TRIP COMPUTER

A few definitions

Range: displays the distance which 
can travelled with the remaining fuel 

detected in the tank, basd on the 

average consumption over the last few 

miles (kilometres).
This displayed value may vary 

significantly following a change in the 

vehicle speed or the relief of the route.

Current fuel consumption: only 
calculated and displayed above  

20 mph (30 km/h).

Average fuel consumption: this is the 
average fuel consumption since the 

last trip computer zero reset.

Distance travelled: calculated since 

the last trip computer zero reset.

Distance remaining to the 
destination:
 calculated with reference to 

the final destination, entered by the user. 

If guidance is activated, the navigation 

system calculates it as a current value.

Average speed: this is the average 
speed calculated since the last trip 

computer zero reset (ignition on).

Each press of the button, located at 

the end of the wiper stalk, displays the 

different trip computer information in 

turn, depending on the screen.

When the required trip is displayed, 
press the control for more than 

two seconds.

When the range falls below 20 miles 

(30 km), dashes are displayed. After 

filling with at least 10 litres of fuel, the 

range is recalculated and is displayed 

when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If, whilst driving, dashes are displayed 
continuously in place of the digits, 

contact a CITROËN dealer.

The "vehicle" tab with the range, 
current fuel consumption and the 

remaining distance to run.

CRUISE CONTROL

"CRUISE"

"This is the speed at which the driver 

wishes to drive".

This aid to driving in free-flowing 

traffic enables the vehicle to maintain 

the speed programmed by the driver, 

unless a steep gradient makes this 

impossible.
For the system to be programmed or 
activated, the vehicle speed must be 

greater than 25 mph (40 km/h) with 

4th gear or higher engaged.

The state of the cruise control system 
can be seen in the instrument panel 
together with the the programmed 

speed setting.

Changing the 
programmed speed

Switching the system off

Operating fault

Cancelling the programmed 
speed setting

When the vehicle becomes stationary, 
after switching off the ignition, the 

system no longer memorises a speed.

There are two methods of memorising 
a speed higher

 than the previous one:

Place the dial in position 0 or switch 
off the ignition to switch everything 

off.

Good practice

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).

The programmed speed setting is 

cleared and replaced by three dashes. 

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a 

qualified workshop to have the system 

checked.

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

setting.
In any event, the cruise control cannot 
replace the need to observe the speed 
limits and the need for vigilance on the 

part of the driver.

It is advisable to keep your feet near 

the pedals.

To avoid any jamming under the 

pedals:

-  ensure that the mat and its fixings 

on the floor are positioned correctly,

never place one mat on top of 

another.

The speed of the vehicle responds to 
the pressure of the driver's foot, up 
to the the accelerator pedal's point of 
resistance, which indicates that the 

programmed speed has been reached.
However, pressing the pedal beyond 

this point of resistance to the floor 

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.
Adjustments can be carried out 
when stationary, with the engine 
running, or with the vehicle moving.

This speed limiter shows the function 
selection status in the instrument panel 

and displays the programmed speed:

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a 

qualified workshop to have the system 

checked.

Flashing of the speed setting

Good practice
In any event, the speed limiter cannot 
replace the need to observe speed 
limits, nor can it replace the need for 

vigilance on the part of the driver.

Always pay attention to the profile 

of the road and sharp acceleration 
and stay in complete control of your 

vehicle.

To avoid any jamming under the 

pedals:

-  ensure that the mat and its fixings 

on the floor are positioned correctly,

never place one mat on top of 

another.

Pressing the accelerator pedal in order 
to exceed the programmed speed 
will have no effect unless you press 
the pedal 

firmly beyond the point of 

resistance

.

The limiter is deactivated temporarily 

and the programmed speed flashes 

accompanied by an audible signal.
To return to the limiter function, reduce 
your speed to below the programmed 

speed.

The speed setting flashes:

following forcing of the accelerator 
point of resistance,

when the limiter cannot prevent an 
increase in the vehicle speed due 

to the profile of the road or on a 

steep descent,

-  in the event of sharp acceleration.

