READY TO SET OFF
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.
“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.
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
With the ignition switched on, the fl ashing of “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.
“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.

A. Positive metal point on your vehicle

B. Slave battery

C. Earth on your vehicle
CHARGING THE BATTERY USING A CHARGER
- disconnect the battery,
- follow the instructions for use given by
the battery charger manufacturer,
- reconnect starting with the negative (-) terminal,
- check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are covered with
sulphate (white or greenish deposit),
disconnect them and clean them. The charging operation must be carried
out in a ventilated area away from
naked flames or any possible sources of
sparks to eliminate the risk of explosion and
fire.
Do not attempt to charge a frozen battery: it
must first be thawed to eliminate the risks of
explosion. If the battery has frozen, before
charging it have it checked by a specialist
who will check that the internal components
have not been damaged and that the
container is not cracked, which could mean
that there is a risk of a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.
STARTING FROM ANOTHER BATTERY
- connect the red cable to the metal point
A then to the positive (+) terminal of the
slave battery B ,
- connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative (-) terminal of the
slave battery B ,
- connect the other end of the green or black cable to the earth point C on your
vehicle,
- operate the starter, let the engine run,
- wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables.
