1Driving
Six-speed automatic gearbox which offers a
choice between the comfort of fully automatic
operation or manual gear changing.
Two driving modes are available:


- automatic
operation with electronic
management of the gears by the gearbox,

- manual
operation for sequential changing
of the gears by the driver.

)
Press the brake pedal when this
indicator lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel (e.g.: starting
the engine).

2Driving

Moving off


If position N
is selected inadvertently
while driving, allow the engine to
return to idle then select position D
to
accelerate.
If the ambient temperature is below
-23°C, the engine should be left at idle
for four minutes, to ensure the correct
operation and life of the engine and
gearbox.
When the engine is running at idle, with
the brakes released, if position R
, D
or
M
is selected, the vehicle moves even
without the accelerator being pressed.
When the engine is running, never
leave children in the vehicle without
supervision.
When carrying out maintenance with
the engine running, apply the parking
brake and select position P
.


)
Apply the parking brake.

)
Select position P
or N
.

)
Start the engine.
If these conditions are not met, there is an
audible signal, accompanied by the display of
an warning message.


)
With the engine running, press the brake
pedal.

)
Release the parking brake.

)
Select position R
, D
or M
.

)
Gradually release the brake pedal.
The vehicle moves off immediately.

4Driving

If the selector is not in position P
,
when the driver's door is opened or
approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off, a warning
message appears in the screen.


)
Return the selector to position P
;
the message disappears.
When driving on flooded roads or when
crossing a ford, proceed at walking
pace.



Manual operation



)
Select position M
for sequential
changing
of the six gears.

)
Move the selector towards the +
sign to
change up a gear.

)
Move the selector towards the -
sign to
change down a gear.
It is only possible to change from one gear to
another if the vehicle speed and engine speed
permit; other wise, the gearbox will operate
temporarily in automatic mode. This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions).


D
disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succession in the
instrument panel.

Stopping the vehicle

Before switching off the engine, you can
engage position P
or N
to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle.

Invalid value during manual
operation
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the
gear selected flashes for a few seconds, then
the actual gear engaged is displayed.
It is possible to change from position D

(automatic) to position M
(manual) at any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox engages first gear
automatically. When the ignition is on, the lighting
of this warning lamp, accompanied

Operating fault
by an audible signal and a message in the
multifunction screen, indicates a gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel
a substantial knock when changing from P

to R
and from N
to R
. This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.

There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:


- if you press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time,

- if you force the movement of the
selector from the P
position to
another position when the battery is
flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when at
a prolonged standstill with the engine
running (traffic jam...), put the selector
in the N
position and apply the parking
brake.
