The cruise control or speed limiter
mode appears in the instrument panel
when it is selected.
The values must be set with the engine
running.
In order to be programmed or activated,
the vehicle speed must be higher than
25 mph (40 km/h), with at least fourth
gear engaged on a manual gearbox
(second gear for an electronic gearbox
or automatic gearbox).

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 gen-
tly and change up without waiting.
During acceleration change up early.
With an automatic or electronic gear-
box, give preference to automatic mode
and avoid pressing the accelerator
pedal heavily or suddenly.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between ve-
hicles, use engine braking rather than
the brake pedal, and press the accel-
erator progressively. These practices
contribute towards a reduction in fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions and
also helps reduce the background traf-
fi c noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make
use of the system at speeds above
25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffi c is
fl owing well.
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.
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 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.
ECO-DRIVING
The gear shift indicator invites you to
change up: as soon as the indication
to change up is displayed in the instru-
ment panel, follow it straight away.
With an electronic or automatic gear-
box, this indicator appears only in
manual mode.

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 (fi lm, music,
video game...), you will contribute to-
wards limiting the consumption of elec-
trical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices be-
fore leaving the vehicle.
Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle;
place the heaviest items in the bottom
of the boot, as close as possible to the
rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle
and reduce wind resistance (roof bars,
roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use
a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after
use.
At the end of winter, remove snow
tyres and refi t your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly,
when cold, referring to the label in the
door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the
tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and ob-
serve the schedule of operations rec-
ommended by the manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after
the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overfl ow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only
after the fi rst 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption set-
tle down to a consistent average.

Warning and indicator lamps
Visual indicators which inform the driver of the occurrence of a malfunction (warn-
ing lamp) or of the operation of a system (operation or deactivation indicator lamp).
When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds when the ignition is switched on.
When the engine is started, these warning lamps should go off.
If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the information on the warning lamp
in question.
Associated warnings
The illumination, fi xed or fl ashing, of certain warning lamps may be accompanied
by an audible signal and the display of a message.
Warning lamps
When the engine is running or the vehicle is being driven, the illumination of one of the fol-
lowing warning lamps indicates a malfunction which requires action on the part of the driver.
The warning comes on in the instrument panel.
If your vehicle has a screen, a
warning lamp coming on is al-
ways accompanied by the dis-
play of an additional message,
to assist you in identifying the
problem.
If you encounter any problems,
do not hesitate to contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.

accompanied by
an audible signal
and a message in

lamp is associated with a
serious fault with the braking
system, power steering,
engine lubrication system or
cooling system. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so as
there is a risk that the engine will cut out
while driving.
Park, switch off the ignition and contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

Wait until the engine has cooled down
before topping up the level, if necessary.
If the problem persists, contact a
CITROËN dealer or qualifi ed workshop.
