2011 Citroen NEMO Gear lever

Gearbox and steering wheel



Special cases: START invoked
automatically
The START mode is invoked automatically
when:


- the vehicle's is free wheeling on a slope,

- the windscreen wiper is on fast wipe,

- the engine has been stopped for around
3 minutes with Stop & Start,

- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a system.
Good practice
With a manual gearbox in STOP mode, if a
gear is engaged without fully depressing the
clutch pedal, restarting may not take place.
A warning lamp or message is displayed
in the instrument panel asking you to fully
depress the clutch pedal to allow restarting.
With the engine stopped in STOP mode,
if the driver unfasten's their seat belt and
opens a front door, the engine can only
be restarted using the ignition key. This is
indicated by an audible signal, accompanied
by flashing of the service warning lamp and
a message in the instrument panel screen.
If following an automatic restart in START
mode, the driver takes no action on the
the vehicle during the next 3 minutes, the
system stops the engine definitively. The
engine can then only be restarted using the
key.

Going into engine START mode
The "S"
warning lamp goes off and
the engine starts:


- with a manual gearbox
, depress the
clutch pedal,

- with an electronic gearbox :


●
gear lever in position A
or M
, release the
brake pedal,

●
or engage reverse gear.

In this case, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by the "S"
warning
lamp, which flashes for a few
seconds, then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.
In STOP mode, moving the gear lever
on an electronic gearbox starts the
engine, in anticipation of moving off.
If the engine stops automatically when
the vehicle is on a slope, as hill start
is only active with the engine running, it is
necessary to restart the engine by engaging
a forward gear and releasing the brake
pedal.

Deactivation


To give precedence to the control of
the temperature in the passenger
compartment, the Stop & Start system
should be deactivated to allow continuous
operation of the air conditioning.


The system is reactivated automatically
at every new start using the key.
At any time, press the "S - OFF"
switch to
deactivate the system.
This is confirmed by the switch warning lamp
coming on accompanied by a message in
the instrument panel screen.
If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.

Operating fault
Maintenance

In the event of a fault with
the system, the Stop & Start
system is deactivated and the
service warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by a message in the
instrument panel screen.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of an operating fault with STOP
mode, it is possible to restart the engine by
depressing the clutch pedal fully and putting
the gear lever into neutral. Before working under the bonnet, you
must switch off the ignition with the
key to avoid any risk of injury resulting from
automatic operation of START mode.
This system requires a specific battery
with a special specification and technology
(reference numbers available from a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by
CITROËN introduces the risk of malfunction
of the system.
The Stop & Start system makes use
of advanced technology. Specialist
knowledge is needed for any work on the
system, which can only be assured by
CITROËN dealers.


Reactivation

Press the "S - OFF"
switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off and a
message in the instrument panel screen.

Having your vehicle towed


BEING TOWED


The removable towing eye is located in the
tool kit behind the driver's seat (Light van) or
behind the rear bench seat (Combi).


From the front

In the front bumper, unclip the cover on the
right using a flat tool.
Screw the removable towing eye in fully.
Then hook the towbar on the towing eye.
Unlock the steering by turning the the
ignition key one notch and release the
parking brake.
Switch on the hazard warning lamps on both
vehicles.
Move off gently and drive slowly, towing for
a short distance only.
On the towed vehicle, the gear
lever must be put in neutral; failure
to observe this special condition
may result in damage to certain braking
components (brakes, transmission...) and
the absence of braking assistance when the
engine is started.


From the rear

In the rear bumper, unclip the cover at the
bottom using a flat tool.
Screw the removable towing eye in fully.
Then hook the towbar on the towing eye.
Switch on the hazard warning lamps on both
vehicles.
Move off gently and drive slowly, towing for
a short distance only.


General recommendations

Observe the legislation in force in your
country.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle
is higher than that of the towed vehicle.
The driver must stay at the wheel of the
towed vehicle.
Driving on motorways and fast roads is
prohibited when towing.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground, always use an approved
towing bar; rope and straps are prohibited.
When towing a vehicle with the engine off,
there is no longer any power assistance for
braking or steering.
In the following cases, you must always call
on a professional recovery service:


- vehicle broken down on a motorway or
fast road,

- when it is not possible to put the gearbox
into neutral, unlock the steering, or
release the parking brake,

- towing with only two wheels on the
ground,

- where there is no approved towing bar
available...
