petrol engines

The petrol engines are perfectly compatible
with E10 or E24 type petrol biofuels (containing10 % or 24 % ethanol), conforming to Europeanstandards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol)
are reser ved exclusively for vehicles marketed
for the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex
vehicles). The quality of the ethanol mustcomply with European standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed
to run on fuels containing up to 100 % ethanol(E10 0 type).
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines

The Diesel engines are per fectly compatible
with biofuels which conform to current andfuture European standards (Diesel fuel whichcomplies with standard EN 590 mixed with a
biofuel which complies with standard EN 14214)
available at the pumps (containing up to 7 %Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in cer tain Diesel engines; however, this use is subject to strict
application of the special ser vicing conditions. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system). 1.6 litre petrol en
gines, even though they have
been designed to operate on 95 RON petrol,can accept 90 RON petrol without engine adjustments, but with a slight deterioration in performance.
2.0 litre petrol engines can accept 90 RON or higher petrol.

Technical data
Caution, towing with a lightly loaded towing vehicle can have an adverse affect on its roadholding.
The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for each additional 1 000 metres of altitude.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (10 0 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the performance of the vehicle to protect the engine; if the ambient temperature is above 37 °C, limit the towed load.

03 NAVIGATION - GUIDANCE
The satellite navigation system guides the driver to the destination
that he has set in accordance with a chosen route.
Initiall
y, it searches for the destination required by the user, thenit calculates the route and fi nally it provides the visual and vocal guidance instructions.

A point of interest (POI) is represented by an icon on
the map, it represents an airport, a station, a town
hall, ... WHAT IS A POINT OF INTEREST
(POI)?
Up to 40 different icons ma
y be displayed (refer to the
section "Points of interest icon").
The
y are classifi ed in 5 groups and identifi ed by onecolour for each group:
-
Shops, fi nance and businesses (Green),
- Vehicles and travel
(Dark blue),
- Restaurants
(Orange),
- Public places and emer
gency services (Brown),
- Entertainment and attractions
(Blue).

GPS
(Global Positioning System) consists of severalsatellites arranged around the earth. They continuouslytransmit digital signals which travel at the speed of
light, on 2 different frequencies.

At any given time, the system receives its position
in relation to the satellites detected and the time of
transmission of the signal.
This enables the telematic unit to calculate its position
and therefore that of the vehicle.

A repositioning process using the map database storedon the hard disk allows the vehicle to be positionedon the road network, so improving the accuracy of the
vehicle location function.


















GPS SYSTEM
WHAT IS THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND GPS?
The system's measurements may be inaccurate if the vehicle is:
- in a tunnel or under
ground car park,
- underneath a two-level motorwa
y,
-
in an area with several very high buildings,
- surroun
ded by closely planted trees.
Depending on the vehicle's situation and the reception o
f the GPSinformation, the displayed information may disappear from the
screen temporarily.

WHAT PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE OBSERVED IN
ORDER TO MAKE BEST USE OF THE SYSTEM?

Do not place anything on or near the
GPS aerial.
Do not use an
y digital communication equipment (personalcomputers, etc.) near the GPS aerial.
Do not affi x an
y refl ective fi lms or fi lms containing carbon to the
windows.

WHAT IS RDS?
The Radio Data
System (RDS) function on the FM waveband permits: - automatic retuning to alternative frequencies carrying the samestation while travelling through different regions (if the transmittersgqyggqyg
of this station cover the area through which you are travelling),gg g(gg g(
- temporary tuning to traffi c information announcements,
- display of the name of the station, etc...
Most FM stations use RDS.
These stations transmit non-audible data in addition to their programmes. The data transmitted in this way allows you access to variousfunctions, mainly displaying of the name of the station, temporary yyyy
tuning to traffi c information announcements or automatic retuning to y pyg p yy pyg p
alternative frequencies.gg
RDS allows you to continue listening to the same station automatically by means of alternative frequencies. However, alternative frequencies yg yyg
may not be provided throughout the country. Radio stations do not yq qqq
cover the whole country, which explains the loss of reception of the yp g ypg y
station during a journey. y

REGIONAL MODE
Some stations are organised in a network.
In different regions, they broadcast different or shared programmesdepending on the time of day. gyg,y

You can follow:


- a regional station only,

- the entire network, with the possibility that you will be listeningto a different programme.

AUDIO / VIDEO
RDS ALTERNATIVE FREQUENCIES
Your radio automatically checks and selects the best frequency for the radio station to which it is tuned (if the station broadcasts on yqyyq
several transmitters or frequencies). The frequency of a radio station covers approximately 30 miles(50 km). The change from one frequency to another explains theq y pp yq y pp y
loss of reception during a journey. () g q() g
If the station to which you are listening does not have several frequencies in the region in which you are currently located, you canygyg
deactivate automatic alternative frequencies. qgyqgy
