Citroen C3: Automatic gearbox / Manual operation
To limit fuel consumption
during an
extended standstill with the engine
running (for example, in a traffic jam), set the
gear selector to N and apply the parking
brake.
- Selecting position M enables sequential shifting between the six gears.
- Push backwards to shift up a gear.
- Push forwards to shift down a gear.
The gearbox only changes gear if the road speed and engine speed permit; apart from this condition, the rules for automatic operation temporarily apply.
D disappears, and the gears engaged appear in succession on the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the selected gear flashes for a few seconds, then the gearactually activated is displayed.
It is possible to change from position D to position M at any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving very slowly, the gearbox selects gear M1 automatically.
The Sport programme is inactive in manual operation.
This symbol is displayed if a
gear is not
engaged correctly (gear selector between
two positions).
Automatic operation
Select position D for automatic changing of
the six gears.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any intervention on the part of the
driver...
Switching the vehicle off
Before switching off the engine, it is possible to
engage position P or N to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle, unless it is programmed
to automatic mode...
