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 efficiency
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.



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.



Control the use of your electricalequipment


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 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.

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.

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.

Access
KEY
This locks and unlocks the doors on the
vehicle, opens and closes the fuel filler cap,
as well as starting and stopping the engine.
REMOTE CONTROL BATTERY
Reference: CR 2032/3 volts.
Changing the remote control battery



- press the button to eject the key,

- turn the screw 1
from the closed padlock
to the open padlock using a screwdriver
with a thin lip,

- use the screwdriver as a lever to extract
the battery holder housing 2
,
- remove the housing and change the
battery 3
observing the polarities,

- put the battery holder housing 2
back
inside the key and secure it by turning
the screw 1
.

There is a risk of damage if the
replacement battery is not of the
correct type.
Only use batteries which are identical or of
an equivalent type to those recommended
by a CITROËN dealer. Take used batteries
to an authorised collection point.

Starting and stopping
STARTING AND STOPPING


MAR
position: running.
Certain accessories can be used.

AV V
position: starter.
The starter is operated.

STOP
position: steering lock.
The ignition is off.


Good practice when starting


Engine immobiliser warning lamp
If this comes on, use another key
and have the faulty key checked
by a CITROËN dealer.

Diesel pre-heating warning
lamp
Turn the key to the MAR
position.
In cold weather, wait for this
warning lamp to switch off then operate the
starter ( AV V
position) until the engine starts.
If the temperature is high enough, the
warning lamp comes on for less than one
second, you can start without waiting.
Door or bonnet open warning lamp
If this comes on, a door or the bonnet
is not closed correctly, check!

Good practice when stopping


Minimise engine and gearbox wear
When switching off the ignition, let the
engine to idle for a few seconds to allow the
turbocharger to slow down.
Do not press the accelerator when switching
off the ignition.
There is no need to engage a gear after
parking the vehicle.



In low temperatures
In mountainous and/or cold areas, it is
advisable to use a "winter" type fuel suited
to low or minus temperatures.

EASE OF USE
and

T
Ventilation
Cancelling the programming
Press this button briefly to clear
the programmed start time.
The screen illumination and the
pre-selection number (e.g. 1) are
switched off.


Good practice

To avoid any risk of poisoning or
asphyxiation, the additional heating must
not be used, even for short periods, in
an enclosed space such as a garage or
workshop which is not fitted with an exhaust
gas extraction system.
The additional heating is supplied by the
vehicle's fuel tank.
Ensure that the fuel gauge indicator lamp is
not at reserve.
Always switch off the additional heating
when filling with fuel to avoid any risk of fire
or explosion.
Do not park the vehicle on an inflammable
surface (dry grass, dead leaves, paper…),
there is a risk of fire.
The temperature near the heater must not
exceed 120 °C. A temperature higher than
this (for example in the case of painting in
an oven) could damage the components of
the electronic circuits.
The additional heating system is fitted with
a temperature limiter which cuts off the
combustion in the event of overheating due
to a lack of coolant.
Top up the coolant, then press the
programme selection control before
switching the heating on again. Have the additional heating system
checked at least once a year at the
beginning of winter. Maintenance and
repairs should only be carried out by a
CITROËN dealer.
Use only genuine replacement parts.
Recalling one of the pre-selected
start times
Press this button as many times
as necessary until the number
corresponding to the required
pre-selected start time (e.g. 2)
appears.
After ten seconds, the time is cleared but
remains stored for as long as the number
(e.g. 2) and the screen remain on.
Switching off the heating

Press this button.
The heating cycle indicator lamp
and the screen are switched off.
Two different types of equipment

The additional heating is separate and
programmable. Before you enter the vehicle,
it gradually increases the temperature of the
engine to make starting easier.
This also facilitates passenger compartment
heating, demisting and defrosting.
The additional passenger compartment
heating system supplements the
standard equipment. Its operation may be
independent of the engine.
Switching on of the heating may be
programmable.

Low fuel level
When the fuel tank level E
(Empty) is reached, this warning
lamp comes on. At this moment,
you have enough fuel left to
drive approximately 30 miles (50 km)
,
depending on the driving conditions, the
engine and the profile of the road. Fill up
without delay to avoid running out of fuel. The fuel tank must be filled with the engine
off.


- Open the fuel filler flap.

- Support the cap with one hand.

- With the other hand, insert the key, then
turn it anticlockwise.

- Remove the cap and hook it onto the
clip located on the inside of the flap.
A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle. This could
cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 90
litres.


- After filling the fuel tank, lock the cap
and close the flap.
FUEL SYSTEM CUT-OFF

In the event of a serious collision, a device
automatically cuts off the fuel supply
to the engine and the vehicle's electrical
supply.
FILLING WITH FUEL
Fuel tanks of different capacities,
60 and 125 litres, may be fitted. Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel
outside the vehicle.
Restore the supply by pressing:


- the first button,
located below the steering wheel.

- the second button, located in the
battery compartment, under the front
passenger's floor.


In low temperatures
In mountainous and/or cold areas, it is
advisable to use a "winter" type fuel suited
to low or minus temperatures.

Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines

The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible with biofuels which conform to current and future European standards (Diesel fuel which
complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which complies with standard EN 14214) available at the pumps (containing up to 7 %
Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain Diesel engines; however, this use is subject to strict application of the special servicing conditions.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the
engine and fuel system).
