Driving
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and the
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise to
skip one or more gears.
Gear shift recommendations should not be
considered compulsory. In fact, the road layout,
the traffic density and safety remain the deciding
factors when choosing the best gear. The driver
therefore remains responsible for deciding
whether or not to follow the indications issued by
the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
On certain BlueHDi Diesel versions with
manual gearbox, the system may suggest
changing into neutral ( N is displayed in the
instrument panel) so that the engine can go into
standby (STOP mode with Stop & Start), in
certain driving conditions.
With an automatic gearbox, the system is
only active in manual operation.
The information appears in the instrument panel, in the form of an ascending or
descending arrow and the recommended gear.
The system adapts its gear shift recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the driver’s
requirements (request for power, acceleration,
braking, etc.).
The system never suggests:
–

engaging first gear
.
–

engaging reverse.
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.
Steering mounted controls

► Pull the right-hand " + " or left-hand "-" control
paddle towards you to change up or down.
The steering mounted controls do not allow neutral to be selected and reverse
gear to be engaged or disengaged.

but the selector is in another position,
place the selector in position P to allow the
engine to be started.
If position N is selected inadvertently while
driving, allow the engine to return to idle, then
select position D to accelerate.
When the engine is running at idle with
the brakes released, if position R, D or M
is selected, the vehicle moves even without
the accelerator being pressed.
Never leave children inside the vehicle
unsupervised.
As a safety measure, never leave the vehicle
without taking your key or remote control with
you, even for a short time.
When carrying out maintenance with the
engine running, apply the parking brake and
select position P.
With an automatic gearbox, never try to
start the engine by pushing the vehicle.
Automatic operation
► Select position D for automatic
changing of the gears.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any intervention on the part of the
driver. It continuously selects the most suitable
gear according to the driving style, the road
profile and the load in the vehicle.
► For maximum acceleration without
touching the selector , fully depress the
accelerator pedal (kick-down).
The gearbox changes down automatically or
holds the gear selected until the maximum
engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically to provide effective engine braking.
If you release the accelerator sharply, the
gearbox will not shift to a higher gear for safety
reasons.
Never select position N while the vehicle
is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless the
vehicle is completely stationary.
Temporary manual control
of gear changes
You can temporarily assume control of gear
changing using the " +" et "-” steering-mounted
controls. The gear change request will be
executed if the engine speed permits.
This function allows you to anticipate certain
situations, such as overtaking another vehicle or
approaching a bend in the road.
After a few seconds with no inputs via the control
paddles, the gearbox reverts to automatic
operation.

148
Driving
Creeping (moving without
using the accelerator)
This function facilitates manoeuvring of the
vehicle at low speed (when parking, in traffic
jams, etc.).
With the engine at idle, parking brake released
and position D, M or R selected, the vehicle
moves
as soon as you take your foot off
the brake pedal (even without pressing the
accelerator).
As a safety precaution, never leave the vehicle with the engine running and the
doors closed.
Manual operation
► With the selector in position D , press
button M to enable 6- or 8-speed
sequential
gear changing.
The indicator lamp for the button comes on.

shown in succession on the instrument
panel.
►

Y

ou can revert to automatic operation at any
time by pressing button M again.
The indicator lamp for the button goes off.
In manual mode, there is no need to
release the accelerator pedal while
changing gear.
It is only possible to change from one
gear to another if the vehicle speed and
engine speed permit.
If the engine speed is too low or too high,
the selected gear flashes for a few
seconds, then the gear actually engaged is
shown.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving very
slowly, the gearbox automatically selects gear
M1.
To preserve the brakes while descending a steep incline, use engine braking to
reduce your speed (change down or select a
lower gear).
Keeping the brake pedal pressed
continuously for long periods can overheat
the brakes, with the risk of damaging the
braking system or making it inoperative.
Only use the brakes when necessary, to slow
or stop the vehicle.
Depending on the road configuration
(e.g. mountainous road), manual
operation may be preferable.
Automatic operation may not always be
suitable, and does not enable engine braking.
Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear is not engaged correctly (gear selector between
two positions).
►

Place the selector "correctly" at a position.
Switching off the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, select position
P then apply the parking brake to immobilise
the vehicle, unless this is set to automatic mode
(with electric parking brake).
Check that mode
P has been engaged and that
the electric parking brake has been applied
automatically; if not, apply it manually.
The corresponding indicator lamps in the
selector and the electric parking brake control
lever must be on, as well as those on the
instrument panel.
A point of resistance may be noticed when moving to position P.
If the selector is not in position P, when the
driver's door is opened or approximately 45
seconds after the ignition is switched off,
an audible signal sounds and a message
appears.
►

