Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday 
practices that allow the motorist to optimise 
the vehicle's energy consumption (fuel and/or 
electricity) and CO
2 emissions.
Optimise your use of the gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and 
change up promptly. While accelerating, change 
up early.
With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic 
mode. Do not depress the accelerator pedal 
heavily or suddenly.
The gear shift indicator prompts you to engage 
the most suitable gear. Whenever this indication 
is displayed on the instrument panel, follow it 
straight away.
With an 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 gradually. These practices 
help to save on energy consumption, reduce 
CO
2 emissions and decrease general traffic 
noise.
Favour the use of the "Eco" driving mode.
With an EAT8 gearbox, with the gear selector 
in mode D, favour "free-wheeling" by gradually 
lifting your foot fully off the accelerator pedal in 
order to save fuel. When the traffic is flowing smoothly, select the 
cruise control.
Control the use of 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.
At speeds above 31
  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 (e.g.
  sunroof blind, window blinds).
Unless automatically regulated, switch off the air 
conditioning as soon as the desired temperature 
has been reached.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting functions, 
if they are not managed automatically.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Adapt your use of the headlamps and/or 
foglamps to the level of visibility, in accordance 
with current legislation in the country in which 
you are driving.
Avoid running the engine before moving off, 
particularly in winter (other than in severe wintry 
conditions: temperature below -23°C). The 
vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, avoid connecting your 
multimedia devices (e.g.
  film, music, video 
game) to help reduce the consumption of energy.
Disconnect all portable devices before leaving 
the vehicle.
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle. Place the 
heaviest items in the boot as close as possible to 
the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and 
minimise wind resistance (e.g.
  roof bars, roof 
rack, bicycle carrier, trailer). Preferably, use a 
roof box.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit 
summer tyres.
Comply with the servicing instructions
Check tyre pressures regularly, with the tyres 
cold, referring to the label in the door aperture on 
the 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.
Do not forget the spare wheel and, where 
applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (e.g.
  engine 
oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment 
filter, etc.). Observe the schedule of operations in 
the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system 
has a fault, your vehicle will emit pollution. Visit 
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop 
as soon as possible to restore your vehicle's 
nitrogen oxide emissions to legal levels.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after 
the third cut-out of the nozzle, to avoid overflow.    

136
Driving
Restarting the engine (START mode)
The engine automatically restarts as soon as the 
driver indicates the intention of moving off again:
With a manual gearbox: with the clutch pedal 
fully depressed.
With an automatic gearbox:
– 
With the selector in position  D
 or M: with the 
brake pedal released.
–
 
With the selector in position  N
 and the brake 
pedal released: with the selector at  D or M.
–
 
With the selector in position  P
 and the brake 
pedal depressed: with the selector at  R, N, D 
or M.
–
 
Reverse gear engaged.
Special cases
The engine will restart automatically if the 
conditions for operation are met again and in the 
following case:
– 
V
 ehicle speed exceeds 2 mph (3   km/h) 
(depending on engine).
In this case, this indicator lamp flashes for 
a few seconds, then goes off.
Malfunctions
Depending on the vehicle’s equipment:In the event of a system malfunction, this 
warning lamp flashes on the instrument 
panel.
The warning lamp in this button flashes  and a message appears, accompanied by 
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
The vehicle stalls in STOP mode
All of the instrument panel warning lamps come 
on if there is a fault.
Depending on version, a warning message 
may also be displayed, prompting you to place 
the gear selector in position  N and depress the 
brake pedal.
►
 
Switch off the ignition then start the engine 
again with the key or the " ST
ART/STOP" button.
12 V battery
The Stop & Start system requires a 
12 V battery of specific technology and 
specification.
All work must be carried out only by a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
Tyre under-inflation  detection
This system alerts the driver if one or more tyres 
suffer a drop in pressure.
The alert is raised when the vehicle is moving, 
not when stationary.
It compares the information given by the wheel 
speed sensors with  reference values, which 
must be reinitialised every time the tyre 
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.
It takes into account the last values stored 
during the reinitialisation request. It is therefore 
essential that the tyre pressure is correct during 
the operation. This operation is the driver’s 
responsibility.
The tyre under-inflation detection cannot,  in any circumstances, replace the need 
for vigilance on the part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to 
regularly check the tyre pressures (including 
the spare wheel), especially before a long 
journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly 
in adverse conditions (heavy load, high 
speed, long journey):
–
 
worsens road-holding.
–
 
lengthens braking distances.
–
 
causes premature wear of the tyres.
–
 
increases energy consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for the  vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure 
label.
For more information on the  Identification 
markings, refer to the corresponding section.
Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done monthly 
when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 
1 hour or after a journey of less than 6 miles 
(10
 
km) at moderate speeds).
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures 
shown on the label.   

