Eco-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.
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 (sunroof blind and window blinds, etc.).
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 journey
 .
–
 
at each change of season.
–
 
after 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 PEUGEOT 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).

AdBlue® range indicators 
(BlueHDi)
The Diesel BlueHDi engines are equipped with 
a system that associates the SCR (Selective 
Catalytic Reduction) emissions control system 
and the Diesel particle filter (DPF) for the 
treatment of exhaust gases. They cannot 
function  without AdBlue
® fluid.
When the level of AdBlue® falls below the 
reserve level (between 1,500 and 0 miles (2,400 
and 0
 
km)), a warning lamp lights up when 
the ignition is switched on and an estimate 
of the distance that can be travelled before 
engine starting is prevented is displayed in the 
instrument panel.
The engine starting prevention system  required by regulations is activated 
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is empty. 
It is then no longer possible to start the 
engine until the minimum level of AdBlue® has 
been topped up.
Manually displaying the driving range
While the driving range is greater than 
1,500 miles (2,400   km), it is not displayed 
automatically.
You can view the range information by 
pressing the " Check
  / Diagnostic" button 
in the touch screen’s Driving
  / Vehicle menu.
Actions required related to a lack of AdBlue®
The following warning lamps light up when the 
quantity  of AdBlue® is lower than the reserve 
level corresponding to a range of 1,500 miles 
(2,400 km).
Together with the warning lamps, messages 
regularly remind you of the need to top up to 
avoid engine starting being prevented. Refer to 
the Warning and indicator lamps  section for 
details of the messages displayed.
For more information on  AdBlue® 
(BlueHDi engines), and in particular on 
topping up, refer to the corresponding section.
