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.
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.
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.
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 traffic noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make
use of the system at speeds above 25 mph
(40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting
your multimedia devices (film, 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.
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 attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.

Limit the causes of
excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle;
place the heaviest items in the bottom of
the boot, as close as possible to the rear
seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof
rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof
box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres
and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when
cold, referring to the label in the door
aperture, 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.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres
on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and observe
the schedule of operations recommended
by the manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any
overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.

A FEW DEFINITIONS
Range:
displays the distance which can travelled with the remaining fuel
detected in the tank, basd on the average consumption over the last few
miles (kilometres).
This displayed value may vary signi
fi cantly following a change in
the vehicle speed or the relief of the route.
When the ran
ge falls below 20 miles (30 km), dashes are displayed.
After fi lling with at least 10 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If, whilst driving, dashes are displayed continuously in place of the digits,contact a CITROËN dealer. ,g,
