Gear efficiency indicator
System which reduces fuel consumption by advising the driver to change up.
Operation
Example:
- You are in third gear.
- You press the accelerator pedal.
- The system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear.
The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow.
The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (slope, load, ...) and
the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking, ...).
The system never suggests:
- engaging first gear,
- engaging reverse gear,
- engaging a lower gear.
With an electronic or automatic
gearbox, the system is only active in
manual mode.
On vehicle fitted with a manual
gearbox, the arrow may be
accompanied by the gear
recommended.
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one (or more) gear(s). You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
The gear engagement recommendations must
not be considered compulsory. In fact, the
configuration of the road, the amount of traffic
and safety remain determining factors when
choosing the best gear. Therefore, the driver
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.

Stop & Start
Operation
going into engine STOP mode
For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
Stop & Start mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key.
The "ECO"
warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:
-
with a manual gearbox, when stationary
or at speeds below 12 mph (20 km/h)
(depending on version), when you put the
gear lever into neutral, and you release the
clutch pedal.
-
with a 5 or 6-speed electronic gearbox,
when stationary or at speeds below 5 mph
(8 km/h) (depending on version), when
you press the brake pedal or put the gear
selector in position n
.
-
with an automatic gearbox, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or you place the gear selector in position n.
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.
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams...).
The engine restarts automatically - START
mode - as soon as you want to move off.
The restart takes place instantly, 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.

Driving
DS3_en_Chap04_conduite_ed02-2015
going into engine START mode
The "ECO"
warning lamp goes off
and the engine starts:
-
with a manual gearbox, when you
depress the clutch pedal,
-
with an electronic or automatic
gearbox:
● gear selector in position A / D or M,
when you release the brake pedal,
● or gear selector in position n and the
brake pedal released, when you move
the gear selector to position A / D or M,
● or when you engage reverse gear.
Special cases: START invoked
automatically

START mode is invoked automatically when:
- you open the driver's door,
- you unfasten the driver's seat belt,
- the speed of the vehicle exceeds 7 mph
(11 km/h) with the electronic gearbox
system,
- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed for control of a system.
The "ECO"
warning lamp flashes for
a few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
With a manual gearbox in STOP
mode, if you engage a gear without
fully depressing the clutch pedal, a
message is displayed asking you to
fully depress the clutch pedal so that
the engine can restart.
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the driver's door is open,
- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,
- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start using
the key,
- the engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
- demisting is active,
- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
The "ECO"
warning lamp flashes for
a few seconds then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
DS3_en_Chap04_conduite_ed02-2015
Stop & Start requires a 12 V battery
with a special specification and
technology.
All work on this type of battery must
only be done by a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.
