accompanied by an audible signal and a message
in the instrument panel screen, indicates a
mal
function of the gearbox.
Have it checked by CITROËN or a qualified
workshop. Be
fore switching off the engine, you canchoose to:

The "ECO"warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the engine goes into standby:
- with the electronic
gearboxsystem,at speeds below 5 mph (8 km/h), press
the brake pedal or put the gear lever inposition N.
If your vehicle is fitted with the system, a timecounter calculates the sum of the periods in STOP mode during a journey. It rests itself to
zero every time the ignition is switched on with
the STA R T/STOP button.
Never refuel with the engine in STOPmode; you must switch off the ignition with the STA R T/STOP button.
For your comfor t, during parkingmaoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear.STOP mode does not affect the functionality of the vehicle, such as for example, braking, power steering...


Special cases: STOP mode not available
STOP mode is not invoked when:


- the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,

- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph(10 km/h) since the last engine start usingthe START/STOP button,

- the electric parking brake is applied or
being applied,

- the engine is needed to maintain acomfor table temperature in the passenger compartment,

- demisting is active,

- some special conditions (battery charge, engine temperature, braking assistance,ambient temperature...) where the engine isneeded to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO"
warning
lamp flashes for a few seconds thengoes off. The
Stop & Star t system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
The engine restar ts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restar t takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Star t system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
This operation is per fectly normal.

introduces the risk of malfunction of the system.
For charging, use a 12 V charger and do not
reverse the polarity.
