Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2emissions.


Optimise the use of your gearbox


With a manual gearbox, move off gently, change up without waiting and drive by changing up quite soon. If your vehicle has the system,
the gear shift indicator invites you to change up; it is displayed in the instrument panel, follow its instructions.


With an automatic or electronic gearbox, stay in Drive "D"or Auto "A"
, according to the type of gearbox, without pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.



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 andCO2emissions 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 compar tment 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 thetemperature in the passenger compar tment down (sunroof and windowblinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic digital 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.

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.


As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting theconsumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.

Disconnect your por table devices before leaving the vehicle.

Air intake flow

The incoming air follows various paths
depending on the controls selected by the
driver:


- direct arrival in the passenger compartment (air intake),

- passage through a heating circuit (heating),

- passage through a cooling circuit (air conditioning).


Control panel

The controls of this system are grouped
together on control panel A on the centre console. 1.Windscreen demisting-defrosting vents.2.
Front side window demisting-defrosting
vents. 3. Side adjustable air vents.
4.Central adjustable air vents.
5.Air outlets to the front footwells.
6. Air outlets to the rear footwells.
Air distribution
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger compartment
is filtered and originates either from the outside
via the grille located at the base of the windscreen or from the inside in air recirculation mode.

64
Comfort
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below: )To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles
located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as wellas the air extractor located in the boot. )Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation of the digital air conditioning system. )Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it in per fect working order. )Ensure that the passenger compar tment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly. We recommend the use of a combined passenger compar tment filter. Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compar tment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).)To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have it checked regularly as recommended in the ser vicing booklet.)If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off theair conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.











Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning


If after an extended stop in sunshine, the interior temperature is very high, firstventilate the passenger compar tment for
a few moments. Put the air flow control at a setting highenough to quickly change the air in the passenger compartment.

The air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.


The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the vehicle which isperfectly normal.




Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems only work when the engine is running. To maintaina comfor table temperature in the passenger compartment, you can temporarily deactivatethe Stop & Start system (see the corresponding section).

1. Temperature adjustment
) Turn the dial from blue(cold) to red (hot) to adjust
the temperature to your
requirements.The air conditioning system only operates with the engine running.


2. Air fl ow adjustment
)Turn the dial from position 1
to position 6to obtain a comfortable air flow.



If you put the air flow control in position 0(system off), the temperature is no longer controlled. However,a slight flow of air can still be felt, resulting from the movement of the vehicle.

The air distribution can be adapted
by placing the dial in an intermediate
position. Th
e recirculation of interior air insulates the
passenger compar tment from exterior odoursand smoke.
Return to exterior air intake as soon as possible
to prevent deterioration of the air quality and
the formation of mist.

4. Air intake / Air recirculation
)
Press the button again to allow fresh air
into the passenger compar tment. The
indicator lamp goes off to confirm this.
) Press the button to recirculate
the interior air. The indicator lamp
comes on to confirm this.


5. Air conditioning On / Off
It enables you to:


- lower the temperature, in summer,

- increase the effectiveness of the demisting
in winter, above 3 °C.



Switching on
)Press the "A/C"
button, the button's
indicator lamp comes on.

Switching off
)Press the "A/C"
button again, the button's
indicator lamp goes off.
Switching off may affect comfor t levels (humidity, condensation).

The air conditioning is designed to
operate effectively in all seasons, with the windows closed.
The air conditioning does not operate when the air flow adjustment control 2 isin position " 0".
To obtain cooled air more quickly, you can use
recirculation of interior air for a few moments.
Then return to fresh air intake.

Dual-zone digital air conditioning
The air conditioning can only operate with the engine running.


Automatic operation


1. Automatic comfort programme

Three modes are provided for the driver and for
the front passenger to select their desired level
o
f comfor t in the passenger compartment.

When the engine is cold, to prevent too great a distribution of cold air, the air flow will only reach its optimum levelgradually.

In cold weather, it favours thedistribution of warm air to the windscreen, the side windows and the footwells only.

The driver and front passenger can each set
the temperature to suit their requirements.

The value indicated in the screen corresponds
