Eco-driving

Eco-driving

Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday 

practices that allow the motorist to optimise 

the vehicle's energy consumption (fuel and/or 

electricity) and CO

2

 emissions.

Optimise your use of the gearbox

With a manual gearbox, move off gently and 

change up promptly. While accelerating, change 

up early.

With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic 

mode. Do not depress the accelerator pedal 

heavily or suddenly.

The gear shift indicator prompts you to engage 

the most suitable gear. Whenever this indication 

is displayed on the instrument panel, follow it 

straight away.

With an automatic gearbox, this indicator 

appears only in manual mode.

Drive smoothly

Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use 

engine braking rather than the brake pedal and 

press the accelerator gradually. These practices 

help to save on energy consumption, reduce 

CO

2

 emissions and decrease general traffic 

noise.

When the traffic is flowing smoothly, select the 

cruise control.

Control the use of 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.

At speeds above 31 mph (50 km/h), close the 

windows and leave the air vents open.

Consider using equipment that can help keep 

the temperature in the passenger compartment 

down (e.g. sunroof blind, window blinds).

Unless automatically regulated, switch off the air 

conditioning as soon as the desired temperature 

has been reached.

Switch off the demisting and defrosting functions, 

if they are not managed automatically.

Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.

Adapt your use of the headlamps and/or 

foglamps to the level of visibility, in accordance 

with current legislation in the country in which 

you are driving.

Avoid running the engine before moving off, 

particularly in winter (other than in severe wintry 

conditions: temperature below -23°C). The 

vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.

As a passenger, avoid connecting your 

multimedia devices (e.g. film, music, video 

game) to help reduce the consumption of energy.

Disconnect all portable devices before leaving 

the vehicle.

Limit the causes of excess consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle. Place the 

heaviest items in the boot as close as possible to 

the rear seats.

Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and 

minimise wind resistance (e.g. roof bars, roof 

rack, bicycle carrier, trailer). Preferably, use a 

roof box.

Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.

At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit 

summer tyres.

Comply with the servicing instructions

Check tyre pressures regularly, with the tyres 

cold, referring to the label in the door aperture on 

the 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.

Do not forget the spare wheel and, where 

applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.

Have your vehicle serviced regularly (e.g. engine 

oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment 

filter, etc.). Observe the schedule of operations in 

the manufacturer's service schedule.

With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system 

has a fault, your vehicle will emit pollution. Visit 

a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop 

as soon as possible to restore your vehicle's 

nitrogen oxide emissions to legal levels.

When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after 

the third cut-out of the nozzle, to avoid overflow.

You will only see the fuel consumption of your 

new vehicle settle down to a consistent average 

after the first 1,900 miles (3,000 kilometres).

Warning and indicator 

lamps

Displayed as symbols, the warning and indicator 

lamps inform the driver of the occurrence of a 

malfunction (warning lamps) or of the operating 

status of a system (operation or deactivation 

indicator lamps). Certain lamps light up in two 

ways (fixed or flashing) and/or in several colours.

Associated warnings

The illumination of a lamp may be accompanied 

by an audible signal and/or a message displayed 

in a screen.

Relating the type of alert to the operating status 

of the vehicle allows you to determine whether 

the situation is normal or whether a fault has 

occurred: refer to the description of each lamp 

for further information.

When the ignition is switched on

Certain red or orange warning lamps come on 

for a few seconds when the ignition is switched 

on. These warning lamps should go off as soon 

as the engine is started.

For more information on a system or a function, 

refer to the corresponding section.

Persistent warning lamp

If a red or orange warning lamp comes on, there 

may be fault which needs further investigation.

AdBlue

®

 range indicators (BlueHDi)

The Diesel BlueHDi engines are equipped with 

a system that associates the SCR (Selective 

Catalytic Reduction) emissions control system 

and the Diesel particle filter (DPF) for the 

treatment of exhaust gases. They cannot 

function without AdBlue

®

 fluid.

When the level of AdBlue

®

 falls below the 

reserve level (between 1,500 and 0 miles (2,400 

and 0 km)), a warning lamp lights up when 

the ignition is switched on and an estimate 

of the distance that can be travelled before 

engine starting is prevented is displayed in the 

instrument panel.

The engine starting prevention system 

required by regulations is activated 

automatically once the AdBlue

®

 tank is empty. 

It is then no longer possible to start the 

engine until the minimum level of AdBlue

®

 has 

been topped up.

Actions required related to a lack of 

AdBlue

®

The following warning lamps light up when the 

quantity of AdBlue

®

 is below the reserve level: 

driving range of 1,500 miles (2,400 km).

Together with the warning lamps, messages 

regularly remind you of the need to top up to 

avoid engine starting being prevented. Refer to 

the 

Warning and indicator lamps

 section for 

details of the messages displayed.

If a malfunction is detected, 

these warning lamps come 

on, accompanied by an 

audible signal and the 

display of an "

Emissions 

control fault

" or "

NO START 

IN

" message.

The alert is triggered while driving when the 

fault is detected for the first time, and thereafter 

when switching on the ignition for subsequent 

journeys, for as long as the cause of the fault 

persists.

If the fault is temporary, the alert 

disappears during the next journey, after 

self-diagnostic checks of the SCR emissions 

control system.
