Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday
practices that allow the motorist to optimise their
fuel consumption and CO
2emissions.
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 and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The gear efficiency 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 attitudes
help to save fuel, reduce CO
2 emissions and
decrease general traffic noise.
If the vehicle has the steering-mounted
"CRUISE" control, use cruise control at speeds
above 25 mph (40

km/h) when the traffic is
flowing well.
Use electrical equipment wisely
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 (sunroof blind and window blinds, etc.).
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.
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.
As a passenger, avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (film, music, video game,
etc.) to help reduce consumption of electrical
energy, and hence fuel.
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 (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
summer tyres.
Comply with 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 overlook the spare wheel and, where
applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil,
oil filter

, air filter, passenger compartment filter,
etc.) and observe the schedule of operations in
the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system
is faulty, 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 regulatory
compliance.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the third nozzle cut-out, to avoid overflow.
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).

Eco mode
This mode optimises the heating and
air conditioning functions to reduce fuel
consumption.
Activation/Deactivation



► To activate or deactivate this mode, press this
button.
The indicator lamp is illuminated when the
system is activated.
Eco-coaching
This function provides you with advice and
information to help you adopt a more economical
and environmentally friendly driving style.
It takes into account multiple parameters,
including braking optimisation, acceleration
management, gear changes, tyre inflation and
use of the heating/air conditioning systems.
Information displayed on the instrument
panel
By selecting the "Eco-coaching" tab of
the central display in the matrix instrument panel, you can assess your driving in
real time with the braking and acceleration
indicator.
Information displayed on the touch screen
The four tabs - "Trip", "Air conditioning
",
"Maintenance" and "Driving" - provide tips to
help you optimise your driving style.
Information relating to the driving style may also
be displayed in real time.
The "Report" tab assesses your driving style on
a daily basis and gives an overall score for the
week.
You can reset this report at any time by pressing
"Reset ".
With CITROËN Connect Radio
► In the " Applications " menu, select
"Eco-coaching".
With CITROËN Connect Nav

A few definitions…
Range
(miles or km)Distance that can still be travelled with the
fuel remaining in the tank (based on the
average fuel consumption over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled).
This value may vary following a change in the driving style or terrain, resulting in
a significant change in the spot fuel
consumption.
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.
Spot fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)Calculated during the last few seconds.
This function is only displayed at speeds above 19 mph (30 km/h).
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)Calculated since the last trip computer
reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)Calculated since the last trip computer
reset.
Distance travelled
(miles or km)Calculated since the last trip computer
reset.
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 mode
during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on.
Setting the date and time

3Refitting the armrest

► Slot the armrest into the backrest, ensuring
that you align the bayonet lugs with the holes.
►

Push the armrest shaft towards the backrest.
►


While holding it in this position, rotate the
armrest towards the front.

The armrest is once
again secured onto the backrest.
Retractable position

► If the centre console inconveniences you,
remove the passenger's seat armrest.
►

Push the control rearwards fully to tilt and
guide the assembly

.
This position allows you to transport long loads
inside the vehicle with the doors closed.
When retracted, the maximum permitted weight
on the backrest is 50
kg.
►

T
o reposition the seat cushion, raise the
backrest until it locks in the raised position.
Heated seat control


► Approximately 30 seconds after starting the
engine, press the control.
The temperature is controlled automatically
.
Pressing again interrupts operation.
If you press the control while the engine
is not running, the request will be
memorised for approximately 2 minutes.
Do not use the function when the seat
is not occupied.
Reduce the heating intensity as soon as
possible.
When the seat and passenger compartment
have reached a satisfactory temperature,
switch the function off; reducing electricity
consumption in turn decreases fuel
consumption.
Prolonged use of the heated seats 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.).
To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent
a short circuit:
–

do not place sharp or heavy objects on the
seat,
–


do not kneel or stand on the seat,
–


do not spill liquids onto the seat,
–


never use the heating function if the seat
is wet.

remotely via the remote control.
It flashes during the whole duration of the
heating and goes off at the end of the heating
cycle or when stopped using the remote control.
Ventilation
This system allows ventilation of the passenger
compartment with exterior air to improve the
temperature experienced on entering the vehicle
in summer.
Programming

► Press the MENU button to access the
main menu.
►

Select "
Pre-heat. / Pre-ventil.".
►

Select "
Activation" and, if necessary, for
programming, “Parameters".
►

Select "
Heating" to heat the engine and
passenger compartment or " Ventilation" to
ventilate the passenger compartment.


► Select:
• the first clock to set/save the time at which
the pre-heating temperature will be reached,
•

the second clock to set/save a second time
at which the pre-heating temperature will be
reached,
Using these two clocks and depending
on the season you can, for example,
select one or the other start time.
A message on the screen confirms your
choice.
