Four successive aler ts indicate that the energy
available in the main battery is dropping to a
low level:


- 2 bars of the energy gauge in the
instrument panel, on and
flashing:
starting to use the reser ve.

- The last bar in the energy gauge flashing.

- The last bar disappears:
display of the range disappears; the heating and air conditioning are switched off.

For more economical driving, and increased range
Practical advice for everyday use to optimise the range of your vehicle by conser ving battery power.


Adopt a smooth driving
style

The electrical consumption of your vehicle
depends greatly on your journey, your driving style and your speed.
In all cases, adopt a smooth driving style.
Sta
y in the "Eco" zoneindicated in the energy consumption/generation meter: depress the
accelerator pedal progressively, without sudden movement, and if the conditions permit, drive at
steady and moderate speed.
Recover energy
Anticipating the driving conditions allows you torecover energy and increase the range of your
vehicle.
Use the "Charge" zoneof the energyconsumption/generation meter whenever possible: anticipate the traffic slowing
down and if the the conditions permit, use
deceleration rather than the brakes.


Control the use of your
electrical equipment

The heating and air conditioning systems operate on energy from the main battery.
Excessive use of these systems greatlyreduces the range of your vehicle. Remember
to switch them off once the desired level of comfor t is reached and check their settings every time you set off.
Control also the use of demisting/defrostingand the heated seat.


Limit the causes of excess
consumption
As with any vehicle, limit the loads carried
in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (windows open above 30 mph (50 km/h),
roof bars, roof box, …).


Observe the recommendations
on maintenance

Check the tyre pressures regularly andfollow the schedule for routine ser vicing
recommended by CITROËN.

Main battery state of charge indicator
Display

Four successive aler ts indicate that the energyavailable in the main battery is dropping to alow level:


- 2 bars of the state of charge gauge in the
instrument panel, on and flashing: star tingto use the reserve.

- The last bar in the state of charge gauge flashing.

- The last bar disappears: display of the
range disappears; the heating and air conditioning are switched off.

Low energy alerts
- Display of this warning lamp in
the instrument panel: progressive reduction in the power availablefrom the motor.
The state of char
ge of the main battery is displayed continuously in the instrument panel.

Energy consumption/generation indicator
Energy consumption
On switching on the ignition, your vehicleneither consumes nor generates energy in itselectric traction system: the needle is in the
"neutral" position (provided that the heating and
air conditioning are off).
"Eco" zone

A system that informs the driver of the level of energy consumption or generation of the main battery.


"Neutral" position

"Char
ge" zone
The needle moves to the right in proportion to
the energy consumption by the vehicle. The needle is in this zone when the vehicle is
used so as to moderate electric consumption
and optimise its ran
ge.
The needle moves to the le
ft in propor tion to
the level of charge sent to the main battery,
during period of deceleration and braking.
