There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:
- if you press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time,
- if you force the movement of the
gear lever from the
P position to
another position when the battery
is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when at
a prolonged standstill with the engine
running (traffic jam...), put the gear lever in
the N
position and apply the parking brake.
If the lever is not in position P ,
when the driver's door is opened or
approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off, a warning
message appears in the screen.
F
Return the lever to position P
; the
message disappears.
When driving on flooded roads or when
crossing a ford, proceed at walking
pace.
Operating fault
Manual operation
When the ignition is on, the lighting
of this warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message in the
multifunction screen, indicates a gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel
a substantial knock when changing from
P
to R
and from
N to R
. This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Contact a CITRoËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
F
Select position M for sequential
changing
of the four gears.
F
Push the lever towards the +
sign to
change up a gear.
F
Pull the lever towards the -
sign to change
down a gear.
It is only possible to change from one gear to
another if the vehicle speed and engine speed
permit; otherwise, the gearbox will operate
temporarily in automatic mode.
This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions).
d
disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succession in the
instrument panel.
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can engage
position P or N
to place the gearbox in neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle.
Invalid value during manual
operation
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the
gear selected flashes for a few seconds, then
the actual gear engaged is displayed.
It is possible to change from position
d
(automatic) to position
M
(manual) at any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox selects gear
M1
automatically.
The sport and snow programmes do not
operate in manual mode.
