FAMILIARISATION
ECO-DRIVING
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2
emissions.

Optimise the use of your
gearbox

With a manual gearbox, move off
gently, change up without waiting
and drive by changing up quite
soon. If your vehicle has the system,
the gear effi ciency indicator invites
you to change up; it is displayed
in the instrument panel, follow its
instructions.

With an automatic or electronic
gearbox, stay in Drive "D"
or
Auto "A"
, according to the type
of gearbox, without pressing
the accelerator pedal heavily or
suddenly.



Control the use of your
electrical equipment

Before moving off, if the passenger
compartment is too warm, ventilate it
by opening the windows and air vents
before using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the
windows and leave the air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment
that can help keep the temperature
in the passenger compartment down
(sunroof and window blinds...).
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.


Drive smoothly


Maintain a safe distance between
vehicles, use engine braking rather
than the brake pedal, and press the
accelerator progressively. These
practices contribute towards a
reduction in fuel consumption and
CO
2 emissions and also helps reduce
the background traffi c noise.

If your vehicle has cruise control,
make use of the system at speeds
above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the
traffi c is fl owing well.


As a passenger, if you avoid
connecting your multimedia devices
(fi lm, 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.
Switch off the air conditioning, unless
it has automatic digital regulation, as
soon as the desired temperature is
attained.
Switch off the demisting and
defrosting controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.

18

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 refi t 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 particular:


- 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 serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and
observe 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 overfl ow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.

KEY

This locks and unlocks the doors on
the vehicle, opens and closes the
fuel fi ller cap, as well as starting and
stopping the engine.

ACCESS REMOTE CONTROL

Central unlocking

Central locking

Press this button to lock all of
your vehicle's doors.
The direction indicators fl ash once.
If one of the doors is open or is not
closed correctly, the central locking will
not work.


Deadlocking


A second press
on the closed padlock
on the remote control within fi ve
seconds after locking changes the
locking to deadlocking.
This is confi rmed by fi xed lighting
of the direction indicators for
approximately two seconds.
Deadlocking renders the exterior
and interior door opening handles
inoperative: do not leave anyone inside
the vehicle when it is deadlocked.
If deadlocking is activated from inside
the vehicle using the remote control, it
will change to normal locking when the
vehicle is started. Press this button to unlock all
of your vehicle's doors.
The direction indicators fl ash twice.

Access

Good practice

Take care not to allow the remote
control to come into contact with
grease, dust, rain or a damp
environment.
A heavy object attached to the key
(keyring, ...) weighing on the shaft of
the key in the switch, may cause a
malfunction.

REMOTE CONTROL
Reinitialising the remote control

Following changing of the remote
control battery or disconnection of the
vehicle battery, the remote control may
have to be reinitialised.
Wait at least one minute before using
the remote control.
Insert the key in the ignition switch with
the buttons (padlocks) of the remote
control facing you.
Switch on the ignition.
Press the locking padlock for at
least fi ve seconds within the next
ten seconds.
Switch off the ignition.
Wait at least one minute before using
the remote control.
The remote control is now working
again. Use only identical batteries or
batteries of an equivalent type to those
recommended by CITROËN dealers.
Do not discard the remote control
batteries, they contain metals which
are harmful to the environment.
Deposit them at a CITROËN
dealership, or at an authorised
collection point.


Folding/unfolding the key

Changing the battery

Battery ref.: CR1620/3 volts.
The "battery fl at" information is given
by an audible signal, accompanied by
a message in the screen.
To replace the battery, unclip the
casing using a coin at the ring.
If the remote control does not work
after the battery has been changed,
reinitialise the remote control.
There is a risk of damage if the
replacement battery is not the correct
type . Press this button to release
the key from its housing.
To fold the key, press this
chromed button then fold
the key into the housing.
If you do not press the button, the
mechanism may be damaged.

When leaving the vehicle, check that
the lamps are off and nothing of value
is visible.
As a safety precaution (with children
on board), remove the key from the
ignition when leaving the vehicle, even
for a short time.


Good practice

Do not make any modifi cations to the
electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even
when it is in your pocket, may result in
involuntary unlocking of the doors.
The simultaneous use of other
high frequency equipment (mobile
telephones, domestic alarms…), may
interfere with the operation of the
remote control temporarily.
The remote control does not operate
while the key is in the ignition, even if
the ignition is off.
ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER

All of the keys contain an electronic
immobiliser device.
This device locks the engine supply
system. It is activated automatically
when the key is removed from the
ignition.
After the ignition is switched on,
a dialogue is established between the
key and the electronic immobiliser
system.
The metal part of the key must be
unfolded correctly for correct dialogue
to take place.

If you lose your keys
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the
vehicle's V5 registration document and
your identifi cation document.
A CITROËN dealer will be able
to retrieve the key code and
the transponder code so that a
replacement key can be ordered.

When purchasing a second-hand
vehicle:



- have the keys memorised by a
CITROËN dealer to ensure that
the keys in your possession are
the only ones which can start the
vehicle.
ALARM

If fi tted on your vehicle, this provides
two types of protection:


- exterior protection: it sounds if a
front/rear door or the bonnet is
opened.

- interior protection: it sounds if
the volume inside the passenger
compartment changes (breaking of
a window or a movement inside the
vehicle).
If your vehicle is fi tted with a separation
partition, the interior protection is not
active in the load space.

Locking the vehicle with
complete alarm

Setting the alarm



- Switch off the ignition and get out of
the vehicle.

- Set the alarm within fi ve minutes of
getting out of the vehicle, by locking
or deadlocking using the remote
control. The red LED, located in the
button, fl ashes once per second.

FRONT DOORS

From the inside

Use the door opening control to unlock
and open the door concerned.


From the outside

Use the remote control to lock/unlock
the vehicle.
Insert the metal part of the key in the
lock on the driver's side if the remote
control does not work.


Disarming



- Unlock the vehicle with the remote
control or switch on the ignition, the
red LED goes off.



Locking the vehicle with
exterior protection only
If, while you are away from the
vehicle, you wish to leave a window
partially open or a pet inside the
vehicle, you should choose exterior
protection only.


- Switch off the ignition.

- In the next ten seconds,
press the button until
the red LED is on
continuously.

- Get out of the vehicle.

- Within the next fi ve minutes, set
the alarm by locking or deadlocking
using the remote control (the red
LED fl ashes once a second).



Triggering

The siren sounds, the direction indicators
fl ash for approximately 30 seconds and
the red LED fl ashes rapidly.


- To switch it off, insert the key and
switch on the ignition.
When the alarm has been triggered ten
times in succession (when triggered for
the eleventh time) it is deactivated. Repeat
the procedure for setting the alarm.


Locking the vehicle without
alarm


- Insert the key in the lock on the
driver’s door and lock it.
Do not set the alarm when washing
your vehicle.


Failure of the remote control

When the alarm is set but the remote
control does not operate:


- Unlock the doors with the key and
open the door. The alarm is triggered.

- Switch on the ignition in the
next ten seconds. The alarm is
disarmed.



Incorrect operation

When the ignition is switched on, if the
red LED remains on for ten seconds,
there is a fault in the siren connection.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked.


Automatic setting of the alarm

Depending on the country in which
the vehicle is sold, the alarm is set
automatically approximately 2 minutes
after the last door is closed.
To prevent triggering of the alarm when
a door is opened, you have to press
the remote control unlocking button
again.
Do not make any modifi cations
to the alarm system as this could
cause faults.
