We recommend the use of one of
the three AUTO modes available:
they provide optimised regulation of

ess the "AUTO" button repeatedly:
-
a fi

rst indicator lamp comes on; the "low"
setting mode is selected,
-
a se

cond indicator lamp comes on; the
"medium" setting mode is selected,
-
a th

ird indicator lamp comes on; the
"high" mode setting is selected.
Use the "medium" and "high" settings in
preference to maintain the comfort level at the
r e a r. When the engine is cold, the air
flow will reach its optimum level
progressively, taking account of the
weather and the desired comfort level
so as to avoid too great a distribution
of cold air.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than the comfort value, there is no
need to change the value displayed in
order to obtain the comfort required. In
all seasons, with the windows closed
the system corrects the difference
in temperature automatically and as
quickly as possible.
This system is designed to operate effectively
in all seasons, with the windows closed.

Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions).
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, put the selector
in position P or N to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle, unless it is programmed
to automatic mode.If the selector is not in position P ,
when the driver's door is opened or
approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off, there is an
audible signal and a message appears.
F
Re

turn the selector to position P ;
the audible signal stops and the
message disappears.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen to indicate a
gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel
a substantial knock when changing from P
to R and from N to R . This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. You risk damaging the gearbox:
-
if y

ou press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time,
-
if y

ou force the selector from
position P to another position when
the battery is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffic jam...), position
the gear selector at N and apply the
parking brake, unless it is programmed
in automatic mode.

Gear efficiency indicator*
On vehicle fitted with a manual gearbox,
the arrow may be accompanied by the
gear recommended.The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (slope, load, ...) and
the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking, ...).
The system never suggests:
-
en

gaging first gear,
-
engag

ing reverse gear.
With an automatic gearbox, the system
is only active in manual mode.
* Depending on engine.
On BlueHDi Diesel 135 and 150 versions with
manual gearbox, in certain driving conditions
the system may suggest changing into neutral
so that the engine can go into standby (STOP
mode with Stop & Start). In this case, N is
displayed in the instrument panel. System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one (or more) gear(s). You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
The gear engagement recommendations must
not be considered compulsory. In fact, the
configuration of the road, the amount of traffic
and safety remain determining factors when
choosing the best gear. Therefore, the driver
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated. Example:
- Yo
u are in third gear.
-
Yo

u press the accelerator pedal.
-
Th

e system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear.
The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow.

Stop & Start
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "EcO" w arning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
-
wi

th a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) or vehicle stationary with
the THP 120 petrol and BlueHDi 115 and
120 Diesel versions, when you place the
gear lever in neutral and you release the
clutch pedal,
-
wi

th an automatic gearbox , vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or put the gear selector in 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 resets itself
to zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the START/STOP

button.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the START/STOP button.
For your comfort, during parking
maoeuvres, STOP mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
Stop & Start does not affect the
operation of vehicle systems such as
braking, power steering...
The Stop & Start
s

ystem puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, ...). The engine
restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
