Parking sensors

This system measures the size of a free
parking space between two vehicles or
obstacles.

Stop & Start system

This system puts the engine temporarily into standby during
stops in the traffic (traffic lights, traffic jams, etc...). The engine
restarts automatically as soon as you want to move off. The
Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions, as well as noise levels when stationary.

Directional lighting

This lighting automatically provides
additional visibility when cornering.

Panoramic windscreen

This large glazed area provides
incomparable visibility and light in the
passenger compartment.

Cornering lighting

At low speed, this lighting comes on
automatically to improve vision when
cornering, at intersections, when parking...
making use of the front foglamp on the side
in question.

When switching the ignition on and off, the

Starting

Your vehicle is fitted with a system which
holds your vehicle stationary momentarily,
the time to move your foot from the brake to
the accelerator, to help with moving off on a
gradient.
This function is only active when:


- the vehicle is completely stationary with
your foot on the brake pedal,

- certain conditions of gradient are met,

- the driver's door is closed.

Stop & Start


Engine going into STOP mode


216

The "ECO"
warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel and the engine is
automatically put into standby:


- with a manual gearbox;
at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h), when you put the gear
lever into neutral and release the clutch
pedal,

- with an electronic gearbox;
at speeds
below 5 mph (8 km/h), when you press
the brake pedal or put the gear lever in
position N
.


Engine going into START mode

Deactivation / Reactivation

You can deactivate the system at any time by
pressing the "ECO OFF"
button; the button's
warning lamp comes on.

217



217


The system is reactivated automatically
every time you start the engine with
the key.
Before refuelling or doing anything
under the bonnet, you must switch off
the ignition with the key. The "ECO"
warning lamp goes off
and the engine restarts automatically:


- with a manual gearbox;
when you fully
depress the clutch pedal,

- with an electronic gearbox;



●
with the gear lever in position A
or M
,
when you release the brake pedal,

●
or gear lever in position N
and brake
pedal released, when you change to
position A
or M
,

●
or when you engage reverse.

In certain circumstances the STOP mode may
not be available; the "ECO"
warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds then goes off. In certain condition, START mode may engage
automatically; the "ECO"
warning lamp flashes
then goes off.
Driving safely

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 change up without waiting. During
acceleration change up early.

With an automatic or electronic gearbox,
give preference to automatic mode and avoid
pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or
suddenly.

The gear efficiency indicator invites you
to change up: as soon as the indication to
change up is displayed in the instrument
panel, follow it straight away.
With an electronic or 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 progressively. These
practices contribute towards a reduction in
fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions and also
helps reduce the background 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 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows
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 regulation, as soon as the desired
temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.

35

As a passenger, if you avoid connecting
your multimedia devices (film, music, video
game...), you will contribute towards limiting
the consumption of electrical energy, and so
of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before
leaving the vehicle.



Limit the causes of excess
consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the
heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as
close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,
bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in
preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.

At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and
refit your summer tyres.



Observe the recommendations
on maintenance

Check the tyre pressures regularly, when
cold, referring to the label in the door
aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:


- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan.

Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter...) and obser ve the
schedule of operations recommended by the
manufacturer.



When refuelling, do not continue after
the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any
over flow.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps
when the level of light does not require their
use.

Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm
up much faster while driving.

At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after
the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you
will see the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.
