Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the
heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as
close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce 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 and
refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when
cold, 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 (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter...) and obser ve the
schedule of operations recommended by the
manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3 rd
cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.
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 settle
down 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 warm
up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting
your multimedia devices (film, music, video
game...), you will contribute towards limiting
the consumption of electrical energy, and so
of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before
leaving the vehicle.

is made.
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 50 litres (petrol) or
46 litres (Diesel); depending on version: approximately
30 litres (petrol or Diesel).
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel as
this could damage the emission control and injection
systems.

A few definitions…
Range
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
which can still be travelled with the fuel
remaining in the tank in relation to the average
fuel consumption over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consumption
during the last few seconds.
Average fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consumption since the
last trip computer zero reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed calculated
since the last trip computer zero reset
(ignition on).
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
travelled since the last trip computer zero reset.
Stop & Start time
counter
(minutes /sec onds or hour s /minutes)
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time
counter calculates the time spent in STOP
mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the key.
This value may vary following a change
in the style of driving or the relief,
resulting in a significant change in the
current fuel consumption.
If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least
5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
Distance remaining to
destination
(miles or km)
This is the distance remaining to be travelled
to the final destination. It can be entered by
the user.
If the distance is not entered, dashes are
displayed in place of the digits.
