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).

Deactivation / Reactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle stuck
in mud, immobilised in snow, on soft ground, etc.),
it may be useful to deactivate the ASR system to
freely spin the wheels and regain traction.
Reactivate the system as soon as the level of grip
permits.
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.
Deactivation is confirmed by the
illumination of this indicator lamp in the
instrument panel and the display of a message.
The ASR system is reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched back on or
from 31 mph (50 km/h).
Reactivation is manual below 31 mph (50 km/h).
Malfunction
In the event of a system malfunction, this
warning lamp comes on, accompanied by
an onscreen message and audible signal.
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop to have
the systems checked.
ASR / DSC
These systems enhance safety during
normal driving, but should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at high speed.
It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain, snow,
ice) that the risk of loss of grip increases. It
is therefore important for your safety to keep
these systems activated in all conditions, and
particularly in difficult conditions.
For technical reasons, in particular to
improve the quality of telematic services
for customers, the Manufacturer reserves the
right to carry out updates to the vehicle's
on-board telematic system at any time.
If you benefit from the DS CONNECT BOX
offer with the SOS and Assistance Pack
included, you have available additional
services in your personal space, via the
website in your country.
For information about the SOS and Assistance
Pack, please refer to the general conditions for
these services.
Electronic stability control
(ESC)
The electronic stability control programme
includes the following systems:
–
An
ti-lock braking system (ABS) and Electronic
brake force distribution (EBFD).
–
Emergenc
y braking assistance (EBA).
–
An
ti-slip regulation (ASR).
–
Dynamic st
ability control (DSC).
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and Electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems enhance the vehicle’s stability
and handling during braking, and enable greater
control while cornering, particularly on poor or
slippery road surfaces.
ABS prevents wheel locking in the event of
emergency braking.
EBFD manages the braking pressure wheel by
wheel.
This warning lamp comes on fixed in the
event of an ABS malfunction.
The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
carefully at a moderate speed.
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop as soon
as possible.
This warning lamp, when lit together with
the STOP and ABS warning lamps,
accompanied by a message and an audible signal,
indicates an EBFD malfunction.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.
The normal operation of the ABS may
result in slight vibrations in the brake
pedal.
When braking in an emergency, press very
firmly and maintain this pressure.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach
the optimum braking pressure more quickly and
therefore reduce the stopping distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which the
brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a reduction
in the resistance of the pedal and an increase in
braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR) /
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
Anti-slip regulation optimises traction using
engine braking and by applying the brakes on the
driving wheels to avoid wheel spinning. It also
enhances the vehicle's directional stability while
accelerating.
If there is a difference between the vehicle’s
trajectory and the path desired by the driver, the
dynamic stability control system automatically
uses engine braking and the brakes on one or
more wheels to return the vehicle to the desired
path, within the limits of the laws of physics.
These systems are activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event of a grip or
trajectory problem.
This warning lamp on the instrument panel
flashes to indicate that they are operating.

– Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.
Towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
particular care must be taken.
Do not exceed the maximum towable
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by 10%
per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower air
density at high altitudes decreases engine
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle
and the nose weight (at the point where it joins
your vehicle) approaches the maximum permitted
without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle
and of the trailer, observing the recommended
pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine towing device is used, the
rear parking sensors will be deactivated
automatically to avoid the audible signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant
temperature to increase. The maximum towable
load depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not
increase with engine speed.
► Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to
limit heating up.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as
possible.
Brakes
Braking distances are increased when towing a
trailer. To avoid overheating the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more
susceptible to wind when towing.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys include an electronic engine immobiliser
system, with a code that must be recognised in
order for starting to be possible.
If the system malfunctions, indicated by the
display of a message, the engine will not start.
Contact a dealer.
Starting/Switching off the
engine
The electronic key must be present in the
passenger compartment.
For versions equipped with Proximity Keyless
Entry and Start, the electronic key is also
detected in the boot.
If it is not detected, a message is displayed.
Move the electronic key so that the engine can
be started or switched off.
If there is still a problem, refer to the "Key not
detected - Back-up starting or Back-up switch-
off" section.

