Indicator and warning lamps
Certain warning lamps may come on in
one of two modes: fixed (continuous) or
flashing.
Only by relating the type of illumination
to the operation of the vehicle can it
be determined whether the situation is
normal or a fault has occurred. In the
event of a fault, the illumination of the
warning lamp may be accompanied by
a message.
Refer to the tables in the following
pages for more information.
Visual indicators informing the driver that a system is in operation, switched off or has a fault.When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few
seconds in the instrument panel when the
vehicle's ignition is switched on.
When the engine is started, these same
warning lamps should go off.
If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the
section on the warning lamp concerned.
Associated warnings
The switching on of certain warning lamps may
be accompanied by an audible signal and a
message.
The warning lamps may come on continuously
(fixed) or flash.
When switching on the ignition, the
displays in the instrument panel appear
dynamically and progressively. This is
normal operation.

Trip computer, a few definitions
Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still be
travelled with the fuel remaining in
the tank (related to the average fuel
consumption over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled).
This value may vary following a change
in the style of driving or the relief,
resulting in a significant change in the
current fuel consumption.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least
5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km). If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated over the last few seconds.
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated since the last trip
computer reset.
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
Calculated since the last trip
computer reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
Calculated since the last trip
computer reset.
Stop & Start time counter
(minutes / seconds or hours /
minutes)
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time
counter calculates the time spent in STOP
mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on.

In cold weather with the engine cold,
the air flow is increased gradually until
the system has warmed up, in order
to limit the delivery of cold air into the
passenger compartment.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than the comfort value setting, there
is no need to alter the value displayed
in order to reach more quickly the
required level of comfort. The system
compensates automatically and
corrects the temperature difference as
quickly as possible.
This setting is associated with AUTO mode
only. However, on deactivation of AUTO mode,
the last setting used remains on.
Changing the setting does not reactivate AUTO
mode if deactivated. To change the current setting press the button
for the desired mode: "Soft ": provides soft and quiet
operation by limiting air flow.
" Normal ": offers the best
compromise between a comfortable
temperature and quiet operation
(default setting).
" Fast ": provides strong and effective
air f low.

with the button. For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionalities of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...

- the driver's door is open,
-

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

t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start by the

This operation is perfectly normal.
The Stop & Start

system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
