2014 Citroen C1 Low fuel

81
System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the most appropriate gear.
Gear shift indicator
Operation
Example:
- Y ou are in third gear.
-

Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.
-

T
he system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear.
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to change gear.
The gear engagement recommendations must
not be considered compulsory. In fact, 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.
The information appears in the
instrument panel in the form of an
ar row.
The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (slope, load,
...) and
the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking,
...).
The system never suggests:
-

e
ngaging first gear,
-
enga

ging reverse gear.
With an ETG electronic gearbox, the
system is only active in manual mode.
With the VTi 82 engine, the system only
suggests when to change up.

Fuel tank
Low fuel levelRefuelling
When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp comes on and the
last bar flashes, accompanied by an
audible signal.
You have approximately 5 litres remaining.
In certain driving conditions and depending on the
engine, the distance which can be travelled with the
fuel remaining may be less than 30 miles (50 km).
When the frequency of the flashing increases, you
have approximately 3 litres remaining .
To refuel in complete safety:
F
Y ou must stop the engine and switch off
the ignition (ignition in "LOCK" position
or "OFF" mode) .
F

P
ull the control on the lower dashboard,
driver's side, to release the filler flap.
F

O
pen the fuel filler flap.
If you run out of fuel, the emission
control system warning lamp may come
on in the instrument panel. It will go off
automatically after the engine has been
started a few times. Refuelling must only be done with the engine
stopped and the ignition switched off
( ignition
switch in the " LOCK" position or " OFF" mode).
The capacity of the fuel tank is approximately 35 litres.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.
A label on the inside of the flap reminds you
which type of fuel to use.
There may be an inrush of air when removing
the filler cap. This vacuum is per fectly normal
and results from the sealing of the fuel system.

The petrol engines are compatible with
E10 type petrol biofuels (containing
10 % ethanol), conforming to European
standards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol)
are reserved exclusively for vehicles marketed
for the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex
vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must
comply with European standard EN 15293.

When you fill the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut- off of the pump ; this could
cause malfunctions .
Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter
that reduces harmful exhaust emissions.
The filler neck has a narrower aperture that
only admits nozzles on pumps delivering
unleaded petrol .
