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
bars, 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:
-
be
fore a long journey,
-
at e

ach change of season,
-
af

ter 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,
passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty your vehicle
becomes polluting ; go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay to have the emissions of nitrous oxides brought back to
the legal level.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to
avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3
0

00 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.
Eco-driving

DS5_en_Chap03_confort_ed02-2015
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
To o
btain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles
located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
as the air extractor located in the boot.
F
Do n

ot cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation
of the digital air conditioning system.
F
Op

erate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month
to keep it in per fect working order.
F
En

sure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
We r

ecommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its
special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
F
To e

nsure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have
it checked regularly as recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.
F
If t

he system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
You can switch off the air conditioning (AC button) and stay in Automatic mode in order
to limit fuel consumption. If misting appears while in this mode, you can switch the air
conditioning back on temporarily to improve the situation.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the
air conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very high, first
ventilate the passenger compartment for
a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
The condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge
of water under the vehicle which is
per fectly normal.
If you want to prioritise heating, start
and leave the engine running by
pressing ECO OFF.

Automatic operation
F Select position d for automatic changing

The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any intervention on the part
of the driver. It continuously selects the most
suitable gear according to the style of driving,
the profile of the road and the load in the
vehicle.
For maximum acceleration without touching
the selector, press the accelerator pedal down
fully (kick down). The gearbox changes down
automatically or maintains the gear selected
until the maximum engine speed is reached.
On braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically to provide effective engine
braking.
If you release the accelerator sharply, the
gearbox will not change to a higher gear for
safety reasons.
If position N is engaged inadvertently
while driving, allow the engine to
return to idle then engage position

Access to the tools
Procedure for changing a wheel with a damaged or punctured tyre for the spare wheel using the tools provided with the vehicle.
The other tools are stowed in a well under the
boot floor. The jack must only be used to change
a wheel with a damaged or punctured
tyre.
Do not use any jack other than the one
supplied with this vehicle.
If the vehicle does not have its original
jack, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop to obtain the correct

Advice on care and maintenance
customising stickers
These customising parts are self-adhesive
stickers, treated to give good resistance to
ageing and tearing.
They are intended for customising the body.
Available also as accessories, we recommend
that you have them fitted by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
When washing your vehicle, keep the end of
a high-pressure lance at least 30 centimetres
from the stickers.We strongly advise against cleaning
your vehicle in a high pressure car
wash.
Headlamps and lamps
The headlamps have polycarbonate lenses,
finished with a protective lacquer.
Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive cloth,
nor with detergent or solvent products.
Use a sponge and soapy water.
The use of a high pressure jet wash for
cleaning the headlamps, lamps and their
surrounds may damage the lacquer and seals.
Observe the recommendations on pressure
and distance for jet washing.
First clean persistent stains with a sponge and
warm soapy water.
Recommendations on the care and maintenance your vehicle are given in the maintenance and warranty guide.
Leather
Leather is a natural product. Appropriate
regular care and cleaning is essential for its
durability.
Refer to your vehicle's maintenance and
warranty guide for information on the special
precautions to observe.
