Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the
bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof\
bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in
the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-
before a long journey
,
-
at each change of season,
-
after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter
, air filter,
passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to
avoid any overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.

53Good practice
To change gear smoothly, always press the
clutch pedal fully down.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught under
the pedal:
-
ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
-
never fit one mat on top of another
.
Avoid leaving your hand on the gear knob as
the force exerted, even if slight, may cause
wear of the internal components of the
gearbox over time.
MANUAL GEARBOX
Reverse
gear
Never engage reverse gear until the vehicle
is completely stationary.
The lever should be moved slowly to reduce
the noise on engaging reverse gear.
If your vehicle is fitted with parking
sensors, the system comes into
operation when reverse gear is engaged,
confirmed by an audible signal.
Refer to the "Technology on board -
Parking sensors" section.
STEERING WHEEL ADJUSTMENT
When the vehicle is stationary, release the
steering wheel adjustment by pushing the
lever down.
Adjust the steering wheel for height and
reach, then lock by pulling the lever up fully. When traversing a flooded road or a
ford, drive at walking pace.

ELECTRONIC GEARBOX
The five-speed electronic gearbox offers a
choice between the comfort of automated
operation or the pleasure of manual gear
changing.
This gearbox provides two driving modes:
-
an automated mode for automatic control
of the gears by the gearbox and therefore
without any action on the part of the
driver,
-
a sequential mode for manual changing
of the gears by the driver using the gear
lever.
It consists of:
1.
a gear lever
1 on the centre console
for selecting the driving mode, reverse
gear and neutral or for changing gear in
sequential mode,
2.
a button
2 to activate or deactivate the
economy programme.
Gear lever gate
All movements of the gear lever are given
from the middle position.
N : neutral.
With your foot on the brake, select this
position to start, by moving the gear lever to
the right and then forwards.
R : reverse gear.
With the vehicle stationary, keep your foot
on the brake pedal and move the gear lever
to the right and then backwards.

Moving off
You must press the brake pedal.
Start the engine; the gearbox changes into
neutral automatically.
The gear lever stays in the position selected
before switching off the ignition.
"N" appears in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by an audible signal when
you release the brake pedal, to indicate that
there is a difference between the position of
the gear lever and the gear selected in the
gearbox.
Select first gear (move the lever towards +)
or reverse (position R ).
"1" or "R" appears in the instrument panel
screen.
Release the parking brake.
Remove your foot from the brake pedal and
then accelerate away. The
a
UT
o
or sequential mode used
before switching off the ignition remains
in memory when the vehicle is restarted.Stopping - Starting on a slope
This gearbox is electronically controlled and
does not have a clutch pedal.
Do not use the accelerator pedal to hold
the vehicle on a slope, apply the parking
brake instead; failure to follow this
procedure can overheat the clutch and
damage the gearbox.
When moving off on a slope, accelerate
gradually while releasing the parking brake.
It is also possible to move of
f
in 2
nd gear on slippery surfaces
(2nd press on +).
Automated mode
once you have moved off, you can switch to
automated mode by selecting position A/M.
"AUTO" and the gear engaged
appear in the instrument panel
screen.
The gearbox then operates in auto-active
mode, without any action on the part of the
driver.
It continuously selects the most appropriate
gear depending on the:
-
vehicle speed,
-
engine speed,
-
accelerator pedal position.
T
o optimise driving comfort and obtain the
most suitable gear, avoid sharp variations in
the pressure on the accelerator pedal.
If you fully depress the accelerator pedal,
the gearbox changes down for sharper
acceleration.
By rapidly pushing the accelerator fully
down, the vehicle moves off quickly.

