Eco-driving

For more economical driving, and increased range

Practical advice for everyday use to optimise the range of your vehicle by conserving battery power.

Adopt a smooth driving 
style

The electrical consumption of your vehicle 
depends greatly on your journey, your driving 
style and your speed.
In all cases, adopt a smooth driving style.

Stay in the "Eco" zone

 indicated in the energy 

consumption / generation meter: depress 
the accelerator pedal progressively, without 
sudden movement, and if the conditions permit, 
drive at steady and moderate speed.

Recover energy

Anticipating the driving conditions allows you to 
recover energy and increase the range of your 
vehicle.

Use the "Charge" zone

 of the energy 

consumption / generation meter whenever 
possible: anticipate the traffic slowing down 
and if the conditions permit, use deceleration 
rather than the brakes.

Control the use of your 
electrical equipment

The heating and air conditioning systems 
operate on energy from the main battery.
Excessive use of these systems greatly 
reduces the range of your vehicle. Remember 
to switch them off once the desired level of 
comfort is reached and check their settings 
every time you set off.
Control also the use of demisting / defrosting 
and the heated seat.

Limit the causes of excess 
consumption

As with any vehicle, limit the loads carried 
in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance 
(windows open above 30 mph (50 km/h), roof 
bars, roof box, etc.).

Observe the recommendations 
on maintenance

Check the tyre pressures regularly and 
follow the schedule for routine servicing 
recommended by CITROËN.

Indicator and warning lamps

Visual indicators informing the driver that a 
system is in operation, is deactivated or has 
a fault.

Associated warnings

The illumination of certain warning lamps may 
be accompanied by an audible signal.
The warning lamps may come on continuously 
(fixed) or flash.

Certain warning lamps may come on in 
one of two modes. Only by relating the 
type of lighting to the operating status 
of the vehicle can it be ascertained 
whether the situation is normal or 
whether a fault has occurred.

When the ignition is switched on

Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds 
when the vehicle's ignition is switched on.
These same warning lamps go off after a few 
seconds.
If you notice one of these warning lamps 
remaining on, refer to the information on the 
warning lamp in question.
