ECO-DRIVING
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emis-
sions.

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 instruc-
tions.

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 ve-
hicles, use engine braking rather than
the brake pedal, and press the accel-
erator 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 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 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 to-
wards limiting the consumption of elec-
trical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices be-
fore leaving the vehicle.

SAFETY
BRAKING ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS
Group of supplementary systems which
help you to obtain optimum braking in
complete safety in emergency situations:


- anti-lock braking system (ABS),

- electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD).
When braking in an emergency,
press very fi rmly without releasing
the pressure. The two warning lamps comes
on at the same time and the two
warnings are displayed alter-
nately in the instrument panel
screen.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to
the manufacturer's recommenda-
tions.



Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on, accompa-
nied by the indication on the instrument
panel screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the anti-lock braking system which could
result in a loss of control of the vehicle
when braking.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop. If these two warning lamps come on,
linked with the warnings on the instrument
panel screen, they indicate a malfunction
of the electronic brake force distribution
which could result in a loss of control of
the vehicle on braking.

You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.

Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which improve the sta-
bility and manoeuvrability of your vehicle
when braking, in particular on poor or
slippery surfaces. The warning lamp comes on for
a few seconds when the ignition
is switched on (ON position). If it
does not switch off or does not
come on, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
When the vehicle is stationary

When the vehicle is moving
If this warning lamp comes on
continuously it indicates a mal-
function of the anti-lock braking
system which could result in a
loss of control of the vehicle on braking.

You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.

Activation
The anti-lock braking system is active if
the vehicle speed is higher than 6 mph
(10 km/h). It is deactivated when the ve-
hicle speed falls below 3 mph (5 km/h).
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when there
is a risk of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.

DRIVING

Stopping - Starting on a slope


Do not use the accelerator pedal to
immobilise the vehicle on a slope,
apply the parking brake instead.

When starting on a slope, accelerate
gradually while releasing the parking
brake.


Switching to sequential mode

Once you have moved off, you can
switch to sequential mode by selecting
position +/-
.

"D"
disappears and the gears engaged
appear in succession in the instrument
panel screen.
The gear change requests are only car-
ried out if the engine speed permits it.
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal
gently to engage the gear.

Switching to automated mode


Automated mode
After using the sequential mode, you
can return to the automated mode by
selecting position D
.

"D"
appears in the instrument panel
screen.
The gearbox then operates in auto-active
mode, without any action on the part of
the driver.
It continuously selects the gear most
suited to the conditions of:


- driving style,

- road characteristics,

- vehicle load.
To optimise driving comfort and obtain
the most suitable gear, avoid sharp vari-
ations in the pressure on the accelerator
pedal.

Auto sequential mode
In the automated mode, you can take
over control temporarily at any time
using the steering mounted controls.
The use of these controls permits manual
selection of the gears in situations which
require a faster changedown than that
offered in automated mode (arrival at a
roundabout, exit from a car park with a
steep gradient, overtaking...).
Stopping the vehicle

Before switching off the engine, you can:


- move to position N
to leave the
gearbox in neutral.

- leave a gear engaged, such as fi rst
or reverse.
In both cases, you must apply the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle.


Operating anomaly

With the ignition on, if the message "Slow down"
or "Maintenance required"
ap-
pears in the multifunction screen, this in-
dicates a gearbox malfunction.
When a message is displayed, carry
out the following operations:


- slow down and stop your vehicle in
a safe place,

- place the lever in position N
and let
the engine run,

- open the bonnet to allow the engine
to cool.
If the message disappears for a long
period, you can set off again.
If the message remains displayed or ap-
pears frequently, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop without
delay.
Press the brake pedal fi rmly
while starting the engine.

Start the engine. "N"
appears in the in-
strument panel screen.
Select fi rst gear (position D
or +/-
) or
reverse (position R
).
Release the parking brake.
Release the brake pedal then accelerate.

"D"
or "1"
or "R"
appear in the instru-
ment panel screen. The gearbox engages the gear re-
quested if the engine speed permits it.
The gear engaged appears.
To return to the automated mode, press
the back of the "+/OFF"
control for ap-
proximately 2 seconds.
At low speeds, when approaching a
stop or traffi c lights for example, the
gearbox changes down to fi rst gear au-
tomatically.

DRIVING

Moving off

Select position P
or N
.

Press the brake pedal fi rmly
while starting the engine.

Start the engine.

"P"
or "N"
appears in the instrument
panel screen.
Select fi rst gear ( D
or +/-
) or reverse ( R
).
Release the parking brake.
Release the brake pedal then accelerate.

"D"
or "1"
or "R"
appears in the instru-
ment panel screen.


Manual mode


Using the gear lever
Move the gear lever backwards, then to
the left to select position +/-
.
Push forwards ( +
) to change up.
Push backwards ( -
) to change down.
Using the steering mounted controls
Press behind the "+"
steering mounted
control paddle to change up.
Press behind the "-"
steering mounted
control paddle to change down.
The gear change requests are only car-
ried out if the engine speed permits it.
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal
gently to engage the gear.
At low speeds, when approaching a
stop or traffi c lights for example, the
gearbox changes down to fi rst gear au-
tomatically.

DRIVING

Operating fault

Reverse gear
Flashing of the indicator R
in the instru-
ment panel screen, accompanied by an
audible signal, indicates a malfunction
on engaging the gear:
Press the brake pedal, position the gear
lever in position N
and engage reverse
gear again.

With the ignition on, if this warning light
comes on, accompanied by vibration
in the pedals and the message "Main-
tenance required"
on the instrument
panel display, this indicates a gearbox
malfunction.
If the message is displayed, carry out
the following operations:


- slow down and stop your vehicle in
a safe place,

- place the lever in position P
or N
,
apply the parking brake and let the
engine run,

- open the bonnet to allow the engine
to cool.
If the message disappears for a long
period, you can set off again.
If the message remains displayed or ap-
pears frequently, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop without
delay.

Overheating of the engine may re-
sult in unwanted declutching of the
gearbox.
