) Insert the key then turn it to the

left.

) Remove the fi ller cap.
A label indicates which type of fuel to use.
When you fi ll your tank, do not con-

tinue after the third cut-off of the

pump. This could cause engine mal-

functions.
The capacity of the tank is approx-

imately 55 litres for petrol engines

and 60 litres for Diesel engines.

From the time this light comes on,

you have enough fuel left to cover

approximately 30 miles (50 km) .
Note: the right-hand sliding side door

cannot be opened while the fuel fi ller

cap is removed.

Outside the vehicle: Lift the safety

catch, raise the bonnet and secure

the stay to hold the bonnet open.

FAMILIARISATION -

ECO-DRIVING

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

2

emis-

sions.

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 instru-

ment panel, follow its instructions.

With an automatic or electronic gear-

box, 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 ve-

hicles, use engine braking rather than

the brake pedal, and press the accel-

erator progressively. These practices

contribute towards a reduction in fuel

consumption and CO

2

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 con-

necting your multimedia devices

(fi lm, music, video game...), you will

contribute towards limiting the con-

sumption of electrical energy, and so

of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices be-

fore leaving the vehicle.

FAMILIARISATION

18 -

Limit the causes of excess

consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle;

place the heaviest items in the bot-

tom 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.

Service indicator

This is a visual reminder of when the

next service is due. This service is to

be carried out according to the manu-

facturer's servicing schedule.

5 seconds after the ignition is

switched on, the total distance re-

corder resumes normal operation

and the screen shows the total or trip

distances.

The distance remaining before the

MONITORING and DISPLAY SCREENS -

Engine oil level indicator

When the ignition is switched on,

the engine oil level is indicated for

approximately 10 seconds, after the

service information.

Flashing of the six squares and the

display of "max" indicate that the oil

level is too high, which could damage

the engine.
If the excess oil is confi rmed by a

check using the dipstick, contact a

CITROËN dealer without delay.

Your

CITROËN dealer carries out

this operation after each service.
The reset procedure is as follows:
-

Switch off the ignition.

-

Press and hold button 1 .

-

Switch on the ignition.

The display begins a 10

second

countdown.
-

Keep button 1 pressed for 10 sec-

onds.

The display shows [=0] and the span-

ner disappears.

Flashing of the six bars and the dis-

play of "min" indicate that the oil level

is too low, which could damage the

engine.
If the lack of oil is confi rmed by a

check using the dipstick, it is essential

that the level is topped up.

Flashing of the six bars indicates a

malfunction of the oil level indicator.
There is a risk of damage to the engine.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
The level read on the dipstick or on

the indicator will only be correct if

the vehicle is on level ground and

the engine has been off for more

than 30 minutes.

VENTILATION

1. Windscreen de-icing or

demisting vents.

2. Front window de-icing or

demisting vents.

3. Side vents.
4. Centre vents.
5. Air outlets to front footwells.

The air conditioning system does not

contain chlorine and does not pres-

ent any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system

for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a

month, to keep it in perfect working

order.
The water created by the air condi-

tioning condensation is discharged

via an opening provided for this pur-

pose. Therefore, a puddle of water

may form underneath the vehicle

when stationary.
If the system does not produce

cold air, do not use it and contact a

CITROËN dealer.

De-icing the rear windows and

mirrors
With the engine running, pressing

the control de-ices the rear windows

and mirrors.
It switches off automatically after ap-

proximately twelve minutes.
Pressing the control again switch-

es the de-icing system on again for

twelve minutes.
It is possible to switch off the de-ic-

ing by pressing the control before the

twelve minutes have elapsed.

Advice on operation

Select the air distribution most suited

to your requirements and the climatic

conditions.
Gradually adjust the temperature

setting for your comfort.
Position the air control in the ''Outside

Air'' position.
For perfectly even air distribution,

take care not to obstruct the exterior

air intake grille and the vents. Check

that the passenger compartment fi l-

ter is in good condition.
When the engine is cold, to prevent

too great a distribution of cold air, the

ventilation will increase to its opti-

mum level gradually.
In order to be effective, the air condi-

tioning ( A/C button), should only be

used with the windows closed.
If the interior temperature remains

very high following a prolonged period

parked in the sun, do not hesitate to

ventilate the passenger compartment

for a few minutes.
