As a passenger, avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (film, music, video game,
etc.) to contribute towards reducing the
consumption of electrical energy, and so of
fuel.
Disconnect all portable devices before leaving
the vehicle.
Eco- driving
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 electronic gearbox, favour automatic
mode, without pressing the accelerator pedal
heavily or suddenly.
With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic
mode, without 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 gradually.
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 the steering-mounted
"CRUISE" control, make use of cruise control
at speeds above 25
mph (40
km/h) when the
traffic is flowing well.
Be proficient in 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.
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 Switch off the headlamps and front 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. compartment down (sunroof blind 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 demisting and defrosting
controls, if these are not automatically
managed.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions.
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.
With an electronic gearbox, this indicator
appears only in manual mode.
With an automatic gearbox, this indicator
appears only in manual mode.

Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle ; place
t he heaviest items in 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 the summer tyres.
Comply with servicing
instructions
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.
Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan. Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin filter, etc.) and
obser ve the schedule of operations in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
When filling the tank, do not continue after the
3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid over flow.
You will only see the fuel consumption
of your new vehicle settle down to a
consistent average after the first 1,900
miles
(3,000
kilometres).
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
bring your vehicle’s nitrogen oxides emissions
back in line with the regulations.

A few definitions
Range
(miles or km)
T he distance which can still be
travelled with the fuel remaining in
the tank (depending on the average
fuel consumption over the last
few
miles (kilometres) travelled). When the range falls below 19
miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed.
After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the
range is recalculated and is displayed if it
exceeds 62 miles (100 km).
If dashes instead of figures continue to be
displayed when driving, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
This value may vary following a change in
the style of driving or the terrain, resulting
in a significant change in the current fuel
consumption.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
C alculated during the last few
seconds.
This function is only displayed from 19 mph
(30
km/h).

Stop & Start time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time
counter calculates the time spent in STOP
