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 gen-
tly, 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 gear-
box, stay in Drive  "D" 
 or Auto  "A" 
, ac-
cording to the type of gearbox, without 
pressing the accelerator pedal heavily 
or suddenly.  
 
 
 
Drive smoothly 
 
 
Maintain a safe distance between vehi-
cles, use engine braking rather than the 
brake pedal, and press the accelerator 
progressively. These practices contrib-
ute towards a reduction in fuel consump-
tion 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 be-
fore using the air conditioning. 
  Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the win-
dows and leave the air vents open. 
  Remember to make use of equipment 
that can help keep the temperature in 
the passenger compartment down (sun-
roof and window blinds...). 
  Switch off the air conditioning, unless 
it has automatic digital regulation, as 
soon as the desired temperature is at-
tained. 
  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 mov-
ing off, particularly in winter; your ve-
hicle will warm up much faster while 
driving.  
   
As a passenger, if you avoid connect-
ing your multimedia devices (fi lm, mu-
sic, video game...), you will contribute 
towards limiting the consumption of 
electrical energy, and so of fuel. 
  Disconnect your portable devices be-
fore leaving the vehicle.
