STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the
engine temporarily on standby - ST OP
mode - during stops in the traffic (red
lights, traffic jams, or other...). The
engine restarts automatically - START
mode - as soon as you want to move
off. The restart takes place instantly,
quickly and silently.
Perfect 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
The "ECO" warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel and the engine goes
into standby:
-

with a manual gearbox
, at speeds
below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you
put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal,
-

with
a 6-speed electronic
gearbox, at speeds below 5 mph
(8 km/h), when you press the brake
pedal or put the gear lever into
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 rests itself to zero every time
the ignition is switched on with the key.
With a 6-speed 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.
n
ever refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off
the ignition with the key. Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP mode is not invoked when:
-

the driver's door is open,
-

the driver's seat belt is not
fastened,
-

the vehicle has not exceeded

6 mph (10 km/h) since the last
engine start using the key,
-
the engine is needed to maintain
a comfortable temperature in the
passenger compartment,
-

demisting is on,
-

some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature,
braking assistance, ambient
temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a
system.
In this case, the
"ECO"
warning lamp flashes for a
few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.

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
instrument panel.The system is reactivated
automatically at every new start
using the key.
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction
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 warning
lamps in the instrument panel come
on. It is then necessary to switch off
the ignition and start the engine again
using the key.
Maintenance
Before working 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 specific
battery with a special specification
and technology (reference numbers
available from a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by
CITROËN
introduces the risk of
malfunction of the system.
The Stop & Start system makes
use of advanced technology. All
work on this type of battery must
be done only by a CITR
o Ë n dealer or
a qualified workshop.

A FEW DRIVING
RECOMMENDA
TIONS
observe the driving regulations at all
times and remain vigilant whatever the
traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and
keep your hands on the wheel so that
you are ready to react at any time to
any eventuality
.
On a long journey, a break every two
hours is strongly recommended.
In difficult weather, drive smoothly,
anticipate the need to brake and
increase the distance from other
vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving
on flooded roads, as this could cause
serious damage to the engine or
gearbox, as well as to the electrical
systems of your vehicle. If you are obliged to drive through
water:
-

check that the depth of water does
not exceed 15 cm, taking account
of waves that might be generated
by other users,
-

deactivate the Stop & Start system,
-

drive as slowly as possible without
stallin

g. In all cases, do not exceed
6 mph (10 km/h),
- do not stop and do not switch of f
the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon
as circumstances allow, make several
light brake applications to dry the brake
discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle,
contact a CITR
o Ë n dealer or a
qualified workshop. Never drive with the parking brake
applied - Risk of overheating and
damage to the braking system!
Do not park or run the engine when
stationary in areas where inflammable
substances and materials (dry grass,
dead leaves...) might come into contact
with the hot exhaust system - Risk of
fire!
n
ever leave a vehicle
unsupervised with the engine
running. If you have to leave
your vehicle with the engine running,
apply the parking brake and put the
gearbox into neutral or position N or P,
depending on the type of gearbox.
Important!

Cooling system
Only use the fluid recommended by the
manufacturer.
Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging
your engine.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can
operate with the ignition key removed
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by 1/4 of a turn to
release the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and top
up the level with coolant.
If fluid has to be added frequently,
this indicates a fault which must be
checked by a CITROËN dealer as
soon as possible.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground with the engine cold. Unscrew
the cap integrated with the gauge and
check the level which must be between
the MIN and MAX marks.In order to regenerate the filter, you
are advised to drive at a speed higher
than 40 mph (60 km/h) for at least five
minutes as soon as possible, when
traffic conditions permit (until the
message disappears and the service
warning lamp goes off).
d

uring regeneration of the particle
emission filter, the noise of a relay
operating may be heard under the
dashboard.
If the message is still displayed and
if the service warning lamp remains
on, contact a CITR
o Ë n dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Topping up
The level must be between the MIN
and MAX marks on the expansion
bottle. If more than 1 litre of fluid is
required to top up the level, have the
system checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you use
products of the CITROËN range.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fluid must not be topped
up or replaced with plain water.
Capacity of the screenwash reservoir:
approximately 3 litres.
If your vehicle is fitted with headlamp
washers, the capacity of the reservoir
is 6 litres.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle
filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
Waste products
avoid prolonged contact of used oil
with the skin.
Brake fluid is harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fluid
or coolant into drains or into the ground
but into the containers dedicated to this
use at a CITR
o Ë n dealer (France) or
an authorised waste disposal site.
The minimum level of this additive
is indicated by lighting of the service
warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
screen.
When this occurs with the engine
running it is due to the start of
saturation of the particle filter
(exceptionally prolonged urban type
driving conditions: low speed, long
traffic jams, ...).
