FAMILIARISATION
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 effi ciency 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.



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 compartment down
(sunroof and window blinds...).
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.


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 traffi c noise.

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


As a passenger, if you avoid
connecting your multimedia devices
(fi lm, 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.
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.

GEARBOX


5-speed gearbox - reverse



To change gear easily, always press
the clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedal:


- ensure that the mat and its fi xings
on the fl oor are positioned correctly,

- never fi t one mat on top of another.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand
on the gear knob as the force exerted,
even if slight, may wear the internal
components of the gearbox over time.


Engaging 5 th
gear.

Push the gear lever fully to the right to
engage 5 th gear.
GEAR EFFICIENCY INDICATOR


In order to drive as fuel
effi ciently as possible with a
manual gearbox, this indicator
lamp indicates to the driver
when to change up.
The driver remains responsible for
deciding whether or not to follow this
indication, since the indicator lamp
comes on without taking into account
the confi guration of the road, the
amount of traffi c and safety factors.
The system cannot be deactivated.


When reverse gear is engaged
and when changing down whilst
decelerating, the function is not active.



Engaging reverse

To engage reverse gear, wait until the
vehicle is stationary then push the gear
lever to the right then back.
The lever should be moved slowly to
reduce the noise on engaging reverse
gear.

6-speed electronic gearbox



- automatic mode: gear selector in
position A
.

- manual mode: gear selector in
position M
.


For safety:
It is only possible to come out
of position N
if the brake pedal is
pressed.
The change from position A
(driving in
automatic mode) to position M
(driving
in manual mode) or vice versa can be
made at any time. The warning lamp A

goes off in the instrument panel.


Moving off



- To start the engine, the gear
selector must be in position N
.

- Press fi rmly on the brake pedal.

- Operate the starter.

- When the engine is running, place
the gear selector on R
, A
or M
as
desired.

- Release the brake pedal and
accelerate.
If the gear selector is not in position N
,
and/or if the brake pedal is not
pressed, the engine will not start.
Repeat the above procedure.

Mode selection


Reverse gear

Engaging reverse gear

Move the gear selector to R
.

Only attempt to select reverse gear
when the vehicle is stationary.



Neutral

Changing to neutral

Move the gear selector to N
. If the
vehicle is moving, do not select this
position even momentarily.

In situations of high engine speeds
(heavy acceleration), a change
up will not occur unless the driver
operates the electronic gearbox control
paddle.
Manual mode

Changing to manual mode

Move the gear selector to M
.

Automatic mode

Changing to automatic
mode

Move the gear selector to A
.
The gearbox then operates in
automatic mode, without any action on
your part.
It constantly selects the gear that is
best suited to the following conditions:


- driving style,

- road profi le,

- optimum fuel consumption.
Pull on the " +
" control
paddle to change up.
Pull on the " -
" control
paddle to change down.


- If the vehicle stops or reduces
speed (for example when
approaching a stop sign),
the gearbox changes down
automatically, to fi rst gear if
needed.

- It is not necessary to release the
accelerator completely during gear
changes.

- A gear change instruction is
accepted only if the engine speed
permits.

- For safety reasons, depending on
the engine speed, a change down
may be performed automatically.

release the steering wheel adjustment
mechanism by pulling the lever.
Adjust the steering wheel for height
and reach, then lock the mechanism by
pushing the lever fully forwards.

Acceleration

For optimum acceleration (e.g. to
overtake another vehicle), simply
press the pedal beyond the point of
resistance at the end of its travel,
by pressing down fi rmly.


Vehicle stationary, with the
engine running
In the event of a prolonged stop with
the engine running, the gearbox
changes automatically to neutral N
.


Stopping the vehicle

Before stopping the engine, put the
gear selector in position N
.
In all cases, it is essential to apply
the parking brake. Check that the
parking brake warning lamp is on in the

Stop & Start

STOP & START

The Stop & Start system puts the
engine temporarily on standby - STOP
mode - during stops in the traffi c (red
lights, traffi c jams, or other...). The
engine restarts automatically - START
mode - as soon as you want to move
off. The restart takes place instantly,
quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise
level when stationary.

Operation


Going into engine STOP mode

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


- 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
, at a speed below 5 mph
(8 km/h), when you press the brake
pedal or put the gear selector into
position N
. If your vehicle is fi tted with the system,
a time counter calculates the sum of
the periods in STOP mode during a
journey. It rests itself to zero every time
the ignition is switched on with the key.
With the automatic gearbox
system, for your comfort during
parking maoeuvres, STOP mode
is not available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as
braking, power steering, for example.
Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off
the ignition with the key.
Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP mode is not invoked when:


- the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,

- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start
using the key,

- the parking brake is applied or
being applied,

- the engine is needed to maintain
a comfortable temperature in the
passenger compartment,

- demisting is active,

- some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature,
braking assistance, ambient
temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a
system.
In this case, the "ECO"

warning lamp fl ashes for a
few seconds, then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.

46
Stop & Start

Going into engine START mode
The "ECO"
warning lamp goes
off and the engine starts:


- with a manual gearbox
, when you
depress the clutch pedal,

- with the 6-speed electronic
gearbox
:


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

●
or gear selector in position N
and
the brake pedal released, when
you move the gear selector to
position A
or M
,

●
or when you engage reverse
gear.


Special cases: START invoked
automatically
START is invoked automatically when:


- you open the driver's door,

- you unfasten the driver's seat belt,

- the speed of the vehicle exceeds
15 mph (25 km/h) with a manual
gearbox or 7 mph (11 km/h) with
the 6-speed electronic gearbox,

- the parking brake is being applied,

- some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature,
braking assistance, ambient
temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a
system.
In this case the "ECO"

warning lamp fl ashes for few
seconds, then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.

With a manual gearbox in STOP mode,
if a gear is engaged without fully
depressing the clutch pedal, a warning
lamp comes on or a message is
displayed asking you to depress the
clutch pedal to restart the engine.



Deactivation

At any time, press the "ECO
OFF"
switch to deactivate the
system.
This is confi rmed by the switch warning
lamp coming on accompanied by a
message in the screen.
If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.
