ECO-DRIVING
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and
CO
2 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. 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 and
CO
2 emissions and also helps reduce
the background traffi c noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make
use of the system at speeds above
25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffi c is
fl owing 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
(sunroof and window blinds...).
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 (fi lm, 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.

INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS
Low fuel level
fi xed with the
needle in the
red zone,
accompanied
by an audible
signal and a
message.
When it fi rst comes on there
remains approximately 6 litres
of fuel in the tank.
At this point, you begin to
use the fuel reserve. Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out
of fuel.
Until suffi cient fuel has been added, this warning
lamp will come on every time the ignition is
switched on, accompanied by an audible signal
and a message.
This audible signal and message are repeated
with increasing frequency as the fuel level drops
towards "0"
.
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 60 litres
.
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel,
as this could damage the emission control and
injection systems.

MULTIFUNCTION SCREENS
This screen is opened and stored auto-
matically.
However, you can also open it, store it
and adjust it using the various manual
controls:
- opening or storing by means of
control A
,
- angle adjustments by means of
control B
.
It is also fi tted with safety auto-reverse
protection.
Opening the screen
)
With the screen stored, press
control A
to open it.
The screen opens automatically when
the ignition is switched on, when the au-
dio and telematics system is switched
on, when an outgoing telephone call is
made, when a voice command is given
and when a warning message linked with
the STOP warning lamp is received.
Closing the screen
)
With the screen open, press
control A
to store it.
The screen is stored automatically
when the ignition is switched off, after
approximately three seconds, if the au-
dio and telematics system is off.
If you wish the screen to open or
close automatically when the audio
and telematics system is switched
on or off, the screen must not be
closed when the audio and tele-
matics system is operating. When the screen is open, you can ad-
just it precisely in different ways:
)
press the corresponding part of
control B
to move the screen towards
you or towards the windscreen,
or
)
push or pull the screen gently by
hand.
Adjusting the position of the screen
Safety auto-reverse
If the screen meets an obstacle as it
opens or closes, the movement stops
immediately and is reversed by a few
millimetres.
After clearing the obstacle, issue the
command required again.
Storing the position of the screen
The system has four pre-set positions
in its memory.
Each time the screen is closed, the
system stores the last position of the
screen.
Each time the screen is re-opened, the
system returns the screen to the pre-set
position closest to that stored.
If you close the screen during op-
eration of the audio and telematics
system, it will re-open automatically
when an outgoing telephone call is
made, when a voice command is
given or when a warning message
linked with the STOP warning lamp
is received.

COMFORT
If after an extended stop in sun-
shine, the interior temperature is
very high, fi rst ventilate the pas-
senger compartment for a few mo-
ments.
Put the air fl ow 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. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILATION AND AIRCONDITIONING
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and main-
tenance 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 well as 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 perfect working order.
)
Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition and
have the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter.
Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purifi cation of
the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger
compartment (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 servicing
booklet.
)
If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed 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.
The condensation created by the
air conditioning results in a dis-
charge of water under the vehicle
which is perfectly normal.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems only work when the engine is run-
ning. To maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment,
you can temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start system (see "Driving").

8. Air intake / Air recirculation
Switching the system off
)
Turn the air fl ow control to the left
until all of the indicator lamps go off.
This action switches off the air condi-
tioning and the ventilation.
Temperature related comfort is no long-
er guaranteed but a slight fl ow of air,
due to the movement of the vehicle, can
still be felt.

)
As soon as possible, press this
button again to permit the intake of
outside air and prevent the formation
of condensation. The indicator lamp
on the button switches off.
For maximum cooling or heating
of the passenger compartment, it
is possible to exceed the minimum
value 14 or the maximum value 28.

the comfort value on the
passenger's side with that
on the driver's side (mono
zone). The indicator lamp in
the button comes on.
Air recirculation enables the passenger
compartment to be isolated from exte-
rior odours and smoke.
Switching the system off could result in
discomfort (humidity, condensation).
)
Press this button again to return
to automatic operation of the air
conditioning. The indicator lamp in
the "A/C"
button comes on.
