Anti-theft protection
Electronic engine immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has a special  code.  When  the  ignition  is  switched Â
o
n,  this  code  must  be  recognised  in  order  for Â
s
tarting  to  be  possible.
This
 electronic  engine  immobiliser  locks  the Â
e
ngine  management  system  a  few  moments Â
a
fter  the  ignition  is  switched  off  and  prevents Â
s
tarting  of  the  engine  by  anyone  who  does  not Â
h
ave  the  key.In the event of a fault, you are
informed
 by  illumination  of  this Â
w
arning  lamp,  an  audible  signal  and Â
a
 message  in  the  screen.It
 has  3  positions:

d
rops  to  a  reserve  level,  the  system  goes  into Â
e
nergy  economy  mode:  the  power  supply  is Â
a

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 Â
a
vailable  for  a  few  seconds  after Â

 mode  does  not  affect  the Â
f
unctionality of the vehicle, such as for
example,
 braking,  power  steering...

5Driving
Stop & Start
The 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
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key. The "ECO"
warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:
- with a manual gearbox
, at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h), when you put the gear
lever into neutral, and you release the
clutch pedal.
- with a 5 or 6-speed electronic gearbox
,
when stationary or at speeds below 5 mph
(8 km/h) (depending on version), when
you press the brake pedal or put the gear
selector in position N
.
- with an automatic gearbox
, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or you place the gear selector in position N
. A time counter calculates the sum
of the periods in STOP mode
during a journey. It rests itself
to zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the key. STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the driver's door is open,
- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,
- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start using
the key,
- the engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
- demisting is active,
- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
The "ECO"
warning lamp flashes for
a few seconds then goes off.
This operation is per fectly normal.

7Driving
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
numbers available from a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by CITROËN
introduces the risk of malfunction of the system.
In the event of a fault with the system, the
"ECO OFF"
switch warning lamp flashes then
comes on continuously.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall. All of the instrument panel
warning lamps come on. It is then necessary
to switch off the ignition and start the engine
again using the key.
Operating fault
Maintenance
Before doing anything under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid any risk of injury
resulting from automatic operation of
START mode.
The Stop & Start system makes use
of advanced technology. All work
on this type of battery must be done
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Press the "ECO OFF"
switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off,
accompanied by a message in the screen.
