CO-DRIVING

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

2

17

Optimise the use of your
gearbox

With a manual gearbox, move off
gently, change up without waiting
and drive by changing up quite
soon. If your vehicle has the system,
the gear effi ciency indicator invites
you to change up; it is displayed
in the instrument panel, follow its
instructions.

With an automatic or electronic
gearbox, stay in Drive "D" or
Auto "A" , according to the type
of gearbox, without pressing
the accelerator pedal heavily or
suddenly.

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
CO2 emissions and also helps reduce
the background traffi c noise.

If your vehicle has cruise control,
make use of the system at speeds
above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the
traffi c is fl owing 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 digital 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
(fi lm, 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.

FAMILIARISATION

18

Limit the causes of excess
consumption

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 refi t your summer tyres.

Observe the recommendations
on maintenance

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 fi lter, air fi lter...) and
observe the schedule of operations
recommended by the manufacturer.

When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overfl ow.

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

ACCESS REMOTE CONTROL

Central unlocking

This locks and unlocks the doors on
the vehicle, opens and closes the
fuel fi ller cap, as well as starting and
stopping the engine.

The direction indicators fl ash twice.

Press this button to unlock all
of your vehicle's doors.

Central locking

Press this button to lock all of
your vehicle's doors.

The direction indicators fl ash once.
If one of the doors is open or is not

closed correctly, the central locking will
not work.

Access

Deadlocking

A second press on the closed padlock
on the remote control within fi ve
seconds after locking changes the
locking to deadlocking.

This is confi rmed by fi xed lighting
of the direction indicators for
approximately two seconds.

Deadlocking renders the exterior
and interior door opening handles
inoperative: do not leave anyone inside
the vehicle when it is deadlocked.

If deadlocking is activated from inside
the vehicle using the remote control, it
will change to normal locking when the
vehicle is started.

Folding/unfolding the key

2

If you do not press the button, the
mechanism may be damaged.

Press this button to release
the key from its housing.

To fold the key, press this
chromed button then fold
the key into the housing.

Good practice

Take care not to allow the remote
control to come into contact with
grease, dust, rain or a damp
environment.

A heavy object attached to the key
(keyring, ...) weighing on the shaft of
the key in the switch, may cause a
malfunction.

REMOTE CONTROL
Changing the battery

Battery ref.: CR1620/3 volts.
The "battery fl at" information is given

by an audible signal, accompanied by
a message in the screen.

To replace the battery, unclip the
casing using a coin at the ring.

If the remote control does not work
after the battery has been changed,
reinitialise the remote control.

There is a risk of damage if the
replacement battery is not the correct
type .

Use only identical batteries or
batteries of an equivalent type to those
recommended by CITROËN dealers.

Do not discard the remote control
batteries, they contain metals which
are harmful to the environment.

Deposit them at a CITROËN
dealership, or at an authorised
collection point.

Reinitialising the remote control

Following changing of the remote
control battery or disconnection of the
vehicle battery, the remote control may
have to be reinitialised.

Wait at least one minute before using
the remote control.

Insert the key in the ignition switch with
the buttons (padlocks) of the remote
control facing you.

Switch on the ignition.
Press the locking padlock for at

least fi ve seconds within the next
ten seconds.

Switch off the ignition.
Wait at least one minute before using

the remote control.
The remote control is now working

again.

ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER

All of the keys contain an electronic
immobiliser device.

This device locks the engine supply
system. It is activated automatically
when the key is removed from the
ignition.

After the ignition is switched on,
a dialogue is established between the
key and the electronic immobiliser
system.

The metal part of the key must be
unfolded correctly for correct dialogue
to take place.

If you lose your keys

Visit a CITROËN dealer with the
vehicle's V5 registration document and
your identifi cation document.

A CITROËN dealer will be able
to retrieve the key code and
the transponder code so that a
replacement key can be ordered.

Good practice

Do not make any modifi cations to the
electronic immobiliser system.

Operating the remote control, even
when it is in your pocket, may result in
involuntary unlocking of the doors.

