EMISSIONS CONTROLS
EoBd (European on Board diagnosis) is a diagnostics 
system
  which   complies  
with,
  among   others,   the  
standards on the authorised 
emissions of:
-
 
CO
 
(carbon   monoxide),
-
 
HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
-
  no
x (nitrous oxides) or particles, 
detected by oxygen sensors placed 
upstream
  and   downstream   of   the  
catalytic
  converters.
The
 
driver
  
is
  
warned
  
of
  
any
  
malfunction
  
of
 
this
 
emission   control   system   by   the  
illu
mination   of   this   specific   warning  
lamp
 
in
 
the   instrument   panel.
There
 
is
 
a   risk   of   damage   to   the  
catalytic
 
converter.   Have   it   checked  
by
 
a
 
CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
workshop.
UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
This system continuously  monitors  
the pressures of the four 
tyres, as soon as the 
vehicle
  is   moving.
a pressure sensor is located in the 
valve of each tyre (except the spare 
wheel).
The
 
system
 
triggers   an   alert   if   a   drop  
in
 
pressure
 
is
 
detected   in   one   or   more  
tyres.The
 
tyre
 
under-inflation   detection  
system
 
is
 
an   aid   to   driving   which  
does not replace the need for 
vigilance
 
on   the   part   of   the   driver.This
  system   does   not   avoid   the  need
  to   check   the   tyre   pressures  
regularly (including the spare 
wheel)
  and   before   a   long   journey.
Driving
  with   under-inflated   tyres  
adversely af
fects road holding, 
extends
  braking   distances   and   causes  
premature
  tyre   wear,   particularly   under  
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded, 
high
  speed,   long   journey).
Driving
  with   under-inflated   tyres  
increases
  fuel   consumption.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle 
can be found on the tyre pressure 
label.
Refer
  to   chapter   9,   "Identification  
markings"
  section.
The
  tyre   pressures   must   be   checked  
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped 
for 1 hour or after driving for less then 
6
  miles   (10   km)   at   moderate   speed).
Otherwise,
  add   0.3   bar   to   the   values  
indicated
  on   the   label.

The information appears in  the   instrument   panel

according to the driving conditions 
(slope,
 
load, ...)   and   the   demands  
of the driver (power

The

recommendations
  must   not   be

This
   is  
because
  the   configuration   of   the   road,  
the

Acceleration
For optimum acceleration (e.g. to overtake  another   vehicle),   simply  
press the pedal beyond the point of 
resistance at the end of its travel, by 
pressing
  down   firmly.
Vehicle stationary, with the 
engine running
In the event of a prolonged stop with 
the engine running, the gearbox 
changes  automatically   to   neutral   N.
Stopping the vehicle
Before stopping the engine, put the 
gear selector in position N.
In all cases, it is essential to apply 
the
  parking   brake.   Check   that   the  
parking
  brake   warning   lamp   is   on   in   the  
instrument
  panel.
Before doing anything in the 
engine
  compartment,   check   that  
the gear selector is in neutral 
N.
Changing gear
In situations of high engine speeds 
(heavy acceleration), a change 
up will not occur unless the driver 
operates the electronic gearbox control 
paddle. Pull on the "+" control 
paddle
  to   change   up.
Pull on the "-" control 
paddle to change  
down.
-
 
If the vehicle stops or reduces 
speed
  (for   example   when  
approaching a stop sign), 
the gearbox changes down 
automatically
,   to   first   gear   if  
needed.
-
 
It is not necessary to release the 
accelerator
  completely   during   gear  
changes.
-
  a
 gear change instruction is 
accepted only if the engine speed 
permits.
-
 
For safety reasons, depending on 
the engine speed, a change down 
may
  be   performed   automatically.

STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
  temporarily   on   standby   -   STOP mode
  -   during   stops   in   the   traffic   (red  
lights,
  traffic   jams,   or   other...).
The
  engine   restarts   automatically   -  
ST
ART
 
 mode   -   as   soon   as   you   want   to  
move
  off.
The
  restart   takes   place   instantly,  
quickly
  and   silently.
Perfect 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 modeThe "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 
release the clutch pedal,
-
 
with a 6-speed electronic 
gearbox
,   at   speeds   below   5   mph  
(8
  km/h),   when   you   press   the   brake  
pedal or put the gear lever into 
position 
N. If
  your   vehicle   is   fitted   with   the   system,  
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.
With a 6-speed electronic 
gearbox,   for   your   comfort   during  
parking
  manoeuvres,   STOP
 
 mode  
is not available for a few seconds after 
coming
  out   of   reverse   gear.

functionality of the vehicle, such as 
braking,
  power   steering,   for   example.

-  
the driver's door is open,
-
  
the driver's seat belt is not

-
  
the vehicle has not exceeded

This operation is perfectly normal.
Deactivation
In certain circumstances, such as the need to   maintain   a   comfortable   temperature   in the
  passenger   compartment,   it   may   be
 preferable
  to   deactivate   Stop   &   Start.
At any time, press the "ECO

Reactivation
Press the "ECO OFF" switch again.
