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.
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, change up without waiting and
drive by changing up quite soon.
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.
The gear shift indicator invites you to select the most suitable gear:
once the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow the
advice straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an electronic or automatic gearbox, this indicator
only appears 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 (window blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning 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 foglamp 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.

Automated mode
AUTO and the gear engaged appear
in the instrument panel.
Manual mode
The gears engaged appear in
succession in the instrument panel.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any action on the part of the
driver. It continuously selects the most suitable
gear taking account of:

ehicle load.
For optimum acceleration, when overtaking
another vehicle for example, press the
accelerator pedal fully down, beyond the point
of resistance. The gear change requests are only carried out
if the engine speed permits.
It is not necessary to release the accelerator
pedal during gear changes.
When braking or slowing down, the gearbox
changes down automatically so that the vehicle
picks up in the right gear.
Under full acceleration, the change up will
not take place unless the driver operates the
gear selector (unless the engine is close to its
maximum speed).
Never select neutral (position N ) when
moving. You can change mode at any time by
moving the gear selector from A to M or
the other way round.

In the event of a fault with the system, the
indicator lamp in the "ECO OFF" button
flashes for a few moments, then comes on
continuously.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall. All of the warning lamps
in the instrument panel come on. It is then
necessary to switch off the ignition and start
the engine again using the key.
Operating fault
The Stop & Start system requires a
12 V battery with a special specification
and technology.
All work on this type of battery must be
carried out only by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
For more information on the 12 V
battery, refer to the corresponding
section.
Press this button to deactivate the system.
Deactivation is confirmed by illumination of the
indicator lamp in the button and the display of
a message.
Pressing this button again reactivates the
system.
The indicator lamp in the button goes off,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Deactivation / Manual
reactivation
In certain cases, such as the need to maintain
a comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment, it may be useful to deactivate the
Stop & Start system.
The system can be deactivated at any time, once
the ignition is on.
If the engine is in STOP mode, it then restarts.
The Stop & Start system is reactivated
automatically every time the ignition is switched on.
Opening the bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid the risk of injury related to an
automatic change to START mode.
Driving on flooded roads
Before driving through a flooded road,
it is strongly recommended that you
deactivate the Stop & Start system.
For more advice on driving, particularly
on flooded roads, refer to the
corresponding section.

Under-inflation detection
The under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous condition
(high loading, high speed, long journey).The inflation pressures defined 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.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed
.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.

Checking levels
Engine oil level
The check of the oil level is carried
out with the dipstick, located under
the bonnet. For the position of the
dipstick, refer to the under-bonnet
view on a previous page.Checking with dipstick
If you find that the oil level is above the A mark
or below the B mark, do not star t the engine.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could start at
any time (even with the ignition off).
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
It is normal to top up the oil level
between two services (or oil changes).
PEUGEOT recommends that you check
the level, and top up if necessary, every
3 000 miles (5 000 km).
To ensure the accuracy of the reading, your
vehicle must be on a level sur face, with the
engine off for at least 30 minutes.
