Driving
This gearbox has two driving modes:


- an automated mode for automatic control
of the gears by the gearbox and therefore
without any action on the part of the driver,

- a manual mode for sequential changing of
the gears by the driver using the steering
mounted controls or the gear lever.






CVT gearbox

It includes the following controls:


- a gear lever 1
on the centre console for
selecting the driving mode, reverse gear
and neutral or for changing gear in manual
mode,
- a "-"
steering mounted control paddle 2
for
manual downward gear changes,

- a "+/OFF"
steering mounted control
paddle 3
for manual upward gear changes.

The six-speed automatic gearbox offers a choice between the comfort of automatic regulation or the pleasure of manual gear changing.

The mode can be changed at any time.

118Driving

Manual gear changing

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 change down than that offered
in automated mode (arrival at a roundabout,
exit from a car park with a steep gradient,
over taking...).
The gearbox engages the gear requested if
the engine speed permits it. The gear engaged
appears.
To return to the automated mode, do one of the
following:


- press the back of the "+/OFF"
steering
mounted control 3
for approximately
2 seconds,

- move the gear lever quickly towards
position +/-
and then return it to position D
,

- stop the vehicle.




Stopping the vehicle
Operating fault

With the ignition on, if the message "Slow
down"
or "Service required"
appears in
the instrument panel screen, this indicates 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 P
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
qualified workshop without delay. Before switching off the engine, you must place
the gear lever in position P
.
You must apply the parking brake to immobilise
the vehicle.

Checks






Checking levels


Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could start at
any time (even with the ignition off).


















Oil level


The check of the the level is done
out with the dipstick, located under
the bonnet. Refer to the description
of your engine compartment for the
position of the dipstick.
Engine oil change

Refer to the maintenance and warranty guide
for details of the inter val for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emission control system, the use of
additives in the engine oil is prohibited.


Oil specifi cation

The oil must be the correct grade for your
engine and conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.

Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the maintenance and warranty guide. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.



















Dipstick

There are two marks on the dipstick:

A
= maximum
If the level is above this
mark, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified
workshop.

B
= minimum
Top up the level through the
oil filler orifice, using the
correct grade of oil for your
engine. The level must never
be below this mark.
This check will only be correct if the vehicle is
on level ground and the engine has been off for
more than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two ser vices (or oil changes). CITROËN
recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 km).
After topping up the oil, the check when
switching on the ignition with the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel is not valid
during the 30 minutes after topping up.
