Eco- driving
Optimise the use of your
gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently
and change up without waiting. During
acceleration, change up early.
With an automatic gearbox, give preference
to automatic mode and avoid 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 and
CO
2 emissions and also help reduce the
background 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 blind and window blinds, etc.).
Unless it has automatic regulation, switch off
the air conditioning as soon as the desired
temperature has been reached.
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.
The 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 automatic gearbox,
this indicator appears only in manual mode. 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.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if these are not automatically
managed.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices
that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions.

Turn off the demisting/defrosting of
the rear screen and the side mirrors
(depending on the version) as soon as
you consider it necessary.
Lower energy consumption reduces
fuel consumption.Advice
In order for these systems to be fully
effective, follow the operation and
maintenance guidelines below:
F
T
o ensure that the air is distributed
evenly, keep the external air intake
grilles at the base of the windscreen, the
nozzles, the vents, the air outlets and the
air extractor located in the rear free from
obstructions.
F

O
perate the air conditioning system for
at least 5 to 10
minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in per fect working order.
F

T
o prevent misting or deteriorating
air quality inside the passenger
compartment, you should not deactivate
the system for too long and avoid
extended operation of the air recirculation
system when driving.
F

E
nsure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the
filter elements replaced regularly.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment 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 compartment (reduction of
allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy
deposits). F
T o ensure correct operation of the air
conditioning system, you are also advised
to have it checked regularly according to
the Warranty and Maintenance Record
recommendations.
F

I
f 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
the air conditioning increases the available
engine power and so improves the towing
ability.

Fittings
Glove box
It can be used to hold a water bottle, the
vehicle's handbook pack, etc.
Depending on version, it may have a lid. In this
case:
F
T
o open the glove box, raise the handle.
Removable ashtray
F Raise the cover to open the ashtray.
F T o empty it, with the cover raised, pull the
ashtray upward.
It contains the front passenger airbag
deactivation switch.
To avoid any problem of inter ference
or risk of overturning, do not place the
ashtray near the gear lever.
Sun visor
Provides protection against sunlight from the
front or the side.
The passenger's sun visor is fitted with a vanity
mirror with a blind and a ticket holder.
If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very high,
first air the passenger compartment for
a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough 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.
Stop & Star t
The heating and air conditioning systems
only work when the engine is running.
To maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment, you can
temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system.
