)
and observe the schedule of oper-
ations recommended by the manu-
facturer.When refuelling, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle
to avoid any overfl ow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will
see the fuel consumption settle
down to a consistent average.

Wheel not detected
TheSERVICEwarning lamp comes on and a vehicle outline is displayed.
The wheel(s) concerned can be identifi ed from the vehicle outline, on which it (they) will be missing. If you have notchanged a wheel, such information indicates that the system is malfunctioning.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop for the replacement of the faulty sensor(s).
Colour screen CNaviDrive colour display
The defl ation detection system is a driving aid, but which does not absolve the driver from the need to be vigilant andresponsible.
This system does not remove the need to check the tyres on a regular basis (see "Vehicle identifi cation"), to makesure that the vehicle is behaving correctly and to avoid premature tyre wear arising from driving too fast etc.
Do not forget to check the pressure in the spare wheel.
All repairs or replacement of tyres on wheels fi tted with sensors must be done by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
The system may suffer from temporary interference caused by radio transmissions on neighbouringfrequencies.
