GEAR EFFICIENCY INDICATOR *
System which reduces fuel consumption
by advising the driver to change up on
vehicles fi tted with a manual gearbox.
*
According to engine.
Operation
The system intervenes only when driving
economically.
Depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system may
advise you to skip one or more gears. You
can follow this instruction without engag-
ing the intermediate gears.
The gear engagement recommendations
must not be considered compulsory. In
fact, the confi guration of the road, the
amount of traffi c and safety remain de-
termining factors when choosing the best
gear. Therefore, the driver remains re-
sponsible for deciding whether or not to
follow the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
- You press the accelerator pedal
moderately.
Example:
- You are in third gear.
- The system may suggest that you
engage a higher gear, if appropriate.
The information appears in the instru-
ment panel screen in the form of an
arrow accompanied by the suggested
gear.
In the case of driving which
makes particular demands on
the performance of the engine
(fi rm pressure on the accelerator
pedal, for example, when over-
taking...), the system will not rec-
ommend a gear change.
The system never suggests:
- engaging fi rst gear,
- engaging reverse gear,
- engaging a lower gear.

TECHNICAL DATA

IDENTIFICATION MARKINGS
Various visible markings for the identifi -
cation of your vehicle.
A. Vehicle identifi cation number
(VIN) under the bonnet.
This number is engraved on the body-
work near the engine mounting.
B. Vehicle identifi cation number on
the dashboard.
This number is indicated on a self-
adhesive label which is visible through
the windscreen.
D. Tyre/paint label.
This label is affi xed to the driver's front
pillar.
The tyre pressures must be
checked when the tyres are cold,
at least once a month.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.
C. Manufacturer's label.
The VIN is indicated on a self-destroying
label affi xed to the driver's centre pillar. It bears the following information:
- the tyre pressures, for unladen and
laden conditions,
- the wheel rim and tyre sizes,
- the brands of tyre recommended by
the manufacturer,
- the spare tyre infl ation pressure,
- the paint colour code.
Wheels which are fi tted with
225/40 R18 tyres cannot be fi t-
ted with snow chains. For more
information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
