3Access
In order to maintain the state of charge of the battery, it is recommended that the roof be operated with the engine running .
Operation of the roof is possible: - engine running, or - ignition on.
During operation of the roof with just the ignition on, starting the engine may cause the roof to stop, depending on the state of charge of the battery. To have the roof continue the operation, operate the control again after the engine has started.
Operating zones
There are two operating zones: Zone A : horizontal operating zone, in manual or automatic mode. Zone B : vertical operating zone, in automatic mode only.
Before operating the roof, ensure that no occupant of the vehicle or person outside the vehicle could be subject to any risk related to the movement of the roof or the rear screen and that no object could inter fere with the operation.
Roof positions
Position 0 : Roof completely closed. Position 1 : Stop position for automatic roof closing. Position 2 : Roof open horizontally. Position 3 : Roof completely open.

12Access
System for mechanical unlocking of the boot in the event of a battery or central locking malfunction.
Unlocking
Emergency release
 Insert a small screwdriver into hole A of each lateral latch to unlock the boot.  Fold back the rear seat to gain access to the two latches, from inside the boot.
Before opening the boot, ensure that the roof is not in zone B .
For information on the perimeter protection of your vehicle, refer to the DS 3 handbook.
The alarm provides only perimeter protection for your vehicle.
Alarm
System for the protection and dissuasion against theft of your vehicle.

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.

5Driving











Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.


Operation


Going into engine STOP mode


For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...

Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key. The "ECO"
warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:


- with a manual gearbox
, at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h), when you put the gear
lever into neutral, and you release the
clutch pedal.

- with a 5 or 6-speed electronic gearbox
,
when stationary or at speeds below 5 mph
(8 km/h) (depending on version), when
you press the brake pedal or put the gear
selector in position N
.

- with an automatic gearbox
, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or you place the gear selector in position N
. A time counter calculates the sum
of the periods in STOP mode
during a journey. It rests itself
to zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the key. STOP mode is not invoked when:


- the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,

- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start using
the key,

- the engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,

- demisting is active,

- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.


Special cases: STOP mode not
available
The "ECO"
warning lamp flashes for
a few seconds then goes off.

This operation is per fectly normal.

6Driving

Going into engine START mode

The "ECO"
warning lamp goes off
and the engine starts:


- with a manual gearbox
, when you
depress the clutch pedal,

- with an electronic or automatic
gearbox
:


●
gear selector in position A
/ D
or M
,
when you release the brake pedal,

●
or gear selector in position N
and the
brake pedal released, when you move
the gear selector to position A / D
or M
,

●
or when you engage reverse gear.




Special cases: START invoked
automatically

If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.
At any time, press the "ECO OFF"
switch to
deactivate the system.
This is confirmed by the switch warning lamp
coming on accompanied by a message in the
screen.

Deactivation

For reasons of safety and for your comfort,
START mode is invoked automatically when:


- you open the driver's door,

- you unfasten the driver's seat belt,

- the speed of the vehicle exceeds 7 mph
(11 km/h) with the electronic gearbox
system,

- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed for control of a system.
The "ECO"
warning lamp flashes for
a few seconds, then goes off.

This operation is per fectly normal.




With a manual gearbox in STOP
mode, if you engage a gear without
fully depressing the clutch pedal, a
message is displayed asking you to
fully depress the clutch pedal so that
the engine can restart.

7Driving

The system is reactivated automatically
at every new start using the key.



Reactivation

This system requires a battery with a special
specification and technology (reference
numbers available from a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by CITROËN
introduces the risk of malfunction of the system.
In the event of a fault with the system, the
"ECO OFF"
switch warning lamp flashes then
comes on continuously.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall. All of the instrument panel
warning lamps come on. It is then necessary
to switch off the ignition and start the engine
again using the key.


Operating fault
Maintenance


Before doing anything under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid any risk of injury
resulting from automatic operation of
START mode.

The Stop & Start system makes use
of advanced technology. All work
on this type of battery must be done
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Press the "ECO OFF"
switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off,
accompanied by a message in the screen.
