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.
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 ambient light
level 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.
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
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 help reduce the background traffic noise.
I
f your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds
above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well. The gear efficiency indicator invites you to 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.

Motorised tailgate
General points
Never place a finger in the locking
mechanism of the motorised tailgate -
Risk of serious injury!
Anti-pinch
The motorised tailgate includes a system
for detecting obstacles, which automatically
interrupts and reverses the movement by a few
degrees, to allow the obstacle to be cleared.
Note that this anti-pinch system does not
operate at the end of the closing movement
(around 1 cm before complete closure).
The motorised operation of the tailgate can
be activated or deactivated by selecting
"
Motorised tailgate " in the Driving menu of
the touch screen.
Bicycle carrier / Towbar
The tailgate is not designed to be fitted with a
bicycle carrier.
If a bicycle carrier is fitted to a towbar with a
wiring harness connected to a towbar socket,
the motorised operation of the tailgate is
automatically deactivated.
If using a towbar or bicycle carrier not approved
by CITROËN, it is essential to deactivate the
motorised operation of the tailgate.
Tailgate operation commands must be made
with the vehicle stationary.
Ensure that there is enough free space to allow
the motorised tailgate to open. To avoid the risk of injury through
pinching or trapping, before and during
operation of the tailgate:
-

e

nsure that there is no person close
to the rear of the vehicle,
-
w
atch the behaviour of rear
passengers, particularly children.

Recommendations related to the "Hands-free tailgate
access" function
If several passes of your foot below the rear
bumper fail to open the tailgate, wait a few
seconds before starting again.
The function is automatically deactivated in the
event of heavy rain or accumulation of snow.
If the function fails to operate, check that
the electronic key is not exposed to strong
electromagnetic inter ference (a smartphone, ...).
The function may not work correctly with a
prosthetic leg.
The function may not work correctly if your
vehicle is fitted with a towbar. In some circumstances, the tailgate may only
open or close, particularly if:
-

y
our vehicle is fitted with a towbar,
-

y
ou hitch or unhitch a trailer,
-

y
ou fit or remove a bicycle carrier,
-

y
ou load or unload bicycles from a bicycle
c a r r i e r,
-

y
ou place or lift something behind the
vehicle,
-

n animal approaches the rear bumper,
-

y
ou are washing your vehicle,
-

a s
ervice is being carried out on your
vehicle,
-

y
ou are accessing the spare wheel
(depending on version).
To avoid such operating problems, keep the
electronic key away from the recognition zone
or deactivate "Hands-free tailgate access".
Ensure that no object or person might prevent
the correct opening or closing of the tailgate.
Be particularly aware of children when
operating the tailgate.
