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.

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.
22
Access
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.

Ventilation
DEMISTING AND DEFROSTING GOOD PRACTICE
Vents
"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion
of hot or cool air in the passenger
compartment, there are adjustable
central and side vents which can
be directed sideways (right or left)
or vertically (up or down). For your
comfort while driving, do not close
them and direct the fl ow of air towards
the windows instead.
Air vents in the footwells and directed
towards the windscreen complete the
equipment.
Do not block the vents located at the
windscreen or the air extractor located
in the boot.
Dust filter, odour filter (activated
carbon)
This fi lter traps certain dust and limits
odours.
Ensure that this fi lter is in good
condition and have all of the fi lter
elements replaced regularly.
Refer to the "Checks" section of chapter 6.
Air conditioning
In all seasons, the air conditioning
should only be used with the windows
closed. However, if the interior
temperature remains high after a
prolonged period parked in the sun, do
not hesitate to ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes.
Use the AUTO mode as much as
possible as it permits optimised
control of all of the functions: air fl ow,
passenger compartment comfort
temperature, air distribution, air
intake mode or air recirculation in the
passenger compartment.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.
It is normal that the condensation
created by the air conditioning system
results in a fl ow of water which may
form a puddle under the vehicle when
parked.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Automatic mode: visibility
programme
The comfort programme (AUTO) may
not be suffi cient to quickly demist or
defrost the windows (humidity, several
passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility
programme. The visibility programme
indicator comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air
fl ow and provides optimum distribution
of the ventilation to the windscreen and
side windows.
It deactivates the air recirculation.
