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 gearbox, give preference to automatic mode and 
avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
The gear efficiency indicator invites you engage the most suitable gear: 
as soon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it 
straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox, this indicator 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 
practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2 
emissions and also helps reduce the background traffic noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds 
above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.
control the use of your electrical 
e quipment
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 
open.
Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the 
temperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window 
blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regulation, as 
soon 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 
does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter; your 
vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices 
(film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting the 
consumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.

Indicator and warning lamps
When the engine is started, these same 
warning lamps should go off.
If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the 
information on the warning lamp concerned.
Associated warnings
The switching on of certain warning lamps may 
be accompanied by an audible signal and a 
message in the instrument panel screen.
The warning lamps may come on continuously 
(fixed) or flash.Certain warning lamps may come on in 
one of two modes: fixed (continuous) or 
flashing.
Only by relating the type of illumination 
to the operation of the vehicle can it 
be determined whether the situation is 
normal or a fault has occurred.
Refer to the tables on the following 
pages for more information.
Visual indicators informing the driver that a 
system is in operation, switched off or has a 
fault.
When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few 
seconds in the instrument panel and/or 
instrument panel screen when the vehicle's 
ignition is switched on.

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance 
guidelines below:
F
 To o
btain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles 
located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well 
as the air extractor located in the boot.
F
 Do n
ot cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation 
of the digital air conditioning system.
F
 Op
erate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month 
to keep it in per fect working order.
F
 En
sure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter 
elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
 We r
ecommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its 
special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the 
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic 
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
F
 To e
nsure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have 
it checked regularly as recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.
F
 If t
he system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
You can switch off the air conditioning (AC button) and stay in Automatic mode in order 
to limit fuel consumption. If misting appears while in this mode, you can switch the air 
conditioning back on temporarily to improve the situation.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the 
air conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine, 
the interior temperature is very high, first 
ventilate the passenger compartment for 
a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high 
enough to quickly change the air in the 
passenger compartment.
The air conditioning system does not 
contain chlorine and does not present 
any danger to the ozone layer.
The condensation created by the air 
conditioning results in a discharge 
of water under the vehicle which is 
per fectly normal.
If you want to prioritise heating, start 
and leave the engine running by 
pressing ECO OFF.

Dual-zone digital air conditioning
1. Automatic comfort programme
We recommend the use of one of 
the three AUTO modes available: 
they provide optimised regulation of 
the temperature in the 
 p
assenger F Pr
ess the "AUTO" button repeatedly:
-
 a fi
rst indicator lamp comes on; the "low" 
setting mode is selected,
-
 a se
cond indicator lamp comes on; the 
"medium" setting mode is selected,
-
 a th
ird indicator lamp comes on; the 
"high" mode setting is selected.
Use the "medium" and "high" settings in 
preference to maintain the comfort level at the 
r e a r. When the engine is cold, the air 
flow will reach its optimum level 
progressively, taking account of the 
weather and the desired comfort level 
so as to avoid too great a distribution 
of cold air.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior 
temperature is much colder or warmer 
than the comfort value, there is no 
need to change the value displayed in 
order to obtain the comfort required. In 
all seasons, with the windows closed 
the system corrects the difference 
in temperature automatically and as 
quickly as possible.
This system is designed to operate effectively 
in all seasons, with the windows closed.

that you have chosen.
These three modes automatically control the 
system, according to the desired setting, while 
also maintaining the desired comfort value.

Electronic engine immobiliser
The keys contain an electronic chip which has 
a secret code. When the ignition is switched 
on, this code must be recognised in order for 
starting to be possible.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks the 
engine management system a few minutes 
after the ignition is switched off and prevents 
starting of the engine by anyone who does not 
have the key.
In the event of a malfunction, you are informed 
by a message in the instrument panel screen.
In this case, your vehicle does not start; contact 
a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
With the electronic key in the reader or the 
Keyless Entry and Starting key inside the 
vehicle, pressing the "START/STOP" button,
