Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2
emissions.
Eco-driving
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. During acceleration change up early.
With
an automatic or electronic gearbox, give preference
to
automatic mode and avoid pressing the accelerator
pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The
gear shift indicator invites you engage the most
suitable
gear: as soon as the indication is displayed in the
instrument
panel, follow it straight away.
For
vehicles fitted with an electronic or automatic gearbox,
this
indicator appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine
braking rather than the brake pedal, and press the
accelerator
progressively.
These
practices contribute
towards
a reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions
and
also
helps
reduce
the
background traffic
noise.
If
your
vehicle
has
cruise
control,
make
use
of
the system
at
speeds
above
25
mph
(40
km/h)
when
the
traffic is
flowing
well.
Control the use of your electrical
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows and air vents
before
using the air conditioning.
Above
30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the
air
vents open.
Remember
to make use of equipment that can help keep
the
temperature in the passenger compartment down
(sunroof
and window blinds...).
Switch
off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic
regulation,
as soon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch
off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not
automatic.
Switch
off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch
off the headlamps and front foglamps when the
level
of light does not require their use.
Avoid
running the engine before moving off, particularly in
winter;
your vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As
a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia
devices
(film, music, video game...), you will contribute
towards
limiting the consumption of electrical energy, and
so
of fuel.
d
isconnect your portable devices before leaving the
vehicle.

Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest
items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the
rear
seats.
Limit
the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind
resistance
(roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...).
Use
a roof box in preference.
Remove
roof bars and roof racks after use.
At
the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your
summer
tyres.
Observe the recommendations on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry
out this check in particular:
-
before
a long journey,
-
at each change of season,
-
after
a long period out of use.
d
on't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or
caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil
filter,
air filter, passenger compartment filter...) and
observe
the schedule of operations recommended in the
manufacturer's
service schedule.
With
a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is
faulty
your vehicle becomes polluting; go to a CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified workshop without delay to have the
emissions
of nitrous oxides brought back to the legal level.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of
the
nozzle to avoid any overflow.
At
the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first
1
800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel
consumption
settle down to a consistent average.

Don't forget
When leaving the vehicle, check that
the lighting is of
f and nothing of value
is
visible.
a
s a safety precaution (with children
on
board), remove the key from the
ignition when leaving the vehicle, even
for
a short time.
Good practice
Do not make any modifications to the electronic immobiliser system.
Operating
the remote control, even
when
it is in your pocket, may result in
involuntary
unlocking of the doors.
The
simultaneous use of other
high
frequency equipment (mobile
telephones,
domestic alarms…), may
interfere with the operation of the
remote
control temporarily.
The
remote control does not operate
while
the key is in the ignition, even if
the
ignition is off.
ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER
If you lose your keys
Visit a CITRo Ë n dealer with the
vehicle's
V5 registration certificate and
your
identification document.
a CITR
o Ë n dealer will be able
to
retrieve the key code and
the transponder code so that a
replacement
key can be ordered.When purchasing a second-hand
vehicle,
have the keys memorised by
a CITR
o Ë n dealer, so as to be sure
that the keys in your possession are
the only ones that can be used to start
the
vehicle.
ALARM
If fitted on your vehicle, this provides two
types of protection:
-
exterior
protection: it sounds if a
front/rear
door or the bonnet is
opened.
-
interior
protection: it sounds if
the
volume inside the passenger
compartment
changes (breaking of
a
window or a movement inside the
vehicle).
If
your
vehicle
is
fitted
with
a
separation
partition, the interior protection is not
active
in the load space.
Locking the vehicle with
complete alarm
Setting the alarm
- Switch off the ignition and get out of
the vehicle.

This
device locks the engine supply
system.
It is activated automatically
when
the key is removed from the
ignition.
a
fter the ignition is switched on, a
dialogue
is established between the key
and
the electronic immobiliser system.
The
metal part of the key must be
unfolded correctly for correct dialogue
to

SLIDING SIDE DOORS
From the outside
Pull the handle towards you then
towards the rear and open the side
door guiding the rearward sliding to
beyond the point of resistance to hold
it open.
A
mechanical system prevents opening
of the left-hand side door when the fuel
filler
flap is open.
From the inside
Unlock the side door using this handle and open it, guiding the rearward
sliding to the point of resistance. Pass
this
point to hold the door open.
Close the side door using the handle
to start the sliding and pass the point
of
resistance.
Then,
use the shaped
recess at the top of the door pilla
r to
guide
the door until it locks.
d
o not use the grab handle to slide the
door.
Good practice
Take care not to block the guide space on the floor to allow the door to slide
correctly
.
If
your vehicle is parked on a slope,
guide
the sliding of the side door. In
fact,
the door could open or close more
rapidly due to the slope of the ground
and
could cause injury.
For safety and operation reasons, do
not drive with the sliding side doors
open.
