Manual gear changing
When the vehicle has moved off, select
position M
to change to manual mode.
Operate the +
or -
steering mounted control
paddles.
A
UTO
disappears and the gears
engaged appear successively in the
instrument panel screen. The gear change requests are only carried out
if the engine speed permits.
It is not necessary to release the accelerator
during gear changes.
When braking or slowing down, the gearbox
changes down automatically to permit
acceleration in the correct gear.
This selective gear change mode enables you
to overtake, for example, while still remaining in
automatic mode.
Operate the +
or -
steering mounted control
paddle.
The gearbox engages the gear requested if the
engine speed permits. AUTO
is still displayed
in the instrument panel.
After a few moments without any action on
the controls, the gearbox resumes automatic
control of the gears.
Manual mode
At very low speed, if reverse gear is
requested, this will only be taken into
account when the vehicle is immobilised
(foot on the brake). A warning lamp
appears in the instrument panel screen.
On sharp acceleration in manual mode,
the gearbox will not change up unless
the driver acts on the gear lever or the
steering mounted paddles.
Never select neutral N
while the vehicle
is moving.
Only engage reverse gear R
when the
vehicle is immobilised with the brake
pedal pressed.

You must press the brake pedal when
starting the engine.
Whatever the circumstances, you must
manually apply the parking brake when
parking, unless the parking brake is
programmed in automatic mode.
When immobilising the vehicle, with
the engine running, you must place the
gear lever in neutral N
.
Before carrying out any work in the
engine compartment, check that the
gear lever is in neutral N
and that the
parking brake is applied.
Stopping the vehicle
With the ignition on, the
flashing of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message
in the instrument panel screen, indicates a
malfunction of the gearbox.
Have it checked by CITROËN or a qualified
workshop. Before switching off the engine, you can
choose to:
- move to position N
to engage neutral,
- leave the gear engaged; in this case, it will
not be possible to move the vehicle.
In both cases, you should apply the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle.

Stop & Start
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO"
warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
- with a manual gearbox
, at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) or vehicle stationary with
the Blue HDi 120 version, when you place
the gear lever in neutral, and you release
the clutch pedal,
- with an electronic gearbox
, at speeds
below 5 mph (8 km/h), when you press
the brake pedal or put the gear lever in
position N
,
- with an automatic gearbox
, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or put the gear lever in position N
. If your vehicle is fitted with the system, a time
counter calculates the sum of the periods in
STOP mode during a journey. It resets itself to
zero every time the ignition is switched on with
the START/STOP button.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the START/STOP button.
For your comfort, during parking
maoeuvres, 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...
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the vehicle is on a steep slop (rising or
falling),
- 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 START/STOP button,
- the electric parking brake is applied or
being applied,
- 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.
In this case, the "ECO"
warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds then goes
off. 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.
This operation is per fectly normal.

Going into engine START mode
The "ECO"
warning lamp goes off
and the engine starts automatically:
- with a manual gearbox
, when you fully
depress the clutch pedal,
- with an electronic gearbox
:
●
gear lever in position A
or M
, when you
release the brake pedal,
●
or gear lever in position N
and brake
pedal released, when you place the gear
lever in position A
or M
,
●
or when you engage reverse.
- with an automatic gearbox
:
●
gear lever in position D
or M
, when you
release the brake pedal,
●
or gear lever in position N
and brake

lever in position D
or M
,
●
or when you engage reverse.
START mode is invoked automatically when:
- the driver's door is open,
- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,
- the speed of the vehicle exceeds 15 mph
(25 km/h) with a manual gearbox (2 mph
(3 km/h) with the Blue HDi 120 version),
7 mph (11 km/h) with an electronic gearbox
and 2 mph (3 km/h) with an automatic
gearbox.
- the electric parking brake is being applied,
- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed for control of a system.
Special cases: START invoked
automatically
If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.
At any time, press the "ECO OFF"
switch to
deactivate the system.
This is confirmed by the switch warning lamp
coming on accompanied by a message in the

129Driving
The system is reactivated automatically
at every new start using the START/
STOP button.
Reactivation
Press the "ECO OFF"
switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off and a
message in the screen.
Operating fault
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.
Depending on version, an alert message may also
be displayed, asking you to place the gear lever in
position N
and put your foot on the brake pedal.
It is then necessary to switch off the ignition and
start the engine again using the "START/STOP"
button.
Before doing anything under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid any risk of injury
resulting from automatic operation of
START mode.
This system requires a 12 V battery with a
special specification and technology (reference
numbers available from CITROËN dealers).
Fitting a battery not listed by CITROËN
introduces the risk of malfunction of the
system.
For charging, use a 12 V charger and do not
reverse the polarity.
Maintenance
The Stop & Start system makes use of
advanced technology. For any work on
the system go to a qualified workshop
with the skills and equipment required,
which a CITROËN dealer is able to
provide.

With the engine running, press button 1
.
The activated/deactivated status when the
engine was switched off is retained when
the engine is switched on again.
The strip retracts automatically 3 seconds after
switching off the engine except in STOP mode
of Stop & Start.
Activation / Deactivation
With the engine running, adjust the
brightness of the information using
button 3
:
- towards the rear to increase the
brightness,
- towards the front to decrease the
brightness.
Brightness adjustment
We recommend that adjustments are
only made using these buttons when
the vehicle is stationary.
When stationary or while driving, no
objects should be placed around the
transparent strip (or on its cover) to
avoid blocking the strip output and
preventing its correct operation.
In certain extreme weather conditions
(rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, ...)
the head-up display may not be legible
or may suffer temporary inter ference.
Some sunglasses may hamper reading
of the information.
To clean the transparent strip, use a
clean, soft cloth (such as a spectacles
cloth or microfibre cloth). Do not use
a dry or abrasive cloth or detergent or
solvent products as these could scratch
the strip or damage the anti-reflection
coating.
Height adjustment
With the engine running, adjust the display
to the required height using button 2
:
- towards the rear to move the display up,
- towards the front to move the display
down.

Lighting left on audible
signal
An audible signal when a front door
is opened warns the driver that the
vehicle's exterior lighting is on, with the
ignition off and in manual lighting mode.
In this case, switching off the lighting
stops the audible signal.
With the ignition off, if the dipped
headlamps remain on, the vehicle goes
into "ECO" mode to avoid discharging
the battery.
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal sur face of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps
is normal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.
The daytime running
lamps can be activated
and deactivated via the
configuration menu.
The lighting goes off when you switch
off the ignition, but you can always
switch it on again using the lighting
control stalk.
Daytime running lamps
(LEDs)
They come on when the engine is started.
Depending on the country of sale or where
required by regulations, they are used for:
- daytime running lamps in day mode and
sidelamps in night mode (they are brighter
when daytime running lamps),
or
- sidelamps in day and night mode.
