COMFORT
44 For even air distribution, take care not
to obstruct the exterior air intake grille
located at the bottom of the windscreen,
the vents, the air outlets under the front
seats and the air extractor located be-
hind the fl aps in the boot. The water formed by the air conditioning
condensation is discharged via an open-
ing provided for this purpose. Therefore,
a puddle of water may form underneath
the vehicle when stationary.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and have it checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
AUTOMATIC REGULATION OF
THE DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING
Do not cover the temperature and hu-
midity sensor 2
and the sunshine sen-
sor 7
.
They are required for regulation of the
air conditioning.
Advice on operation

In hot weather, in order to obtain in-
tense ventilation, it is advisable to
use vents 1
and 4
only.
If, when the vehicle has been parked
in the sun for a long time, the interior
temperature remains very high, fi rst
ventilate the passenger compart-
ment for a few minutes. Switch off the air conditioning
when the climatic conditions
permit. Use of the automatic regulation of the
air conditioning is recommended. It per-
mits automatic and optimised control of
all of the following functions: air fl ow,
passenger compartment temperature
and air distribution, by means of various
sensors (ambient temperature, interior
temperature, sunshine), so preventing
the need for you to change your set-
tings other than the value displayed. In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load on a
steep gradient in hot weather), switch-
ing off the air conditioning saves engine
power and therefore improves the tow-
ing capacity.
Close the windows to benefi t from the
full effectiveness of the air conditioning.
Ensure that the passenger compart-
ment fi lter is in good condition. Have
the fi lter elements replaced periodically.
If you drive in a dusty environment, re-
place it twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and is not harmful to
the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.

DRIVING

Stopping - Starting on a slope


Do not use the accelerator pedal to im-
mobilise the vehicle on a slope, apply
the parking brake instead.
When starting on a slope, accelerate
gradually while releasing the parking
brake.


Switching to sequential mode

Once you have moved off, you can
switch to sequential mode by selecting
position +/-
.

"D"
disappears and the gears engaged
appear in succession in the instrument
panel screen.
The gear change requests are only carried
out if the engine speed permits it.
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal
gently to engage the gear.

Switching to automated mode


Automated mode
After using the sequential mode, you
can return to the automated mode by
selecting position D
.

"D"
appears in the instrument panel
screen.
The gearbox then operates in auto-active
mode, without any action on the part of
the driver.
It continuously selects the gear most
suited to the conditions of:


- driving style,

- road characteristics,

- vehicle load.
To optimise driving comfort and obtain
the most suitable gear, avoid sharp
variations in the pressure on the accel-
erator pedal.

Auto sequential mode
In the automated mode, you can take
over control temporarily at any time using
the steering mounted controls.
The use of these controls permits manual
selection of the gears in situations which
require a faster changedown than that
offered in automated mode (arrival at a
roundabout, exit from a car park with a
steep gradient, overtaking...). Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you
can:


- move to position N
to leave the
gearbox in neutral.

- leave a gear engaged, such as fi rst
or reverse.
In both cases, you must apply the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle.
Operating anomaly

With the ignition on, if the message "Slow
down"
or "Maintenance required"
ap-
pears in the multifunction screen, this indi-
cates a gearbox malfunction.
When a message is displayed, carry
out the following operations:


- slow down and stop your vehicle in
a safe place,

- place the lever in position N
and let
the engine run,

- open the bonnet to allow the engine
to cool.
If the message disappears for a long
period, you can set off again.
If the message remains displayed or
appears frequently, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop without
delay.
Press the brake pedal fi rmly
while starting the engine.

Start the engine. "N"
appears in the in-
strument panel screen.

or +/-
) or reverse
(position R

Release the parking brake.
Release the brake pedal then accelerate.

"D"
or "1"
or "R"
appear in the instrument
panel screen. The gearbox engages the gear re-
quested if the engine speed permits it.
The gear engaged appears.
To return to the automated mode, press
the back of the "+/OFF"
control for ap-
proximately 2 seconds.
At low speeds, when approaching a
stop or traffi c lights for example, the
gearbox changes down to fi rst gear au-
tomatically.
