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.

Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions).
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, put the selector
in position P or N to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle, unless it is programmed
to automatic mode.If the selector is not in position P ,
when the driver's door is opened or
approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off, there is an
audible signal and a message appears.
F
Re

turn the selector to position P ;
the audible signal stops and the
message disappears.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen to indicate a
gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel
a substantial knock when changing from P
to R and from N to R . This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. You risk damaging the gearbox:
-
if y

ou press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time,
-
if y

ou force the selector from
position P to another position when
the battery is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffic jam...), position
the gear selector at N and apply the
parking brake, unless it is programmed
in automatic mode.

Gear efficiency indicator*
On vehicle fitted with a manual gearbox,
the arrow may be accompanied by the
gear recommended.The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (slope, load, ...) and
the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking, ...).
The system never suggests:
-
en

gaging first gear,
-
engag

ing reverse gear.
With an automatic gearbox, the system
is only active in manual mode.
* Depending on engine.
On BlueHDi Diesel 135 and 150 versions with
manual gearbox, in certain driving conditions
the system may suggest changing into neutral
so that the engine can go into standby (STOP
mode with Stop & Start). In this case, N is
displayed in the instrument panel. System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one (or more) gear(s). You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
The gear engagement recommendations must
not be considered compulsory. In fact, the
configuration of the road, the amount of traffic
and safety remain determining factors when
choosing the best gear. Therefore, the driver
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated. Example:
- Yo
u are in third gear.
-
Yo

u press the accelerator pedal.
-
Th

e system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear.
The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow.

Tyre under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system continuously monitors the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the
vehicle is moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each tyre (except the spare wheel).
The system triggers an alert if a drop in
pressure is detected in one or more tyres.This system does not avoid the need
to check the tyre pressures regularly
(including the spare wheel) and before
a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle can
be found on the tyre pressure label.
The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.
For more information on identification
markings, including the tyre pressure
label, refer to the corresponding
section.
The tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.

Stop & Start
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "EcO" w arning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
-
wi

th a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) or vehicle stationary with
the THP 120 petrol and BlueHDi 115 and
120 Diesel versions, when you place the
gear lever in neutral and you release the
clutch pedal,
-
wi

th an automatic gearbox , vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or put the gear selector 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 & Start does not affect the
operation of vehicle systems such as
braking, power steering...
The Stop & Start
s

ystem puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, ...). 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.

Low fuel level
When the low fuel level in the tank is
reached, this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel, accompanied by
an audible warning and a message in
the instrument panel screen.
Fuel supply cut-offFuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with
E10 bio-petrol (containing 10 % ethanol),
conforming to European standards EN 228 and
EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol)
are reserved exclusively for vehicles marketed
for the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex
vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must
comply with European standard EN 15293.
When it first comes on, around 6 litres of fuel
remain in the tank.
Until sufficient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the ignition
is switched on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message. This audible signal
and message are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops and
approaches "0".
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out. Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device
which cuts off the fuel supply in the event of a
collision.