56Stopping the vehicle
To switch off the engine, with your foot on
the brake pedal, you should:
-
select first gear or reverse.
-
apply the parking brake to immobilise the
vehicle.
-
switch of
f the ignition.
Temporarily changing gear in AUTO mode
You can also request a gear change using
the gear lever.
This action does not deactivate the
automated mode, but allows temporary
use of the sequential mode functions (for
example: for overtaking another vehicle...).
"AUTO" remains displayed in the instrument
panel screen.
"ECO" economy programme
This programme works with the automated
mode to reduce fuel consumption.
Press button E
to activate the programme.
Sequential mode
After using the automated mode, you can
return to the sequential mode by selecting
position A /M again.
"E" appears in the instrument
panel screen, next to "AUTO"
and the gear selected by the
gearbox.
The gearbox then selects the best gear for
the speed of the vehicle, the engine speed
and the accelerator pedal position to reduce
fuel consumption. "AUTO" disappears and the
gears engaged appear in
succession in the instrument
panel screen.
t is not necessary to take your foot off the
accelerator pedal to change the gear.
The gear change requests are only carried
out if the engine speed permits it. The
system gives an audible signal if a gear
change is not possible.
At low speeds, when approaching a stop
or traffic lights for example, the gearbox
changes down to first gear automatically.
Release the brake pedal after the display
of the gear engaged has disappeared
from the instrument panel screen.
n
ever leave the vehicle with the
gearbox in neutral (position N ). In this
case, there is an audible signal on switching
off the ignition (ignition key in the STOP
position).

gearbox by the driver.
With the ignition on, the flashing this warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and
a message in the instrument panel screen,
indicates a fault with the gearbox.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the problem persist, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
n
ever select neutral N while the vehicle
is moving.
Only engage reverse gear R with the vehicle
immobilised and the brake pedal pressed.
You risk damaging the gearbox if you
press the accelerator and brake pedals
simultaneously.
Back-up mode - Slow move off
This procedure should be applied if pressing
the brake pedal is not recognised by the
system, or if the gearbox has fault on
starting the engine.
Press the brake pedal firmly.
Turn the ignition key to the AV V position for
at least seven seconds.
The engine starts.
The system is in back-up mode; the gearbox
will not go beyond the 3
rd gear engaged and
automated mode is not available.
If the engine does not start, have the
system checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Operating faultIn the event of a prolonged stop with the
engine running, it is recommended that
the gearbox be put into neutral (position N ).
With the vehicle stationary, the engine
running and first, second or reverse
gear engaged, the gearbox changes to
neutral automatically, accompanied
by
an audible signal, in the following
circumstances:
-
no action on the accelerator or brake
pedals for at least 3 minutes,
-
brake pedal applied for more than
10 minutes,
-
driver's door opened and no action on the
accelerator or brake pedals for at least
1.5 seconds,
-
a gearbox fault. When towing your vehicle, ensure that
the gearbox is in neutral (position N ).
When traversing a flooded road or a
ford, drive at walking pace.

Operation
The system intervenes only when driving
economically.
The gear change recommendations must
not be considered compulsory, as the
configuration of the road, the volume 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 system cannot be deactivated.Example:
System which reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most suitable gear.
Display in the level 2 instrument panelIn the case of driving which
makes particular demands on the
performance of the engine (firm pressure
on the accelerator pedal, for example,
when overtaking...), the system will not
recommend a gear change.
The system will never suggest:
-
engaging first gear
,
-
engaging reverse.
-
Y
ou are in third gear.
-
Y
ou press the accelerator pedal
moderately.
-
The
system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear, if appropriate. On vehicle fitted with a manual gearbox,
the arrow may be accompanied by the gear
recommended.
With an electronic gearbox, the system is
only active in manual mode. The information appears in the form of the
word
SHIFT in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by an up arrow to changing up.

this is indicated by this warning
lamp which comes on on the
instrument panel.
When parking on a slope, direct your wheels towards
the pavement and pull the parking brake lever up.
There is no advantage in engaging a gear after
parking the vehicle, particularly if the vehicle is
loaded.
Pull on the parking brake lever, only with
the vehicle stationary.
In the exceptional case of use of the parking
brake when the vehicle is moving, apply the
brake by pulling gently to avoid locking the
rear wheels (risk of skidding).
HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
