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.
With the electronic gearbox stay in Easy "E"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 CO2 emissions and also helps reduce the
background traffic noise.
Control the use of your electrical equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it byopening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windowsand leave the air vents open. Remember to make use of equipment that canhelp keep the temperature in the passenger compartment down (sun blinds, ...).Switch off the air conditioning as soon as the desired temperature is attained.Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the headlamps and the foglamp whenthe level of light does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,particularly in winter; your vehicle will warmup much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limitingthe consumption of electrical energy, and soof fuel.
Disconnect your por table devices beforeleaving the vehicle.

QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
There is a difference in sound quality between
the different audiosources (radio, CD...).
For optimum sound quality, the audio settings
(Bass, Treble, Ambience, loudness) can be adapted to the different sound sources, which mayresult in audible differences when changing source (radio, CD...).
Check that the audio settings (Bass, Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to the sources listened to. It is advisable to adjust audio settings(Bass, Treble, Front-Rear balance, Left-Right balance)
to the middle position, select the musical ambience
and set the loudness correction to the "Active" position
in CD mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
When chan
ging the settings for treble and
bass, the ambience
setting is deselected.
When changing the
ambience setting, treble and bass are reset to zero.
Choosing an ambience imposes settings for treble and bass. Modifyingone without the other is only possible with a personalised ambience. Modify the treble and bass settings or the
ambience setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
The qualit
y of receptionof the radio station
listened to graduallydeteriorates or the stored stations do not function(no sound, 87.5 MHz is
displayed...). The vehicle is too
far from the transmitter used by the station listened
to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the
vehicle is travellin
g.
Activate the RDS function to enable the system
to check whether there is a more powerful
transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment
(hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate
a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is absent or has been dama
ged (for example when goingthrough a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2 seconds in radio mode.During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency
permitting better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route. The
following tables contain answers to the most frequently asked questions.
