Gearbox and steering wheel 
     Stopping - Starting on a gradient  
 This is an electronic gearbox system without 
a clutch pedal. 
To immobilise the vehicle on a gradient, 
you must use the parking brake and not 
the accelerator.  
 When starting on a gradient, accelerate 
gradually while releasing the parking brake.  
     Changing to sequential mode 
 Once you have started the engine, you 
can go into sequential mode by selecting 
position M.
  Changing to automatic mode 
 When in sequential mode, you can return to 
automatic mode by selecting position A.
   Stopping the vehicle  
 Before switching off the engine, you can: 
   -  select position N to engage neutral.
-  leave a gear engaged, such as first or 
reverse gear.     
 In either case, you must engage the parking 
brake to immobilise the vehicle.  
     Reinitialising  
 Following a battery disconnection, you must 
reinitialise the gearbox: 
   -  switch on the ignition, "AUTO" appears 
on the instrument panel display,
-  press on the brake pedal,
-  wait for about 30 seconds until "N" or 
a gear appears on the instrument panel 
display,
-  release the brake pedal.     
 The gearbox is now operational again.  
  Operating anomaly 
"AUTO" is displayed and the 
gear selected appears on the 
instrument panel display.
The gearbox operates in automatic mode, 
without the need for driver intervention.
It always selects the gear best suited to the 
following parameters:   
   -  driving style,
-  road profile,
-  vehicle load.     
 To maximise driving comfort and obtain the 
most suitable gear, avoid making rough 
movements on the accelerator pedal.
If you press the accelerator beyond the point 
of resistance, the gearbox selects the next 
gear down to allow for faster acceleration.          
"AUTO" disappears and 
the gears selected appear 
successively on the instrument 
panel display.
Gear change requests are only possible if 
the engine speed allows them.
Gently lift your foot from the accelerator 
pedal to select the gear.
When driving at low speed (e.g. approaching 
a stop sign or at traffic lights), the gearbox 
automatically changes down to first gear.    
  With the ignition switched on, the  fl   a s h i n g   o f  "AUTO" and the lighting of this warning lamp, accompanied by a sound signal and a message on the instrument panel display, indicate a gearbox malfunction.Have the system checked by your CITROËN dealer.You must always press the brake pedal 
down when starting the engine. 
When the vehicle is moving, never select 
neutral N.
Only select reverse gear R with the vehicle 
stationary and your foot on the brake pedal.
In all cases, you must engage the parking 
brake to immobilise the vehicle.
When on a steep gradient, you are advised 
to use sequential mode.
