As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your 
m ultimedia devices (film, music, video game, 
etc.), 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.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and 
c hange up without waiting. While accelerating, 
change up early.
With an automatic gearbox, give preference 
to automatic mode and avoid pressing the 
accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
The gear efficiency indicator invites you to 
engage the most suitable gear: as soon as the 
indication is displayed in the instrument panel, 
follow it straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox, 
this indicator appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, 
u se 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 
b
ackground 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 by 
opening the windows and air vents before 
using the air conditioning.
Above 31
  mph (50   km/h), close the windows 
and leave the air vents open.
Consider using equipment that can help 
keep the temperature in the passenger 
compartment down (sunroof blind and window 
blinds, etc.). Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps 
when the ambient light level does not require 
their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off, 
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up 
much faster while driving. Unless it has automatic regulation, switch off 
the air conditioning as soon as the desired 
temperature has been reached.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting 
controls, if these are not automatically 
managed.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as 
possible.

thirty seconds when the ignition is switched off, 
when the driver's door is opened and when the

change the units of distance and speed: 
The display of distance and speed must 
be expressed in the official unit of the 
country (km or miles). The change of units 
is done via the screen configuration menu, 
with the vehicle stationary.
