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.
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.
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 19 mph (30 km/h) when traffic is flowing
smoothly.
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.
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.
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).

Practical information
reading and have an adverse effect on road holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi
engines)


To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the performance or fuel
consumption of its Diesel engines, PEUGEOT
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a Diesel Particle Filter
(DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of
the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake disc
wear, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Manual parking brake
If you notice excessive brake lever travel
or decreased effectiveness, the parking
brake must be adjusted, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Diesel fuel filter
The Diesel fuel filter is located under the bonnet,
close to the brake fluid reservoir.
If this warning lamp comes on, the filter
must be purged to remove water.
You can also purge the fuel filter regularly, every
time the engine oil is changed.
Bleeding the water in the filter

► Couple a clear hose to the bleed screw 1head.► Place the other end of the clear hose in a container.► Loosen bleed screw 2.► Switch on the ignition.► Wait for the scavenge pump to stop.► Switch off the ignition.► Tighten bleed screw 2.► Remove, then drain the clear hose and the container.► Start the engine.► Check that there are no leaks.
HDi engines make use of advanced
technology. Any intervention requires a
special qualification guaranteed by the
PEUGEOT dealer network or a qualified workshop .
Wheels and tyres
The inflation pressure of all tyres,
including the spare wheel, must be
checked on "cold” tyres.
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure
label are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven
for more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles
(10 kilometres) at over 31 mph (50 km/h), add 0.3 bar (30 kPa) to the values indicated on the
label.
Under-inflation increases fuel
consumption. Non-compliant tyre
pressure causes premature wear on tyres and
has an adverse effect on the vehicle's road
holding - risk of an accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the
braking and road holding performance of the
vehicle. It is recommended to regularly check the
condition of the tyres (tread and sidewalls) and
wheel rims as well as the presence of the valves.
When the wear indicators no longer appear set
back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is
less than 1.6 mm; it is imperative to replace the
tyres.
Using different size wheels and tyres from those
specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel
rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer
