Eco-driving

Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

Familiarisation

Optimise the use of your gearbox

With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. During acceleration change up early.

With an automatic or electronic gearbox, give preference to automatic mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.

The gear shift indicator invites you engage the most suitable gear: as soon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it straight away. With an electronic or 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 progressively. These practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO emissions and also helps reduce the background traffic noise.

If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.

Control the use of your 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 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents open. Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the temperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window blinds...). Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regulation, as soon as the desired temperature is attained. Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not automatic. Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.

Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps when the level of light does 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, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting the consumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel. Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.

Limit the causes of excess consumption

Observe the recommendations on maintenance

Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the bottom of 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...). Use a roof box in preference. Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.

At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.

Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aperture, 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. Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.

Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and observe the schedule of operations recommended by the manufacturer.

When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any overflow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.

Service indicator

System which informs the driver when the next service is due, in accordance with the manufacturer's servicing schedule. The point at which the service is due is calculated from the last indicator zero reset. It is determined by two parameters:

- the distance travelled,

- the time elapsed since the last service.

More than 1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain before the next service is due

When the ignition is switched on, no service information appears in the screen.

Between 600 miles (1 000 km) and 1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain before the next service is due

For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner symbolising the service operations comes on. The distance recorder display line indicates the distance remaining before the next service is due. Example: 1 700 miles (2 800 km) remain before the next service is due. For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:

5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner goes off ; the distance recorder resumes its normal operation. The screen then indicates the total and trip distances.

Capacity of the tank: approximately 60 litres .

Opening

 Press the switch This switch remains active for a few minutes after switching off the ignition. If necessary, switch the ignition on again to reactivate it.

With Stop & Start, never refuel with the system in STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the START/STOP button.

Refuelling

Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to be registered by the fuel gauge. Opening the filler cap may result in an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely normal and results from the sealing of the fuel system.  Take care to select the pump that delivers

the correct fuel type for your vehicle's engine (reminder on a label on the inside of the filler flap).

 Open the filler cap by turning it a 1/4 turn to

the left.

 Remove the filler cap and hang it on its

carrier (on the filler flap).

 Introduce the nozzle and push it in fully

(pushing open the non-return valve A on petrol vehicles).

 Fill the tank (don't continue past the third

cut-off of the nozzle, as this may cause malfunctions).

 Refit the filler cap turning it a 1/4 turn to the

right.

 Push the filler flap to close it.

Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter which reduces harmful emissions in the exhaust gas. The filler neck is narrower and allows only petrol nozzles to be used. For a petrol engine, the use of unleaded fuel is compulsory.

If you have put in the wrong fuel for

your vehicle, you must have have the tank drained and refilled with the correct fuel before you start the engine.

Low fuel level

When the low fuel level in the tank is reached, this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible warning and a message in the instrument

panel screen. When it first comes on, around 6 litres of fuel remain in the tank. Until sufficient fuel has been added, this warning lamp appears every time the ignition is switched on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message. This audible signal and message are repeated with increasing frequency as the fuel level drops and approaches "0". You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out.

Fuel supply cut-off

Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device which cuts off the fuel supply in the event of a collision.

Access

Misfuel prevention (Diesel) *

Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of engine damage that can result from filling with the wrong fuel. Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention device appears when the filler cap is removed.

Operation

It remains possible to use a fuel can to fill the tank. In order to ensure a good flow of fuel, do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in direct contact with the flap of the misfuel prevention device and pour slowly.

Travelling abroad

As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be different

When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the fuel filler neck of your Diesel vehicle, it comes into contact with the flap. The system remains closed and prevents filling. Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type filler nozzle.

in other countries, the presence of the misfuel prevention device may make refuelling impossible. Before travelling abroad, we recommend that you check with the CITROËN dealer network, whether your vehicle is suitable for the fuel pumps in the country in which you want to travel.

* According to country of sale.

Quality of the fuel used for petrol engines

The petrol engines are perfectly compatible with E10 or E24 type petrol biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 % ethanol), conforming to European standards EN 228 and EN 15376. E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol) are reserved exclusively for vehicles marketed for the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must comply with European standard EN 15293. For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed to run on fuels containing up to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).

Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines

The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible with biofuels which conform to current and future European standards (Diesel fuel which complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which complies with standard EN 14214) available at the pumps (containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester). The B30 biofuel can be used in certain Diesel engines; however, this use is subject to strict application of the special servicing conditions. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. The use of any other type of (bio)fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the engine and fuel system).

Heating and Ventilation

System which creates and maintains good conditions of comfort and visibility in the vehicle's passenger compartment.

