2017 Citroen C3 RHD brake light

160
Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions).Before switching off the engine, you can engage
position
P or N to place the gearbox in neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle.
Stopping the vehicle
There is a risk of damage to the
gearbox:
-

i
f you press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time,
-

i
f you force the movement of the
selector from the P position to
another position when the battery
is
flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when at
a prolonged standstill with the engine
running (traffic jam, etc.), put the
selector in the N position and apply the
parking brake.
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, a warning
message appears in the screen.
F

R

eturn the selector to position P
;
the message disappears.
When driving on flooded roads or when
crossing a ford, proceed at walking
pace.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, the lighting
of this warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message in the
multifunction screen, indicates 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.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.

Stop & Start
Going into engine STOP mode
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition. 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, etc.
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.).
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.
With a manual gearbox
, vehicle
stationary, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel
and the engine goes into standby
automatically when you place the
gear lever in neutral and you release
the clutch pedal.
With an automatic gearbox ,
vehicle stationary, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel
and the engine goes into standby
automatically when you press
the brake pedal or place the gear
selector in position N .
Stop & Star t time counter
(minutes / seconds or hours / minutes) A time counter calculates the time
spent in STOP mode during a
j o u r n ey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on.

Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
Brake pads
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Brake disc wearOnly use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
units as important as those in the
braking system, CITROËN selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness,
or in wintry conditions, ice can form
on the brake discs and pads: braking
efficiency may be reduced. Make light
brake applications to dry and defrost
the brakes.Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service
schedule for the checking interval for
this component.
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service
schedule for the checking interval for
this component.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must be
checked, even between two services.
Checking this system must be done by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
have the condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.

Practical information

249
Engines
Engine characteristics
The engine characteristics (capacity, maximum
power, maximum engine speed, fuel, CO
2
emissions, etc.) for your vehicle are given in
the registration document, as well as in sales
brochures.
These characteristics correspond to the
values type-approved on a test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive
1

999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Weights
Weights and towed loads
The maximum weights and towed loads for your
vehicle are given are given in the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also present on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The kerb weight is equal to the unladen
weight
+ driver (75 kg).
The GTW and towed load values indicated
apply up to a maximum altitude of
1
000 metres; the towed load mentioned
must be reduced by 10 % for every additional
1
000 metres.
The weight of the braked trailer can be
increased, within the GTW limit, on condition
that the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced
by the same amount.
The recommended nose weight is the vertical
load on the towbar ball (removable with or
without tools).
GV W: gross vehicle weight, the maximum
authorised vehicle weight.
GT W: gross train weight, the maximum
authorised weight of vehicle plus trailer. High exterior temperatures may result
in a reduction in the per formance of
the vehicle to protect the engine; when
the exterior temperature is higher than
37
°C, limit the towed weight.
Towing with a lightly loaded vehicle can
adversely affect roadholding.
Braking distances are increased when
towing a trailer.
Never exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) when
towing (comply with the legislation in
force in your country).
If the exterior temperature is high, it
is recommended that the engine be
allowed to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after
the vehicle comes to a stop, to facilitate
its cooling.
