PRACTICAL INFORMATION








ENERGY ECONOMY MODE

System which manages the duration
of use of certain functions to con-
serve a suffi cient level of charge in
the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio
and telematics system, windscreen
wipers, dipped headlamps, courtesy
lights, etc. for a maximum combined
duration of thirty minutes.

Switching to economy mode

Once the thirty minutes are over, a
message appears on the multi-function
screen indicating that the vehicle has
switched to economy mode and the
active functions are put on standby.
If the telephone is being used at this
time:


- it will be maintained for 5 minutes
with radio-CD hands-free kit,

-
it will be interrupted after 10 minutes
with the MyWay audio-navigation
system,

- you can complete your call with
the NaviDrive system.
This period may be signifi cantly re-
duced if the battery charge is low.


Exiting economy mode

These functions are reactivated auto-matically next time the vehicle is
driven.


)
In order to resume the use of
these functions immediately, start
the engine and let it run for a few
minutes.
The time available will then be dou-
ble the duration for which the en-
gine was left running. However, this
time will always be between fi ve and
thirty minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the en-
gine from starting (refer to the
corresponding paragraph).

PRACTICAL INFORMATION









Matt paint

If you vehicle is fi nished with a clear
matt lacquer, please observe the fol-
lowing recommendations to avoid
damaging the paintwork by the use
of an inappropriate procedures.
These recommendations are also
valid for alloy road wheels fi nished
with clear matt lacquer.
Never clean the vehicle without water.
Never wash your vehicle in an automatic roller brush car wash.
Never polish the vehicle body, nor the alloy wheels. Doing this will make the
paintwork shiny.
Do not use paint cleaners, abrasive products or paint polishing or preserving
products (such as wax, for example) on the paintwork. These products are
only suitable for bright fi nishes. Application of these products on vehicles
with a matt fi nish will seriously damage the paint surface of the vehicle, giving
rise to irreversible shiny or stained areas.
Never use a high pressure jet wash with a lance fi tted with a brush, this may
scratch the paintwork.
Never select a wash programme that fi nishes with a hot wax cycle.

We recommend the use of a high pressure jet wash, or at least a water hose
with a high output.
We recommend that the vehicle be rinsed using de-ionised water.
Use only a microfi bre cloth to dry the vehicle. It must be clean and used
without heavy pressure.
Lightly wipe off any fuel stains present on the lacquer using a soft cloth, then
leave to dry.
From the range of cleaning and maintenance products recommended and approved
by CITROËN, use only products for removing insects and car shampoo.
Always have paint repairs done by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
