25Familiarisation
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 or electronic 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.
With an electronic or 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
equipment
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.

Starting-switching off the engine
Insert the electronic key in the reader.
Press the brake pedal for vehicles with
an automatic or electronic gearbox, or
fully declutch for vehicles with a manual
gearbox.
Starting using
the electronic key
Starting with the "Keyless
Entry and Starting" system
If one of the starting conditions is not
met, a reminder message appears in
the instrument panel screen. In some
circumstances, it is necessary to turn
the steering wheel slightly while pressing
the "START/STOP" button to assist
unlocking of the steering; a message
warns you when this is needed.
With a manual gearbox
, put the gear lever in neutral.
With an electronic gearbox
, put the gear lever in N
.
With an automatic gearbox
, put the gear lever in P
or N
.
For Diesel vehicles
, in
temperatures below zero the
engine will not start until the
preheater warning lamp has gone off.
If this warning lamp comes on after
pressing "START/STOP", you should
hold the brake or clutch pedal down
until the warning lamp goes off and
do not press the START/STOP button
again.
With the electronic key inside the vehicle
(it is not necessary to put it in the reader),
press the brake pedal for vehicles with an
automatic or electronic gearbox, or fully
declutch for vehicles with a manual gearbox.
Press the " START/STOP
"
button.
The engine starts (see the
warning below for Diesel
vehicles).
Press the " START/STOP
" button.
The engine starts (see the
warning below for Diesel
vehicles).
The "Keyless Entry and Starting" device
must be in the recognition zone.
For safety reasons, do not leave
this zone with the vehicle running.

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.

183Safety
Intelligent traction control
system ("Snow motion")
Your vehicle has a system to help driving on
snow: intelligent traction control.
This system detects situations of difficult
sur face adhesion that could make it difficult to
move off or make progress on deep fresh snow
or compacted snow.
In these situations, the intelligent traction
control
limits the amount of wheel slip to
provide the best traction and trajectory control
for your vehicle.
In extremely severe conditions (deep snow,
mud, ...), when it proves impossible to move off,
it may be useful to temporarily deactivate the
ESP/ASR systems to allow the wheels to spin
freely and so allow movement of the vehicle.
Operation
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
In emergency braking, press
ver y firmly without releasing the
pressure.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
make sure that these are approved for
your vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal. When this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message, it indicates that
there is a fault with the ABS, which
could cause loss of control of the vehicle when
braking.
When this warning lamp comes on,
coupled with the STOP
warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message, it indicates
that there is a fault with the electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD), which could cause
loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on sur faces offering low levels
of adhesion.

229Practical information
Driving advice
Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight approaches
the maximum permitted without
exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine per formance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.
Side wind
Take into account the increased sensitivity
to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
To lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towed load on a long incline
depends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
If the warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a long
mountain type of descent, the use of engine
braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, obser ving the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
Check the electrical lighting and signalling
on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
CITROËN towbar is used.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for details
of the weights and towed loads which apply to
your vehicle.

247Checks
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle ser vices.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Brake pads
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Brake disc wear
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any
routine ser vicing. However, in the
event of a problem, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
units as important as those in the
braking system, CITROËN selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness,
or in wintry conditions, ice can form
on the brake discs and pads: braking
efficiency may be reduced. Make light
brake applications to dry and defrost
the brakes.
For more information, refer to the "Electric
parking brake - Operating faults" section.

The kerb weight is equal to the unladen weight + driver (75 kg).
**
The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, if the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced by an equal amount; warning,
towing using a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.
The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for
each additional 1 000 metres of altitude.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the per formance of the vehicle to protect the engine; if the ambient temperature is above 37 °C,
limit the towed load.
