Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday
practices that allow the motorist to optimise
the vehicle's energy consumption (fuel and/or
electricity) and CO
2 emissions.
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. Do not depress the accelerator pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The gear shift 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 practices
help to save on energy consumption, reduce
CO
2 emissions and decrease general traffic
noise.
When the traffic is flowing smoothly, select the
cruise control.
Control the use of 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.
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 (e.g.
sunroof blind, window blinds).
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.
Adapt your use of the headlamps and/or
foglamps to the level of visibility, in accordance
with current legislation in the country in which
you are driving.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter (other than in severe wintry
conditions: temperature below -23°C). The
vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (e.g.
film, music, video
game) to help reduce the consumption of energy.
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 (e.g.
roof bars, roof
rack, bicycle carrier, trailer). 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 the 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 forget the spare wheel and, where
applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (e.g.

engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment
filter, etc.). Observe the schedule of operations in
the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system
has a fault, 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 legal levels.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the third cut-out of the nozzle, 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).

70
Practical information
Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing
engine performance. The maximum towable load
must be reduced by 10% per 1,000 metres of
altitude.
Use genuine towing devices and wiring
harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. We
recommend having them fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If not fitted by a PEUGEOT dealer, they must
still be fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aid functions
are automatically deactivated while an
approved towing system is in use.
For more information about driving with a
towing device fitted to a trailer and associated
with the Trailer stability assist, refer to the
corresponding section.
Comply with the maximum authorised
towable weight, as indicated on your
vehicle's registration certificate, on the
manufacturer's label and in the Technical
data section of this guide.
If using accessories attached to the
towing device (e.g. bicycle carriers, tow
boxes):
–

Comply with the maximum authorised nose
weight.
–


Do not transport more than 4 conventional
bicycles or 2 electric bicycles.
When loading bicycles onto a bicycle carrier
on a towball, be sure to place the heaviest
bicycles as close as possible to the vehicle.
Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving.
Very cold climate screen
(Depending on country of sale)
This removable device prevents the
accumulation of snow around the radiator
cooling fan.
In case of difficulty with installation/
removal
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Before any operation, ensure that the
engine is off and the cooling fan has
stopped.
It is essential to remove them when:
– the outside temperature exceeds
10°C.
–

recovery is in progress.
–


the speed is above 75 mph (120
km/h).
Fitting/Removing

► Place the screen in front of the front bumper .
► Insert the two lower fixing brackets 1
into the
bumper.
►

T
ilt the screen upwards, press on the two
upper fixing brackets 2 and insert them into the
bumper.
►

Check that the unit is firmly held by pressing
its edge.
T

o remove it, carry out these operations in
reverse order.
Roof bars
As a safety measure and to avoid damaging the roof, it is essential to use
transverse roof bars approved for your
vehicle.
Observe the instructions on fitting and use
contained in the guide supplied with the roof
bars.

71
Practical information
7Maximum load distributed over the
transverse roof bars, for a loading height
not exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle carrier):
75

kg.
As this value may change, please verify the
maximum load quoted in the guide supplied
with the roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed
of the vehicle to the profile of the road to
avoid damaging the roof bars and the fixings
on the vehicle.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in order
to comply with the regulations for transporting
objects that are longer than the vehicle.
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as close
as possible to the roof.
Secure the load firmly.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds and its
stability may be affected.
Regularly check the security and tight
fastening of the roof bars, at least before each
trip.
Remove the roof bars once they are no longer
needed.
Direct fitting on roof

The transverse bars must only be fixed at the
four anchorage points located on the roof frame.
These points are concealed by the vehicle doors
when the doors are closed.
The roof bar fixings have a stud which must be
inserted into the opening of each anchorage
point.
Bonnet
Stop & Start
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
you must switch off the ignition to avoid any
risk of the engine restarting automatically.
Take care with objects or clothing that could
be caught in the blades of the cooling fan
or in certain moving components - risk of
strangulation and serious injury!
The location of the interior bonnet release lever prevents the bonnet being
opened when the left-hand front door is
closed.
When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the bonnet stay
with care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
Cooling of the engine when stopped
The engine cooling fan may start after
the engine has been switched off.
Take care with objects or clothing that
could be caught in the blades of the fan!
