9Familiarisation
For economical driving, caring for the environment
The fuel consumptionof a vehicle varies greatly:
- according to the driver's style of driving
(moderate, aggressive, fast, ...),
- accordin
g to the type of journeys
made (urban, main road, motor way, flowing, heavy traffic, …) and the speed.
Main recommendations for driving economically
Hybrid mode selector
To optimise fuel consumption, use the Automodeof the selector whenever possible (the mode is activated
automatically when starting) including for urban journeys.
This mode optimises the use of the energy sources (internal combustion engine and/or electric) contrary to other modes, which are for use in par ticular cases.
Gear lever
Use the automatic
mode A
as much as possible as this optimises gear changes to suit the requirements.
Causes of high consumption and checks
As with any vehicle, limit overloading, wind resistance (windows open above 30 mph (50 km/h), roof bars, loaded or not, …), the use of power consumers (air conditioning, heated seats, heated rear screen, …).
Obser ve the recommendations on checks (regular check of tyre pressures, correct tyre pressures, …) and routine servicing.
Drive smoothly
Stay in the "eco" zone
displayed in the energy consumption / generation indicator: accelerate gently, drive at steadyspeeds using the speed limiter or cruise control as soon as possible.Use the "charge" zone: anticipate the need to slow down by taking your foot off the accelerator rather than braking.
The movement of the energy consumption / generation indicator needle (into the "charge" zone), shows the level of energy recovery.
Consumption history
See the impact of your style of driving and the type of journey by reviewing the history of your energy consumption.Refer to the "Multifunction screens" section.

Hybrid system
Hybrid4 mode selector
The selector allows the user to choose between 4 drive modes for the vehicle.
Turn the dial to the ri
ght or left; the mode selected is confirmed by illumination of the corresponding indicator.
ZEVmode, to force electric runnin
g.Spor
tmode, to make use of the maximum
performance of the vehicle.
4WDmode, to force the vehicle into 4x4 mode.
AUTOmode, for normal use and optimised fuelconsumption.
On star ting the vehicle: with the gear selector in position N, press the brake pedal and press
the STA R T/STOP button to activate the hybrid system.
This lamp comes on when the vehicle is ready
to move off ("Auto" mode is on by default) andso the driver can press the accelerator.
This lamp comes on more or less instantly but may take a few seconds in some cases (inparticular, the time needed for pre-heating the
Diesel engine in cold weather or, for example,
in energy economy mode, ...).
Ready lamp
With the vehicle stationary, press the STA R T/STOP button and check that the Readylamp is off when leaving thevehicle, other wise the hybrid system will still be active.
For more information, refer to the section on "Underbonnet precautions / warnings".

Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, whencold, referring to the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in par ticular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and obser ve the schedule of operations recommended by themanufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after the3 rd
cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is onlyafter the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; placethe heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,as close as possible to the rear seats.Limit the loads carried in the vehicle andreduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
Limit the causes of excess
consumption

With the hybrid system active, Ready
lamp on, parking brakereleased: - Place the gear selector in position N.- Switch off the engine (press on STA R T/STOP). The parking brake is applied automatically and the Ready
lamp goes off inthe instrument panel.- Switch on the ignition again (press on START/STOP) without your foot on the brake pedal. The Ready
lamp remains off. - Release the parking brake using the manual control on thecentre console, while keeping your foot on the brake pedal. - Switch off the ignition (press on STA R T/STOP without your foot on the brake pedal) checking that the parking brake
remains released.
If the Diesel engine is not running, it restar ts.If the Diesel engine is running, it remains running without timelimit.
With the hybrid system active, Readylamp on, parking brakereleased: - Place the gear selector in position N(Auto or Sport mode). - Press the brake pedal then the ECO OFF button.

Monitoring
Engine oil level indicator
Oil level incorrect
This is indicated by a message in the instrument panel screen.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to avoid damage to the engine.
Oil level indicator fault
This is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel screen. Contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Dipstick
Refer to the "Checks" section to locate the
dipstick and the oil filler cap on your engine.
System which informs the driver whether theengine oil level is correct or not.
This information is indicated for a few secondswhen the ignition is switched on, after theservice information.
The level read will only be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine has been off for more than30 minutes.
There are
2 marks on the dipstick:
- A= max; never exceed this
level,
-
B= min; top up the level via
the oil filler cap, using the grade of oil suited to your engine.
Oil level correct
This is indicated by a message in the instrument panel screen.
