ECO-DRIVING

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.



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.



Control the use of your electricalequipment


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 compartment down (sunroof 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.

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 (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.
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions.

SERVICE INDICATOR
For a few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the spanner symbolising the
service indicator comes on: the screen
informs you when the next service is due,
in accordance with the manufacturer's
servicing schedule indicated in the servicing
booklet. This information is determined in
relation to the distance travelled since the
previous service.

The rheostat is active when the lighting
is on. After a few seconds, the display returns to

This 2 nd warning lamp, coupled

deterioration of the oil has reached
another threshold. To avoid the risk
of damage, have the oil changed
without waiting for this level.

engine start: the system has
detected deterioration of the
engine oil. Have the oil changed
as soon as possible. For 3.0 litre HDi engines, the engine speed
is restricted to 3 000 rpm, then 1 500 rpm
until the oil change is done. Have the engine
oil changed to avoid any risk of damage.

Starting and stopping


Going into engine START mode


- The "S"
warning lamp goes
off and the engine restarts.
If following an automatic restart in START
mode, the driver takes no action on the
the vehicle during the next 3 minutes, the
system stops the engine definitively. The
engine can then only be restarted using
the key.
Special cases: START invoked
automatically
The START mode is invoked automatically
when:


- the vehicle's is free wheeling on a slope,

- the windscreen wiper is on fast wipe,

- the air conditioning is running,

- the engine has been stopped for around
3 minutes with Stop & Start,

- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the
engine is needed to assure control of a
system.


In this case, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by the "S"
warning
lamp, which flashes for a few
seconds, then goes off.

Good practice


With a manual gearbox in STOP mode, if a
gear is engaged without fully depressing the
clutch pedal, restarting may not take place.
A warning lamp or message is displayed
in the instrument panel asking you to fully
depress the clutch pedal to allow restarting.
With the engine stopped in STOP mode,
if the driver unfasten's their seat belt and
opens a front door, the engine can only be
restarted using the ignition key. There is an
audible signal, accompanied by flashing of
the "S"
warning lamp and, depending on
equipment, a message is displayed.


This operation is perfectly normal.

With the vehicle in gear, automatic engine
restarting is only allowed by fully depressing
the clutch pedal.

CRUISE CONTROL

"This is the speed at which the driver wishes to
travel".
This aid to driving in free-fl owing traffi c conditions
enables the vehicle to maintain a constant
speed programmed by the driver, except when a
considerable load is carried on a steep gradient.
In order to be programmed or activated,
the vehicle speed must be greater than
approximately 25 mph (40 km/h), with at least
4th gear engaged.

Function deactivated. If your vehicle is fitted with cruise control,
this is displayed on the instrument panel by
