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
ope
n.
Remember
to make use of equipment that can help keep the
t
emperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window
b
linds...).
Switch
off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regulation, as
s
oon 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.
Switch
off the headlamps and front foglamps when the level of light
d
oes not require their use.
Avoid
running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter; your
v
ehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
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 and change up without waiting. During acceleration change up early.
With
an automatic or electronic gearbox, give preference to automatic
m
ode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
The
gear shift indicator invites you engage the most suitable gear: as
s
oon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it
s
traight away.
For
vehicles fitted with an electronic or automatic gearbox, this
i
ndicator appears only in manual mode.
drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather than the brake pedal, and press the accelerator progressively. These
p
ractices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions
and
also
helps
reduce
the
background
traffic
noise.
control the use of your electrical
equipment
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds a bove 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.As
a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices
(
film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting the c
onsumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.

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.

Cruise control
System which automatically maintains the speed of the vehicle at the value programmed
b
y the driver, without any action on the
accelerator
ped
al.
The cruise control is switched on
m
anually:
it r
equires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(
40 km/h), as well as the engagement of:
-
f
ourth gear on a manual gearbox,
-
s
econd gear on a or automatic or electronic
g
earbox, in sequential mode,
-
position A
on an electronic gearbox or
p
osition d on an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off
m
anually
o
r by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or
o
n triggering of the ESP system for safety
r
easons.
It
is possible to exceed the programmed speed
t
emporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To
return to the programmed speed, simply
r
elease the accelerator pedal.
Switching
off the ignition cancels any
p
rogrammed speed value. The

Exceeding the programmed speed
Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the programmed speed results in flashing of this speed in the screen.
Return
to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or unintentional
d
eceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of the speed.
Leaving cruise control mode
F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the "0" position: the cruise control mode is d
eselected. The display returns to the distance recorder.
Operating fault
In the event of a cruise control malfunction, the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the
d
ashes. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer
o
r a qualified workshop.
When the cruise control is switched on,
be
careful if you maintain the pressure
o
n one of the programmed speed
c
hanging buttons: this may result in
a
very rapid change in the speed of
y
our vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on
slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
on a s
teep descent, the cruise control
will not be able to prevent the vehicle
from
exceeding the programmed
s
peed.
To
avoid any risk of jamming of the
ped
als:
-
e
nsure that the mat is secured
c
o r r e c t l y,
-
n
ever fit one mat on top of another.
