Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices
t hat allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently
an d change up without waiting. During
acceleration, 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
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if these are not automatically
managed.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.
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.
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.
Consider using equipment that can help
keep the temperature in the passenger
compartment down (sunroof blind and window
blinds, etc.).
Unless it has automatic regulation, switch off
the air conditioning as soon as the desired
temperature has been reached. As a
passenger, if you avoid connecting your
multimedia 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.

The control switch, located in
the glove box, is set to the " OFF"

You can install a "rearward" facing
child seat, unless there is a
fault with
the airbags (airbag warning lamp on). To activate the passenger front airbag, turn the
control to the "
ON" position.
In this case, do not fit a
child seat in the "rear ward"
facing position.
Stop & Star t Fixed.
When the vehicle stops (red lights, traffic
jams, etc.) the Stop & Start system puts
the engine into STOP mode.The warning lamp goes off and the engine restarts
automatically in START mode, as soon as you want
to move off.

A few definitions
Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still be
travelled with the fuel remaining
in the tank (at the average fuel
consumption seen over the last
distance travelled).
This value may fluctuate if a
change
of driving style or terrain results in
a

significant change in the current fuel
consumption.
When the range falls below around 20
miles
(30

km), dashes are displayed. After filling with
at least 5

litres of fuel, the range is recalculated
and is displayed if it exceeds around 60
miles
(10 0


k m).
If dashes instead of figures continue to be
displayed when driving, contact the dealer
network or a
qualified workshop.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or km/l or l/100 km)
C alculated during the last few
seconds. This function is only displayed from
around 20 mph (30 km/h).
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or km/l or l/100 km)
C alculated since the last time the
trip recorder was reset to zero.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
Calculated since the last time the
trip recorder was reset to zero.
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
Calculated since the last time the
trip recorder was reset to zero.
Distance remaining to travel
(miles or km)
This is the distance remaining to
travel before the final destination is
reached. It can be input by the user.
If the distance is not entered, dashes
are displayed instead of numbers.
Stop & Start time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop &
Start, a time counter adds up the
time spent in STOP mode during
a


j o u r n ey.
It is reset to zero every time the
ignition is switched on using the key.

Safety anti-pinch
The sequential electrical window on the driver
side has an anti-pinch function.
When the window rises and meets an obstacle,
it stops and partially lowers again.
In the event of unwanted opening of the
window on closing (for example, when
f re ezing):
F

p

resistance and release it; the window
opens fully,
F

t

without passing the point of resistance
until the window is fully closed,
F

c
ontinue to hold the control for
approximately one second after the
window has closed.
The safety anti-pinch function is not
operational during these operations.
Reinitialisation
If a fault occurs, you must reinitialise the
el ectric window operation:
F

movement of the window.
Always remove the key from the ignition
when leaving the vehicle, even for a
short
time.
In the event of contact during operation
of the windows, you must reverse the
movement of the window. To do this, press
the switch concerned.
When the driver operates the passenger
electric window switch, they should ensure
that no-one is preventing correct closing
of the window.
Be particularly aware of children when
operating the windows.
