Parking sensors

This system measures the size of a free
parking space between two vehicles or
obstacles.

Stop & Start system

This system puts the engine temporarily into standby during
stops in the traffic (traffic lights, traffic jams, etc...). The engine
restarts automatically as soon as you want to move off. The
Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions, as well as noise levels when stationary.

Directional lighting

This lighting automatically provides
additional visibility when cornering.

129




Panoramic windscreen

This large glazed area provides
incomparable visibility and light in the
passenger compartment.

Cornering lighting

At low speed, this lighting comes on
automatically to improve vision when
cornering, at intersections, when parking
parking... making use of the front foglamp on
the side in question.

level of fuel remaining.

B.
With the engine running, its associated low
level warning lamp should go off.

C.
With the ignition on, the oil level indicator
should show for a few seconds that the
level is OK or correct, depending on
version.
If the levels are not correct, top up the levels
which are low.

When switching the ignition on and off, the

Starting

Your vehicle is fitted with a system which
holds your vehicle stationary momentarily,
the time to move your foot from the brake to
the accelerator, to help with moving off on a
gradient.
This function is only active when:


- the vehicle is completely stationary with
your foot on the brake pedal,

- certain conditions of gradient are met,

- the driver's door is closed.

Stop & Start


Engine going into STOP mode


212

The "ECO"
warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel and the engine is
put into standby automatically:


- with a manual gearbox;
at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h), when you put the gear
lever into neutral and release the clutch
pedal,

- with the 6-speed electronic gearbox
system;
at speeds below 5 mph (8 km/h),
when you press the brake pedal or put the
gear lever in position N
.


Engine going into START mode

Deactivation/Reactivation

You can deactivate the system at any time by
pressing the "ECO OFF"
button; the button's
warning lamp comes on.

213



213


The system is reactivated automatically
every time you start the engine with
the key.

Before refuelling or doing anything
under the bonnet, you must switch off
the ignition with the key. The "ECO"
warning lamp goes off
and the engine restar ts automatically:


- with a manual gearbox;
when you fully

depress the clutch pedal,

- with the 6-speed electronic gearbox
system;



●
with the gear lever in position A
or M
,
when you release the brake pedal,

●
or gear lever in position N
and brake
pedal released, when you change to
position A
or M
,

●
or when you engage reverse.

In certain circumstances the STOP mode may
not be available; the "ECO"
warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds then goes off. In certain condition, START mode may engage
automatically; the "ECO"
warning lamp flashes
then goes off.
Driving safely

Eco-driving

Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.


Optimise the use of your
gearbox

With a manual gearbox, move off gently,
change up without waiting and drive by
changing up quite soon. If your vehicle has
the system, the gear shift indicator invites you
to change up; it is displayed in the instrument
panel, follow its instructions.

With an automatic or electronic gearbox,
stay in Drive "D"
or Auto "A"
, according to
the type of gearbox, without pressing the
accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.



Drive smoothly


Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use
engine braking rather than the brake pedal,
and press the accelerator progressively. These
practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions and also helps
reduce the background traffic noise.

If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of
the system at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h)
when the traffic is flowing well.



Control the use of your
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.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows
and leave the air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment
that can help keep the temperature in the
passenger compar tment down (sun roof and
window blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has
automatic digital regulation, as soon as the
desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.

35

Limit the causes of excess
consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the
heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as
close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,
bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in
preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.

At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and
refit your summer tyres.



Observe the recommendations
on maintenance

Check the tyre pressures regularly, when
cold, referring to the label in the door
aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in par ticular:


- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan.

Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter...) and obser ve the
schedule of operations recommended by the
manufacturer.



When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any
over flow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only
after the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption settle
down to a consistent average.

Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps
when the level of light does not require their
use.

Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm
up much faster while driving.

As a passenger, if you avoid connecting
your multimedia devices (film, music, video
game...), you will contribute towards limiting
the consumption of electrical energy, and so
of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before
leaving the vehicle.
