Eco-driving is a range of everyday
practices that allow the motorist to
optimise their fuel consumption and
CO
2 emissions.
Eco-driving
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 or electronic
gearbox, give preference to automatic
mode and avoid pressing the
accelerator
pedal heavily or suddenly.
The
gear efficiency indicator invites
you
to 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 electronic
or 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 help to 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
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.
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.
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.

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:
-
before
a long journey,
-
at each change of season,
-
after
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 nitrogen
oxides
brought back to the legal level.When refuelling, do not continue after
the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any
overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it
is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3 000
kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent
average.

Good practice
Take care not to allow the remote control to come into contact with
grease, dust, rain or a damp
environment.
A
heavy object attached to the key
(key
ring, ...) weighing on the shaft
of
the key in the switch, may cause a
malfunction.
REMOTE CONTROL
Reinitialising the remote
control
Following changing of the remote
control battery or disconnection of the
vehicle battery, the remote control may
have
to be reinitialised.
Wait at least one minute before using
the
remote control.
Insert
the key in the ignition switch with
the
buttons (padlocks) of the remote
control
facing you.
Switch
on the ignition.
Press
the locking padlock for at
least
five seconds within the next
ten seconds.
Switch
off the ignition.
Wait at least one minute before using
the
remote control.
The
remote control is now working
again.
Use only identical batteries or
batteries of an equivalent type to
those recommended by CITROËN
dealers.
Do not discard the remote control
batteries, they contain metals which
are
harmful
to
the
environment.
Deposit them at a CITROËN
dealership, or at an authorised
collection
point.
Unfolding / folding
Changing the battery
Battery ref.: CR1620 / 3 volts.
The "battery flat" information is given
by an audible signal, accompanied by
a
message in the screen.
To replace the battery, unclip the
casing
using a coin at the ring.
If
the remote control does not work
after the battery has been changed,
reinitialise
the remote control.
There
is a risk of damage if the
replacement battery is not the correct
type.If you do not press the button,
you
may damage the key's
folding
mechanism.

Don't forget
When leaving the vehicle, check that
the lighting is of
f and nothing of value
is
visible.
As a safety precaution (with children
on
board), remove the key from the
ignition when leaving the vehicle, even
for
a short time.
Good practice
Do not make any modifications to the electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even
when
it is in your pocket, may result in
involuntary
unlocking of the doors.
The simultaneous use of other
high frequency equipment (mobile
telephones, domestic alarms…), may
interfere with the operation of the
remote
control temporarily.
The remote control does not operate
while
the key is in the ignition, even if
the
ignition is off.
ELECTRONIC
IMMOBILISER
If you lose your keys
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the
vehicle's V5 registration certificate and
your
identification document.
A CITROËN dealer will be able
to
retrieve the key code and
the transponder code so that a
replacement
key can be ordered.When purchasing a second-hand
vehicle,
have the keys memorised by
a CITROËN dealer
, so as to be sure
that the keys in your possession are
the only ones that can be used to start
the
vehicle.
ALARM
If fitted on your vehicle, this provides two
types of protection:
-
exterior
protection: it sounds if a
front/rear
door or the bonnet is
opened.
-
interior
protection: it sounds if
the volume inside the passenger
compartment
changes (breaking of
a window or a movement inside the
vehicle).
If
your
vehicle
is
fitted
with
a
separation
partition, the interior protection is not
active
in the load space.
Locking the vehicle with
complete alarm
Setting the alarm
- Switch off the ignition and get out of
the vehicle.
-
Set
the alarm within five minutes of
getting
out of the vehicle, by locking
or
deadlocking using the remote
control.
The
red LED, located in the
button,
flashes once per second.
All of the keys contain an electronic immobiliser device.
This
device locks the engine supply
system.
It is activated automatically
when
the key is removed from the
ignition.
After the ignition is switched on, a
dialogue
is established between the key
and
the electronic immobiliser system.
The
metal part of the key must be
unfolded correctly for correct dialogue
to
take place.

FRONT DOORS
From the inside
Use the door opening control to unlock and open the door concerned.
From the outside
Use the remote control to lock/unlock the vehicle.
Insert
the metal part of the key in the
lock
on the driver's side if the remote
control
does not work.
Disarming
- Unlock the vehicle with the remote control or switch on the ignition, the
red
LED goes off.
Locking the vehicle with
exterior protection only
If, while you are away from the vehicle,
you wish to leave a window partially
open or a pet inside the vehicle, you
should
choose exterior protection only.
-
Switch
off the ignition.
-
In the next ten seconds,
press the button until the
red
LED
is
on
continuously
.
- Get out of the vehicle.
-
Within
the next five minutes, set
the
alarm by locking or deadlocking
using the remote control (the red
LED
flashes once a second).
Triggering
The siren sounds, the direction indicators
flash for approximately 30 seconds and
the
red LED flashes rapidly.
- To switch it off, insert the key and switch on the ignition.
When the alarm has been triggered ten
times in succession (when triggered for the
eleventh
time) it is deactivated. Repeat the
procedure
for setting the alarm.
Locking the vehicle without

Unlock the doors with the key and open the door. The alarm is triggered.
- Switch on the ignition in the
next ten seconds. The alarm is
disarmed.
Incorrect operation
When the ignition is switched on, if the
red LED remains on for ten seconds,
there
is a fault in the siren connection.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system
checked.
Automatic setting of the alarm

SLIDING SIDE DOORS
From the outside
Pull the handle towards you then
towards the rear and open the side
door guiding the rearward sliding to
beyond the point of resistance to hold
it open.
A mechanical system prevents opening
of the left-hand side door when the fuel
filler
flap is open.
From the inside
Unlock the side door using this handle and open it, guiding the rearward
sliding to the point of resistance. Pass
this
point to hold the door open.
Close the side door using the handle
to start the sliding and pass the point
of
resistance.
Then,
use the shaped
recess at the top of the door pilla
r to
guide
the door until it locks.
Do not use the grab handle to slide the
door.
Good practice
Take care not to block the guide space on the floor to allow the door to slide
correctly
.
If
your vehicle is parked on a slope,
guide
the sliding of the side door. In
fact, the door could open or close more
rapidly due to the slope of the ground
and
could cause injury.
For safety and operation reasons, do
not drive with the sliding side doors
open.
