Eco- driving
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 ETG gearbox, give preference to
automatic mode (Easy) and avoid pressing the
accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
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.
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.
Consider using equipment that can help
keep the temperature in the passenger
compartment down (sunroof and window
b l i n d s …) .
Unless it has automatic regulation, switch off
the air conditioning as soon as the desired
temperature has been reached.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if not automatic.
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.
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.
Eco-driving is a

range of everyday practices
that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions.
T
he gear shift 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 ETG gearbox, this
indicator only appears in manual mode.

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 few miles
(kilometres) 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 level of fuel is low, the message "Lo
FUEL" is displayed.
While the level of the fuel is low, the range
cannot be recalculated.
Current fuel consumption

soon as possible.
When the seat and passenger
compartment have reached an
adequate temperature, you can stop
the function; reducing the consumption
of electrical current reduces fuel
consumption. Prolonged use at the highest setting is
not recommended for those with sensitive
skin.

If you stop the vehicle but keep the engine
running, you must always move the gear
selector to the neutral position N.
A continuous audible signal sounds if you
turn the ignition switch to " OFF" while the
vehicle is in 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th gear.
If this happens, turn the ignition switch
to " ON ", move the gear selector to the
position N , return it to position E , M or R,
then turn the ignition switch to " OFF".
If the vehicle is on a
slope, use the brake
to stop the vehicle from moving and place
the gear selector to position N , E or R.
In all cases, you must apply the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle.
Before doing anything in the engine
compartment, make sure that the gear
selector is in neutral N and the parking
brake is applied.Operating limits
When on a slope or when hill start assist is
a ctivated, never keep the vehicle stationary
using the accelerator: you could damage the
clutch.
In these situations, an audible signal sounds.

Gear shift indicator
System which reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and the
equipment of your vehicle, the system can
recommend you to change gear.
Gear shift recommendations are for information
only. In fact, the road layout, the traffic density
and safety remain the deciding factors when
choosing the best gear. The driver therefore
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the indications issued by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
Example:
-

Y
ou are in third gear.
-

Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.
-

T
he system may suggest that you engage
a


higher gear.

Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
-

w

hen the vehicle is stationary, you put the
gearbox into neutral and release the clutch
pedal.
Stop & Starttime counters
A partial time counter counts the periods in
STOP mode during a journey. For your convenience during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a
few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
Stop & Start does not change features
of the vehicle such as braking, power
steering…
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
traffic stops (red lights, traffic jams, etc.). The
engine restarts automatically – START mode
– as soon as you want to move off. Restarting
occurs instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary. -

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressure in all four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised after ever y tyre
pressure adjustment or wheel change.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a
drop in the pressure of one or more
tyres. The tyre under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
This system still requires you to check the
tyre inflation pressure (including the spare
wheel) every month as well as before
a


long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
handling, extends braking distances and
causes early tyre wear, particularly in
adverse conditions (heavy loads, high
speeds, long journeys).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption. The tyre pressure specifications for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Tyre pressures should be checked when
the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1 hour or after a journey of less than
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to the
pressures shown on the label.Under-inflation alert
This is shown by the warning lamp
coming on, fixed, accompanied by
an audible signal.

top as soon as it is safe to do so.
This system automatically monitors the tyre
pressure while driving.
Detection of loss of pressure does not
always bring about a visible deformation
of the tyre. Do not make do with just
a

visual check.

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.
Brake disc/drum wear
For information on checking
brake disc/drum wear, contact
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
e ffectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Wheels and tyres
The pressure must be checked on
all tyres, including the spare wheel,
when the tyres are "cold", at least
once a month and before a long
j o u r n ey. Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces
braking efficiency and control of the vehicle's
steering. Regular inspections of the condition
of tyres (tread and sides) and rims are
recommended as well as making sure that
valves are fitted.
Using different size wheels and tyres from
those specified can affect the lifetime of tyres,
wheel rotation, ground clearance and the
speedometer reading and have an adverse
effect on road holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
ETG gearbox
The ETG gearbox does not require
any maintenance (no oil change).
The pressures given 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 more than 31 mph (50 km/h),
0.3
bar (30 kPa) should be added to the values
given 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!
