Acceleration
For optimum acceleration (e.g. to overtake  another   vehicle),   simply  
press the pedal beyond the point of
resistance at the end of its travel, by
pressing

  down   firmly.
Vehicle stationary, with the
engine running
In the event of a prolonged stop with
the engine running, the gearbox
changes automatically to neutral N.
Stopping the vehicle
Before stopping the engine, put the
gear selector in position N.
In all cases, it is essential to apply
the  parking   brake.   Check   that   the  
parking

  brake   warning   lamp   is   on   in   the  
instrument

  panel.
Before doing anything in the
engine
  compartment,   check   that  
the gear selector is in neutral

N.
Changing gear
In situations of high engine speeds
(heavy acceleration), a change
up will not occur unless the driver
operates the electronic gearbox control
paddle. Pull on the "+" control
paddle
  to   change   up.
Pull on the "-" control
paddle to change
down.
-

If the vehicle stops or reduces
speed (for example when
approaching a stop sign),
the gearbox changes down
automatically

,   to   first   gear   if  
needed.
-


It is not necessary to release the
accelerator completely during gear
changes.
-


A
gear change instruction is
accepted only if the engine speed
permits.
-

For safety reasons, depending on
the engine speed, a change down
may

  be   performed   automatically.
Manual mode
Changing to manual mode
Move the gear selector to M. Automatic mode Changing to automatic
mode
Move the gear selector to A.
The gearbox then operates in
automatic mode, without any action on
your
 
part.
It constantly selects the gear that is
best
 
suited
 
to
 
the
 
following
 
conditions:
-

driving style,
-

 
road

 
profile,
-

STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the
engine temporarily on standby - ST OP
mode
  -   during   stops   in   the   traffic   (red  
lights,

  traffic   jams,   or   other...).
The engine restarts automatically -
START mode - as soon as you want to
move
  off.
The
  restart   takes   place   instantly,  
quickly

  and   silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise
level
  when   stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP modeThe "ECO" warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel and the engine goes
into
  standby:
-

with a manual gearbox
, at speeds
below
  12   mph   (20   km/h),   when   you  
put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal,
-


with a 6-speed electronic
gearbox

, at speeds below 5 mph
(8
  km/h),   when   you   press   the   brake  
pedal or put the gear lever into
position

N. If
  your   vehicle   is   fitted   with   the   system,  
a time counter calculates the sum of
the periods in ST

OP mode during a
journey.   It   rests   itself   to   zero   every   time  
the

  ignition   is   switched   on   with   the   key.
With a 6-speed electronic
gearbox, for your comfort during
parking   manoeuvres,   STOP
 
mode  
is not available for a few seconds after
coming

  out   of   reverse   gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as
braking,   power   steering,   for   example.
Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off
the   ignition   with   the   key.Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP
 

mode   is   not   invoked   when:
-
the vehicle is on a steep slope
(rising or fallin

g),
-
the driver's door is open,
-

the driver's seat belt is not
fastened,
-

the vehicle has not exceeded

6   mph   (10   km/h)   since   the   last  
engine

  start   using   the   key,
-
the engine is needed to maintain
a comfortable temperature in the
passenger compartment,
-

demisting is on,
-

some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature,
braking

  assistance,   ambient  temperature...)
  where   the   engine  is needed to assure control of a
system.
In this case, the
"ECO"
warning
  lamp   flashes   for   a  
few

  seconds,   then   goes   off.
This operation is perfectly normal.

HILL START ASSIST
This system (also called HHC - Hill
Holder
  Control),   linked   to   the   dynamic  
stability

  control   system,   makes   hill  
starts easier and is activated in the
following

  conditions:
-

the vehicle must be stationary
,
engine
  running,   foot   on   the   brake,
-

the gradient of the road must be
steeper than 5%,
-


uphill, the gearbox must be in
neutral or in a gear other than
reverse,
-


downhill, reverse gear must be
engaged.
The Hill Start

Assist system is a driving
aid.
  It   is   not   an   automatic   vehicle  
parking

  function   or   an   automatic  
parking

  brake.
Operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal pressed, from the time you release
the  brake   pedal,   without   using   the  
parking

  brake,   you   have   approximately  
2

seconds to move off before the
vehicle
  starts   to   roll   back.
During the moving off phase, the
function is deactivated automatically,
gradually
  releasing   the   braking  
pressure.

