A few definitions… Range
(km or miles)
This fi gure may increase follow-
ing a change in the style of driving
or terrain, resulting in a signifi cant
change in the current consump-
tion.
When the range falls below 20 miles
(30 km), dashes are displayed. After
fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel,
the range is recalculated and is dis-
played when it exceeds 60 miles
(100 km).
If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a CITROËN dealer.
This indicates the distance which
can still be travelled with the fuel
remaining in the tank based on the
average consumption over the last
few miles (kilometres) travelled.
Current consumption
(l/100 km or km/l or mpg)
Average consumption
(l/100 km or km/l or mpg)
This is the average fuel
consumption since the
last trip computer zero
reset.
Distance travelled
(km or miles)
This indicates the distance travelled
since the last trip computer zero re-
set. Average speed
(km/h or mph)
This is the average speed calculat-
ed since the last trip computer zero
reset (ignition on).
Distance remaining
to destination
(km or miles)
This is the distance remaining to be
travelled to the fi nal destination. It
is either calculated instantly by the
navigation system, if guidance is ac-
tivated, or entered by the user.
If the distance is not entered, dashes
are displayed in place of the digits.
This function is only displayed
above 20 mph (30 km/h).
This is the average quantity of fuel
consumed during the last few sec-
onds.

RECOMMENDED SETTINGS FOR THE VENTILATION, HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING Air inlet

screen, is clean and free of dead
leaves, snow, etc.

Air conditioning
To ensure that your system operates
correctly, it is recommended to have
it checked regularly.
Water arising from condensation
in the air conditioning drains away
through a hole provided for this pur-
pose. A pool of water may thus form
under the vehicle when stationary.
To keep the air conditioning com-
pressor well sealed, it is essential to
operate the air conditioning at least
once in every month.
Regardless of the season, the air
conditioning is useful, since it re-
moves humidity and condensation.
To be effective, the air conditioning
should only be used with the win-
dows closed.
If after a lengthy stop in bright sun-
light the interior temperature is ex-
cessive, ventilate the passenger
compartment by opening the win-
dows for a few moments, then close
them again.
The air conditioning operates by
using power from the engine. This
results in a slight increase in fuel
consumption.
Dust filter/Odour filter (active
carbon)
There is a fi lter for excluding odours
and dust.
This fi lter has to be changed in ac-
cordance with the vehicle mainte-
nance schedule (see "Maintenance
Guide").
Air circulation
Maximum comfort is obtained when
there is a good distribution of air in
the passenger compartment, both in
the front and in the rear.
For optimum operating effi ciency,
take care not to obstruct the air out-
lets under the front seats.
Air vents
The face-level air vents have grilles
and thumbwheels to adjust the air
fl ow and direction (up-down, right-left).
The automatic regulation of the air
conditioning, inside the cabin, uses
the sunlight sensor located on the
dashboard behind the instrument
panel.
Be careful not to obstruct it.

The air blower operates only when
the engine is running. For optimum
comfort in the passenger compart-
ment, the control should not remain
in position
0 (position 1 minimum ).

The heating/ventilation and manual
air conditioning systems can only
function with the engine running. This position is for exclud-
ing disagreeable odours
or emissions coming from
outside the cabin. With a
press on control 2 , the entry of air
from outside is closed off, the lamp
comes on.
This should be cancelled as soon as
possible to prevent misting and to
allow fresh air into the cabin.
To deactivate air recirculation, press
again on control 2 , the warning lamp
goes out. 5 - Rear screen demisting
Can only be operated with the en-
gine running.
One press on control 5 acti-
vates the electric demisting
of the rear screen and, ac-
cording to version, the exte-
rior rear view mirrors. The warning
lamp comes on.
It switches off automatically to avoid
excessive power consumption.
One press stops the demisting.
A further press starts it again.
If the engine is stopped before the
end of demisting, the operation will
resume the next time the engine is
started.
6 - Air conditioning
The air conditioning will only operate
when the engine is running.
Press on control 6 The warn-
ing lamp comes on.
For air conditioning, the air
blower control 3 must not be
on position "0" .
Air conditioning is obtained by mix-
ing the warm air with refrigerated air.
The temperature control 4 adjusts
the air conditioning provided the
control 6 is operational.
