Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. 
During acceleration change up early.
With an ETG electronic gearbox, give preference to automatic (Easy) 
mode and avoid 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 air conditioning, unless it has automatic 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.
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.
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
The gear efficiency indicator invites you engage the most suitable gear: 
as soon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it 
straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an ETG electronic gearbox, this indicator 
appears only in manual mode.
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.
