7Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday practices
that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2emissions.
Optimise your use of the gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and
change up promptly. While accelerating, change
up early.
With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic
mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The gear efficiency indicator prompts you to
engage the most suitable gear: whenever this
indication is displayed on the instrument panel,
follow it straight away.
With an automatic gearbox, this indicator
appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use
engine braking rather than the brake pedal and
press the accelerator gradually. These attitudes
help to save fuel, reduce CO
2 emissions and
decrease general traffic noise.
Favour the use of the "Eco" driving mode by
selecting it using the "Drive Mode" control.
If the vehicle has the steering-mounted "CRUISE"
control, use cruise control at speeds above 25
mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.
Use electrical equipment wisely
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment
is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows
and air vents before using the air conditioning.
At speeds 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.
Unless automatically regulated, switch off the air
conditioning as soon as the desired temperature
has been reached.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
functions, if they are not managed automatically.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and foglamps when the
visibility conditions do not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up
much faster while driving.
As a passenger, avoid connecting your multimedia
devices (film, music, video game, etc.) to help
reduce consumption of electrical energy, and
hence fuel.
Disconnect all portable devices before leaving the
vehicle.
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the
heaviest items in the boot, as close as possible to
the rear seats. Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and minimise
wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle
carrier, trailer, etc.). Preferably, use a roof box.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit
summer tyres.
Comply with servicing instructions
Check tyre pressures regularly, with the tyres
cold, referring to the label in the door aperture on
the driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
–

before a long journe
y.
–

a
t each change of season.
–

a
fter a long period out of use.
Do not overlook the spare wheel and, where
applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil,
oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment filter,
etc.) and observe the schedule of operations in
the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system
is faulty, your vehicle will emit pollution; visit a
dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible
to restore your vehicle’s nitrogen oxide emissions
to regulatory compliance.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the third nozzle cut-out, to avoid overflow.
You will only see the fuel consumption of your new
vehicle settle down to a consistent average after
the first 1,900 miles (3,000 kilometres).

Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions
may be impaired or not work if the windscreen
area in front of the camera is dirty, misty,
frosty, covered with snow, damaged or masked
by a sticker.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun,
reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel,
alternating shade and light) can also impair
detection performance.
In the event of a windscreen replacement,
contact a dealer or a qualified workshop
to recalibrate the camera; otherwise, the
operation of the associated driving aids may
be disrupted.
Other cameras
The images from the camera(s) displayed
on the touch screen or on the instrument panel
may be distorted by the relief.
In the presence of areas in shade, or in
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate
lighting, the image may be darkened and with
lower contrast.
Obstacles may appear further away than they
actually are.
Sensors
The operation of the sensors as well as
the associated functions may be disturbed
by sound interference such as that emitted
by noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries,
pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of snow
or dead leaves on the road or in the event of
damaged bumpers and mirrors.
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors
may be dirty.
A front or rear impact to the vehicle can
upset the sensors’ settings, which is not
always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be distorted.
The sensors do not systematically detect
obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs)
or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).
Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind
spots may not be detected or may no longer be
detected during the manoeuvre.
Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
Maintenance
Clean the bumpers and door mirrors and
the field of vision of the cameras regularly.
When washing your vehicle at high pressure,
direct the spray from at least 30 cm away from
the radar, sensors and cameras.
Mats
The use of mats not approved by the
Manufacturer may interfere with the operation
of the speed limiter or cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
–

Ensure tha
t the mat is secured correctly.
–

Ne
ver fit one mat on top of another.
Units of speed
Ensure that the units of speed displayed
in the instrument panel (mph or km/h) are
those for the country you are driving in.
If this is not the case, when the vehicle is
stationary, set the display to the required
units of speed so that it complies with what is
authorised locally.
In case of doubt, contact a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation
Refer to the General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.

