Information displays
 Press the button, located at the end

of the wiper stalk , to display the
various items of trip computer infor-
mation in succession.

 Press the control for more than

two seconds to reset to zero the
distance

travelled,

the

average

fuel consumption and the average
speed.

The trip computer provides the following
information:

-

range,

-

current fuel consumption,

-

the Stop & Start time counter * ,

-

distance travelled,

-

average fuel consumption,

 The next press then returns you to

the normal display.

TRIP COMPUTER

on your journey (range, fuel consump-
tion…).

-

average speed.

* Available only with the monochrome

MONITORING

A few definitions…

Range
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
which can still be travelled

with the fuel remaining in the tank in
relation to the average fuel consump-
tion over the last few miles (kilometres)
travelled.

Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel con-
sumption during the last few
seconds.

Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel con-
sumption since the last trip
computer zero reset.

Average speed
(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed calcu-
lated since the last trip computer
zero reset (ignition on).

Distance travelled
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
travelled since the last trip
computer zero reset.

This value may vary following a
change in the style of driving or

the relief, resulting in a signifi -

cant change in the current fuel
consumption.

If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a CITROËN dealer

or a qualifi ed workshop.

This function is only displayed
from 20 mph (30 km/h).

When the range falls below 20 miles

(30 km), dashes are displayed. After fi ll-

ing with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range
is recalculated and is displayed when it
exceeds 60 miles (100 km).

Distance remaining to
destination
(miles or km)
This is the distance remaining

to be travelled to the fi nal destination. It

can be entered by the user.
If the distance is not entered, dashes
are displayed in place of the digits.

Stop & Start time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
If your vehicle is fi tted with Stop &

Start, a time counter calculates the

time spent in STOP mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition
is switched on with the key.

various trip computer tabs in suc-
cession:

-

-

the trip "1" tab with:

the distance travelled,
the average fuel

consumption,

the average speed,
for the fi rst trip.

-

the trip "2" tab with:

the distance travelled,
the average fuel

consumption,

the average speed,
for the second trip.

 Pressing the button again returns

you to the normal display.

 When the trip required is displayed,

press the button on the end of the wip-
er stalk for more than two seconds.

Trips "1" and "2" are independent but
their use is identical.
For example, trip "1" can be used for

daily fi gures, and trip "2" for monthly

fi gures.

COMFORT

VENTILATION

Air intake

The air circulating in the passenger com-

partment is fi ltered and originates either

from the outside via the grille located at

the base of the windscreen or from the

inside in air recirculation mode.

Air treatment

The incoming air follows various routes

depending on the controls selected by

the driver:

- direct arrival in the passenger com-

partment (air intake),

-

passage through a heating circuit
(heating),

-

passage through a cooling circuit

(air conditioning).

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 diffuse the air in the passenger com-

partment combining several air vents.

The air fl ow control enables you to

increase or reduce the speed of the

ventilation blower.

Control panel

The controls of this system are grouped

together on control panel A on the cen-

tre console. Depending on the model,

the functions offered are:

- the level of comfort required,

- air fl ow,

- air distribution,

- demisting-defrosting,

- manual or digital air conditioning

controls.

Air distribution

1.

Windscreen demisting-defrosting vents.

2.

Front side window demisting-defrost-

ing vents.

3.

Side adjustable air vents.

4.

Central adjustable air vents.

5.

Air outlets to the front footwells.

6.

Air outlets to the rear footwells.

COMFORT

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING

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 fi lter is in good condition

and have the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks"

section).

We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter.

Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purifi cation 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 Mainte-

nance and Warranty Guide.



If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a

CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

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 sun-

shine, the interior temperature is

very high, fi rst ventilate the pas-

senger compartment for a few

moments.

Put the air fl ow control at a setting

high enough to quickly change

the air in the passenger compart-

ment.

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 ve-

hicle which is perfectly normal.
