Citroen C3: Automatic gearbox / Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction,
this warning
lamp comes on and a message is
displayed, when the ignition is switched on.
In this case, the gearbox goes into back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. It is possible to
feel a significant jolt (without risk for the gearbox)
while changing from P to R and from N to R.
Do not exceed 62 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
There is a risk of
damaging the gearbox:
- If the accelerator and brake pedals are
pressed simultaneously.
- In the event of a battery failure, forcing the
selector from position P to another position.
With an automatic gearbox,
never try to
start the engine by pushing the vehicle.
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...
(Depending on engine.)