137
Driving
6Snow chains
The system does not have to be 
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow 
chains.
Spare wheel
The steel spare wheel does not have an 
under-inflation detection sensor.
Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed illumination  of this warning lamp, accompanied by an 
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the 
display of a message.
►
 
Reduce speed immediately
 , avoid excessive 
steering movements and avoid sudden braking.
►
 
Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do 
so.
The loss of pressure detected may not  always cause visible deformation of the 
tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
►
 
Using a compressor
 , such as the one in 
the temporary puncture repair kit, check the 
pressures of all four tyres when cold.
►
 
If it is not possible to carry out this check 
immediately
, drive carefully at reduced speed.
►
 
In the event of a puncture, use the 
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel 
(depending on equipment).
Driving too slowly may not ensure 
optimum monitoring.
The alert is not immediately triggered in the 
event of a sudden loss of pressure or tyre 
blow-out. This is because analysis of the 
values read by the wheel's speed sensors 
can take several minutes.
The alert may be delayed at speeds below 
25 mph (40 km/h), or when adopting a sporty 
driving mode.
The alert is kept active until the system is  reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
► The system must be reinitialised after any 
adjustment to the pressure of one or more tyres, 
and after changing one or more wheels.
Before reinitialising the system, make 
sure that the pressures of the four tyres 
are correct for the conditions of use of the 
vehicle and conform to the values written on 
the tyre pressure label.
Check the pressures of the four tyres before 
performing the reinitialisation.
The system does not advise if a pressure is 
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
Without touch screen 
 
 
 
► With the vehicle stationary , press this 
button for about 3 seconds then release it. 
Reinitialisation is confirmed by an audible signal.
With touch screen
With the vehicle stationary, the 
system is reinitialised via the 
Driving/Vehicle touch screen menu.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, 
these warning lamps light up on 
the instrument panel.
In this case, the tyre under-inflation monitoring 
function is no longer performed.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Non-standard spare wheel
The use of this type of spare wheel may 
suspend tyre pressure monitoring.
In this case, the malfunction warning lamp 
comes on and disappears once the wheel 
has been replaced by one of uniform size (the    

142
Driving
instrument panel must match that of the 
country you are driving in.
Automatic sign reading is a driving aid system and does not always display the 
correct speed limits.
The speed limit signs present on the road 
always take priority over those displayed by 
the system. 
The system is designed to detect signs that 
conform to the Vienna Convention on road 
signs.
Specific speed limits, such as those for 
heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit on the 
instrument panel is updated when passing 
a speed limit sign intended for cars (light 
vehicles).
Activation/Deactivation
By default, the system is automatically activated 
at every engine start.
The settings are changed via  the   Driving/Vehicle   touch screen 
menu.
Information displayed on 
the instrument panel
 
 
1. Detected speed limit indication
or
2. End of speed limit indication
 
 
The system is active but is not detecting speed 
limit information.
 
 
On detecting speed limit information, the system 
displays the value.
 
 
For a suggested maximum speed, the first time 
that the vehicle exceeds it
 by more than 3 mph 
(5
  km/h) (e.g. 59 mph (95   km/h)), the speed is 
displayed and flashes for 10 seconds (depending 
on version).
Operating limits
The system does not take account of reduced 
speed limits, especially those imposed in the 
following cases:
–
 
Atmospheric pollution.
–
  Towing.
–
 
Driving with a space-saver type spare wheel 
or snow chains fitted.
–
 
T
 yre repaired using the temporary puncture 
repair kit.
–
 
Y
 oung drivers.
The system may not display the speed limit if it 
does not detect a speed limit sign within a preset 
period and in the following situations:
–
 
Road signs that are obstructed, non-standard, 
damaged or bent.
–
 
Obsolete or incorrect maps.
Recommendation 
 
In addition to Road signs recognition , the 
driver can select the speed displayed as a speed 
setting for the speed limiter or cruise control 
using the speed limiter or cruise control 'store' 
button.

Driving
Cruise control - Specific 
recommendations
The cruise control function does not guarantee compliance with the maximum 
authorised speed and the safety distance 
between vehicles, the driver remains 
responsible for their driving.
In the interest of public safety, only use cruise 
control if the traffic conditions enable vehicles 
to drive at a steady speed and maintain an 
adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant while cruise control is 
activated. If you press and hold one of the 
speed setting modification buttons, your 
vehicle may change speed very abruptly.
When descending a steep hill , the cruise 
control system cannot prevent the vehicle 
from exceeding the set speed. Brake if 
necessary to control the vehicle speed.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set 
speed may not be reached or maintained.
Exceeding the programmed speed 
setting
You can temporarily exceed the speed 
setting by pressing the accelerator pedal (the 
programmed speed flashes).
To return to the speed setting, release the 
accelerator pedal (when the set speed is 
reached again, the displayed speed stops 
flashing).
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following 
situations:
–
 
In an urban area with the risk of 
pedestrians crossing the road.
–
 
In heavy traffic (except versions with the 
Stop & Go function).
–
 
On winding or steep roads.
–
 
On slippery or flooded roads.
–
 
In poor weather conditions.
–
 
In the event of restricted visibility for the 
driver
.
–
 
Driving on a speed circuit.
–
 
Driving on a rolling road.
–
 
When using a ‘space-saver
 ’ type spare 
wheel.
–
 
When using snow chains, non-slip covers 
or studded tyres.
Programmable cruise 
control
For more information, refer to the 
General recommendations on the use 
of driving and manoeuvring aids  and the 
Cruise control - particular 
recommendations.
This system automatically maintains the  vehicle’s speed at the value programmed 
by the driver (speed setting), without the use of 
the accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is switched on manually.
It requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph 
(40
  km/h).
With a manual gearbox, third gear or higher must 
be engaged.
With an automatic gearbox, mode
 
D
  or second 
gear or higher in mode
 
M
  must be engaged.
With a drive selector, mode
  D or B must be 
engaged.
Cruise control remains active after 
changing gear, regardless of the gearbox 
type, on engines fitted with the Stop & Start 
function.
Switching off the ignition cancels any 
speed setting.
Steering-mounted control 
 
1. ON (CRUISE position)/OFF (position 0)
2. Activate cruise control at the current speed/
decrease speed setting

Following 
 an impact to the windscreen close to 
the detection camera.
The system is automatically deactivated  when the use of certain types of 
"space-saver" spare wheel (smaller diameter) 
is detected, or if a fault with the brake pedal 
switch or at least two brake lamps is detected.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake 
lamps are not in perfect working order.
The driver must not overload the vehicle  (keep within the GVW limit and load 
height limits for roof bars).
It is possible that warnings are not given, 
are given too late or seem unjustified.
The driver must always stay in control of the 
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time 
to avoid an accident.
Following an impact, the system is 
automatically deactivated.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Collision Risk Alert
This function warns the driver that their vehicle 
is at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front or 
with a pedestrian present in their traffic lane.
Operation
Depending on the degree of risk of collision 
detected by the system and the alert trigger 
threshold chosen by the driver, several different 
levels of alert may be triggered and displayed on 
the instrument panel.
The system takes account of the vehicle 
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the one 
in front, the environmental conditions and the 
operation of the vehicle (actions on the pedals, 
steering wheel, etc.) to trigger the alert at the 
most relevant moment.
(orange)
Level 1: visual alert only, warning you 
that the vehicle in front is very close.
The message
  "Vehicle close" is displayed.
(red)
Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning 
you that a collision is imminent.
The message "Brake! " is displayed.
Level 3: in some cases, a vibration alert in the 
form of micro-braking can be given, confirming 
the risk of collision.
Where the speed of your vehicle is too 
high approaching another vehicle, the 
first level of alert may not be displayed: the 
level 2 alert may be displayed directly.
Important: the level 1 alert is not displayed 
when there is a stationary obstacle or when 
the "Close" trigger threshold has been 
selected.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
This trigger threshold determines the sensitivity 
with which the function warns of the risk of 
collision.
The threshold is set via  theDriving/Vehicle touch screen 
menu.
►
 
Select one of the three pre-defined 
thresholds: "Far", "Normal" or "Close".
The last threshold selected is memorised when 
the ignition is switched off.
