As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices
(film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting the
consumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting.
During acceleration change up early.
With an automatic gearbox, give preference to automatic mode and
avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
The gear shift indicator invites you engage the most suitable gear: as
soon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it
straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox, this indicator appears
only in manual mode.
drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather
than the brake pedal, and press the accelerator progressively. These
practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions and also helps reduce the background traffic noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds
above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.
Control the use of your electrical
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it
by opening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents
open.
Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the
temperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window
blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regulation, as
soon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps when the level of light
does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter; your
vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.

Lighting controlsSystem for selection and control of the various front and rear lamps providing the vehicle's lighting.
The various front and rear lamps of the vehicle
are designed to adapt the driver's visibility
progressively according to the climatic
conditions:
-
s
idelamps, to be seen,
-
d
ipped beam headlamps to see without
dazzling other drivers,
-
m
ain beam headlamps to see clearly when
the road is clear.
Main lighting
Other lamps are provided to meet the
requirements of particular driving conditions:
-
r
ear foglamps,
-
f
ront foglamps with cornering lighting,
-
d
irectional headlamps for improved
visibility when cornering,
-
d
aytime running lamps to be more visible
during the day,
-
g
uide-me-home and welcome lighting to
facilitate access to the vehicle,
-
p
arking lamps as vehicle position markers.

The setting of some functions can be adjusted:
- a utomatic illumination of headlamps,
-
g
uide-me-home lighting,
-
w

Programming
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal sur face of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps
is normal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.
Travelling abroad
Halogen and xenon headlamps
If planning to use your vehicle in a
country that drives on the other side of
the road, the headlamp dipped beams
must be adjusted to avoid dazzling on-
coming drivers.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Model with front and rear
foglamps
In good or rainy weather, by both day
and night, the front foglamps and the
rear foglamps are prohibited. In these
situations, the power of their beams
may dazzle other drivers. They should
only be used in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, you should
switch on the foglamps and dipped
beam headlamps manually, as the
sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light.
Do not forget to switch off the front and
rear foglamps when they are no longer
necessary.

When a low level of ambient light is detected
by a sunshine sensor, the number plate
lamps,
s
idelamps and dipped beam headlamps
are switched on automatically, without any
action on the part of the driver. They can also
come on if rain is detected, at the same time as
automatic operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the ambient light returns to a
sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers
are switched off, the lamps are switched off
automatically.
Activation
F Turn the ring to the "AUTO" position. The
activation of the function is accompanied
by the display of a message in the screen.
deactivation
F Turn the ring to another position. Deactivation of the function is accompanied
by the display of a message in the screen.
Automatic guide-me-home
lighting
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the
sunshine sensor, the lighting comes
on, this warning lamp is displayed
in the instrument panel and/or a
message appears in the screen,
accompanied by an audible signal. In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor
may detect sufficient light. In this
case, the lighting will not come on
automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor,
coupled with the rain sensor and
located in the centre of the windscreen
behind the rear view mirror; the
associated functions would no longer
be controlled.
When the automatic illumination of headlamps
function is activated (lighting control stalk in the
"
AUTO " position), under low ambient light the
dipped beam headlamps remain on when the
ignition is switched off.
Programming
Activation or deactivation, as well
as the duration of the guide-me-
home lighting, is set in the vehicle
configuration menu.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
