Manual gear changing




When the vehicle has moved off, select
position M
to change to manual mode.


Operate the +
or -
steering mounted control
paddles.

A
UTO
disappears and the gears
engaged appear successively in the
instrument panel screen. The gear change requests are only carried out
if the engine speed permits.
It is not necessary to release the accelerator
during gear changes.
When braking or slowing down, the gearbox
changes down automatically to permit
acceleration in the correct gear.
This selective gear change mode enables you
to overtake, for example, while still remaining in
automatic mode.



Operate the +
or -
steering mounted control
paddle.
The gearbox engages the gear requested if the
engine speed permits. AUTO
is still displayed
in the instrument panel.
After a few moments without any action on
the controls, the gearbox resumes automatic
control of the gears.



Manual mode


At very low speed, if reverse gear is
requested, this will only be taken into
account when the vehicle is immobilised
(foot on the brake). A warning lamp
appears in the instrument panel screen.

On sharp acceleration in manual mode,
the gearbox will not change up unless
the driver acts on the gear lever or the
steering mounted paddles.
Never select neutral N
while the vehicle
is moving.
Only engage reverse gear R
when the
vehicle is immobilised with the brake
pedal pressed.

Under-inflation alert


The aler t is given by the fixed illumination
of this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal, and depending on
equipment, the display of a message.


In the event of a problem on one of the tyres,
the symbol or the message appears, according
to equipment, to identify it.



Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering
movements or harsh brake applications.


Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.


In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (according to equipment),
or


if you have a compressor, the one in the
temporary puncture repair kit for example,
check the four tyre pressures when cold,
or


if it is not possible to check the tyre
pressures at the time, drive carefully at
reduced speed.

The alert is maintained until the tyre or
tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired
or replaced.
The spare wheel (space-saver type or a
steel rim) does not have a sensor.


The loss of pressure detected does not
always lead to visible deformation of the
tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.


Operating fault


The flashing and then fixed
illumination of the under-inflation
warning lamp accompanied by the
illumination of the "ser vice" warning
lamp indicates a fault with the system.

This alert is also displayed when one or
more wheels is not fitted with a sensor
(for example, a space-saver or steel
spare wheel).

Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked or,
following the repair of a puncture, to have the
original wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is
not assured.

129Driving

The system is reactivated automatically
at every new start using the START/
STOP button.



Reactivation

Press the "ECO OFF"
switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off and a
message in the screen.

Operating fault

In the event of a fault with the system, the
"ECO OFF"
switch warning lamp flashes then
comes on continuously.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the vehicle
may stall.
All of the instrument panel warning lamps come
on.
Depending on version, an alert message may also
be displayed, asking you to place the gear lever in
position N
and put your foot on the brake pedal.
It is then necessary to switch off the ignition and
start the engine again using the "START/STOP"
button.
Before doing anything under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid any risk of injury
resulting from automatic operation of
START mode.
This system requires a 12 V battery with a
special specification and technology (reference
numbers available from CITROËN dealers).
Fitting a battery not listed by CITROËN
introduces the risk of malfunction of the
system.
For charging, use a 12 V charger and do not
reverse the polarity.

Maintenance


The Stop & Start system makes use of
advanced technology. For any work on
the system go to a qualified workshop
with the skills and equipment required,
which a CITROËN dealer is able to
provide.

Head-up display


System which projects information onto a
transparent strip in the field of vision of the
driver so that they do not have to take their
eyes off the road.
This system operates when the engine is
running and the settings are stored when the
ignition is switched off.

The strip retracts automatically 3 seconds after
switching off the engine except in STOP mode
of Stop & Start.


Activation / Deactivation




With the engine running, adjust the
brightness of the information using
button 3
:


- towards the rear to increase the
brightness,

- towards the front to decrease the
brightness.





Brightness adjustment


We recommend that adjustments are
only made using these buttons when
the vehicle is stationary.
When stationary or while driving, no
objects should be placed around the
transparent strip (or on its cover) to
avoid blocking the strip output and
preventing its correct operation.

In certain extreme weather conditions
(rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, ...)
the head-up display may not be legible
or may suffer temporary inter ference.
Some sunglasses may hamper reading
of the information.
To clean the transparent strip, use a
clean, soft cloth (such as a spectacles
cloth or microfibre cloth). Do not use
a dry or abrasive cloth or detergent or
solvent products as these could scratch
the strip or damage the anti-reflection
coating.



Height adjustment




With the engine running, adjust the display
to the required height using button 2
:


- towards the rear to move the display up,

- towards the front to move the display
down.

Speed limiter
System which prevents the vehicle from
exceeding the speed programmed by the driver.
When the programmed speed limit is reached,
pressing the accelerator pedal no longer has
any effect.
The speed limiter cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to
respect speed limits, nor can it replace
the need for vigilance and responsibility
on the part of the driver. The functions of this system are grouped
together on the steering mounted controls.
