Stop & Start

This system puts the engine tempo-
rarily into standby during stops in the
traffi c (red lights, traffi c jams, etc...).
The engine restarts automatically as
soon as you want to move off.
Stop & Start reduces fuel consump-
tion, exhaust emissions and noise
when stationary.

Lane departure warning system

This driving aid warns you when you
unwittingly cross a lane marking.


Parking sensors (visual and
audible)

This system warns you if an obsta-
cle is detected in front of or behind
the vehicle.
Tyre under-infl ation detection

This system checks the pressure of
the tyres automatically while driving.
Xenon dual-function directional
headlamps

This system automatically provides
you with extra visibility on bends.
This lighting is linked with the cor-
nering lighting which maximises the
illuminated area at intersections and
when parking.

ECO-DRIVING

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 effi ciency indicator invites you to
change up; it is displayed in the instru-
ment panel, follow its instructions.

With an automatic or electronic gear-
box, stay in Drive "D"
or Auto "A"
, ac-
cording to the type of gearbox, without
pressing the accelerator pedal heavily
or suddenly.



Drive smoothly


Maintain a safe distance between ve-
hicles, 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
traffi c noise.

If your vehicle has cruise control, make
use of the system at speeds above
25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffi c is
fl owing well.



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 win-
dows 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 digital regulation, as
soon as the desired temperature is at-
tained.
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 fo-
glamps when the level of light does not
require their use.
Avoid running the engine before mov-
ing off, particularly in winter; your ve-
hicle will warm up much faster while
driving.

As a passenger, if you avoid connect-
ing your multimedia devices (fi lm, mu-
sic, video game...), you will contribute
towards limiting the consumption of
electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices be-
fore leaving the vehicle.
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions.

- sidelamps, to be seen,

- dipped beam headlamps to see
without dazzling other drivers,

- main beam headlamps to see
clearly when the road is clear.



Additional lighting

Other lamps are fi tted to fulfi l the re-
quirements of particular driving con-
ditions:


- a rear foglamp to be seen from a
distance,

- front foglamps for even better
forward vision,

- directional headlamps for im-
proved visibility when cornering,

- daytime running lamps to be
seen during the day.



Settings

Various automatic lighting control
modes are also available depending

Model with rear
foglamps only
Model with front and rear
foglamps





In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, use of the front foglamps
and the rear foglamps is prohibited.
In these situations, the power of
their beams may dazzle other dri-
vers. They should only be used in
fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, it is
your responsibility to switch on the
foglamps and dipped headlamps
manually as the sunshine sensor
may detect suffi cient light.
Do not forget to switch off the front
and rear foglamps when they are
no longer needed.

Lighting left on
When a front door is opened with
the ignition off and in manual light-
ing mode, an audible signal warns
the driver if the vehicle's lighting is
still on.
In this case, switching off the light-
ing stops the audible signal.
With the ignition off, if the dipped
headlamps remain on, they will
switch off automatically after thirty
minutes to prevent discharging of
the battery.

ment panel screen.
