FUEL GAUGE
The fuel level is tested each time the key is
turned to the "ignition on" position.
The gauge is positioned on:
- F (full):
the capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 45 litres
.
- E (empty):
the reserve is now being
used, the warning lamp comes on
continuously.
The reserve when the warning first comes
on is approximately 6 litres.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
The needle is positioned between C
(cold) and H (hot):
normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic
conditions, the needle may move close to
the red graduations.
- wait approximately 15 minutes to allow
the engine to cool down in order to check
the level and top it up if necessary. The
cooling system is pressurised. In order to
avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the
cap by two turns to allow the pressure to
drop.
When the pressure has dropped, check the
level and remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red zone,
contact a CITROËN or a qualified workshop. EMISSION CONTROL
EOBD (European On Board Diagnosis) is a
diagnostics system which meets the exhaust
emissions standards for:
- CO (carbon monoxide),
- HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
- NOx (nitrous oxides) or particles detected
by oxygen sensors placed upstream and
downstream of the catalytic converters.
Refer to the "Levels" section of
chapter 7. Refer to the "Levels" section of
chapter 7.
The driver is warned of any
fault with this emission control
system by flashing of this specific
warning lamp in the instrument
panel.
What you should do if the needle
enters the red zone, or if the warning
lamp comes on:
- stop immediately, switch off the ignition.
The cooling fan may continue to operate
for a certain time up to approximately
10 minutes.

Access
OPENING FROM THE OUTSIDE
Driver's door
Use the remote control to unlock from
the outside.
Pull the handle towards you.
If the remote control does not work, insert
the metal part of the key in the lock on the
driver's side.
Sliding side door
Pull the handle towards you then towards
the rear.
Slide the door fully to pass the point of
resistance (Light van) or to engage the latch
which holds the door in the open position
(Combi).
When the fuel filler flap is open, a
safety system checks the sliding of the
side door (Combi).
Tailgate (Combi)
After unlocking the vehicle using the remote
control or the key, pull the central handle
and lift the tailgate. If your vehicle is parked on a slope,
guide the side door as it slides. The
door could open or close more quickly due
to the incline of the ground, risking injury.
As a safety precaution and to guarantee
correct operation, do not drive with the
sliding side door open.

GEAR EFFICIENCY INDICATOR *
System which reduces fuel consumption
by advising the driver to change gear on
vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox.
Operation
The system intervenes only when driving
economically.
The gear change recommendations must
not be considered compulsory, as the
configuration of the road, the amount of
traffic and safety remain determining factors
when choosing the best gear. Therefore,
the driver remains responsible for deciding
whether or not to follow the advice given by
the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
Example:
- You are in third gear.
- You press the accelerator pedal
moderately.
- The system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear, if appropriate.
The information appears in the form of the
indicator SHIFT
in the instrument panel
screen, accompanied by an up arrow for
changing up or a down arrow for changing
down.
In the case of driving which
makes particular demands on the
performance of the engine (firm pressure
on the accelerator pedal, for example,
when overtaking...), the system will not
recommend a gear change.

According to engine.

Gearbox and steering wheel
Stopping the vehicle
To switch off the engine, with your foot on
the brake pedal, you should:
- select first gear or reverse.
- apply the parking brake to immobilise the
vehicle.
- switch off the ignition.
Temporarily changing gear in AUTO mode
You can also request a gear change using
the gear lever.
This action does not deactivate the
automated mode, but allows temporary
use of the sequential mode functions (for
example: for overtaking another vehicle...).
"AUTO"
remains displayed in the instrument
panel screen.
"ECO" economy programme
This programme works with the automated
mode to reduce fuel consumption.
Press button E
to activate the programme.
Sequential mode
After using the automated mode, you can
return to the sequential mode by selecting
position A
/ M
again.
"E"
appears in the instrument
panel screen, next to "AUTO"
and the gear selected by the
gearbox.
The gearbox then selects the best gear for
the speed of the vehicle, the engine speed
and the accelerator pedal position to reduce
fuel consumption.
"AUTO"
disappears and the
gears engaged appear in
succession in the instrument
panel screen.
It is not necessary to take your foot off the
accelerator pedal to change the gear.
The gear change requests are only carried
out if the engine speed permits it. The
system gives an audible signal if a gear
change is not possible.
At low speeds, when approaching a stop
or traffic lights for example, the gearbox
changes down to first gear automatically.
Release the brake pedal after the display
of the gear engaged has disappeared
from the instrument panel screen.
Never leave the vehicle with the
gearbox in neutral (position N
). In this
case, there is an audible signal on switching
off the ignition (ignition key in the STOP
position).

- with a manual gearbox
, with the vehicle
stationary, put the gear lever into neutral,
then release the clutch pedal,
- with an electronic gearbox
, with the
vehicle stationary, hold the brake pedal
down.
Special cases: STOP mode unavailable
The STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the driver’s door is open,
- the driver’s seat belt is not fastened,
- the heated rear screen is on,
- the windscreen wiper is on fast wipe,
- reverse gear is engaged,
- some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature, particle
filter regeneration, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a system.
In this case, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by the "S"
warning
lamp, which flashes for a few
seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode -
during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic
jams, or other...). The engine restarts
automatically - START mode - as soon as
you want to move off. The restart takes
place instantly, quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions and offers the comfort of
complete silence when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "S"
warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby: Automatic stopping of the engine is
only possible after the vehicle has
exceed a speed of about 6 mph (10 km/h),
to avoid repeated stopping of the engine
when driving slowly.
In the STOP mode Stop & Start, hill
start assist is inactive.
Never leave your vehicle with out first
turning off the ignition with the key.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key.
