INFORMATION ON THE
INSTRUMENT PANEL DISPLAY
Data displays
With the ignition on, press the
INFO
button, located on the fascia to the
right of the instrument panel, to display
the various information displays in
succession:
- the distance recorder A,
- the distance recorder B,
- the service indicator,

- the range,
- the trip computer,
- the setting menu. This displays the dis-
tance and the number
of months remaining be-
fore the next service to

ance with the manufac-
turer’s servicing sched-
ule (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 run-
ning, this indicates the
number of miles (kilome-
tres) which can still be
travelled with the fuel re-
maining in the tank in re-
lation to the average con-
sumption over the last
few miles (kilometres)
travelled (refer to the “Range” section).
Range
This indicates the aver-
age consumption, the
average speed and the
current consumption (re-
fer 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 total distance is
displayed in zone 1 of
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.
The symbol fl ashes when your engine
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. This fi gure may increase following 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.
Therefore, you must fi ll the tank
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
approximate indication.

System which provides current infor-
mation about the route travelled.
TRIP COMPUTER Average consumption (l/100km or km/l or
mpg)
This is the average
quantity of fuel consumed
since the last zero reset.
This fi gure may increase following a
change in the style of driving or the
relief resulting in a reduction in the
current consumption.
Average speed
(km/h or mph)
This is the average
speed calculated since
the last zero reset.
Resetting the information to zero
Automatic
If the ignition remains in the “ACC”
(Accessories) position for at least
4 hours, the average consumption value
is reset to zero automatically.
If dashes “---” are displayed for long
periods in place of the digits while
driving, contact a CITRÖEN dealer. Current consumption (l/100km or km/l or
mpg)
This is the average
quantity of fuel con-
sumed during the last
few seconds of driving.
