Exterior


Customising kits

These expressive stickers form par t of a range
of kits, very different one from another, which
allow you to create a unique and attractive
exterior for your vehicle.

Guide-me-home lighting

compressor and a sealant cartridge, to allow
the temporary repair of a tyre.



190





Stop & Start

This system puts the engine
temporarily on standby during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic
jams, etc...). The engine restarts
automatically as soon as you want to
move off. The Stop & Star t system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions, and offers the comfor t of
complete silence when stationary.

Interior


Interior mood lighting

This subdued passenger compar tment lighting
improves visibility inside the vehicle in low
lighting conditions. It comprises several
lamps, located in the footwells and in the lower
dashboard storage compar tment.

Gear shift indicator

Associated with the manual gearbox, this
system suggests when to change up to obtain
optimum fuel consumption.

Scented air freshener

The scented air freshener diffuses the
selected fragrance throughout the passenger
compartment from its location in the ventilation
system.

Digital air conditioning

After setting the desired level of comfor t, the
system then automatically controls this level
according to the exterior climatic conditions.

Customise your vehicle

These styling stickers are treated to give good

Available also as accessories, we recommend
that you have them fitted by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.

Eco-driving

Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.


Optimise the use of your
gearbox

With a manual gearbox, move off gently,
change up without waiting and drive by
changing up quite soon. If your vehicle has
the system, the gear shift indicator invites you
to change up; it is displayed in the instrument
panel, follow its instructions.

With an automatic or electronic gearbox, stay
in Drive "D"
or Auto "A"
, according to the
type of gear selector, without pressing the
accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.



Drive smoothly


Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use
engine braking rather than the brake pedal,
and press the accelerator progressively. These
attitudes contribute towards a reduction in fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions and also helps
reduce the background traffic noise.

When the traffic is flowing well, and if you
have cruise control, make use of the system at
speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h).



Control the use of your
electrical equipment

Before moving off, if the passenger
compartment is too warm, ventilate it by
opening the windows and air vents before
using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows
and leave the air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment
that can help keep the temperature in the
passenger compar tment down (sun roof and
window blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has
automatic digital regulation, as soon as the
desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.
