Limit the causes of excess consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle;place the heaviest items in the bottomof the boot, as close as possible to therear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicleand reduce wind resistance (roof bars,roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Usea roof box in preference.

Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.

At the end of winter, remove snowtyres and refi t your summer tyres.


Observe the recommendations on maintenance

Check the tyre pressures regularly,when cold, referring to the label in thedoor 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 thetyres on any trailer or caravan.


Have your vehicle serviced regularly(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and ob-serve the schedule of operations rec-ommended by the manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoidany overfl ow.


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

BRAKING ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS
Group of supplementary systems which
help you to obtain optimum braking in
complete safety in emergency situations:


- anti-lock braking system (ABS),

- electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD).
When braking in an emergency,
press very fi rmly without releas-
ing the pressure. The two warning lamps comes on
at the same time and the two warn-
ings are displayed alternately in the
instrument panel screen.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.

Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on, accompa-
nied by the indication on the instrument
panel screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the anti-lock braking system which could
result in a loss of control of the vehicle
when braking.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop. If these two warning lamps come on,
linked with the warnings on the instru-
ment panel screen, they indicate a mal-
function of the electronic brake force
distribution which could result in a loss
of control of the vehicle on braking.

You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.


Anti-lock braking system and electronic brake force distribution

Linked systems which improve the sta-
bility and manoeuvrability of your vehi-
cle when braking, in particular on poor
or slippery surfaces. The warning lamp comes on for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched
on (ON position). If it does not switch
off or does not come on, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
When the vehicle is stationary

When the vehicle is moving
If this warning lamp comes on
continuously it indicates a mal-
function of the anti-lock braking
system which could result in a
loss of control of the vehicle on braking.

You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.


Activation
The anti-lock braking system is active if
the vehicle speed is higher than 6 mph
(10 km/h). It is deactivated when the ve-
hicle speed falls below 3 mph (5 km/h).
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when there
is a risk of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.