Place the switch in position 0 or 
switch off the ignition to switch the 

system off.

The last programmed speed remains in 

the memory.

The LED in the button is on. 

Recirculation temporarily 
prevents exterior odours 

and smoke from entering the 

passenger compartment.

Used with the setting of the fan speed 
(from 1 to 4), recirculation enables you 
to attain the desired comfort level more 

quickly with both hot or cold settings.

This position should only be temporary. 

When your desired comfort level has 

been reached, return to the intake 

of exterior air position to permit 
renewal of the air in the passenger 

compartment and avoid misting. This is 

the preferred operating mode.

Good practice

For maximum cooling or heating of the 
passenger compartment, it is possible 
to exceed the value 15 by turning until 

LO is displayed or the value 27 by 

turning until HI is displayed.
On entering the vehicle, the inside 
temperature may be much colder  

(or warmer) than is comfortable. There 

is no advantage in changing the value 

displayed in order to quickly reach the 

level of comfort required. The system 

will use its maximum performance to 

reach the comfort value set.

DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING

AUTO comfort programme
This is the normal air conditioning 

system operating mode.

Driver or passenger side comfort 
value
The value indicated in the screen 
corresponds to a level of comfort and 
not a temperature in degrees Celsius 

or Fahrenheit.

Turn this control to the left 
or to the right to decrease or 

increase the value. A setting 

around the value 21 provides 

optimum comfort. However, 

depending on your requirements, a 

setting between 18 and 24 is usual.

Do not cover the sunshine sensor 

located on the dashboard.

Press this button, the AUTO 

symbol is displayed.
The system controls the 

distribution, the flow and the 

intake of air to guarantee 

comfort and a sufficient circulation 

of air in the passenger compartment 

according to the comfort value set. No 

further action on your part is required.

Air flow will increase gradually when 

the engine is cold, to prevent excessive 

distribution of cold air.
For your comfort, the settings are 
stored when the ignition is switched off 
and are reinstated the next time the 

vehicle is started.
The automatic function will no longer 
be maintained if you change a setting 

manually (AUTO is cleared).

DEMISTING AND DEFROSTING

GOOD PRACTICE

Vents

"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion 
of hot or cool air in the passenger 

compartment, there are adjustable 

central and side vents which can 
be directed sideways (right or left) 

or vertically (up or down). For your 

comfort while driving, do not close 

them and direct the flow of air towards 

the windows instead.
Air vents in the footwells and directed 
towards the windscreen complete the 

equipment.

Do not block the vents located at the 

windscreen or the air extractor located 

in the boot.

Dust filter, odour filter  
(activated carbon)

This filter traps certain dust and limits 

odours.

Ensure that this filter is in good 

condition and have all of the filter 

elements replaced regularly.

Refer to the "Checks" section of 

chapter 7.

Air conditioning

In all seasons, the air conditioning 
should only be used with the 

windows closed. However, if the 

interior temperature remains high 

after a prolonged period parked in 

the sun, first ventilate the passenger 

compartment for a few minutes.
Use the AUTO mode as much as 
possible as it permits optimised 

control of all of the functions: air flow, 

passenger compartment comfort 
temperature, air distribution, air 

intake mode or air recirculation in the 

passenger compartment.
Operate the air conditioning system for 
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month, 

to keep it in good working order.
If the system does not produce cold air, 
do not use it and contact a CITROËN 

dealer or a qualified workshop.

Automatic mode: visibility 
programme
The comfort programme (AUTO) may 

not be sufficient to quickly demist or 

defrost the windows (humidity, several 

passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility 

programme. The visibility programme 

indicator comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air 

flow and provides optimum distribution 

of the ventilation to the windscreen and 

side windows.

It deactivates the air recirculation.

It is normal that the condensation 
created by the air conditioning system 

results in a flow of water which may 

form a puddle under the vehicle when 

parked.