Controls

The incoming air follows various routes depending on the controls selected by the driver, the front passenger and rear passengers. The temperature control enables you to obtain the level of comfort required by mixing the air of the various circuits. The air distribution control enables you to select the air vents used in the passenger compartment by the combined use of the associated buttons. The air flow control enables you to increase or reduce the speed of the ventilation fan. These controls are grouped together on control panel A on the centre console.

Air distribution

Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning

Comfort

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below:  To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles

located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.

 Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation

of the digital air conditioning system.

 Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month

to keep it in perfect working order.

 Ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter

elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).

We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its

special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).

 To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have

it checked regularly as recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.

 If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or a

qualified workshop. You can switch off the air conditioning (AC button) and stay in Automatic mode in order to limit fuel consumption. If misting appears while in this mode, you can switch the air conditioning back on temporarily to improve the situation. When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.

If after an extended stop in sunshine, the interior temperature is very high, first ventilate the passenger compartment for a few moments. Put the air flow control at a setting high enough to quickly change the air in the passenger compartment. The air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.

The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.

If you want to prioritise heating, start and leave the engine running by pressing ECO OFF.

Dual-zone digital air conditioning

Automatic operation

1. Automatic comfort programme

We recommend the use of one of the three AUTO modes available: they provide optimised regulation of

the temperature in the passenger compartment according to the comfort value that you have chosen. These three modes automatically control the system, according to the desired setting, while also maintaining the desired comfort value.

This system is designed to operate effectively in all seasons, with the windows closed.

 Press the "AUTO" button repeatedly:

- a first indicator lamp comes on; the "low" setting mode is selected,

- a second indicator lamp comes on; the "medium" setting mode is selected,

- a third indicator lamp comes on; the "high" mode setting is selected.

Use the "medium" and "high" settings in preference to maintain the comfort level at the rear.

When the engine is cold, the air flow will reach its optimum level progressively, taking account of the weather and the desired comfort level so as to avoid too great a distribution of cold air. On entering the vehicle, if the interior temperature is much colder or warmer than the comfort value, there is no need to change the value displayed in order to obtain the comfort required. In all seasons, with the windows closed the system corrects the difference in temperature automatically and as quickly as possible.

2-3. Driver's-passenger's side

settings

The driver and front passenger can each adjust the temperature to their requirements.

The value indicated on the display corresponds to a level of comfort and not to a temperature in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.

4. Automatic visibility programme

See "Front demisting - defrosting".

Comfort

Manual operation

If you wish, you can make a different choice from that offered by the system by changing a setting. The "AUTO" indicator lamps go off; the other functions, except the air conditioning, will still be controlled automatically.  Pressing the "AUTO" button returns the

system to completely automatic operation.

 Turn control 2 or 3 to the left or to the right

respectively to decrease or increase this value.

A setting around the value 21 provides optimum comfort. However, depending on your requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is normal. You are advised to avoid a left / right setting difference of more than 3.

With Stop & Start, when demisting has been activated, the STOP mode is not available.

For maximum cooling or heating of the passenger compartment, it is possible to exceed the minimum value 14 or the maximum value 28.  Turn control 2 or 3 to the left

until "LO" is displayed or to the right until "HI" is displayed.

5. Air conditioning On / Off

6. Air distribution adjustment

8. Air intake / Air recirculation

 Press this button to switch off

the air conditioning.

Switching the system off could result in discomfort (humidity, condensation).  Press this button again to return to

automatic operation of the air conditioning. The indicator lamp in the "A/C" button

comes on. To obtain cool air more quickly, you can use recirculation of the interior air for a few moments. Then revert to the intake of exterior air.

 Press one or more buttons to

direct the air flow towards:

- the windscreen and side windows,

- the outer and centre air vents,

- the footwells. You can combine the three orientations to obtain the desired air distribution.

7. Air ﬂ ow adjustment

 Turn this control to the left to

decrease the air flow or to the right to increase the air flow.

The air flow indicator lamps, between the two fans, come on progressively in relation to the value requested.

Air recirculation enables the passenger compartment to be isolated from exterior odours and smoke when external pollution is detected (if your vehicle is fitted with a pollution sensor). It is activated automatically on operation of the screenwash. It is inactive when the ambient temperature is below 5 °C to avoid the risk of misting in the vehicle.

- The indicator lamp with "A" on indicates that recirculation is controlled automatically.

- The indicator lamp without "A" on indicates that recirculation is forced manually.

- Both indicator lamps off indicates that recirculation is controlled automatically without taking account of the detection of pollution.

Without pollution sensor

If your vehicle is not fitted with a pollution sensor, press this button to force recirculation manually.
