Familiarisation















































Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2emissions.
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 efficiency 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 theaccelerator 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 fuelconsumption and CO2 emissions and also helpsreduce 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 byopening 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 canhelp keep the temperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and windowblinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic digital regulation, as soon as thedesired temperature is attained. Switch off the demisting and defrostingcontrols, if not automatic. Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.

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

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

As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, videogame...), you will contribute towards limitingthe consumption of electrical energy, and soof fuel.
Disconnect your por table devices beforeleaving the vehicle.

Driving





Cruise control
System which automatically maintains the vehicle speed at the value programmed by the driver, without any action on the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on
manually:
the vehicle speed must be at least 25 mph(40 km/h) and second gear or higher must be engaged in the case of a manual gearbox.
Th
e cruise control is switched offmanually, byfan action on the brake or clutch pedal or if theASC system is triggered.
The pro
grammed speed can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control cannot, in any circumstances, take the place of the need to comply with speed limits or of the vigilance and responsibility of the driver. The controls o
f this system are grouped
together on the steering wheel.1."ON/OFF"
button: activation / deactivation of the cruise control mode.

Driving
When the cruise control is in operation,pay attention if you press and hold oneof the programmed speed adjustment buttons: this can result in a very rapidchange in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery roads or in heavy traffic. On a steep descent, the cruise control will not be able to prevent the vehiclefrom exceeding the programmed speed.
To prevent the mat from becomingcaught under the pedals:


- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,


- never fit one mat on top of another.
