Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting.
During acceleration change up early.
With an ETG electronic gearbox, give preference to automatic (Easy)
mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
Control the use of your electrical
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it
by opening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents
open.
Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the
temperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window
blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regulation, as
soon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps when the level of light
does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter; your
vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices
(film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting the
consumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
The gear shift indicator invites you engage the most suitable gear: as
soon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it
straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an ETG electronic gearbox, this indicator
appears only in manual mode.
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 CO
2
emissions and also helps reduce the background traffic noise.

Low fuel levelfixed. When it first comes on there remains
approximately 5 litres of fuel in the
tank. You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid running
out of fuel.
This warning lamp will come on every time the ignition
is switched on, until a sufficient addition of fuel is
made.
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 35 litres.
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel as
this could damage the emission control and injection
systems.
Battery charge fixed. The battery charging circuit has a
fault (dirty or loose terminals, slack or
cut alternator belt, ...). Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Front seat belts flashing accompanied
by an audible signal. The driver has not fastened or has
unfastened their seat belt.
The front passenger has unfastened
their seat belt. Pull the strap then insert the tongue in the buckle.

Ensure that no person or object
prevents the seat slide from returning to
its initial position.
Check that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly so as to not impede access for
passengers to the rear seats.

F Pull this control toward you to fold the seat
back and move the seat for ward.
When returning the seat to its initial position,
guide it back until the seat and backrest lock
into place.
Wit the engine running, the front seats can be
heated separately.

The temperature is controlled automatically.
The seat heating function is deactivated about
two minutes after switching off the ignition. To
reactivate it, switch the ignition on and press
the control switch again. Switch the seat heating off as soon
as it is no longer needed, as reducing
the vehicle's electrical current demand
reduces fuel consumption.

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.

Stop & Start (e-VTi 68 engine)
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
-

w

hen stationary, in neutral, and you
release the clutch pedal.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the button. For smoother operation, during
parking manoeuvres STOP mode is
not available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
vehicle's systems, such as for example,
braking, power steering...
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked principally when:
- t he driver's door is open,
-

t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-

t
he engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
-

d
emisting is active,
-

s
ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
vehicle stopped on a steep gradient, high
altitude...) where the engine is needed to
assure control of a system.
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.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
Stop & Start time counters
A partial time counter counts the periods in
STOP mode during a journey.
It is displayed in the trip computer once the
Stop & Start acts.
Press one of the screen management buttons
to return to the previous display.
A global time counter counts the periods in
STOP mode since the last reset.
When it is displayed, press one of the screen
management buttons to reset the counter.

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
The under-inflation detection system
does not replace the vigilance or the
responsibility of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous condition
(high loading, high speed, long journey).
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label.
See the "Identification markings"
section.
Tyre pressures should be checked
when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of
less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate
speeds).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to
the pressures shown on the label. Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
Hazard warning lamps
A visual warning by means of the direction
indicators to alert other road users to a vehicle
breakdown, towing or accident.
