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.
Stay in the "Eco" zone
indicated 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 to
recover energy and increase the range of your
vehicle.
Use the "Charge" zone
of the energy
consumption/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 greatly
reduces 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/defrosting
and 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 and
follow the schedule for routine ser vicing
recommended by CITROËN.

Indicator and warning lamps
Visual indicators informing the driver that a
system is in operation, is deactivated or has a
fault.
When the ignition is switched on
Cer tain warning lamps come on for a few
seconds when the vehicle's ignition
is switched on.
These same warning lamps go off after a few
seconds.
If you notice one of these warning lamps
remaining on, refer to the information on the
warning lamp in question.
Associated warnings
The illumination of cer tain warning lamps may
be accompanied by an audible signal.
The warning lamps may come on continuously
(fixed) or flash.
Cer tain warning lamps may come on in
one of two modes. Only by relating the
type of lighting to the operating status
of the vehicle can it be ascer tained
whether the situation is normal or
whether a fault has occurred.

Energy consumption/generation indicator
Energy consumption
On switching on the ignition, your vehicle
neither consumes nor generates energy in its
electric 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
"Charge" zone
The needle moves to the right in propor tion 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 range.
The needle moves to the left in propor tion to
the level of charge sent to the main battery,
during period of deceleration and braking.
