INFORMATION ON THE
INSTRUMENT PANEL DISPLAY
Data displays
With the ignition on, press the
INFO
button, located on the fascia to the
left of the instrument panel, to display
the various information displays in
succession:
- the distance recorder A,
- the distance recorder B,
- the service indicator,
- the coolant temperature,
- the range,
- the trip computer,
- the setting menu. This displays the
distance and the number
of months remaining
b e f o r e t h e n e x t s e r v i c e
to be carried out in
accordance with the
manufacturer’s servicing
schedule (refer to the
“Service indicator” section).
Service indicator
When the engine is
running, this indicates
the temperature of the
coolant (refer to the
“Coolant temperature
indicator” section).
Coolant temperature When the engine is
running, this indicates
the number of miles
(kilometres) which can
still be travelled with
the fuel remaining in the
tank in relation to the
average consumption
over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled (refer to the
“Range” section).
Range
This indicates the
average consumption,
the average speed and
the current consumption
(refer to the “Trip
computer” section).
Trip computer
When the vehicle is
stationary , this allows
the user to change the
following parameters
(refer to the “Function
parameters” section):
- the display language,
- the temperature dis-
play unit,
- the fuel consumption unit,
- the option to reinitialise the aver- age consumption and the average
speed,
- the break (rest) reminder display in- terval.

the display and the trip
distance in zone 2 .
DISTANCE RECORDERS (A / B)
System for measuring the total distance
travelled by the vehicle during its
service life and the distance travelled in
a day or other period until it is reset to
zero by the driver.
Zero reset
With the ignition on, press the INFO
button for more than 2 seconds until
zeros appear. When the engine is
running, this indicates
the temperature of the
coolant.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
If the bar is close to
the
critical position
located on the right, the
temperature is too high.
T h e s y m b o l fl a s h e s w h e n y o u r e n g i n e
is overheating.
It is imperative that you stop your
vehicle safely.
Wait a few minutes before switching
off the engine.
Wait for the engine to cool
before topping up the level. The
cooling system is pressurised.
When the engine is
running , this indicates
the distance which can
still be travelled with the
fuel remaining in the tank
in relation to the average
consumption over the
last few miles/kilometres
travelled.
RANGE
When the range is less than 30 miles
(50 km) , dashes are displayed.
Fill the fuel tank as soon as possible.
The display of the range is updated.
As the cooling system is pressurised, to
avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the
cap by two turns to allow the pressure
to drop.
When the pressure has dropped,
remove the cap and top up the level, if
necessary.
Consult a CITROËN dealer. T h i s fi g u r e m a y i n c r e a s e f o l l o w i n g a
change in the style of driving or the
relief, resulting in a reduction in the
current consumption.
If you only add a few litres, the
value displayed will be incorrect.

whenever possible.
When you disconnect
the battery, the previous
consumption data is lost and
the value displayed will be different
from that displayed before the battery
was disconnected. The distance
displayed must be considered an

s e a t s a n d t h e a i r e x t r a c t o r l o c a t e d b e -
h i n d t h e fl a p s i n t h e b o o t . The water formed by the air conditioning
condensation is discharged via an open-
ing provided for this purpose. Therefore,
a puddle of water may form underneath
the vehicle when stationary.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and have it checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
THE AIR CONDITIONING
Do not cover the temperature and hu-
midity sensor
2 and the sunshine sen-
sor
7 .
They are required for regulation of the
air conditioning.
Advice on operation
In hot weather, in order to obtain in-
tense ventilation, it is advisable to
use vents 1 and
4 only.
If, when the vehicle has been parked
in the sun for a long time, the interior
temperature remains very high, do
not hesitate to ventilate the passen-
ger compartment for a few minutes. Switch off the air conditioning when
the climatic conditions permit.
Use of the automatic regulation of the
air conditioning is recommended. It per-
mits automatic and optimised control of
a l l o f t h e f o l l o w i n g f u n c t i o n s : a i r fl o w ,
passenger compartment temperature
and air distribution, by means of vari-
o u s s e n s o r s ( e x t e r i o r t e m p e r a t u r e , i n -
terior temperature, sunshine), so pre-
venting the need for you to change your
reference settings other than the value
displayed.
In certain cases of particularly arduous
u s e ( t o w i n g t h e m a x i m u m l o a d o n a
steep gradient in hot weather), cutting
off the air conditioning permits recovery
of the engine power and therefore im-
provement of the towing capacity.

If you drive in a dusty environment, re-
place it twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and is not harmful to
the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in perfect working order.

ventilation will reach its optimum lev-
el gradually.
On entering the vehicle, the interior
temperature may be much colder (or
