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.

the vehicle, opens and closes the
fuel fi ller cap, as well as starting and

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.

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.

Access
CENTRAL LOCKING
An initial press permits
central locking of the vehicle,
when all of the doors are
closed.
A second press permits
central unlocking of the vehicle.
The control is inactive when the vehicle
has been locked using the remote
control or the key from the outside.
The doors can still be opened from the
inside.
Door open warning lamp
The control switch LED:
- fl ashes when the doors are locked
with the vehicle stationary and the
engine off,
- comes on when the doors are
locked and from the time the
ignition is switched on.
Anti-intrusion security
If this warning lamp comes
on, check that all of your
vehicle's doors are closed
correctly.
Locking while driving
When the vehicle moves off, as soon
as you reach approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h), the system locks the doors.
The characteristic central locking noise
is heard. The LED in the switch on the
dashboard central switch panel comes on.
During the journey, opening a door
results in complete unlocking of the
vehicle.
In the event of a serious impact, the
doors are unlocked automatically
to permit access by the emergency
services.
Activating/deactivating the function
With the ignition on, press
and hold this switch to
activate or deactivate the
function.

immediately. When the engine is running: the warning lamp becomes a warning if it remains on continuously or fl ashes.
This initial warning may be accompanied by an audible signal and a message which appears in the screen.
