Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automatically
next  time   the   vehicle   is   driven.
In order to restore the use of these functions
immediately,
  start   the   engine   and   let   it   run:
-

f
or less than ten minutes, to use the
equipment
  for   approximately   five   minutes,
-

f
or more than ten minutes, to use the
equipment
  for   up   to   approximately  
t

hirty minutes.
Let
  the   engine   run   for   the   duration   specified   to  
e

nsure   that   the   battery   charge   is   sufficient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously restart the
engine
  in   order   to   charge   the   battery.
A
  flat   battery   prevents   the   engine   from   starting.
For more information on the 12 V batter y , refer
to
  the   corresponding   section.
Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain functions   according   to   the   level   of   charge  
r

emaining   in   the   battery.
When
  the   vehicle   is   being   driven,   the   load  
r

eduction function temporarily deactivates
certain
  functions,   such   as   the   air   conditioning,  
t

he   heated   rear   screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically
  as   soon   as   conditions   permit.
Energy economy mode
Switching to economy
mode
A message appears in the instrument panel s
creen   indicating   that   the   vehicle   has   switched  
t

o economy mode and the active functions are
put
  on   standby.
If
  a   telephone   call   is   being   made   at   this   time,   it  
w

ill be maintained for around 10 minutes with
the Bluetooth hands-free system of your audio
system. System   which   manages   the   duration   of   use   of   certain   functions   to   conserve   a   sufficient   level   of  
c

harge   in   the   battery.
After   the   engine   has   stopped,   you   can   still   use   functions   such   as   the   audio   and   telematics  
s

ystem, windscreen   wipers,   dipped   beam   headlamps, courtesy   lamps,   etc.   for   a   maximum  
c

ombined   duration   of   about   forty   minutes.

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However,  check   that   the   terminals  
a

re   clean   and   correctly   tightened,  
p

articularly   in   summer   and   winter.Refer
  to   the   manufacturer's  s
ervice schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the
engine   oil   is   changed.
Refer
  to   the   manufacturer's  
s

ervice schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
Oil filterThe presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a specific 12 V lead-acid
battery
  with   special   technology   and
 s

pecification.
 T

he involvement of a CITROËN dealer
or
  a   qualified   workshop   is   essential   when
 r

eplacing   or   disconnecting   the   battery.
Unless
  other wise   indicated,   check   these   components   in   accordance   with   the   manufacturer's   service   schedule   and   according   to   your   engine.
Other wise,   have   them   checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
Depending   on   the   environment   (e.g.   dusty  
a

tmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g. city   driving),   replace them twice as often
if necessary .
A   clogged   passenger   compartment   filter   may  
h

ave an adverse effect on the per formance
of   the   air   conditioning   system   and   generate  u
ndesirable o dours.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filter
  is   indicated   by   the   fixed  
i

llumination   of   this   warning   lamp  
a

ccompanied   by   a   warning   message.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate
  the   filter   by   driving   at   a  
s

peed   of   at   least   40   mph   (60   km/h)   until  
t

he
 
warning   lamp   goes   off.
If
 
the   warning   lamp   stays   on,   this  
i

ndicates   a   low   additive   level.
For more information on Checking
levels and the Diesel additive level in
particular,
  refer   to   the   corresponding  
s

ection.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter
  regeneration   operations   may   be  
a

ccompanied   by   a   "burning"   smell,  
w

hich   is   per fectly   normal.
Following
  prolonged   operation   of   the  
v

ehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you
  may,   in   exceptional   circumstances,  
n

otice the emission of water vapour at
the
 
exhaust   on   acceleration.   This   does  
n

ot affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or
 
the   environment.
When
 
carrying
 
out
 
work
 
on
 
the
 
battery,
 
refer
 
t

o the " 12 V batter y " section for details of the
precautions
 
to
 
be
 
taken
 
before
 
disconnecting
 
t

he
 
battery
 
and
 
following
 
its
 
reconnection.

Access to the battery
Procedure for starting the engine using another battery or charging a discharged battery.
P rotect your eyes and face before
handling
  the   battery.
All operations on the battery must be
carried out in a well ventilated area and
away
  from   naked   flames   and   sources  
o

f   sparks,   so   as   to   avoid   the   risk   of  
e

xplosion   or   fire.
Wash
  your   hands   after wards.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of
specific
 t

echnology
 a
nd
 s
pecification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Batteries contain harmful substances
such
  as   sulphuric   acid   and   lead.
They must be disposed of in
accordance
  with   regulations   and   must  
n

ot, in any circumstances, be discarded
with
  household   waste.
Take
  used   remote   control   batteries   and  
v

ehicle batteries to a special collection
point.
General points
Lead-acid starter batteries
If your vehicle has an automatic
gearbox,   do   not   try   to   start   the   engine  
b

y   pushing   the   vehicle.
The

Charging the battery using a battery charger
If this label is present, it is essential
to
  use   only   a   12   V   charger,   to   avoid  
c

ausing   irreversible   damage   to   the  
el

ectrical components related to the
Stop
  &   Start   system.
For optimum service life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances it may be necessary to
charge
  the   battery:
-

i

f you use your vehicle essentially for short
journeys,
-
 
i

f
 
the   vehicle   is   to   be   taken   off   the   road   for  
s

everal   weeks.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

a period which depends on the ambient
temperature
  and   the   state   of   charge   of
