FUEL GAUGE
 
The fuel level is tested each time the key is 
turned to the "running" position. 
  The gauge is positioned on: 
   
 
-   F (Full): 
 the fuel tank is full, 
approximately 90 litres. 
   
-   E (Empty): 
 the reserve is now being 
used, the warning lamp comes on 
continuously.  
  The reserve when the warning first comes 
on is approximately 11 litres. 
  Fuel tanks of different capacities (60 and 
125 litres) are available as an option. 
COOLANT TEMPERATURE 
   
The needle is positioned between 
C (Cold) and H (Hot): 
 normal operation. 
  In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic 
conditions, the needle may move close to 
the red graduations.    
-   wait for the engine to cool down in 
order to check the level and top it up if 
necessary. Follow this advice:  
  the cooling system is pressurised. In 
order to avoid any risk of scalding, 
unscrew the cap by two turns to allow 
the pressure to drop. 
  When the pressure has dropped, check the 
level and remove the cap to top up. 
  If the needle remains in the red zone, 
contact a CITROËN dealer. 
  Refer to the "Levels" section of 
chapter 7. 
  Refer to the "Fuel" section of chapter 7.    
What you should do if the needle enters 
the red zone, or if the warning lamp 
comes on:  
   
 
-   stop immediately, switch off the ignition. The 
fan may continue to operate for a certain 
time up to approximately 10 minutes. 
  EMISSION CONTROL 
 
EOBD (European On Board Diagnosis) is 
a diagnostics system which complies with, 
among others, the standards concerning 
authorised emissions of: 
   
 
-   CO (carbon monoxide), 
   
-   HC (unburnt hydrocarbons), 
   
-   NOx (nitrogen oxides) or particles, 
detected by oxygen sensors placed 
upstream and downstream of the 
catalytic converters.  
   
Therefore, the driver is warned of
any malfunction of this emission 
control system by the lighting of 
this specifi c warning lamp on the 
instrument panel. 
  There is a risk of damage to the catalytic 
converter. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer.

Starting and stopping
 
The Stop & Start system puts the engine 
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - 
during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic 
jams, or other...). The engine restarts 
automatically - START mode - as soon as 
you want to move off. The restart takes 
place instantly, quickly and silently. 
  Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start 
system reduces fuel consumption and 
exhaust emissions and offers the comfort of 
complete silence when stationary.

Going into engine STOP mode 
   
 
-  The  "S" 
 warning lamp comes 
on in the instrument panel and 
the engine goes into standby. 
With the vehicle stationary, 
put the gear lever into neutral, 
then release the clutch pedal.  
    
Automatic stopping of the engine is 
only possible after the vehicle has 
exceed a speed of about 6 mph (10 km/h), 
to avoid repeated stopping of the engine 
when driving slowly.  
   
Never leave your vehicle with out first 
turning off the ignition with the key.  
   
 
Never refuel with the engine in STOP 
mode; you must switch off the ignition 
with the key.     
Special cases: STOP mode unavailable 
  The STOP mode is not invoked when: 
   
 
-   the system is initialising, 
   
-   the driver's door is open, 
   
-   the driver's seat belt is not fastened, 
   
-   the air conditioning is running, 
   
-   the heated rear screen is on, 
   
-   the windscreen wiper is on fast wipe, 
   
-   reverse gear is engaged, for a parking 
manoeuvre, 
   
-   some special conditions (battery 
charge, engine temperature, particle 
filter regeneration, braking assistance, 
ambient temperature...) where the 
engine is needed to assure control of 
a system.  
 
   
The  "S"

Cancelling the programming
 
Press this button briefly to clear 
the programmed start time. 
  The screen illumination and the 
pre-selection number (e.g. 1) are 
switched off.  
Good practice
 
To avoid any risk of poisoning or 
asphyxiation, the additional heating must 
not be used, even for short periods, in 
an enclosed space such as a garage or 
workshop which is not fitted with an exhaust 
gas extraction system. 
  The additional heating is supplied by the 
vehicle's fuel tank. 
  Ensure that the fuel gauge indicator lamp is 
not at reserve. 
  Always switch off the additional heating 
when filling with fuel to avoid any risk of fire 
or explosion. 
  Do not park the vehicle on an inflammable 
surface (dry grass, dead leaves, paper…), 
there is a risk of fire. 
  The temperature near the heater must not 
exceed 120 °C. A temperature higher than 
this (for example in the case of painting in 
an oven) could damage the components of 
the electronic circuits. 
  The additional heating system is fitted with 
a temperature limiter which cuts off the 
combustion in the event of overheating due 
to a lack of coolant. 
  Top up the coolant, then press the 
programme selection control before 
switching the heating on again.   Have the additional heating system 
checked at least once a year at the 
beginning of winter. Maintenance and 
repairs should only be carried out by a 
CITROËN dealer. 
  Use only genuine replacement parts.  
 
 
Recalling one of the pre-selected 
start times 
   
Press this button as many times 
as necessary until the number 
corresponding to the required pre-
selected start time (e.g. 2) appears. 
  After ten seconds, the time is cleared but 
remains stored for as long as the number 
(e.g. 2) and the screen remain on.  
 
 
Switching off the heating 
 
Press this button. 
  The heating cycle indicator lamp 
and the screen are switched off.  
 
 
Two different types of equipment 
 
The additional heating is separate and 
programmable. Before you enter the vehicle, 
it gradually increases the temperature of the 
engine to make starting easier. 
  This also facilitates passenger compartment 
heating, demisting and defrosting. 
  The additional passenger compartment 
heating system supplements the 
standard equipment. Its operation may be 
independent of the engine. 
  Switching on of the heating may be 
programmable.

Fuel 
 
 
Low fuel level 
 
When the fuel tank level  E  
(Empty) is reached, this warning 
lamp comes on. At this moment, 
you have  enough fuel left to 
drive approximately 30 miles (50 km) 
, 
depending on the driving conditions, the 
engine and the profile of the road. Fill up 
without delay to avoid running out of fuel.   The fuel tank must be filled  with the engine 
off.  
   
 
-   Open the fuel filler flap. 
   
-   Support the cap with one hand. 
   
-   With the other hand, insert the key, then 
turn it anticlockwise. 
   
-   Remove the cap and hook it onto the 
clip located on the inside of the flap.  
  A label affixed to the inside of the flap 
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used. 
  When filling the fuel tank, do not continue 
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle. This could 
cause malfunctions. 
  The capacity of the fuel tank is 
approximately  90 
 litres. 
   
 
-   After filling the fuel tank, lock the cap 
and close the flap.  
 
FUEL SYSTEM CUT-OFF 
 
In the event of a serious collision, a device 
automatically cuts off the fuel supply 
  to the engine and the vehicle's electrical 
supply. 
  FILLING WITH FUEL 
 
Fuel tanks of different capacities, 
60 and 125 litres, may be fitted.    Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel 
outside the vehicle. 
  Restore the supply by pressing: 
   
 
-  
the fi rst button,   
located below the steering wheel. 
 
 
-   the second button, located in the 
battery compartment, under the front 
passenger's floor.  
   
 
In low temperatures 
  In mountainous and/or cold areas, it is 
advisable to use a "winter" type fuel suited 
to low or minus temperatures.  
     
 
 
 
 
 
With Stop & Start, never refuel with 
the system in STOP mode; you must 
switch off the ignition with the key.
