2015 CITROEN DS3 CABRIO fuel pressure

15
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  
b

ars,   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:
-
 
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   maintenance   and   warranty   guide.
With
  a   Blue   HDi   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.
Eco-driving

Under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
T he   under-inflation   detection   system  
d

oes   not   replace   the   vigilance   or   the  
r

esponsibility   of   the   driver.
This
  system   does   not   avoid   the   need   to  
c

heck   the   tyre   pressures   (including   the  
s

pare   wheel)   every   month   as   well   as  
b

efore   a   long   journey.
Driving
  with   under-inflated   tyres  
i

mpairs   road   holding,   extends   braking  
d

istances   and   causes   premature  
t

yre   wear,   particularly   under   arduous  
c

ondition   (high   loading,   high   speed,  
lon

g
 jo
urney).The
  inflation   pressures   defined   for  
y

our   vehicle   can   be   found   on   the   tyre  
p

ressure   label.
See
  the   "Identification   markings"  
s

ection.
Tyre
  pressures   should   be   checked  
w

hen   the   tyres   are   "cold"   (vehicle  
s

topped   for   1   hour   or   after   a   journey   of  
l

ess   than   6   miles   (10   km)   at   moderate  
s

peeds).
Other wise
  (when   hot),   add   0.3   bar   to  
t

he   pressures   shown   on   the   label.
Driving
  with   under-inflated   tyres  
i

ncreases   fuel   consumption.
The
  system   monitors   the   pressures   in   the   four  
t

yres,   once   the   vehicle   is   moving.
It
  compares   the   information   given   by   the   four  
w

heel   speed   sensors   with   reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed .
The
  system   triggers   an   alert   as   soon   as   it  
d

etects   a   drop   in   the   inflation   pressure   of   one  
o

r   more   tyres.

Matt paintWe recommend the use of a high pressure jet   wash,   or   at   least   a   water   hose   with   a   high  
o

utput.
We
  recommend   that   the   vehicle   be   rinsed   using  
d

e-ionised
 w
ater.
Use
  only   a   microfibre   cloth   to   dry   the   vehicle.  
I

t   must   be   clean   and   used   without   heavy  
p

ressure.
Lightly
  wipe   off   any   fuel   stains   present   on   the  
b

odywork   using   a   soft   cloth,   then   leave   to   dry.
From
  the   range   of   cleaning   and   maintenance  
p

roducts   in   the   "TECHNATURE"   range  
r

ecommended   and   approved   by   CITROËN,  
u

se   only   the   insect   remover   and   car   shampoo,  
w

hich   are   the   only   products   to   be   used   on   the  
bo

dywork.
The
  insect   remover   can   also   be   used   to   remove  
m

inor   marks   (for   example:   finger   marks...).
Always
  have   paint   repairs   done   by   a   CITROËN  
d

ealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.

or   more   information,   contact   a   CITROËN
 d

ealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption. The
  tyre   pressures   must   be   checked  
w

hen   the   tyres   are   cold,   at   least   once  
a

  month.
C. Manufacturer's label.
The
  VIN   is   indicated   on   a   self-destroying   label

ffixed   to   the   left   hand   centre   pillar.It
  bears   the   following   information:
-
 
t

c

onditions,
-
 
t
he   wheel   rim   and   tyre   sizes,
