Parking sensors

This system measures the size of a free
parking space between two vehicles or
obstacles.

Stop & Start system

This system puts the engine temporarily into standby during
stops in the traffic (traffic lights, traffic jams, etc...). The engine
restarts automatically as soon as you want to move off. The
Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions, as well as noise levels when stationary.

A few definitions…

This value may vary following a change
in the style of driving or the relief,
resulting in a significant change in the
current fuel consumption.
If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
The fuel consumption of your vehicle will
be higher than the official figures obtained
by CITROËN during the first 3 000 miles
(5 000 km) of the vehicle's life.


Range

(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
which can still be travelled with the fuel
remaining in the tank in relation to the average
fuel consumption over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least
5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).

Current fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consumption during the
last few seconds.

Average fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consumption since the
last trip computer zero reset.

Average speed

(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed calculated
since the last trip computer zero reset
(ignition on).


Distance travelled

(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
travelled since the last trip computer zero reset.









Stop & Start time
counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/
minutes)
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time
counter calculates the time spent in STOP
mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the key.
