Electronic gearbox
Electronically controlled gearbox which offers
a choice between the comfort of fully automatic
operation and manual gear changing.
Two driving modes are available:
-
a
utomatic operation for automatic control
of the gears by the gearbox, without any
action on the part of the driver,
-

man
ual operation for sequential gear
changing by the driver using the steering
mounted paddles.
With automatic operation, you can temporarily
take over control of gear changing at any time.

Stopping the vehicle
When immobilising the vehicle, with
the engine running, you must move the
selector to neutral N.
Before doing anything under the bonnet
ensure that the selector is in neutral N and
that the parking brake is applied.
Malfunction
With the ignition on, the flashing of A or
AUTO , accompanied by an audible signal and
a message, indicates a malfunction of the
gearbox.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
You must keep your foot on the brake
pedal while starting the engine.
In all parking situations, you must apply
the parking brake to immobilise the
vehicle.
Before switching off the engine, you can:
-

m

ove to position N to engage neutral,
or
-

l

eave the vehicle in gear; in this case the
vehicle cannot be moved.
In both cases, you must apply the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.). 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.
Going into engine STOP
mode
For your convenience during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
The Stop & Start does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering, etc.
A slight delay between the vehicle
stopping and the engine cutting out may
be noticed.
Driving

199
With a manual gearbox, when
vehicle speed is below 12 mph (20
km/h) or the vehicle is stationary
(depending on engine), the Stop &
Start warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically
when you place the gear lever in
neutral and you release the clutch
pedal.
With an automatic gearbox , vehicle
stationary, the Stop & Start warning lamp
on the instrument panel comes on and the
engine goes into standby automatically when
you press the brake pedal or place the gear
selector in position N .
With an electronic gearbox , vehicle speed
below 5

mph (8 km/h), the Stop & Start warning
lamp on the instrument panel comes on and the
engine goes into standby automatically when
you press the brake pedal or place the gear
selector in position N .
Stop & Start time counter
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time
counter adds up the time spent in STOP mode
during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on.
Special cases: STOP mode
not available
STOP mode is not invoked in certain temporary
conditions (examples: battery charge, engine
temperature, braking assistance, exterior
temperature) to assure correct operation of the
system and mainly when:
-

t
he vehicle is on a steep slope (uphill or
downhill),
-

t
he driver's door is open,
-

a s
liding side 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 by the
driver, In this case, this warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds then
goes off.
Going into engine START
mode
With an automatic gearbox
, the Stop & Start
warning lamp on the instrument panel goes off
and the engine restarts automatically when:
-

y
ou release the brake pedal with the gear
selector in position D or M ,
-

y
ou are in position N with the brake pedal
released and you move the gear selector to
position D or M,
-
y

ou engage reverse.
or
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes) -
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/defrosting is active.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition with
the button.
With a manual gearbox, the Stop
& Start warning lamp goes off on
the instrument panel and the engine
restarts automatically when you
press the clutch pedal fully down to
