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: Â
a
s  soon  as  the  indication  is  displayed  in  the  instrument  panel,  follow  it Â
s
traight  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
 ope
n.
Remember
 to  make  use  of  equipment  that  can  help  keep  the
 t
emperature  in  the  passenger  compartment  down  (sunroof  and  window
 b
linds...).
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
 t
he  air  conditioning,  except  if  regulation  is  automatic.
Switch
 off  the  demisting  and  defrosting  controls  as  soon  as  you  consider
 p
ossible.
Switch
 off  the  heated  seat  as  soon  as  possible.
Switch
 off  the  headlamps  and  foglamp  when  the  level  of  light  does  not Â
r
equire  their  use.
Avoid
 running  the  engine  before  moving  off,  particularly  in  winter;  your Â
v
ehicle  will  warm  up  much  faster  while  driving.
As
 a  passenger,  if  you  avoid  connecting  your  multimedia  devices Â
(
film,  music,  video  game...),  you  will  contribute  towards  limiting  the Â
c
onsumption  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
Â
an
Â
electronic
Â
gearbox,
Â
do
Â
not
Â
press
Â
the
Â
accelerator
Â
pedal
Â
heavily
Â
o
r
 s
uddenly.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather t han  the  brake  pedal,  and  press  the  accelerator  progressively.  These Â
p
ractices  contribute  towards  a  reduction  in  fuel  consumption  and  CO
2
emissions
Â
and
Â
also
Â
help
Â
reduce
Â
the
Â
background
Â
traffic
Â
noise.
If
Â
your
Â
vehicle
Â
has
Â
cruise
Â
control,
Â
make
Â
use
Â
of
Â
the
Â
system
Â
at
Â
speeds
Â
a
bove
Â
25
Â
mph
Â
(40

Â
the
Â
traffic
Â
is

Indicator and warning lamps
Certain warning lamps may come on in one  of  two  modes:  fixed  (continuous)  or Â
f
lashing.
Only
 by  relating  the  type  of  illumination Â
t
o the operation of the vehicle can it
be
 determined  whether  the  situation  is Â
n
ormal  or  a  fault  has  occurred.  In  the Â
e
vent  of  a  fault,  the  illumination  of  the Â
w

a

Engine oil level indicator*
On versions fitted with an electric oil level indicator,  the  state  of  the  engine  oil  level  is Â
d
isplayed  in  the  instrument  panel  for  a  few Â
s
econds,  after  the  servicing  information.
The
 level  read  will  only  be  correct  if Â
t
he  vehicle  is  on  level  ground  and  the Â
e
ngine  has  been  off  for  more  than Â
3
0Â minutes.
Oil level correct
Oil level incorrect
This is indicated by the display of the message "Oil  level  incorrect"  in  the  instrument  panel Â
s
creen,  accompanied  by  the  service  warning Â
l
amp  and  an  audible  signal.
If
 the  low  oil  level  is  confirmed  by  a  check  using Â
t
he  dipstick,  the  level  must  be  topped  up  to Â
a
void  damage  to  the  engine.
Oil level indicator fault
This is signalled by the display of the message "Oil  level  measurement  invalid"  in  the Â
in
strument
 pan
el.

Â
Depending
Â
on
Â
version. In
 the  event  of  a  fault  with  the  electric  indicator, Â
t
he  oil  level  is  no  longer  monitored.
If
 the  system  is  faulty,  you  must  check  the Â
e

l
ocated  under  the  bonnet.

