1In the event of a malfunction of the
electric gauge, the oil level is no longer
monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check the
engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located in the engine compartment.
For more information on Checking levels,
refer to the corresponding section.
Coolant temperature
indicator
This information is only available in the
instrument panel's customisable area.
For more information on the Digital instrument
panel, refer to the corresponding section.


With the engine running:
– In zone A, the temperature is correct.
–

In zone
B, the temperature is too high.
The associated warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp light up in red on the
instrument panel, accompanied by the display of
a message and an audible signal.
You must stop the vehicle as soon as it is
safe to do so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off the
engine.
After switching off the ignition, carefully open the bonnet and check the coolant
level.
For more information on Checking
levels, refer to the corresponding
section.
Power indicator
(Rechargeable hybrid)
The power indicator shows in real time the power
demanded from the vehicle.
There are 3 zones:


POWER High power demand, using the combined capabilities of the petrol
engine and the electric motor.
The slider is located in this zone
during more dynamic driving phases
when high levels of performance are
being demanded.
ECO Optimal use of energy (internal combustion or electric).
The slider is located in this zone
when driving under electric power
and when optimal use is being made
of the petrol engine, both accessible
by adopting a suitable driving style.
A symbol indicates the threshold at
which the petrol engine will restart.
The driver can therefore moderate
their acceleration to remain in electric
driving mode.
CHARGE Energy recovery for partly recharging the traction battery.
The slider is located in this zone
during deceleration: taking your foot
off the accelerator pedal or braking.
Partial recharging of the battery by
energy recovery has no effect on the
charge level indicator.
Charge level indicator
(Rechargeable hybrid)


The charge level of the traction battery and
the remaining range in electric driving mode
are permanently displayed when the vehicle is
switched on.

20
Instruments
The range displayed depends on the use of the vehicle (type of driving and speed),
the outside temperature and the activated
comfort equipment.

Total distance recorder
The total distance recorder measures the total
distance travelled by the vehicle since its initial
registration.
With the ignition on, the total distance is
displayed at all times. It remains displayed for
30
seconds after switching off the ignition. It is
displayed when the driver's door is opened, and
when the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
When travelling abroad, it may be
necessary to change the distance units
(km or miles): the road speed must be
displayed in the local country’s official unit
(km/h or mph).
The unit is changed via the application of
screen settings, with the vehicle stationary.

The total distance recorder is only
accessible from the trip computer.

For more information on Charging the traction
battery (Rechargeable hybrid), refer to the
corresponding section.
e-SAVE
The e-SAVE function makes it possible to
reserve all or part of the electrical energy of the
traction battery to be used later during a journey
(e.g.
passing through an urban area or an area
reserved for electric vehicles).
►

Activate the function by pressing ON

, then
select the electric range to be reserved ( 6 miles
(10 km), 12 miles (20 km) or the full range
MAX).
Activation of the function is confirmed by the lighting of this indicator lamp on the
instrument panel and the
indication of the energy
reserve in miles or kms.
►

T

o use the energy reserve, choose the
Electric driving mode in the mode selector.
If the requested range exceeds the
available range (not recommended), the
internal combustion engine starts to recharge
the traction battery up to the requested
threshold. This leads to excessive fuel
consumption.

to enter the passenger compartment in an
emergency.
As a safety precaution, take the electronic key
with you when leaving the vehicle, even for a
short time.
Purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the key codes memorised by a
CITROËN dealer, to ensure that the keys in
your possession are the only ones able to
start the vehicle.
Proximity Keyless Entry
and Start
