      A few definitions… 

 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).  

  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. 

 When the range falls below 20 miles

(30 km), dashes are displayed. After 

fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the 

range is recalculated and is displayed 

when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km). 

  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.   

        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.   

 The fuel consumption of your 

vehicle will be higher than 

the offi cial  fi gures  obtained 

by CITROËN during the fi rst 

3 000 miles  (5 000 km)  of  the 

vehicle's life.

         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).   

  Control panel 

 The controls of this system are grouped 

together on control panel  A  on the centre 

console.  

  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 nozzles to the front footwells. 
  7.   Air outlets to the rear footwells.

           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 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.  

  

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 set-

ting high enough to quickly 

change the air in the passenger 

compartment. 
 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.   

   Stop & Start 
 The heating and air conditioning systems only work when the engine is 

running. To maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compart-

ment, you can temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start system (see the 

corresponding section).
