Comfort
Rear screen demist - defrost
Switching on
The rear screen demisting/defrosting can only
operate when the engine is running.
Switching off
The demisting/defrosting switches off
automatically to prevent an excessive
consumption of current.
)
It is possible to stop the demisting/
defrosting operation before it is switched
off automatically by pressing the button
again. The indicator lamp associated with
the button goes off.
)
Switch off the demisting/defrosting of the
rear screen and door mirrors as soon as
appropriate, as lower current consumption
results in reduced fuel consumption.
The control button is located on the air conditioning system control panel.
)
Press this button to demist/defrost
the rear screen and (depending
on version) the door mirrors. The
indicator lamp associated with the
button comes on.

Driving
Gear shift indicator *
System which reduces fuel consumption by advising the driver to change up on vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox.
Operation
*
According to engine.
The symbol appears in the
instrument panel suggesting that you
change up.
In the case of driving which makes
particular demands on the per formance
of the engine (firm pressure on the
accelerator pedal, for example, when
overtaking...), the system will not
recommend a gear change.
The system never suggests:
- engaging reverse gear,
- engaging a lower gear.
The system inter venes only when driving
economically.
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one or more gears. You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
The gear recommendations should 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.

Stop & Start (Auto Stop & Go) function
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "AS &G"
warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel or the instrument
panel screen and the engine goes into
standby after a few seconds:
- with a manual gearbox
, with the vehicle
stationary and your foot on the brake, when
you put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key or the START/STOP
button.
When the engine is stopped
automatically, the operation of certain
vehicle systems, such as for example,
braking, power steering... are modified.
Ta k e c a r e
.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,
- the bonnet is open,
- the vehicle has not exceeded 3 mph
(5 km/h) since the last engine start,
- the vehicle has restarted less than
10 seconds ago,
- the engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
- demisting is active,
- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
- the "AS &G"
warning lamp is
flashing in the instrument panel.
This operation is per fectly normal.
The Stop & Start (Auto Stop & Go) function puts the engine temporarily into standby during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
The engine restarts automatically as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start (Auto Stop & Go) function reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.

Checks
When the symbol begins to flash
rapidly
(approximately twice per
second), there is not much fuel
remaining in your tank (approximately
5 litres).
You must fill the tank to avoid running
out of fuel.
Fuel tank
Capacity of the tank: approximately 60 litres.
Low fuel level
Filling
A label, affixed on the inside of the flap,
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used
according to your engine.
More than 5 litres of fuel must be added in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge.
Location of the cap
When the low fuel level is reached,
this indication appears in the
instrument panel screen. When it first
comes on, you have approximately
10 litres of fuel remaining.
1.
Opening the filler flap.
2.
Removing the filler cap.
3.
Hooking the filler cap.
To fill the tank safely:
)
the engine must be switched off,
)
pull the control A
located at the bottom left
of the driver's seat to release the fuel filler
flap,
)
open the fuel filler flap B
,
)
turn the filler cap C
to the left,
)
remove the filler cap C
,
)
fill the tank, but do not continue after
the 3
rd cut- off of the nozzle
; this could
cause malfunctions.
When you have filled the tank:
)
refit the filler cap, inserting the upper part
first,
)
screw in the filler cap to the right,
)
close the flap.
Ensure that the fuel filler flap is closed
correctly. This symbol indicates that the fuel
tank cap is located on the left-hand
side of the vehicle.
Opening the cap may cause an inrush of air.
This vacuum, which is completely normal, is
caused by the sealing of the fuel system. The symbol flashes slowly
(approximately
once per second).

Checks
Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are per fectly compatible
with E10 or E24 type petrol biofuels
(containing 10 % or 24 % 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.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed
to run on fuels containing up to 100 % ethanol
(E100 type).
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are per fectly compatible
with biofuels which conform to current and
future European standards (Diesel fuel
which complies with standard EN 590 mixed
with a biofuel which complies with standard
EN 14214) available at the pumps (containing
up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain Diesel
engines; however, this use is subject to strict
application of the special ser vicing conditions.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).
1.6 litre petrol engines, even though they have
been designed to operate on 95 RON petrol,
can accept 90 RON petrol without engine
adjustments, but with a slight deterioration in
performance.
2.0 litre petrol engines can accept 90 RON or
higher petrol.

Checks
Running out of fuel (Diesel)
On vehicles fitted with the 1.6 litre HDi 110
engine, the fuel system must be manually
primed if you run out of fuel; refer to the
corresponding Diesel engine compartment
view.
1.6 litre HDi engine
)
Fill the fuel tank with at least five litres of
diesel.
)
Open the bonnet.
)
If necessary, unclip the styling cover for
access to the priming pump.
)
Squeeze and release the priming pump
repeatedly until resistance is felt (there
may be resistance at the first press).
)
Operate the starter until the engine starts
(if the engine does not start at the first
attempt, wait around 15 seconds before
trying again).
)
If the engine does not start after a few
attempts, operate the priming pump again
then start the engine.
)
Clip the styling cover back in place.
)
Close the bonnet.
