Invalid value in manual operationThis symbol is displayed if a gear is
not engaged correctly (gear selector
between two positions).
You can temporarily take control of gear
changes using the
"
+ " and " -" steering mounted
control paddles. If the engine speed allows, the
instruction to change gear is acted on.
This function allows you to anticipate certain
situations such as overtaking another vehicle or
approaching a bend.
After a few moments with no action on the
control paddles, the gearbox manages the
gears automatically again.
Temporary manual control of the
gears
Manual mode
D and the gear engaged are displayed in the
instrument panel.
The gearbox operates in auto-active
mode, without any action from the driver. It
continuously selects the most appropriate gear
according to the following conditions:
-
o
ptimisation of fuel consumption,
-
d
riving style,
-
r
elief of the road,
-
v
ehicle load.
Automated mode
F Select position D .
For maximum acceleration, without touching
the gear selector, press the accelerator fully
down (kick down). The gearbox changes down
automatically and maintains the gear selected
until the maximum engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically for more effective engine braking.
When you take your foot off the accelerator
pedal suddenly, the gearbox does not change
up, so as to improve safety. F
Sel ect position M.
F
U
se the "+" and " -" steering mounted
control paddles to change gear.
The gears engaged are displayed successively
in the instrument panel.
When stationary or at very low speed, the
gearbox automatically engages 1st g e a r.
In manual mode, it is not necessary to release
the accelerator pedal when changing gear.
The change from one gear to another is only
effected if the conditions of vehicle speed and
engine speed allow; other wise the automatic
laws of operation are imposed temporarily.
If the engine speed is too high or too low,
the display of the gear selected flashes for a
few seconds, then the new gear engaged is
displayed.
It is possible to change mode at any
time, by moving the gear selector
from
D to M or the other way round.

Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one or more gears.
You can follow this instruction without going
through the intermediate gears.
Gear efficiency indicator
System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the most suitable gear.The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (gradient, load, etc.)
and the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking, etc.).
The system never suggests:
-
e
ngaging first gear,
-
enga
ging reverse gear,
-
c
hanging down.
The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow.
On vehicles with a manual gearbox, the arrow
may be accompanied by the recommended
g e a r.
The gear engagement recommendations
must not be considered compulsory.
This is because the confi
guration of the
road, traffic density and safety remain
important factors in the choice of the best
g e a r.
The gear efficiency indicator system does not
replace the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver. With an automatic gearbox, the system is only active in manual mode.
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. Example:
This function cannot be deactivated.
-
Y
ou are in third gear.
-
Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.
-
T
he system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear.

Operating fault
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 selector
lever at 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.
In the event of a fault with the system,
this indicator lamp flashes for a few
moments then comes on continuously,
accompanied by a message.
Opening the bonnet
Before doing anything under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid the risk of injury related
to an automatic change to START
mode.
Driving on flooded roads
Before driving through a flooded road,
it is strongly recommended that you
deactivate the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving
advice
, particularly on flooded roads,
refer to the corresponding section. The Stop & Start system requires a
battery of advanced technology and
special characteristics.
All work on this type of battery must
only be done by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
For more information on the 12 V
battery
, refer to the corresponding
section.

Speed limit recognition
This system allows the speed limit detected by
the camera to be displayed in the instrument
panel.
Specific speed limits, such as those for heavy
goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the instrument
panel is updated as you pass a speed limit sign
intended for cars (light vehicles).The units for the speed limits (mph or
km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
It should be taken into account so that
you observe the speed limit.
For the system to operate correctly
when you change country, the units for
speed in the instrument panel must be
those for the country you are driving in. The automatic reading of road signs is a
driving assistance system and does not
always display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the
road always take priority over the
display by the system.
The system cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must observe the driving
regulations and must adapt the speed
of the vehicle to suit the weather and
traffic.
It is possible for the system to not
display the speed limit if it does not
detect a speed limit sign within a preset
period.
The system is designed to detect signs
that conform to the Vienna Convention
on road signs.
To maintain correct operation of the
system: regularly clean the area in front
of the camera.Principles
Using a camera at the top of the windscreen,
this system detects and reads speed limit and
end of speed limit signs.
The system also takes account of information
on speed limits from the navigation system
mapping.

Memorising the speed setting
This memorisation is in addition to the display
of Speed limit recognition .
The driver can choose to adapt the speed
setting to the speed limit suggested, by
pressing the memorisation button at the speed
limiter controls, with the standard cruise
control, the dynamic cruise control or the
dynamic cruise control with Stop function.
This speed setting then replaces the previous
speed setting for the speed limiter and/or cruise
control. For more information on the Speed

Speed limiter - "LIMIT"
System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the driver.
The speed limiter cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need to observe speed limits, nor can it
replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.

additional pressure on the accelerator pedal
has no effect.

On sharp acceleration, as when
descending a steep hill, the speed
limiter will not be able to prevent
the vehicle from exceeding the
programmed speed.
The limiter is temporarily deactivated
and the displayed programmed speed
flashes.
An audible signal accompanies the
flashing of the programmed speed
when exceeding the speed is not due to
an action by the driver.
The use of mats not approved by
CITROËN may inter fere with the
operation of the speed limiter.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is secured
c o r r e c t l y,
-
d
o not fit one mat on top of another.
Flashing of the dashes indicates a fault with the
speed limiter.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
