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  of f  gently  and  change  up  without
  waiting.   During   acceleration   change   up   early.
With
 
an
 
automatic
 
or
 
electronic
 
gearbox,
 
give
 
preference
 
to
 
automatic

 
mode
 
and
 
avoid
 
pressing
 
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  accel -
erator
 
progressively
.  
These
 
practices
 
contribute
 
towards
 
a
 
reduction

  in   fuel   consumption   and   CO
2 emissions and also helps
 
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.
Control the use of your electrical equipment
Before moving  of f,  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
 
(sun
-
roof
  and   window   blinds...).
Switch
 
of
f  
the
 
air
 
conditioning,
 
unless
 
it
 
has
 
automatic
 
regu
-
lation,
  as   soon   as   the   desired   temperature   is   attained.
Switch
 
of
f  
the
 
demisting
 
and
 
defrosting
 
controls,
 
if
 
not
 
au
-
tomatic.
Switch
  off   the   heated   seat   as   soon   as   possible.
Switch
 
of
f  
the
 
headlamps
 
and
 
front
 
foglamps
 
when
 
the
 
level of

  light   does   not   require   their   use.
Avoid
 
running
 
the
 
engine
 
before
 
moving
 
of
f,  
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
 
to
-
wards
 
limiting
 
the
 
consumption
 
of
 
electrical
 
energy
,  
and
 
so
 
of

  fuel.
Disconnect
 
your
 
portable
 
devices
 
before
 
leaving
 
the
 
ve
-
hicle.
ECO-DRIVING
The gear  shift  indicator  invites  you  engage  the  most  suit -
able  gear:  as  soon  as  the  indication  is  displayed  in  the  in -
strument
  panel,   follow   it   straight   away.
For
 
vehicles
 
fitted
 
with
 
an
 
electronic
 
or
 
automatic
 
gearbox,
 
this

  indicator   appears   only   in   manual   mode.

BRAKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Group of supplementary  systems  which help
 you  to  obtain  optimum  braking  in complete

  safety   in   emergency   situations:
-
 
anti-lock
  braking   system   (ABS),
-
 
electronic
 
brake
 
force
 
distribution
 
(E

b F d ),
-
 emergency

  braking   assistance   (EBA).
When
 
braking
 
in
 
an
 
emergency
,  
press

 
very
 
firmly
 
without
 
releas
-
ing
  the   pressure. When
 
replacing
 
wheels
 
(tyres
 
and

 
rims),
 
ensure
 
that
 
they
 
con
-
form
 
to
 
the
 
manufacturer's
 
rec
-
ommendations. When
 
braking
 
in
 
an
 
emergency
,  
press

 
firmly
 
without
 
releasing
 
the

  pressure.
Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which  improve  the  sta -
bility  and  manoeuvrability  of  your  vehicle when

 
braking,
 
in
 
particular
 
on
 
poor
 
or slippery

  surfaces.
Activation
The
 
anti-lock
 
braking
 
system
 
comes
 
into

 
operation
 
automatically
 
when
 
there
 
is

  a   risk   of   wheel   lock.
Normal
 
operation
 
of
 
the
 
ABS
 
may
 
make
 
itself

 
felt
 
by
 
slight
 
vibration
 
of
 
the
 
brake
 
pedal. Operating fault
If
 
this
 
warning
 
lamp
 
comes
 
on,
 
accompanied

 
by
 
an
 
audible
 
signal

 
and
 
a
 
message
 
in
 
the
 
screen,

 
it
 
indicates
 
a
 
malfunc
-
tion  
of
 
the
 
anti-lock
 
braking
 
system
 
which

 
could
 
result
 
in
 
loss
 
of
 
control
 
of
 
the

  vehicle   when   braking.
If  
this
 
warning
 
lamp
 
comes
 
on, together

 
with
 
the
 
ST
OP  
and ABS

 
warning
 
lamps,
 
accompa
-
nied  
by
 
an
 
audible
 
signal
 
and a

 
message
 
in
 
the
 
screen,
 
it
 
indicates
 
a malfunction

 
of
 
the
 
electronic
 
brake
 
force distribution

 
which
 
could
 
result
 
in
 
loss
 
of control

  of   the   vehicle   when   braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
Emergency braking assistance
System which,  in  an  emergency ,  en -
ables  you  to  obtain  the  optimum  braking  
pressure

