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.

Front seats
For safety reasons, the driver's seat must
only be adjusted when the vehicle is
stationary.
Correct driving position
Before taking to the road and to make the most
of the ergonomic layout of the instruments and
controls, carry out these adjustments in the
following order:
-
h

ackrest angle,
-
sea

t cushion height,
-
l

ongitudinal position of the seat,
-
hei

Height
(driver only)
F Pull the control C upwards to raise the seat or push it downwards to lower it, as many
times as required, to obtain the desired
position.
Passenger seat backrest angle
F Turn the knob B or pull control B up to adjust the backrest.
When the backrest is correctly inclined, release
the control.
To prevent the backrest from suddenly
folding for wards and hitting you, hold the
backrest with your back or hand while you
move the control.
Before moving the seat backwards,
ensure that there is no object or person in
the way, preventing full travel of the seat.
There is a risk of trapping or pinching
passengers if present in the rear seats
or jamming the seat if large objects are
placed on the floor behind the seat.
Passenger seat backrest
table position
Check that no object, either on or
underneath the seat, could hinder its
movement.
F

P
lace the head restraint in the low position.
F

P
ull control B fully for wards and tilt the
backrest forwards.
To return to the normal position, guide the
backrest backwards until it locks into place.
This position, together with that of the rear
seats, allows you to transport long objects
inside the vehicle.
Ease of use and comfort

59
Before moving the seat backwards,
ensure that there is nothing that might
prevent the full travel of the seat.
When the front passenger seat is fully
folded, only the outer rear seat behind the
driver can be occupied by a passenger.
Do not place hard, heavy or sharp objects
in the centre of the folded backrest to
ensure that you do not damage rear lining
behind the backrest.
When sharp deceleration occurs, objects
placed on the folded backrest can turn into
dangerous projectiles.Front head restraints

level desired:

Do not use the function when the seat is
not occupied.

soon as possible.
When the seat and passenger
compartment have reached an
adequate temperature, you can stop
the function; reducing the consumption
of electrical current reduces fuel
consumption. Prolonged use at the highest setting is
not recommended for those with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (illness,
taking medication, etc.).
