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.
Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently, change up without waiting and
drive by changing up quite soon.
With an automatic or electronic gearbox, stay in Drive "D" or
a
u
to "A",
according to the type of gearbox, without pressing the accelerator pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The gear shift indicator invites you to select the most suitable gear:
once the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow the
advice straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an electronic or automatic gearbox, this indicator
only appears 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 (window blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning 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 foglamp 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.

Cruise control
System which automatically maintains the
speed of the vehicle at the value programmed
by the driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h), as well as the engagement of:
-
f
ourth gear on a manual gearbox,
-

s
econd gear on a or automatic or electronic
gearbox, in sequential mode,
-

p
osition A on an electronic gearbox or
position D on an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off manually
or by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or
on triggering of the ESP system for safety
reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value. The controls of this system are grouped
together on stalk A

F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the "CRUISE"
position: the cruise control mode
is selected but is not switched on
(PAUS E).
Programming
You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2 and 3 :
- b y + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short press,
-

b
y + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press,
-

i
n steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press. When the cruise control is switched on,
be careful if you maintain the pressure
on one of the programmed speed
changing buttons: this may result in a
very rapid change in the speed of your
vehicle.
do n

ot use the cruise control on
slippery roads or in heavy traffic.
On a steep descent, the cruise control
will not be able to prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:
-

e
nsure that the mat is secured
c o r r e c t l y,
-

n
ever fit one mat on top of another.
In the event of a cruise control malfunction,
the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the
dashes. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Operating fault
Leaving cruise control mode
F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the "0" position: the cruise control mode is
deselected. The display returns to the distance recorder.
Exceeding the programmed speed
Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the programmed speed
results in flashing of this speed in the screen.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or
unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the
flashing of the speed. F
