Eco- driving
Optimise the use of your
gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently
and change up without waiting. When
accelerating, change up early.
With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic
mode and avoid pressing the accelerator
pedal heavily or suddenly.
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
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.
Consider using equipment that can help keep
the temperature in the passenger compartment
down (sunroof and window blinds, etc.).
Unless it has automatic regulation, switch off
the air conditioning as soon as the desired
temperature has been reached.
Switch off the headlamps and foglamps when
the ambient light level does not require their
use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up
much faster while driving.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls,
if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat control as soon as
possible.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (film, music, video game,
etc.), you will contribute towards limiting the
consumption of electrical energy, and so of
fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before
leaving the vehicle.
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 automatic gearbox,
this indicator appears only in manual mode. Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices
that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions.
Eco-driving

7
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, etc.). Preferably, use a
roof box.
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:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use. Have your vehicle ser viced regularly
(engine oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger
compartment filter, etc.) and obser ve 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. Visit a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible to
make your vehicle’s level of nitrogen oxide
emissions compliant to the standard.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3
rd
cut-off of the nozzle, to avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only
after approximately the first 1,850 miles
(3,000
kilometres) that you will see the fuel
consumption settle down to a consistent average.
Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan.

Low fuel levelFixed, accompanied
by an audible signal
and a message. When it first comes on, around
5
litres of fuel remain in the tank.
You are now starting to use the fuel
reserve. You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid running
out of fuel.
Until sufficient fuel has been added, this warning
lamp reappears every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by an audible warning and a message.
This audible warning and this message are repeated
with increasing frequency as the level drops towards
" 0 ".
Tank capacity: approximately 45


litres.
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel as
this could damage the emission control and injection
systems.
Presence of
water in the
Diesel fuel *Fixed.
The Diesel filter contains water. Risk of damaging the fuel injection system on Diesel
engines.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
as soon as possible.
Warning/indicator lamp
StateCause Action/Observations
Par ticle filter
(Diesel) Fixed, accompanied
by an audible signal
and a message about
the risk of particle
filter blockage. This indicates that the particle filter
is beginning to saturate.
Traffic conditions permitting, regenerate the filter by
driving at a speed of at least 37 mph (60 km/h) until
the warning lamp goes off.
For more information on Checks and particularly
those related to the particle filter, refer to the
corresponding section.
Fixed, accompanied
by an audible signal
and a message about
the particle filter’s
additive level being
too low. This indicates that the level in the
additive tank is low.
Quickly arrange for a top-up by a CITROËN dealer or
by a qualified workshop.
For more information on Checking levels
and
particularly on the level of additive, refer to the
corresponding section.

Range
(miles or km)The distance which can
still be travelled with the
fuel remaining in the tank
(related to the average
fuel consumption over the
last few miles (kilometres)
travelled).
This value may fluctuate if a change
of driving style or terrain results in a
significant change in the current fuel
consumption. After filling with at least 5
litres of fuel, the
range is recalculated and is displayed if it
exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If dashes instead of figures continue to
be displayed when driving, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