  During   this   phase,   the  
characteristic noise of mechanical
release

  of   the   brakes   may   be   heard,  
indicating the imminent movement of
the

  vehicle.
Operating fault
Hill start assist is deactivated in the
following   situations:
-

when the clutch pedal is released,
-

 
when
  the   parking   brake   is   applied,
-

when the engine is switched of
f,
-
 
when
  the   engine   stalls.
If a malfunction of the
system occurs, this
warning lamp comes on
accompanied by an audible
signal
  and   confirmed   by  
a

  message   in   the   screen.   Have   the  
system

  checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer  
or

  a   qualified   workshop.

DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS
Observe the driving regulations and
remain  vigilant   whatever   the   traffic  
conditions.
Pay

  close   attention   to   the   traffic   and  
keep

  your   hands   on   the   wheel   so   that  
you are ready to react at any time to
any

  eventuality.
As a safety precaution, the driver
must only carry out actions requiring
sustained attention when the vehicle is
stationary.
On
  a   long   journey,   a   break   every  
two hours

  is   strongly   recommended.
In
  difficult   weather,   drive   smoothly,  
anticipate

  the   need   to   brake   and  
increase the distance from other
vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving
on  flooded   roads,   as   this   could   cause  
serious damage to the engine or
gearbox, as well as to the electrical
systems

  of   your   vehicle. If you are obliged to drive through
water:
-
 
check
  that   the   depth   of   water   does  
not

  exceed   15   cm,   taking   account  
of waves that might be generated
by other users,
-

deactivate the Stop & Start system,
-

drive as slowly as possible without
stallin

g.   In   all   cases,   do   not   exceed  6
  mph   (10   km/h),
- do not stop and do not switch of f
the
  engine.
On
  leaving   the   flooded   road,   as   soon  
as

  circumstances   allow,   make   several  
light

  brake   applications   to   dry   the   brake  
discs

  and   pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
  workshop.Never
  drive   with   the   parking   brake  
applied

  -   Risk   of   overheating   and  
damage

  to   the   braking   system!
Risk   of   fire!
As the exhaust system of your vehicle
is very hot, even several minutes
after switching off the engine, do not
park   or   leave   the   engine   running   over  
areas

  where   inflammable   substances  
and

  materials   are   present:   grass,  
leaves, etc.
Never leave a vehicle
unsupervised with the engine
running.
  If   you   have   to   leave  your vehicle with the engine running,
apply
  the   parking   brake   and   put   the  
gearbox into neutral or position

N or P,
depending
  on   the   type   of   gearbox.
Important!

Good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine  automatically   limits   its   power.  
In this case, the air conditioning is
automatically cut of

f to save engine
power.
Tyres
Check
  the   tyre   pressures   of   the   towing  
vehicle and of the trailer

, observing the
recommended
  pressures.

CHECKS
Carbon filter and passenger compartment filterParticle filter (Diesel)
Maintenance of the particle filter must be  carried   out   by   a   CITROËN   dealer.
On acceleration after the vehicle has
been running for a prolonged period
at very low speed or at idle, you may,
in exceptional circumstances, notice
the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust.
 
This
  water   vapour   does   not  
have any adverse ef

fect on vehicle
handling
  or   the   environment.
Battery
At the start of summer or winter, have
your  battery   checked   by   a   CITROËN  
dealer

  or   a   qualified   workshop.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
  It   may   be   necessary   to  
check

  the   thickness   of   the   pads,   even  
between

  services.
Unless
  there   is   a   leak   on   the   circuit,   a  
drop

  in   the   brake   fluid   level   indicates  
that

  the   brake   pads   are   worn.
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the brake disc  /   drum   wear,   contact   a   CITROËN  
dealer

.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great or there is a reduction in the
performance
  of   the   system,   the   parking
 brake

  should   be   adjusted,   even   between
 services.
Have

  the   system   checked   by   a   CITROËN
 dealer

  or   a   qualified   workshop.
Oil filter
Change the filter regularly in accordance with the manufacturer's
servicing  schedule.
An
 
access
 
flap
 
allows
 
replacement
 
of
 
the

 
filters.
The
