8Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday practices
that allow the motorist to optimise the vehicle's
energy consumption (fuel and/or electricity) and
CO
2 emissions.
Optimise your use of the gearbox
With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic
mode. Do not depress the accelerator pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The gear shift 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 practices
help to save on energy consumption, 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.
When the traffic is flowing smoothly, select the
cruise control.
Control the use of 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. 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
(e.g. sunroof blind, window blinds).
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.
Adapt your use of the headlamps and/or foglamps
to the level of visibility, in accordance with
current legislation in the country in which you are
driving.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter (other than in severe wintry
conditions: temperature below -23°C). The vehicle
will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, avoid connecting your multimedia
devices (e.g. film, music, video game) to help
reduce the consumption of energy.
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 (e.g. roof bars, roof rack, bicycle
carrier, trailer). 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 the 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 forget the spare wheel and, where
applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (e.g. engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment
filter, etc.). Observe the schedule of operations in
the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system
has a fault, 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 legal levels.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the third cut-out of the nozzle, 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).
Optimising the driving range (rechargeable
hybrid vehicles)
Connect the vehicle as soon as possible.
Favour the ECO zone of the power indicator by
driving smoothly and at a steady speed.

selected lighting is on.
A fault with a lamp is signalled by the
permanent illumination of this warning
lamp, accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal.
Rear foglamps
They only work if the dipped or main beam
headlamps are on.


►  Rotate the ring forwards/backwards to turn
them on/off.
When the lighting is switched off automatically
("AUTO" position) the foglamps and the dipped
beam headlamps remain on.

can be activated at the front.
For more information on the Adaptive Frontlight
System, refer to the corresponding section.
Switching on the foglamps is prohibited in
clear weather or in rain, both day and
night. In these situations, the power of their
beams may dazzle other drivers. They must
only be used in fog or falling snow (rules may
vary depending on country).
Do not forget to switch off the foglamps when
they are no longer necessary.
Switching off of the lighting when the

me-home lighting is activated.

64
Lighting and visibility04
Switching on the lamps after switching
off the ignition
To reactivate the lighting control, rotate the
ring to the "AUTO" position, then to the desired
position.
If the driver's door is opened, a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the lamps
are on.
They will go off automatically after a period of
time that depends on the level of charge in the
battery (entering energy economy mode).
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
Never look too closely at the light beam of
LED technology lamps - risk of serious eye
injury!


Travelling abroad
The design of the dipped beam headlamps
allows you to drive, without any modification,
in a country that drives on the other side of
the road to the country in which your vehicle
was sold.
Daytime running lamps/
Sidelamps
These LED lamps at the front and rear of the
vehicle light up automatically when the engine
starts.
They perform the following functions:
–

Da
ytime running lamps (lighting control stalk at
position "AUTO" with adequate ambient light).
–

Sidelamp
s (lighting control stalk at position
"AUTO" with low ambient light or "Sidelamps
only" or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").
Direction indicators

►  Left or right: lower or raise the lighting control
stalk, beyond the point of resistance.
If you keep the direction indicators on for
more than 20 seconds, the volume of the
audible signal will increase if the speed is
above 50 mph (80 km/h).
Three flashes
►  Press briefly upwards or downwards, without
going beyond the point of resistance; the direction
indicators will flash 3 times.
Parking lamps
(Depending on version)
Vehicle side marking by lighting the sidelamps on
the traffic side only.
►  Within one minute after switching off the
ignition, operate the lighting control stalk
upwards or downwards, depending on the side of
the traffic (e.g. when parking on the right, push
the lighting control stalk down to light up on the
left).
This is confirmed by an audible signal and the
lighting of the corresponding direction indicator
lamp on the instrument panel.
►  To switch off the parking lamps, return the
lighting control stalk to the central position.

camera, located at the top of the windscreen.
Operating limits
The system may be disrupted or not work
correctly:
–

When visibility c
onditions are poor
(e.g. snowfall, heavy rain).
–

If the windscreen is dirty
, misted-up or
masked (e.g. sticker) in front of the camera.
–

If the v
ehicle is facing highly reflective signs
or safety barrier reflectors.
The system is not able to detect:
– R oad users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians.
–

V
ehicles with hidden lighting (e.g. travelling
behind a safety barrier on the motorway).
–

V
ehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Maintenance
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
obstruct the camera.
Automatic headlamp
dipping
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations for automatic lighting
systems.
With the ring of the lighting control stalk in the
"AUTO" position and the function activated on the
touch screen, this system automatically switches
between dipped and main beam headlamps,

67
Lighting and visibility04
according to lighting and traffic conditions, using
a camera located at the top of the windscreen.


This system is a driving aid.
The driver remains responsible for
the vehicle's lighting, its correct use in the
prevailing light, visibility and traffic conditions,
and for compliance with driving and vehicle
regulations.
Activation/Deactivation
It is configured in the Settings > Vehicle
touch screen application.
The state of the system is stored when the
ignition is switched off.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
Operation
If the ambient light level is very low and traffic
conditions permit:
– The main beam headlamp s come
on automatically. These indicator
lamps light up on the instrument panel.
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or the
traffic conditions do not allow the main beam
headlamps to be lit:
– The dipped beam headlamp s
remain lit. These indicator lamps
light up on the instrument panel.
The function is deactivated if the foglamps are
switched on or if the system detects poor visibility
conditions (e.g. fog, heavy rain, snowfall).
When the foglamps are switched off or when the
visibility conditions become favourable again, the
function is automatically reactivated.
This indicator lamp goes out when the
function is deactivated.
Pause
If the situation requires a change of headlamp
beam, the driver can take over at any time.
►  Switch the headlamps manually between
dipped and main beam to pause the function.
If the "AUTO" and "Dipped beam" indicator lamps
were on, the system changes to main beam.
If the "AUTO" and "Main beam" indicator lamps
were on, the system changes to dipped beam.
►  To reactivate the function, once again switch
the headlamps manually between dipped and
main beam.
Malfunction
If a malfunction occurs with the system or
the camera, this warning lamp lights up on
the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Adaptive Frontlight
System
Available only on versions equipped with DS PIXEL
LED VISION 3.0 headlamps.
This function has several lighting modes, specific
to each driving situation.
The intensity and direction of the main headlamps
and the modules vary so as to increase or reduce
the range of the lighting.
The modules tilt so as to expand and direct the
light beam to increase or decrease the lighting up
of the sides of the road.
The function shifts the light beam to the sides
of the headlamp to ensure better illumination in
curves.
This function is a driving aid which
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