Restarting the engine (START mode)
The engine automatically restarts as soon as the
driver indicates the intention of moving off again.
► With a manual gearbox: with the clutch pedal
fully depressed.
► With an automatic gearbox:
•
With the select
or in position D or M: with the
brake pedal released.
•
With the select
or in position N and the brake
pedal released: with the selector at D or M.
•
With the select
or in position P and the brake
pedal depressed: with the selector at R, N, D
or M.
•
R
everse gear engaged.
Special cases
The engine restarts automatically if all the
operating conditions are met again and in the
following cases.
–
With a manual gearbo
x: vehicle speed exceeds
2.5 mph (4 km/h),
–
With an aut
omatic gearbox, in mode N, vehicle
speed exceeds 0.6 mph (1 km/h).
In these cases, this indicator lamp flashes
for a few seconds, then goes off.
Malfunctions
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp flashes for a few moments, then
remains on, accompanied by an onscreen
message.
Have the vehicle checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The vehicle stalls in STOP mode
All of the instrument panel warning lamps come
on if there is a fault.
► Switch off the ignition then start the engine
again with the "START/STOP" button.
The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V
battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work concerning the battery must be
carried out only by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Under-inflation detection
This system automatically checks the pressures
of the tyres while driving.
It compares the information given by the wheel
speed sensors with reference values, which must
be reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are
adjusted or a wheel changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects
a drop in the inflation pressure of one or more
tyres.
Under-inflation detection does not replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
regularly check the tyre pressures (including
the spare wheel) as well as before a long
journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly
in adverse conditions (heavy load, high speed,
long journey):
–
w
orsens road-holding.
–
lengthens braking dist
ances.
–
c
auses premature wear of the tyres.
–
increase
s fuel consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for the
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the Identification
markings, refer to the corresponding section.
Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when the
tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or
after a journey of less than 6 miles (10 km) at
moderate speeds).
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures shown
on the label.
Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of
this warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
► Reduce speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and avoid sudden braking.
► Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Page 96 of 244

Driving06
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
► Using a compressor, such as the one in
the temporary puncture repair kit, check the
pressures of the four tyres when cold.
► If it is not possible to make this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.
► In the event of a puncture, use the temporary
puncture repair kit or the spare wheel (depending
on equipment).
The alert is kept active until the system is
reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressure of one or more tyres,
and after changing one or more wheels.
Before reinitialising the system, make
sure that the pressures of the four tyres
are correct for the conditions of use of the
vehicle and conform to the values written on
the tyre pressure label.
Check the pressures of the four tyres before
performing the reinitialisation.
The system does not advise if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
With the vehicle stationary, the system is
reinitialised via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu..
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
Malfunction
These warning lamps come on in
the event of a malfunction.
A message appears, accompanied by an audible
signal.
In this case, the tyre under-inflation monitoring
function is no longer performed.
Have the system checked by a dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Driving and manoeuvring
aids - General
recommendations
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway
Code, must remain in control of the vehicle in
all circumstances and must be able to retake
control of it at all times. The driver must adapt
the speed to climactic conditions, traffic and
the state of the road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
check the traffic, to assess the relative
distances and speeds of other vehicles and to
anticipate their movements before indicating
and changing lane.
The systems cannot exceed the limits of the
laws of physics.
Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel
with both hands, always use the interior and
exterior rear view mirrors, always keep the feet
close to the pedals and take a break every two
hours.
Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the
surroundings of the vehicle before and during
the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the
mirrors.
Radar
The operation of the radar as well as the
associated functions may be impaired through
the accumulation of dirt (mud, frost, etc.),
in certain difficult weather conditions (very
heavy rain, snow) or if the bumper is damaged.
If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact
a dealer or a qualified workshop; certain types
of paint could interfere with the operation of
the radar.
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

Practical information07
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the engine
oil is changed.
Particle filter (Diesel)
When the particle filter is approaching
saturation, this warning lamp comes on
temporarily, accompanied by a message warning
of the risk of filter clogging.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a speed of at
least 37 mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp
goes off.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you
may, in exceptional circumstances, notice the
emission of water vapour at the exhaust while
accelerating. This has no impact on the
vehicle’s behaviour or the environment.
New vehicle
During the first few particle filter
regeneration operations, you may notice a
"burning" smell. This is perfectly normal.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any routine
servicing. However, in case of an issue, do
not hesitate to have the system checked by a
dealer or a qualified workshop.
For more information on the Electric
parking brake, refer to the corresponding
section.
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style of driving,
particularly in the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the
brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads are
worn.
After washing the vehicle, moisture, or in
wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may
be reduced. Gently dab the brakes to dry and
defrost them.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake disc
wear, contact a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Wheels and tyres
The inflation pressure of all tyres,
including the spare wheel, must be
checked on "cold” tyres.
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure label
are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for
more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles (10
kilometres) at over 31 mph (50 km/h), add 0.3 bar
(30 kPa) to the values indicated on the label.
Under-inflation increases fuel
consumption. Non-compliant tyre
pressure causes premature wear on tyres and
has an adverse effect on the vehicle's road
holding - risk of an accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the
braking and road holding performance of the
vehicle. It is recommended to regularly check the
condition of the tyres (tread and sidewalls) and
wheel rims as well as the presence of the valves.
When the wear indicators no longer appear set
back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is
less than 1.6 mm; it is imperative to replace the
tyres.
Using different size wheels and tyres from those
specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel
rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer

After use, do not discard the bottle in standard
waste, take it to a dealer or an authorised
waste disposal site.
Do not forget to obtain a new bottle of
sealant, available from a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
► Drive immediately for approximately 3 miles
(5 kilometres) at reduced speed (between 12 and
37 mph (20 and 60 km/h)) to plug the puncture.
► Stop to check the repair and the tyre pressure
using the kit.
With a tyre repaired using this type of kit,
do not exceed a speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h) and do not drive more than
125 miles (200 km).