The simultaneous use of other
high frequency equipment (mobile
telephones, domestic alarms…), may
interfere with the operation of the
remote control temporarily.

The remote control does not operate
while the key is in the ignition, even if
the ignition is off.

When purchasing a second-hand
vehicle:

- have the keys memorised by a
CITROËN dealer to ensure that
the keys in your possession are
the only ones which can start the
vehicle.

When leaving the vehicle, check that
the lamps are off and nothing of value
is visible.

As a safety precaution (with children
on board), remove the key from the
ignition when leaving the vehicle, even
for a short time.

Access

If fi tted on your vehicle, this provides
two types of protection:

- exterior protection: it sounds if a
front/rear door or the bonnet is
opened.

- interior protection: it sounds if
the volume inside the passenger
compartment changes (breaking of
a window or a movement inside the
vehicle).

If your vehicle is fi tted with a separation
partition, the interior protection is not
active in the load space.

Locking the vehicle with
complete alarm

Setting the alarm

- Switch off the ignition and get out of
the vehicle.

- Set the alarm within fi ve minutes of
getting out of the vehicle, by locking
or deadlocking using the remote
control. The red LED, located in the
button, fl ashes once per second.

2

READY TO GO

Access

Disarming

- Unlock the vehicle with the remote
control or switch on the ignition, the
red LED goes off.

Locking the vehicle with
exterior protection only

If, while you are away from the
vehicle, you wish to leave a window
partially open or a pet inside the
vehicle, you should choose exterior
protection only.

- Switch off the ignition.

- In the next ten seconds,
press the button until
the red LED is on
continuously.

- Get out of the vehicle.

- Within the next fi ve minutes, set
the alarm by locking or deadlocking
using the remote control (the red
LED fl ashes once a second).

Triggering

The siren sounds, the direction indicators
fl ash for approximately 30 seconds and
the red LED fl ashes rapidly.

- To switch it off, insert the key and
switch on the ignition.

When the alarm has been triggered ten
times in succession (when triggered for
the eleventh time) it is deactivated. Repeat
the procedure for setting the alarm.

Locking the vehicle without
alarm

- Insert the key in the lock on the
driver’s door and lock it.

Do not set the alarm when washing
your vehicle.

Failure of the remote control

When the alarm is set but the remote
control does not operate:

- Unlock the doors with the key and
open the door. The alarm is triggered.

- Switch on the ignition in the
next ten seconds. The alarm is
disarmed.

Incorrect operation

When the ignition is switched on, if the
red LED remains on for ten seconds,
there is a fault in the siren connection.

Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked.

Automatic setting of the alarm

Depending on the country in which
the vehicle is sold, the alarm is set
automatically approximately 2 minutes
after the last door is closed.

To prevent triggering of the alarm when
a door is opened, you have to press
the remote control unlocking button
again.

Do not make any modifi cations
to the alarm system as this could
cause faults.

FRONT DOORS
From the outside

Use the remote control to lock/unlock
the vehicle.

Insert the metal part of the key in the
lock on the driver's side if the remote
control does not work.

From the inside

Use the door opening control to unlock
and open the door concerned.

3

SLIDING SIDE DOORS

Access

2

From the outside

Pull the handle towards you then
towards the rear and open the side
door guiding the rearward sliding to
beyond the point of resistance to hold
it open.

A mechanical system prevents opening
of the left-hand side door when the fuel
fi ller fl ap is open.

From the inside

Unlock the side door using this handle
and open it, guiding the rearward
sliding to the point of resistance. Pass
this point to hold the door open.

Close the side door using the handle
to start the sliding and pass the point
of resistance. Then, use the shaped
recess at the top of the door pillar to
guide the door until it locks.

Do not use the grab handle to slide the
door.

Good practice

Take care not to block the guide space
on the fl oor to allow the door to slide
correctly.

If your vehicle is parked on a slope,
guide the sliding of the side door. In
fact, the door could open or close more
rapidly due to the slope of the ground
and could cause injury.

