Digital air conditioningThe air conditioning operates when the engine is running, as well as in STOP mode with Stop & Start.
Automatic operation
1. Automatic "comfort" programme
Press the "AUTO"  button.  T
he "AUTO"  symbol   is   displayed.
We
  recommend   that   you   use  
t

his   mode.   It   provides   optimised  
a

utomatic
  control   of   all   of   the   following  
f

unctions:
  passenger   compartment  
t

emperature,   air   flow,   air   distribution   and   air  
i

ntake,
 
in
 
accordance   with   the   comfort   value  
t

hat
 
you
 
have   chosen.
This
 
system   is   designed   to   operate   effectively  
i

n
 
all
 
seasons,   with   the   windows   closed. For
  your   comfort,   when   the   engine   is  
s

witched   off,   the   settings   are   retained  
u

ntil   the   engine   is   switched   on   again.
To   prevent   too   great   a   distribution   of  
c

old   air   when   the   engine   is   cold,   the   air  
f

low   will   only   reach   its   optimum   level  
g

radually.
2. Temperature adjustment
The value indicated on the display corresponds
to
  a   level   of   comfort   and   not   to   a   temperature   in  
d

egrees   Celsius   or   Fahrenheit. On
  entering   the   vehicle,   if   the   interior  
i

s very cold or hot, there is no need to
change   the   value   displayed   in   order  
t

o   reach   the   required   level   of   comfort.  
T

he   system   corrects   the   temperature  
d

ifference   automatically   and   as   quickly  
a

s   possible.
Press the " 5" and " 6" buttons to
change
  this   value.   A   setting   around  
t

he value 21
 
enables   optimum  
c

omfort   to   be   obtained.   However,  
d

epending   on   your   requirements,   a  
s

etting   between   18   and   24   is   usual.
3. Automatic "visibility" programme
The automatic comfort programme m
ay   not   be   sufficient   for   rapid  
d

emisting   or   defrosting   of   the  
w

indscreen and side windows
(humidity,
  several   passengers,   ice,   etc.).
In
 
this
 
case,   select   the   automatic   visibility  
p

rogramme.   The   button   3   indicator   lamp  
comes
 
on.
The
 
system   automatically   controls   the   air  
c

onditioning   and   the   flow   of   air   and   provides  
o

ptimum
 
air   distribution   to   the   windscreen   and  
s

ide
 
windows.   It   deactivates   air   recirculation   5.
To
 
exit
 
this   programme,   press   button   3   again  
or "AUTO" ,

b

een   activated,   the   STOP   mode   is   not  
a

vailable.

Driving
This section describes the use of the parking brake, the manual, electronic   or   automatic   gearbox,   the   gear   shift   indicator   and   Stop   &   Start t

o   help   reduce   fuel   consumption,   hill   start   assist,   the   speed   limiter   to  
a

void   exceeding   a   programmed   speed,   cruise   control   to   maintain   a  
p

rogrammed   speed,   the   rear   parking   sensors   to   detect   obstacles.

DS3_en_Chap06_conduite_ed01-2014
Stop & StartThe 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.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
For your comfort, during parking manoeuvres,   STOP   mode   is   not  
a

vailable for a few seconds after
coming
  out   of   reverse   gear.
STOP
  mode   does   not   affect   the  
f

unctionality of the vehicle, such as for
example,
  braking,   power   steering...
Never
  refuel   with   the   engine   in   STOP

The system is reactivated automatically at   every   new   start   using   the   key.
Reactivation
This system requires a battery with a special specification   and   technology   (reference  
n

umbers   available   from   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q

ualified
 w
orkshop).
Fitting
  a   battery   not   listed   by   CITROËN  
i

ntroduces   the   risk   of   malfunction   of   the

Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables you to   obtain   the   optimum   braking   pressure   more  
q

uickly,   thus   reducing   the   stopping   distance.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake pedal   is   pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase in
braking
 e

fficiency.
When
  braking   in   an   emergency,   press  
f

irmly   without   releasing   the   pressure.
Trajectory control systems
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
programme (ESP)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as Traction Control)   optimises   traction   to   prevent   skidding  
o

f   the   wheels,   by   acting   on   the   brakes   of   the  
d

riving   wheels   and   on   the   engine.
The
  electronic   stability   programme   acts   on   the  
b

rake   of   one   or   more   wheels   and   on   the   engine  
t

o   keep   the   vehicle   on   the   trajectory   required  
b

y   the   driver,   within   the   limits   of   the   laws   of  
p

hysics.Activation
These systems are activated automatically each   time   the   vehicle   is   started.
They
  come   into   operation   in   the   event   of   a   grip  
o

r
 t
rajectory
 pro
blem.
This
  is   indicated   by   flashing   of   this  
w

arning   lamp   in   the   instrument   panel.

Fuel tankFuel tank capacity: approximately 50 litres (petrol) or 46 litres (diesel) or 33 litres (LPG); (de pending on version: approximately 30 litres
(petrol or d iesel)).
Low fuel level
Filling
A label affixed to the inside of the flap reminds you   of   the   type   of   fuel   to   be   used   depending   on  
y

our
 eng
ine.
Additions
  of   fuel   must   be   of   at   least   7   litres,   in  
o

rder   to   be   registered   by   the   fuel   gauge.The
  key   cannot   be   removed   from   the  
l

ock   until   the   cap   is   refitted.
Opening
  the   filler   cap   may   create   a  
n

oise   caused   by   an   inrush   of   air.   This  
v

acuum   is   entirely   normal,   resulting  
f

rom   the   sealing   of   the   fuel   system.
To
  fill   the   tank   safely:
F

t
he engine must be switched off,
F

o
pen the fuel filler flap,
F
 
i
nsert   the   key   in   the   cap,   then   turn   it   to   the  
l

eft,F
 r emove   the   cap   and   hook   it   onto   the   clip  
l

ocated on the inside of the flap,
F
 
f
ill   the   tank,   but do not continue after the
3rd cut- off of the pump ;
  this   could   cause  
m

alfunctions.
When
  you   have   filled   the   tank:
F
 
p
ut   the   cap   back   in   place,
F
 
t
urn   the   key   to   the   right,   then   remove   it  
f

rom   the   cap,
F
 
c
lose   the   flap.
When
  the   fuel   tank   minimum   level  
i

s   reached   this   warning   lamp   comes  
o

n   on   the   instrument   panel.   When   it  
f

irst   comes   on   there   remains   approximately
5 litres   of   fuel   in   the   tank.
You   must   refuel   as   soon   as   possible   to   avoid  
r

unning   out   of   fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer also to the
"Checks"
 s
ection.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system   in   STOP   mode;   you   must   switch  
o

ff   the   ignition   with   the   key.