Total distance recorder
System which measures the total distance travelled  by  the  vehicle  during  its  life.
The
 total  distance  recorder  is  displayed Â
c
ontinuously  in  the  instrument  panel,  as  soon Â
a

 the  key  into  the  ignition  switch;  the Â
s

In
Â
certain  cases,  you  may  have  to  apply Â
m
ore  force  to  the  steering  (wheels  on Â
f
ull
 lock,  for  example).
F
Â
W
ith
Â
a  petrol  engine,  operate  the  starter Â
m
otor
 by  turning  the  key  to  position  3
without
 pressing  the  accelerator  pedal, Â
u
ntil
Â
the  engine  starts.  Once  the  engine  is Â
r
unning,  release  the  key. F
 W ith  a  Diesel  engine,  turn  the  key  to Â
p
osition 2,
 ignition  on,  to  operate  the Â
eng
ine
 p
re-heating
 s
ystem.
Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the instrument  panel  then  operate  the  starter m
otor  by  turning  the  key  to  position 3
without
 pressing  the  accelerator  pedal,
 u
ntil  the  engine  starts.  Once  the  engine  is
 r
unning,  release  the  key.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can  stay  on  for  a  longer  period.  When Â
t
he  engine  is  hot,  the  warning  lamp Â
d
oes  not  come  on. In
 temperate  conditions,  do  not  leave Â
t
he  engine  at  idle  to  warm  up  but  move Â
o
ff  straight  away  and  drive  at  moderate Â
s
peed.
Never  leave  the  engine  running  in Â
a
n  enclosed  area  without  adequate Â
v
entilation:
 in
ternal
 c
ombustion
 e
ngines  emit  toxic  exhaust  gases, Â
s
uch  as  carbon  monoxide.  Danger  of  i
ntoxication  and  death.
In  very  severe  wintry  conditions Â
(
temperatures  below  -23°C),  to  ensure Â
t
he  correct  operation  and  durability  of Â
t
he  mechanical  components  of  your Â
v
ehicle,  engine  and  gearbox,  it  is Â
n
ecessary  to  leave  the  engine  running Â
f
or  4  minutes  before  moving  off.
If
 the  engine  does  not  start  straight Â
a
way,  switch  off  the  ignition.  Wait  a  few Â
m
oments  before  operating  the  starter Â
m
otor  again.  If  the  engine  does  not Â
s
tart  after  several  attempts,  do  not  keep Â

Operation
Gear efficiency indicator
System which reduces fuel consumption by advising the driver to change up, on vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox.
T he  system  adapts  its  gear  change Â
r
ecommendation  according  to  the Â
d
riving  conditions  (slope,  load,  ...)  and Â
t
he  demands  of  the  driver  (power, Â
a
cceleration, Â braking, Â ...).
The
 system  never  suggests:
-
Â
e
ngaging  first  gear,
-
 enga
ging
 r
everse
 g
ear,
-
Â
e
ngaging  a  lower  gear.
Example:
-
Â
Y
ou  are  in  third  gear.
Depending
 on  the  driving  situation  and  your Â
v
ehicle's  equipment,  the  system  may  advise Â
y
ou  to  skip  one  (or  more)  gear(s).  You  can Â
f
ollow  this  instruction  without  engaging  the Â
i
ntermediate
 g
ears.
-
Â
Y
ou  press  the  accelerator  pedal.
-
Â
T
he  system  may  suggest  that  you  engage Â
a
 higher  gear.
The
 information  appears  in  the  instrument Â
p
anel  in  the  form  of  an  arrow,  accompanied  by Â
t
he  recommended  gear.
On
 certain  Diesel  versions  with  manual Â
g
earbox,  the  system  may  suggest Â
c
hanging  into  neutral  (N
 is  displayed  in Â
t
he  instrument  panel)  so  that  the  engine Â
c
an  go  into  standby  (STOP  mode Â
w
ith  Stop  &  Start),  in  certain  driving Â
c
onditions.
The
 gear  engagement  recommendations  must Â
n
ot  be  considered  compulsory.  In  fact,  the Â
c
onfiguration  of  the  road,  the  amount  of  traffic Â
a
nd  safety  remain  determining  factors  when Â
c
hoosing  the  best  gear.  Therefore,  the  driver Â
r
emains  responsible  for  deciding  whether  or  not Â
t
o  follow  the  advice  given  by  the  system.
This
 system  cannot  be  deactivated.
