Driving
This gearbox has two driving modes:
- an automated mode for automatic control
of the gears by the gearbox and therefore
without any action on the part of the driver,
- a manual mode for sequential changing of
the gears by the driver using the steering
mounted controls or the gear lever.
CVT gearbox
It includes the following controls:
- a gear lever 1
on the centre console for
selecting the driving mode, reverse gear
and neutral or for changing gear in manual
mode,
- a "-"
steering mounted control paddle 2
for
manual downward gear changes,
- a "+/OFF"
steering mounted control
paddle 3
for manual upward gear changes.
The six-speed automatic gearbox offers a choice between the comfort of automatic regulation or the pleasure of manual gear changing.
The mode can be changed at any time.

Manual gear changing
In the automated mode, you can take over
control temporarily at any time using the
steering mounted controls.
The use of these controls permits manual
selection of the gears in situations which
require a faster change down than that offered
in automated mode (arrival at a roundabout,
exit from a car park with a steep gradient,
over taking...).
The gearbox engages the gear requested if
the engine speed permits it. The gear engaged
appears.
To return to the automated mode, do one of the
following:
- press the back of the "+/OFF"
steering
mounted control 3
for approximately
2 seconds,
- move the gear lever quickly towards
position +/-
and then return it to position D
,
- stop the vehicle.
Stopping the vehicle
Operating fault
With the ignition on, if the message "Slow
down"
or "Service required"
appears in
the instrument panel screen, this indicates a
gearbox malfunction.
When a message is displayed, carry out the
following operations:
- slow down and stop your vehicle in a safe
place,
- place the lever in position P
and let the
engine run,
- open the bonnet to allow the engine to
cool.
If the message disappears for a long period,
you can set off again.
If the message remains displayed or appears
frequently, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop without delay. Before switching off the engine, you must place
the gear lever in position P
.
You must apply the parking brake to immobilise
the vehicle.
