Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; placethe heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats. Limit the loads carried in the vehicle andreduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference. Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres andrefit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, whencold, referring to the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in par ticular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engineoil, oil filter, air filter...) and obser ve theschedule of operations recommended bythe manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3 rdcut-off of the nozzle to avoid any overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settledown to a consistent average.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps when the level of light does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,particularly in winter; your vehicle will warmup much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, videogame...), you will contribute towards limitingthe consumption of electrical energy, and soof fuel. Disconnect your por table devices beforeleaving the vehicle.

Wheels which are fitted with 225/40 R18tyres cannot be fitted with snow chains.For more information, contact a CITROËNdealer or a qualified workshop.
Low tyre pressures increase fuelconsumption.
The tyre pressures must be checked when the tyres are cold, at least oncea month. C. Manufacturer's label
.The VIN is indicated on a self-destroying labelaffixed to the driver's centre pillar. It bears the
following information:
- the tyre pressures, for unladen and ladenconditions,