Return the drive selector to position P

;
the audible signal stops and the message
disappears.
When positioned on a steep slope with a
loaded vehicle, depress the brake
pedal, select position P, apply the parking
brake, unless it is set to automatic mode (with
electric parking brake), then release the brake
pedal.
In all circumstances, ensure that the
selector is in position P before leaving
your vehicle.
Malfunction
When the ignition is on, a message appears on
the instrument panel to indicate a fault with the
gearbox.
In this case, the gearbox goes into back-up
mode and is locked in 3
rd gear. You may feel a
significant jolt (without risk to the gearbox) when
changing from P to R and from N to R.
Do not exceed 62 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
There is a risk of damaging the gearbox: – If the accelerator and brake pedals are
depressed simultaneously.
– In the event of a battery failure, forcing the
selector from position P to another position.

vehicle.

168
Driving
threshold chosen by the driver, several different
levels of alert may be triggered and displayed on
the instrument panel.
The system takes account of the vehicle
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the one
in front, the environmental conditions and the
operation of the vehicle (actions on the pedals,
steering wheel, etc.) to trigger the alert at the
most relevant moment.
Level 1 (orange): visual alert only,
warning that the vehicle in front is very
close.
The message
"Vehicle close" is displayed.
Level 2 (red): visual and audible alert,
warning that a collision is imminent.
The message "Brake! " is displayed.
Where the speed of your vehicle is too
high approaching another vehicle, the
first level of alert may not be displayed: the
level 2 alert may be displayed directly.
Important: the level 1 alert is not displayed
when there is a stationary obstacle or
when the "Near " trigger threshold has been
selected.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance (iEBA)
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid
a collision, this system will provide additional
braking, within the limits of the laws of physics. This assistance will only be provided if the driver
presses the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake

This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, intervenes following the alerts if the
driver does not react quickly enough and does
not operate the vehicle's brakes.
It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a
collision where the driver fails to react.
Operation
The system operates subject to the following
conditions:
–

The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph
(60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle or a cyclist
is detected.
–

The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and
53 mph (10

km/h and 85 km/h) (versions with
camera only) or 87 mph (140 km/h) (versions
with camera and radar) when a moving vehicle
is detected.
This warning lamp flashes (for approximately 10 seconds) as soon as
the function applies the vehicle’s brakes.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking bringing the
vehicle to a complete stop, keep the brake pedal
depressed to prevent the vehicle from moving
off again.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic
emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a
complete stop, the engine may stall.
The driver can maintain control of the vehicle at any time by firmly turning the
steering wheel and/or firmly depressing the
accelerator pedal.
The brake pedal may vibrate slightly while the function is operating.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2
seconds.
Deactivation / Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is set via the vehicle
configuration menu.
Deactivation of the system is signalled by
the illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp comes on on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If these warning lamps come on after the
engine has been switched off and then
restarted, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the system checked.
These warning lamps light up on the instrument panel to indicate
that the driver's and/or front passenger's seat
belt is not fastened (depending on version).
Lane departure warning

Practical information
7When the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the fan.
As the cooling system is pressurised, wait at
least one hour after switching off the engine
before carrying out any work.
In order to avoid the risk of scalding if you need
to top up in an emergency, wrap a cloth around
the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap
and top up to the required level.
(Electric)
Do not top up the coolant.
If the level is close to or below
the "MIN" mark, it is essential to contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Screenwash fluid
Top up to the required level when necessary.
Fluid specification
The fluid must be topped up with a pre-mixed
product.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a fluid
containing an anti-freeze agent which is
appropriate for the temperature conditions
must be used in order to protect the system's
components (pump, tank, ducts, jets).
Filling with pure water is prohibited in all
circumstances (risk of freezing,
limescale, etc.).
Diesel fuel additive (Diesel
with particle filter)
or On reaching the minimum level
in the particle filter additive tank,
this warning lamp comes on fixed, accompanied
by an audible signal and a warning message.
Topping up
The topping up of this additive must be carried
out quickly.
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
An alert is triggered when the reserve level is
reached.
For more information on the Indicators and in
particular the AdBlue range indicators, refer to
the corresponding section.
To avoid the vehicle being immobilised in
accordance with regulations, you must top up the
AdBlue tank.
For more information on AdBlue® (BlueHDi),
and in particular the supply of AdBlue, refer to
the corresponding section.
Checks
Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule and according
to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, CITROËN selects and offers
very specific products.
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
Check regularly that the terminals are correctly
tightened (versions without quick-release
terminals) and that the connections are clean.
