2012 Citroen JUMPY Warm up

Interior
18ECO-DRIVING
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2 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 shift 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.
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 traffic noise.

If your vehicle has cruise control, make
use of the system at speeds above 25 mph
(40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.


As a passenger, if you avoid connecting
your multimedia devices (film, 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.
Remember to make use of equipment
that can help keep the temperature in the
passenger compartment down (sunroof
and window blinds...).
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.

Good practice

For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible to exceed
the value 15 by turning until LO is displayed or
the value 27 by turning until HI is displayed.
For optimum comfort, the difference between
the value displayed for the driver and for the
passenger should not be greater than 3. If your vehicle is fitted with this control
panel, it is located on the centre console. On entering the vehicle, the inside
temperature may be much colder
(or warmer) than is comfortable. There is no
advantage in changing the value displayed
in order to quickly reach the level of comfort
required. The system will use its maximum
performance to reach the comfort value set.

Levels



Cooling system

Only use the fluid recommended by the
manufacturer.
Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging your
engine.
When the engine is warm, the temperature
of the coolant is controlled by the engine
fan. As this fan can operate with the ignition
key removed and because the cooling
system is pressurised, wait for at least one
hour after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by 1/4 of a turn to release
the pressure to prevent any risk of scalding.
When the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level with coolant.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a fault which must be checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.

Power steering fluid level

The vehicle must be parked on level ground
with the engine cold. Unscrew the cap
integrated with the gauge and check the
level which must be between the MIN and
MAX marks. When this occurs with the engine running it
is due to the start of saturation of the particle
emission filter (exceptionally prolonged
urban type driving conditions: low speed,
long traffic jams, ...).
In order to regenerate the filter, you are
advised to drive at a speed higher than
40 mph (60 km/h) for at least five minutes
as soon as possible, when traffic conditions
permit (until the message disappears and
the service warning lamp goes off).
During regeneration of the particle emission
filter, relay noise may be heard under the
dashboard.
If the message is still displayed and if the
service warning lamp remains on, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

Topping up
The level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks on the expansion bottle. If
more than 1 litre of fluid is required to top
up the level, have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.



Screenwash and headlamp wash
level
For best quality cleaning and for your safety,
we would advise that you use products of
the CITROËN range.
Capacity of the screenwash reservoir:
approximately 4.5 litres.
If your vehicle is fitted with headlamp
washers, the capacity of the reservoir is
7.5 litres.
To ensure optimum cleaning and prevent
freezing, this fluid must not be topped up or
replaced with plain water.


Diesel additive level (Diesel
with particle emission filter)
The minimum level of this additive
is indicated by lighting of the
service warning light, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the screen.
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
