Gear efficiency indicator*
On vehicle fitted with a manual
gearbox, the arrow may be
accompanied by the gear
recommended.
With an electronic or automatic
gearbox, the system is only active in
manual mode.
* Depending on engine.
On BlueHDi Diesel 150 versions with manual
gearbox, the system may suggest changing into
neutral so that the engine can go into standby
(STOP mode with Stop & Start), in certain
driving conditions. In this case, N is displayed
in the instrument panel. System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one (or more) gear(s). You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
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. Example:
-

Y
ou are in third gear.
-

Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.
-

T
he system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear.
The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow.
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.
driving

Stop & StartThe Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
T he 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.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
With an electronic gearbox, 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
functionality of the vehicle, such as
braking, power steering, for example.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key or the "START/STOP"
button.
The
"ECO" warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
-

w

ith a manual gearbox
, at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h), or vehicle stationary with
PureTech 130 petrol and BlueHDi 115 and
120 Diesel versions, when you put the gear
lever into neutral and release the clutch
pedal,
-

w

below 5 mph (8 km/h), when you press
the brake pedal or place the gear lever in
position N .
-

w

ith an automatic gearbox, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or place the gear lever in position N .If your vehicle is fitted with the
system, a time counter calculates
the sum of the periods in STOP
mode during a journey. It resets
itself to zero every time the
ignition is switched on with the
key or the "START/STOP" button.
STOP mode is not invoked when:
-
t
he vehicle is on a steep slope (up or
d ow n),
-
t
he driver's door is open,
-
t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,

lamp comes on or an alert message
is displayed asking you to depress the
clutch pedal to restart the engine.
In this case the "ECO" warning
lamp flashes for few seconds, then
goes

off.
This operation is perfectly normal. For safety reasons or to ensure smooth
operation, START mode is invoked

Running out of fuel (Diesel)
On vehicles fitted with Diesel engines, the fuel
system must be primed if you run out of fuel.
For all versions other than BlueHDi, refer to the
corresponding engine compartment view.1.6 Hdi engine
If the tank on your vehicle is fitted with
a misfuel prevention device, refer to the
"Misfuel prevention (Diesel)" section.

Checks

Once the AdBlue® tank is empty,
a s
ystem required by regulations
prevents starting of the engine.
If the SCR

is faulty, the level of
emissions from your vehicle will no
longer meet the Euro 6 standard: you
vehicle becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault
with the SCR system, you must go
to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible: after a
running distance of 650 miles
(1 100 km), a system will be triggered
automatically to prevent engine
starting.
AdBlue® additive and SCR system
for BlueHDi Diesel engines
To assure respect for the environment and
conformity with the new Euro 6 emissions
standard, without adversely affecting the
per formance or fuel consumption of Diesel
engines, CITROËN has taken the decision to
equip its vehicles with an effective system that
associates SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction)
with a particle filter (FAP) for the treatment of
exhaust gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using an additive called AdBlue® containing urea, a
catalytic converter turns up to 85% of nitrous oxides
(NOx) into nitrogen and water, which are harmless
to health and the environment.
The AdBlue® additive is held in a special
tank located under the boot at the rear of
the vehicle. It has a capacity of 17 litres: this
provides a driving range of about 12 500 miles
(20 000 km), after which an alert is triggered
warning you when the reserve remaining is
enough for just 1 500 miles (2 400 km).
During each scheduled service of your vehicle
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop,
the AdBlue
® additive tank is refilled in order to
allow normal operation of the SCR system.
If the estimated mileage between two services
is greater than 12 500 miles (20 000 km), we
recommend that you go to a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop to have the necessary
top-up carried out.

249
The engine start prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank
is empty.
Range indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reserve or after
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on, an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented.
In the event of simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range figure is
the one displayed.
In the event of the risk of non-starting related to a lack of AdBlue®
Range greater than 1 500 miles (2 400 km)
When the ignition is switched on, no
information on range is displayed automatically
in the instrument panel.
With the type 2 instrument panel,
pressing this button temporarily
displays the driving range.
Above 3 000 miles (5 000 km), the value is not
specified.
Type 1 instrument panel
Remaining range between 350 and 1500 miles (600 and 2 400 km)
When switching on the ignition, the UREA
warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an
audible signal and the temporary display in
the instrument panel of "NO START IN" and
a distance, indicating the remaining range
expressed in miles or kilometres before engine
starting is prevented - (For example "NO
START IN 900 miles" means that "Starting will
be prevented in 900 miles).
When driving, this display appears every
150
miles (300 km) until the additive tank has
been topped-up.
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the AdBlue
® tank topped-up.
You can also top-up the tank yourself.
Refer to the "Topping-up" section.