For safety and operation reasons, do
not drive with the sliding side doors
open.

READY TO GO

Access

26

In practice

It is possible to drive with the right­hand door open to make it easier to
carry long loads. The left-hand door is
kept closed by the distinctive "yellow"
lock, positioned at the base of the door.
This closed door must not be used as
a load retainer.

Driving with the right-hand door open
is a special dispensation. Comply with
the usual safety indications to warn
other drivers.

When parked with the
rear doors open to 90°,
the doors mask the rear
lamps. To signal your
position to other road
users driving in the same
direction who may not
have seen your vehicle,
use a warning triangle
or other device required
by the legislation in your
country.

Opening to approximately 180°

A check strap system permits extension
of the opening from approximately 90°
to approximately 180°.

Pull the yellow control when the door
is open.

The check strap will engage again
automatically on closing.

From inside

Pull the handle towards you to open
the left-hand door.

REAR ROOF FLAP

This rear roof fl ap is only compatible
with the hinged doors.

To open the rear roof fl ap:

- raise the black paddle of the toggle,

- relieve the toggle by pressing the
rear roof fl ap (downwards) then
release the hook,

- lift the rear roof fl ap,

- pass the point of resistance to
secure the rear roof fl ap using the
support struts.

To close the rear roof fl ap:

- check that the support bar is
secured correctly,

- lower the rear roof fl ap,

- while pressing the rear roof
(downwards), take hold of the two
loops of the spring then place the
hook in its housing,

fl ap

- lower the black paddle to secure
the rear roof fl ap.

Securing the rear roof fl ap places it
on the seal correctly and guarantees
sealing without noise.

Support bar

A support bar is provided for
transporting long loads, after opening
the rear roof fl ap.

Fold back the support bar by lifting the
lever.

Support it to the door pillar.
Support the long loads to be

transported, lift them and reposition the
support bar with one hand.

Ensure that it is secured correctly by
pressing the handle downwards past
the point of resistance and secure the
loads fi rmly.

Access

The side supports can be used as
hooking points.

The rear bumper has been
reinforced to serve as a footrest
when entering the vehicle.

Never drive without the support bar in
place.

The driver is warned of any malfunction
of this emission control system by the

lamp in the instrument panel.

There is a risk of damage to the

by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.

EOBD (European On Board

The Service warning lamp comes on.
Following a warning, the under-infl ation

of the tyre will not necessarily be
visible.

Check the tyre pressure as soon as
possible.

Puncture

The STOP warning lamp comes on.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so,

avoiding any sudden movement of the
steering wheel and the brakes.

Make a temporary repair to the tyre
using the puncture repair kit or by
fi tting the spare wheel.

Change the damaged wheel, and have
the tyre pressures checked as soon as
possible.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION

ETECTION

Sensors continuously monitor the tyre
pressures and trigger a warning in
the event of under-infl ation, a puncture
or a fault with a sensor.

Any anomaly is
indicated by visual and
audible information and
is accompanied by a
message in the screen.

Refer to the "Changing a wheel"
section of chapter 7.

If the damaged wheel is replaced by
one without a sensor (for example,
the spare wheel), the message
is maintained to indicate that the
pressure of the wheel cannot be
monitored, so providing a reminder that
the damaged wheel with sensor must
be repaired.

Sensor(s) fault or not detected

The Service warning lamp comes on.
When changing a wheel or in the

event of a sensor fault, the tyre
pressure is no longer monitored.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop to replace the faulty
sensor(s).

All repairs and changing of tyres on a
wheel fi tted with this system must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.

If when changing a tyre, you fi t a
wheel not detected by your vehicle
(for example: fi tting snow tyres), you
must have the system reinitialised
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.

The tyre under-infl ation detection

system is a driving aid which does
not take the place of vigilance or the
responsibility of the driver.

Good practice

This system does not avoid the need
to have the tyre pressures checked
regularly (including the spare wheel),
to ensure that the dynamic
performance of the vehicle remains at
its best and to avoid premature wear
of the tyres, in particular in the case of
heavy loads and high speeds.

