Under-inflation detection
This system monitors the pressures in the tyres
and alerts you in the event of an under-inflated
tyre. At low speed, this additional lighting increases
the driver's field of vision in corners,
junctions, when parking... by switching on the
corresponding front foglamp.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.
The number plate lamps, sidelamps and dipped
beam headlamps come on automatically
without any action by the driver when a low
level of ambient light is detected.

Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting.
During acceleration change up early.
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.
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...).
To save energy, do not set the air conditioning at too low a temperature.
As soon as the desired temperature has been reached, limit the use of
the air conditioning, except if regulation is automatic.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls as soon as you consider
possible.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and foglamp 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.
With an electronic gearbox, do not press 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 help 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.

situations, the power of their beams
may dazzle other drivers. They should
only be used in fog or snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps
and dipped beam headlamps manually
as the sunshine sensor may detect
sufficient light.
Do not forget to switch off the front
foglamps and the rear foglamp when
they are no longer necessary.Switching off the lamps
