Ease of use and comfort
3The additional heating must always be
switched off while refuelling to avoid any risk
of fire or explosion.
To avoid the risk of poisoning or asphyxia, the programmable heating
must not be used, even for short periods, in a
closed environment such as a garage or
workshop which is not equipped with an
exhaust gas extraction system.
Do not park the vehicle on a flammable
surface (dry grass, dead leaves, paper, etc.)
- Risk of fire!
Glazed surfaces such as the rear screen
or windscreen can become very hot in
places.
Never put objects on these surfaces; never
touch these surfaces - Risk of burns!
Independent additional
heating
Depending on the country of sale, this is an
additional and independent system which heats
the hot water circuit of the Diesel engine to
improve comfort and to raise the temperature
of the cold engine. It improves demisting and
defrosting performance. With the engine idling
or the vehicle stationary, it is normal to notice a
high-pitched whistling and some emissions of
smoke or odour.
The temperature near the heating system must
not exceed 120°C. A higher temperature (e.g. in
a paint oven) could damage the components of
electronic circuits.
The additional heating is supplied by the
vehicle's fuel tank. Make sure that the low fuel
warning lamp is not on.
To avoid the risks of poisoning or suffocation, the additional heating must
not be used, even for short periods, in a
closed environment such as a garage or
workshop which is not equipped with an
exhaust gas extraction system.
Do not park the vehicle on a flammable
surface (for example: dry grass, fallen
leaves, paper, etc.) - risk of fire!
Have the additional heating checked at
least once a year, at the beginning of
winter.
For maintenance and repairs, you must only
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Safety
An indicator lamp associated with each mode
comes on, accompanied by the display of a
message to confirm your choice.
Operating modes
Standard (ESC)
This mode is calibrated for a low level of wheel spin, based on the different levels
of grip normally encountered on the road.
Whenever the ignition is switched off, the
system automatically resets to this mode.
Snow
This mode adapts its strategy to the conditions of grip encountered for each of
the two front wheels on moving off.
(mode active up to 50 mph (80
km/h))
All terrain (mud, damp grass, etc.)
This mode, when moving off, allows considerable spin on the wheel with the
least grip to optimise clearing of the mud and to
regain grip. At the same time, the wheel with the
most grip is controlled in such a way as to
transmit as much torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.
(mode active up to 31 mph (50
km/h))
Sand
This mode allows little spin on the two driving wheels at the same time to allow
the vehicle to move forward and limit the risks of
getting stuck in the sand.
(mode active up to 75 mph (120
km/h))
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck.
Deactivation
You can deactivate the ASR and DSC systems by turning the knob to the "OFF"
position.
The ASR and DSC systems will no longer act on the operation of the engine
or of the brakes in the event of a change of
trajectory.
These systems are reactivated automatically
from 31 mph (50
km/h) and whenever the
ignition is switched on.
Recommendations
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive on tarmac roads but it allows you to
occasionally drive on other less passable
terrain.
However, it does not permit off-road driving
such as:
–
crossing and driving on terrain which
could damage the underbody or strip away
components (fuel pipe, fuel cooler
, etc.) due
to obstacles or stones in particular,
–
driving on terrain with steep gradients and
poor grip,
–
crossing a stream.
Seat belts
Inertia reel
The seat belts are equipped with an inertia
reel which allows the strap length to adjust
automatically to the shape of the user. The seat
belt returns to its storage automatically when it
is not used.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device which
automatically locks the strap in the event of a
collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls
144
Driving
– depress the clutch pedal.
Gear shift indicator
(Depending on engine)
This system is designed to reduce fuel
consumption by recommending the most suitable
gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and
the vehicle's equipment, the system may
recommend skipping one or more gears.
Gear engagement recommendations are
not to be considered mandatory. Indeed, the
configuration of the road, the traffic density and
safety remain determining factors when choosing
the best gear. Therefore, the driver remains
responsible for deciding whether or not to follow
the system’s advice.
The system cannot be deactivated.
On certain BlueHDi Diesel versions with a
manual gearbox, the system may suggest
shifting into neutral ( N is displayed on the
instrument panel) so that the engine can go into
standby (STOP mode of
Stop & Start), in certain
driving conditions.
With an automatic gearbox, the system is
only active in manual operation.
The information appears on the instrument panel, in the form of an "up" or
"down" arrow and the recommended gear.
The system adapts the gear change instructions according to the driving
conditions (e.g.
slope, load) and driving style
(e.g.
power demand, acceleration, braking).
The system never suggests:
–
engaging first gear
.
–
engaging reverse gear
.
Automatic gearbox
Automatic 6 or 8-speed gearbox, with electronic management of gear changes. It also offers a
manual mode with sequential gear changes
via control paddles located behind the steering
wheel.
Gear selector
To turn the gear selector in complete safety, it is recommended that you keep
your foot on the brake pedal.
P. Park.
R. Reverse.
N. Neutral.
D. Drive (automatic operation).
M. Manual (manual operation with sequential
changing of the gears).
Position N can be used in traffic jams or
in a car wash tunnel.
149
Driving
6When starting the vehicle, no mode can be
selected until the READY indicator lamp is
displayed.
When the message disappears, the selected
mode is activated and remains indicated on the
instrument panel (except Normal mode).
Each time the ignition is switched on, Normal
mode is selected by default.
Normal
This optimises the driving range and dynamic
performance.
To obtain maximum torque and power, depress
the accelerator pedal fully.
Eco
Optimises energy consumption, by reducing
the output of the heating and air conditioning
(without actually deactivating them) and limiting
both motor torque and power.
Power
Provides equivalent vehicle performance when
fully laden (GVW) to when the vehicle is in
Normal mode and when unladen.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
phases when the vehicle is stationary (e.g.
red
lights, traffic jams). The engine automatically
restarts - START mode - as soon as the driver
indicates the intention of moving off again.
Primarily designed for urban use, the function
is intended to reduce fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise level
when stationary.
The function does not affect the functionalities of
the vehicle, in particular the braking.
Driving on flooded roads
Before entering into a flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving
recommendations, particularly on flooded
roads, refer to the corresponding section.
Deactivation/Reactivation
With audio system
► To deactivate or reactivate the system, press
this button.
The indicator lamp is on when the system is
deactivated.
With touch screen
The settings are changed via the vehicle configuration menu.
If the system has been deactivated in
STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.
The system is reactivated automatically whenever the engine is started by the
driver.
