A few definitions…

This value may vary following a change
in the style of driving or the relief,
resulting in a significant change in the
current fuel consumption.
If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
The fuel consumption of your vehicle will
be higher than the official figures obtained
by CITROËN during the first 3 000 miles
(5 000 km) of the vehicle's life.


Range

(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
which can still be travelled with the fuel
remaining in the tank in relation to the average
fuel consumption over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least
5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).

Current fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consumption during the
last few seconds.

Average fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consumption since the
last trip computer zero reset.

Average speed

(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed calculated
since the last trip computer zero reset
(ignition on).


Distance travelled

(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
travelled since the last trip computer zero reset.









Stop & Start time
counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/
minutes)
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time
counter calculates the time spent in STOP
mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the key.

Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning


If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very
high, first ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer. In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:



To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles
located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
as the air extractor located in the boot.


Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation
of the air conditioning system.


Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month
to keep it in per fect working order.


Ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly.
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its
special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).


To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have
it checked regularly as recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.


If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the
air conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.
The condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge
of water under the vehicle which is
per fectly normal.




Stop & Start

The heating and air conditioning systems only work when the engine is running. To maintain
a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment, you can temporarily deactivate
the Stop & Start system (see the corresponding section).

2. Driver's side adjustment
4. Automatic visibility
programme
For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible
to exceed the minimum value 14 or the
maximum value 28.



Turn control 2
or 3
to the left until
"LO"
is displayed or to the right
until "HI"
is displayed. See "Front demisting - defrosting".



3. Passenger's side adjustment

The driver and front passenger can
each adjust the temperature to their
requirements.
The value indicated on the display
corresponds to a level of comfort and not to a
temperature in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.



Turn control 2
or 3
to the left or to the right
respectively to decrease or increase this
value.
A setting around the value 21 provides
optimum comfort. However, depending on your
requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is
normal.
You are advised to avoid a left / right setting
difference of more than 3.


Manual operation

If you wish, you can make a different choice
from that offered by the system by changing
a setting. The the "AUTO "
indicator lamps go
off; the other functions will still be controlled
automatically.



Pressing the "AUTO "
button returns the
system to completely automatic operation.






With Stop & Start, when demisting has
been activated, the STOP mode is not
available.

Switching the system off




Turn the air flow control to the
left until all of the indicator
lamps go off.
This switch does not operate the air conditioning, only the air fan.
When the "REST" function is activated, you cannot modify the temperature, air flow
and distribution settings: these are controlled automatically according to the ambient
temperature.
This function is not available in the STOP mode of Stop & Start.
Avoid prolonged operation in interior
air recirculation mode or driving for
long periods with the system off (risk of
misting and deterioration of air quality).
On switching on the engine



- The control screens come on: the function
is available.

- Pressing the REST
button activates the
ventilation for a few minutes. Activation of
the function is confirmed by the display of
two dashes in the control screens and four
air flow level indicator lamps.

- The function can be deactivated and
reactivated if the control screens are on.

- The screens go off at the end of this
period.
On stopping the engine



- While the control screens remain on: the
function is available.

- Pressing the REST
button activates the
ventilation for a few minutes. Activation of
the function is confirmed by the display of
two dashes in the control screens and four
air flow level indicator lamps.
Locking the vehicle has no effect on this
function.

- The control screens go off at the end of this
period.
Pressing again before the end of the period
interrupts off the ventilation definitively: the
control screens go off and the function is
no longer available. This action switches off the air conditioning and
the ventilation.
Temperature related comfort is no longer
assured but a slight flow of air, due to the
movement of the vehicle, can still be felt.



Modify the settings (temperature, air flow
or air distribution) or press the "AUTO "

button to reactivate the system with the
values set before it was switched off.

Front demist - defrost


These markings on the control panel indicate the control positions for rapid demisting or
defrosting of the windscreen and side windows.


With manual air
conditioning



Put the temperature, air flow and
distribution controls to the dedicated
marked position.


Put the air intake control to the "Exterior air
intake" position
(indicator lamp on the control off).

Switch on the air conditioning by pressing
the "A /C "
button; the warning lamp in the
button comes on.



With digital dual-zone air
conditioning

With Stop & Start, when the demisting,
air conditioning and air flow functions
are activated, STOP mode is not
available.


Automatic visibility programme




Select this programme to demist or defrost
the windscreen and side windows as
quickly as possible.
The system automatically manages the air
conditioning, air flow and air intake, and
provides optimum distribution towards the
windscreen and side windows.



To stop the programme, press either the
"visibility"
button again or "AUTO "
, the
warning lamp on the button goes off and
the warning lamp on the "AUTO "
button
comes on.
The system starts again with the values in
use before it was overridden by the visibility
programme.






With Stop & Start, when demisting has
been activated, the STOP mode is not
available.