Recommendation

In addition to Speed Limit Recognition and
Recommendation, the driver can select the speed
displayed as a speed setting for the speed limiter
or cruise control using the speed limiter or cruise
control memorisation button.
If rain is detected, the system will suggest to the
driver a speed setting lower than the speed read/
obtained from the map in order to adapt to the
weather conditions (example: on a motorway,
the suggested speed will be 60 mph (97 km/h)
instead of 70 mph (112 km/h).
For more information on the Speed limiter,
Cruise control or Adaptive cruise control,
refer to the corresponding sections.

►  Switch on the speed limiter/cruise control.
The speed limiter/cruise control information is
displayed.
Upon detecting a sign suggesting a new speed
setting, the system displays the value and "MEM"
flashes for a few seconds, prompting you to save
it as the new speed setting.
If there is a difference of less than 6 mph
(9 km/h) between the speed setting and
the speed displayed by the Speed Limit
Recognition and Recommendation, the "MEM"
symbol is not displayed.
Depending on the road conditions, several speeds
may be displayed.
►  Press button 2once to save the suggested
speed value.
A message is displayed to confirm the request.
►  Press button 2again to confirm and save the
new speed setting.
The display then reverts to its previous state.
Extended Traffic Sign
Recognition
Refer to the General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.


This additional system recognises these road
signs and displays them in the instrument panel if
the appropriate display mode is selected.
One-way street: if you start driving the wrong
way down a one-way street, an alert message,
including the sign's symbol, is displayed in the
instrument panel (request to check the traffic
direction).
Other signs: when approaching one of these
signs, the sign’s symbol is displayed in the
instrument panel.
The actual road signs always take priority
over the display from the system.
The signs must comply with the Vienna
Convention on road signs.
Activation / Deactivation
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.
Speed limiter
Refer to the General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.
This system prevents the vehicle from
exceeding the speed programmed by the
driver (speed setting).
The speed limiter is switched on manually.
The minimum speed setting is 19 mph (30 km/h).
The speed setting remains in the system memory
when the ignition is switched off.

100
Driving06
Adjusting the limit speed
setting
You do not have to switch the speed limiter on in
order to set the speed.
To modify the limit speed setting based on the
vehicle’s current speed:
► Briefly press button 2 or 3 to change the value
in steps of + or - 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
►  Press and hold button 2 or 3 to change the
value in steps of + or - 5 mph (8 km/h).
To change the limit speed setting using
memorised speeds, via the touch screen:
►  Press button 5 to display the memorised speed
settings.
►  Press the touch screen button for the desired
speed setting.
The selection screen closes after a few moments.
This setting becomes the new limit speed.
To modify the cruise speed setting based on the
speed suggested by the Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation, as shown on the
instrument panel:
►  Press button 5 once; a message is displayed to
confirm the memorisation request.
►  Press button 5 again to save the suggested
speed.
The speed is immediately shown on the
instrument panel as the new speed setting.
Temporarily exceeding the
speed setting
►  Press the accelerator pedal down fully.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and
the displayed speed setting flashes.
► Release the accelerator pedal to return to
below the programmed speed.
When the limit speed is exceeded but this is not
due to action by the driver (in case of a steep
slope, for example), an audible signal triggers
immediately.
On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the speed setting.
Brake if necessary to control the speed of your
vehicle.
Once the speed of the vehicle returns to the
programmed setting, the speed limiter functions
again: the display of the speed setting becomes
fixed again.
Switching off
►  Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "OFF" position:
the display of information on the speed limiter
disappears.
Malfunction

The display of dashes (flashing then fixed)
indicates a fault with the speed limiter.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Cruise control - particular
recommendations
For the safety of everyone, only use the
cruise control where the driving
conditions allow running at a constant speed
and keeping an adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant when the cruise control is
activated. If you hold one of the speed setting
modification buttons down, a very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle may occur.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the set speed. Brake if necessary to
control the speed of your vehicle.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set speed
may not be reached or maintained.
Exceeding the programmed speed setting
The speed setting can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal
(the programmed speed flashes).
To return to the speed setting, release the
accelerator pedal (when this speed is reached
again, the display of the speed stops flashing).
