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.
Eco- driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your
gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and
change up without waiting. While accelerating,
change up early.
With an automatic 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 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 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 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 (sunroof blind and window blinds, etc.).
Switch off the headlamps and foglamps when
the visibility conditions do not require their
use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up
much faster while driving.
Unless it has automatic regulation, switch off
the air conditioning as soon as the desired
temperature has been reached.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls,
if these are not automatically managed.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.

Alarm
Self-protection function
The system checks for the disconnection
of any of its components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery,
button or siren wiring is disconnected or
damaged.
For all work on the alarm system,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Exterior perimeter monitoring
The system checks whether the vehicle is
opened.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to open
one of the doors or the bonnet.
Interior volumetric monitoring
The system checks for any variation in the
volume in the passenger compartment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a
window, enters the passenger compartment or
moves inside the vehicle.If your vehicle is fitted with Additional
heating/ventilation, interior volumetric
monitoring
is not compatible with this system.
For more information on Additional
heating/ventilation , refer to the
corresponding section.
Anti-tilt monitoring Locking the vehicle with full
alarm system
Activation
Following an instruction to lock the
vehicle, the exterior perimeter monitoring
is activated after 5
seconds and the
interior volumetric and anti-tilt monitoring
after 45
seconds.
If an opening (door, tailgate or bonnet)
is not closed properly, the vehicle is
not locked but the exterior perimeter
monitoring will be activated after
45
seconds at the same time as the
interior volumetric and anti-tilt monitoring.
In the case of a steep slope, the door
may be driven by its own weight and
as a consequence may open or close
violently
.
Take care not to leave the vehicle on a
steep slope with the door(s) open without
supervision. If this advice is not followed,
injuries or damage may occur if a person
or an object is trapped or caught.
The system checks for any change in the
attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle is lifted or
moved.When the vehicle is parked, the alarm will
not be triggered if the vehicle is knocked. F