 
more
 
quickly
,  
thus
 
reducing
 
the

  stopping   distance.
Activation
It
 
is
 
triggered
 
by
 
the
 
speed
 
at
 
which
 
the
 
brake

  pedal   is   pressed.
The
 
ef
fect  
of
 
this
 
is
 
a
 
reduction
 
in
 
the
 
resistance

 
of
 
the

A FEW DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS
Observe the driving  regulations  at  all  times
 and  remain  vigilant  whatever  the  
traffic

  conditions.
Pay
 
close
 
attention
 
to
 
the
 
traffic
 
and
 
keep

 
your
 
hands
 
on
 
the
 
wheel
 
so
 
that
 
you

 
are
 
ready
 
to
 
react
 
at
 
any
 
time
 
to
 
any

  eventuality.
On
 
a
 
long
 
journey
,  
a
 
break
 
every
 
two hours

  is   strongly   recommended.
In
 
difficult
 
weather
,  
drive
 
smoothly
,  
an
-
ticipate
 
the
 
need
 
to
 
brake
 
and
 
increase
 
the

  distance   from   other   vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise  against  driving  on  flooded
 roads,  as  this  could  cause  seri -
ous
 
damage
 
to
 
the
 
engine
 
or
 
gearbox,
 
as

 
well
 
as
 
to
 
the
 
electrical
 
systems
 
of
 
your

  vehicle.
Important!
Never drive  with  the  parking  brake
 applied  -  Risk  of  overheat -
ing
 
and
 
damage
 
to
 
the
 
braking
 
system!
Do

 
not
 
park
 
or
 
run
 
the
 
engine when

stationary in areas where
inflammable substances  and  ma -terials (dry grass,  dead  leaves...) might
 come  into  contact  with  the hot

 
exhaust
 
system 
-  
Risk
 
of
 
fire!
n

ever leave a vehicle unsuper-
vised
 
with
 
the
 
engine
 
running.
 
If
 
you have to leave your vehicle
with

 
the
 
engine
 
running,
 
apply
 
the

 
parking
 
brake
 
and
 
put
 
the
 
gearbox

 
into
 
neutral
 
or
 
posi
-
tion

N
or P,  
depending
 
on
 
the
 
type

  of   gearbox.
If
 
you

 
are

 
obliged

 
to

 
drive

 
through

 
water:
-

 
check

 
that

 
the

 
depth

 
of

 
water

 
does

 
not

 
exceed

 
15

 
cm,

 
taking

 
account

 
of

 
waves

 
that

 
might

 
be

 
generated

 
by

 
other users,
-

 
deactivate

 
the
 
Stop
 
&
 
Start
 
system,
-
 
drive

 
as

 
slowly

 
as

 
possible

 
without

 
stallin

g.
 
In

 
all

 
cases,

 
do

 
not

 
exceed

 
6

 
mph
 
(10
 
km/h),
-
 
do

 
not

 
stop

 
and

 
do

 
not

 
switch

 
of

f
 
the

 
engine.
On

 
leaving

 
the

 
flooded

 
road,

 
as

 
soon

 
as

 
circumstances

 
allow

,
 
make

 
several

 
light

 
brake

 
applications

 
to

 
dry

 
the

 
brake

 
discs

 
and
 
pads.
If
 
in

 
doubt

 
on

 
the

 
state

 
of

 
your

 
vehicle,

 
contact

 
a

 
CITROËN

 
dealer

 
or

 
a

 
quali

-
fied
 
workshop.
