Display in the instrument panel


Cruise control

Speed limiter


The values must be set with the engine running.


In order to be programmed or activated, the
vehicle speed must be higher than 25 mph
(40 km/h), with at least four th gear engaged
on a manual gearbox (second gear on a
SensoDrive or automatic gearbox).

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 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 gear selector, 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
attitudes contribute towards a reduction in fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions and also helps
reduce the background traffic noise.

When the traffic is flowing well, and if you
have cruise control, make use of the system at
speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h).



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 compar tment down (sun roof 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.
