System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the most appropriate gear.
Gear shift indicator
Operation
Example:
- Y ou are in third gear.
-
Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.
-
T
he system may suggest that you engage
a
higher gear.
Depending
on the driving situation and your
v
ehicle's equipment, the system may advise
y
ou to change gear.
The gear engagement recommendations must
n
ot be considered compulsory. In fact, the
c
onfiguration of the road, the amount of traffic
a
nd safety remain determining factors when
c
hoosing the best gear. Therefore, the driver
r
emains responsible for deciding whether or not
t
o follow the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
The information appears in the
i
nstrument panel in the form of an
a
r row. The
system adapts its gear change
r
ecommendation according to the d
riving conditions (slope, load, ...) and t
he demands of the driver (power,
a
cceleration, braking, ...).
The
system never suggests:
-
e
ngaging first gear,
-

With
an ETG electronic gearbox, the

Manual deactivation /

If the system has been deactivated in S TOP mode, the engine restarts immediately.
The
system is reactivated automatically at
e

Press
this button again.
The
system is active again; this is confirmed by the
i
ndicator lamp going off in the instrument panel.
Deactivation
is confirmed by the
i
llumination of this indicator lamp in

Maintenance
The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V b
attery of a special specification and
t
echnology.
All
work on this type of battery must be
d
one only by a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified
w
orkshop.
For
more information on the 12 V
b
attery, refer to the corresponding

Under-inflation detection
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. The
under-inflation detection system
d
oes not replace the need for vigilance
o
n the part 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 impairs
r
oad holding, extends braking distances
a
nd causes premature tyre wear, p
articularly under arduous condition (
high loading, high speed, long journey).
System
which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The inflation pressures defined for
y
our vehicle can be found on the tyre
p
ressure label.
For more information on the
i
dentification markings, refer to the c
orresponding 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
