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
p
reference.
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:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-
a
t each change of season,
-
a
fter a long period out of use.
Don't
forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have
your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter,
p
assenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of
o
perations recommended in the manufacturer's service schedule.
With
a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty your vehicle
b
ecomes polluting; go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
w
ithout delay to have the emissions of nitrous oxides brought back to
t
he legal level.
When
refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to
a
void any over flow.
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.

Ventilation
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger compartment is filtered and originates either from the outside via t
he grille located at the base of the windscreen or
f
rom the inside in air recirculation mode.
Air treatment
The incoming air follows various routes depending on the controls selected by the
d
river:
-
d
irect arrival in the passenger
c
ompartment (air intake),
-
p
assage through a heating circuit (heating),
-
p
assage through a cooling circuit (air
c
onditioning).
Control panel
The controls of this system are accessible in the " Air conditioning "
menu of the touch
s
creen tablet A .
The
demisting/defrosting controls for the

Air distribution
Comfort
93
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines belo w:
F
T
o obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles
l
ocated at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
a
s the air extractor located in the boot.
F
D
o not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation
o
f the air conditioning system.
F
O
perate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month
t
o keep it in per fect working order.
F
E
nsure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter
e
lements replaced regularly.
W
e recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its
s
pecial active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the
o
ccupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic
s
ymptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
F
T
o ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have
i
t checked regularly as recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.
F
I
f the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified
w
orkshop.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine, the i nterior t emperature i s v ery h igh, f irst
v
entilate the passenger compartment for
a
few moments.
Put
the air flow control at a setting high
e
nough to quickly change the air in the
p
assenger
c
ompartment.
The
air conditioning system does not
c
ontain chlorine and does not present
a
ny danger to the ozone layer.
The
condensation created by the air
c
onditioning results in a discharge
o
f water under the vehicle which is
p
er fectly normal.
When
towing
the
maximum
load
on
a
steep
gradient
in
high
temperatures,
switching
off
the
a
ir
conditioning
increases
the
available
engine
power
and
so
improves
the
towing
ability.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning s ystems only work when the engine
i
s running. To maintain a comfortable
t
emperature in the passenger
c
ompartment, you can temporarily
d
eactivate the Stop & Start system
(see
the corresponding section).

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
H owever, check that the terminals are clean a
nd correctly tightened, particularly in summer
a
nd winter.Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for details of the
r
eplacement intervals for these
c
omponents.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the e ngine oil is changed.
Refer
to the manufacturer's
s
ervice schedule for details of
t
he replacement interval for this
c
omponent.
Oil filter
The presence of this label, in particular with
the Stop & Start system, indicates the use of
a
specific 12 V lead-acid battery with special
t
echnology and specification. The involvement
o
f a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
i
s essential when replacing or disconnecting
t
he battery.
Unless
other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty a
tmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city d
riving),
r
eplace them twice as often if necessar y .
A
clogged passenger compartment filter may have
a
n adverse effect on the per formance of the air
c
onditioning system and generate undesirable
o
dours.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the
particle filter is indicated by the
f
ixed illumination of this warning
l
amp accompanied by a warning
m
essage.
As
soon as the traffic conditions permit,
r
egenerate the filter by driving at a
s
peed
of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
t
he
warning lamp goes off.
If
the
warning lamp stays on, this
i
ndicates a low additive level.
Refer
to the "Diesel additive level"
s
ection.
on a n
ew vehicle, the first particle
filter
regeneration operations may be
a
ccompanied by a "burning" smell,
w
hich
is per fectly normal.
Following
prolonged operation of the
v
ehicle
at very low speed or at idle,
y
ou
may, in exceptional circumstances,
n
otice
the emission of water vapour at
t
he
exhaust on acceleration. This does
n
ot affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or
the
environment.
When
carrying
out
work
on
the
battery,
refer
t
o
the
"12
V
battery"
section
for
details
of
the
p
recautions
to
be
taken
before
disconnecting
t
he
battery
and
following
its
reconnection.
