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 manufacturer's service schedule.
With
a BlueHDi 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.

Tyre under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the p
ressures of the tyres while driving.
The
system continuously monitors the
p
ressures 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
p
ressure is detected in one or more tyres.
The
tyre under-inflation detection system is an
a
id to driving which does not replace the need
f
or vigilance on the part of the driver.This
system does not avoid the need
t
o check the tyre pressures regularly
(
including the spare wheel) and before
a
long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
a
dversely affects road holding,
e
xtends braking distances and causes
p
remature tyre wear, particularly under a
rduous conditions (vehicle loaded, h
igh speed, long journey).The tyre pressures for your vehicle can
be
found on the tyre pressure label.
The tyre pressures must be checked
w
hen the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
f
or 1 hour or after driving for less then
6
miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
O
ther wise, add 0.3 bar to the values
i
ndicated on the label.
For m ore i nformation o n id entification m
arkings, including the tyre pressure
l
abel, refer to the corresponding
s
ection.
Driving
with under-inflated tyres
i
ncreases fuel consumption.

The flashing and then fixed illumination of the under-inflation w
arning lamp accompanied by the
i
llumination of the service warning
l
amp indicates a fault with the system.
Operating fault
The alert is given by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp,
a
ccompanied by an audible signal,
a
nd depending on equipment, the
d
isplay of a message.
Under-inflation alert
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres, the symbol or the message appears, according
t
o equipment, to identify it.
F
R
educe speed, avoid sudden steering
m
ovements or harsh brake applications.
F
S
top as soon as it is safe to do so. In
this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is
n
ot assured.
F
I
f you have a compressor (the one in the
t
emporary puncture repair kit for example),
c
heck the four tyre pressures when cold.
I
f it is not possible to check the tyre
p
ressures at the time, drive carefully at
r
educed
s
peed.
or
F
I
n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
w
heel (according to equipment).
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified w
orkshop to have the system checked or,
f
ollowing the repair of a puncture, to have the
o
riginal wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted.
Any
tyre repair or replacement on a wheel
f
itted with this system must be carried out by a
C
ITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If
after changing a tyre, a wheel is not detected
b
y your vehicle (fitting snow tyres for example),
y
ou must have the system reinitialised by a
C
ITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always
lead to visible deformation of
t
he tyre.
Do
not rely on just a visual check.This alert is also displayed when one or
more
wheels is not fitted with a sensor
(
for example, a space-saver or steel
spar
e
w
heel).
The alert is maintained until the tyre or t
yres concerned is reinflated, repaired
or replaced.
The
spare wheel (space-saver type or a
s
teel rim) does not have a sensor.

Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.
Advice on installation
F If you have to fit the chains during a j
ourney, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
o
n the side of the road.
F
A

w
heel chocks to prevent movement of your
v
ehicle.

p
rovided by the manufacturer.
F
M
ove off gently and drive for a few
m
oments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50
km/h).

For more information on snow chains, contact a C ITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.It
is strongly recommended that before y
ou leave, you practise fitting the snow
c
hains on a level and dry sur face.
The
snow
chains
must
be
fitted
only
t
o
the
front
wheels.
They
must
never
b
e fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force
i
n your country on the use of snow
chains
and the maximum running speed
a
uthorised. Avoid
driving with snow chains on roads
t
hat have been cleared of snow, to
avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and
t
he road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted
w
ith alloy wheels, check that no part of
t
he chain or its fixings is in contact with
t
he wheel rim.