Observing the recommended tyre
pressures helps reduce the vehicle's
fuel consumption.

The system may temporarily be
disturbed by electro-magnetic
emissions on a frequency close to that
used by it.

SERVICE INDICATOR

This programmes service intervals

Operation

A few moments after the ignition
has been switched on, the spanner
indicating a service operation comes
on; the display for the total distance
recorder gives (in round fi gures) the
distance remaining before the next
service.

The points at which a service is due
are calculated from the last indicator
zero reset.

The point at which a service is due is
determined by two parameters:

- the distance travelled,

- the time which has elapsed since
the last service.

The distance remaining before the
next service may be weighted by
the time factor, depending on the
type of driving.

A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the oil level is displayed,
then the total distance recorder
resumes normal operation showing the
total and trip distances.

Less than 1 000 miles/km before the
next service is due

Each time the ignition is switched on
and for a few seconds, the spanner

quickly and silently.

Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise
level when stationary.

Operation

Going into engine STOP mode

The "ECO" warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and
the engine goes into standby:

- with a manual gearbox , at speeds

- with the 6-speed electronic
gearbox , at a speed below 5 mph
(8 km/h), when you press the brake
pedal or put the gear selector into
position N .

If your vehicle is fi tted with the system,
a time counter calculates the sum of
the periods in STOP mode during a
journey. It rests itself to zero every time
the ignition is switched on with the key.

With the automatic gearbox
system, for your comfort during

parking maoeuvres, STOP mode
is not available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.

STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as

In the event of a fault in STOP
mode, the vehicle may stall. It is then
necessary to switch off the ignition and
start the engine again using the key.

Maintenance

Before working under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system

to avoid any risk of injury resulting
from automatic operation of START
mode.

This system requires a specifi c
battery with a special specifi cation
and technology (reference numbers
available from a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop).

Fitting a battery not listed by
CITROËN introduces the risk of
malfunction of the system.

The Stop & Start system makes

use of advanced technology. All

work on this type of battery must
be done only by a CITROËN dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.

Without using the accelerator:

- press the Set + button.
A brief press increases the speed by

1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the

speed in steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Using the accelerator:

- exceed the memorised speed until
the speed required is reached,

- press the Set + or Set - button.

To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:

- press the Set - button.

A brief press decreases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).

A maintained press decreases the
speed in steps of 5 mph (km/h).

Switching the function off

- Place the dial in position 0 or switch

off the ignition to switch everything
off.

Cancelling the programmed
reference speed

When the vehicle becomes stationary,
after switching off the ignition, the
system no longer memorises a speed.

Operating fault

The programmed speed is cleared then
replaced by three dashes. Contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to have the system checked.

Steering mounted controls

Good practice

When changing the programmed
reference speed by means of a
maintained press, pay attention as
the speed can increase or decrease
rapidly.

Do not use the cruise control on
slippery roads or in heavy traffi c.

In the event of a steep slope, the cruise
control cannot prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.

In any event, the cruise control cannot
replace the need to observe the speed
limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance and responsibility on the part
of the driver.

It is advisable to leave your feet near
the pedals.

To avoid any jamming under the
pedals:

- ensure that the mat and its fi xings
on the fl oor are positioned correctly,

- never place one mat on top of
another.

SPEED LIMITER "LIMIT"

"This is the selected speed which the
driver does not wish to exceed".

This selection is made with the engine
running while stationary or with the
vehicle moving. The minimum speed
which can be programmed is 20 mph
(30 km/h).

The speed of the vehicle responds
to the pressure of the driver's foot as
far as the accelerator pedal point of
resistance which indicates that the
programmed speed has been reached.

However, pressing the pedal beyond
this point of resistance to the fl oor
allows the programmed speed to be
exceeded. To resume use of the limiter,
simply reduce the pressure on the
accelerator pedal gradually and return
to a speed below that programmed.

The operating actions may be

carried out when stationary, with the
