Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof
rack, trailer...).
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, cabin filter...)
and observe the schedule of operations in
the manufacturer's service schedule. With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR
has a fault your vehicle becomes polluting;
go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible to bring the
levels of nitrous oxide emissions back into
line with the regulations.
When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3
rd 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.

deactivation
At any time, press the "A - OFF" switch to
deactivate the system.
Illumination of the switch indicator lamp,

accompanied by a message in the
instrument panel screen, confirms that the
instruction has been registered.
If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.
It is necessary to deactivate the Stop
&
Start system if you want to allow
continuous operation of the air conditioning.
The switch indicator lamp stays on.
reactivation
Press the "A - OFF" switch again.
The system is active again; the switch
indicator lamp going off and a message
in the instrument panel screen confirm
reactivation.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the
system, the Stop & Start system
is deactivated and this warning
lamp comes on, accompanied by
a message in the instrument panel
screen.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of an operating fault with STOP
mode, it is possible to restart the engine by
depressing the clutch pedal fully and putting
the gear lever into neutral.
Maintenance
Before working under the bonnet, you
must switch off the ignition with the
key to avoid any risk of injury resulting from
automatic operation of START mode.
This system requires a specific battery
with a special specification and technology
(reference numbers available from a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by
CITROËN
introduces the risk of malfunction
of the system.
The Stop & Start system makes use
of advanced technology. Specialist
knowledge is needed for any work on the
system, which can only be assured by
CITROËN dealers. Refer to the "Quick help - Flat battery"
section.

Starting and switching off

74
Have the additional heating checked at
least once a year at the beginning of
winter. Maintenance and repairs should only
be carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Use only genuine replacement parts.
Switching off the heating
In the case of deferred operation, the
heating stops at the end of the programmed
period.
Good practice
To avoid any risk of poisoning or
asphyxiation, the additional heating must
not be used, even for short periods, in
an enclosed space such as a garage or
workshop which is not fitted with an exhaust
gas extraction system.
The additional heating switches off when the
battery voltage is low, so as to allow engine
starting.
The additional heating is supplied by the
vehicle's fuel tank. Ensure that the low fuel
warning lamp is not on.
Always switch off the additional heating
when filling with fuel to avoid any risk of fire
or explosion. The temperature near the heater must not
exceed 120
°C. A temperature higher than
this (for example in the case of painting in
an oven) could damage the components of
the electronic circuits.
The additional heating is fitted with
a temperature limiter which cuts off
the combustion in the event of engine
overheating due to a lack of coolant. Check
the level and if necessary top-up following
the advice given in the "Checks - Levels"
section. Then press the programme
selection button before switching the heating
on again.
Setting the operating period
The period of operation can be set to
between 10 and 60 minutes.
Press and hold the "set" button.
At the same time press the "<"
or ">" button.
The time and the time setting
indicator come on.
Press and hold the "set" button again.
At the same time press the "<" or ">" button
again.
The programmed operating period is
displayed and the heating or ventilation
cycle indicator flashes.
Adjust the period by pressing the "<" or ">"
button.
The setting is confirmed by the period
disappearing from the screen or by pressing
the "set" button again In the case of immediate
operation, press this button
again
to switch off manually.
The heating cycle indicator and
the screen go off.
Ventilation

120
In order to be effective, a seat belt:
-
must restrain one person only
,
-

must not be twisted, check by pulling in

front of you with an even movement,
-

must be tightened as close to the body

as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should be
positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low as
possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they
will not fulfil their role completely. If the
seats are fitted with armrests, the lap part of
the seat belt should always pass under the
armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap firmly.r ecommendations for children
Use an appropriate child seat if the
passenger is under 10 years or less than
one and a half metres tall.
Never carry a child on your knees, even with
the seat belt fastened.
For more information on child seats,
refer to the "Safety - Children on board"
section. In accordance with current safety
regulations, your CITROËN dealer can
guarantee all work or any checks, from
testing to maintenance, on your seat belt
equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly (even
after a minor impact) by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop: they must not show
any signs of wear, cutting or fraying and they
must not be converted or modified.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by CITROËN dealers.
