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.

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.


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 (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.

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.

Limit the causes of excessconsumption

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 fi rst 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption
settle down to a consistent average.

Improved comfort
SOUNDPROOFING
Your vehicle benefits from a suspension
which contributes to improving general
comfort.
These developments also contribute to
reducing noise disturbance.
IMPROVED COMFORT

TREATMENT OF THE BODYWORK
LEADING TO ACOUSTIC COMFORT

The underseal under the body, on the body
sills and on the wheel arches considerably
reduces noise and protects the body from
external attack. Your vehicle is treated by cataphoresis,
ensuring perfect protection against
corrosion. The anticorrosion warranty has a
duration of 6 years.

Ventilation
ADDITIONAL HEATING SYSTEMS

Supplementar
y heating

On the 2-3 seats version, this is located
under the seat on the driver's side with air
diffusion directed forwards.
REAR HEATING AND/OR AIR
CONDITIONING
If your vehicle is fitted with an
additional air conditioning unit,
located in the rear of the vehicle:
the distribution rail located in
the roof and the individual diffusion vents
provide a perfect diffusion of cold air.
The warm air diffused at the fl oor, from the
front air conditioning unit, is distributed at the
feet of the rear passengers of rows 2 and 3.
A warm air diffusion vent, located on the rear
left wheelarch, may complete the assembly
for the feet of the rear passengers of row 3.
Additional heating
This is passenger compartment heating,
additional to the standard equipment.
It can operate independently of the engine.
Additional heater or programmableadditional heating

This is an additional, programmable and
separate system which heats the Diesel
engine hot coolant loop to make starting
easier.
It improves the demisting and defrosting
performance and that of the heated seats, if
fitted to the vehicle.
The passenger compartment heating is
brought up to temperature more rapidly.
This system must be programmed to start up
before you enter the vehicle. On the 5-9 seats version, it is
located at the rear. Depending
on the model version, the air
diffusion is either direct from the
rear or comes from the rail located under
each of the two rows of seats.

Press this control to activate/
deactivate the heating. The LED is
on if the heating is activated. When
rapid demisting and defrosting is
required, switch off the control.

equipment, the side windows of
row 2 can be opened.
Squeeze the two controls then
slide the window.
While driving, the window must be closed or
secured in an intermediate position.


Step

the sliding side door is opened.
Courtesy lamps

If fitted on your vehicle, one or two courtesy
lamps are located above the rear and side
doors.
They can be activated by:


- tilting the courtesy lamp (to the left or to
the right),

- opening or closing the rear or side
doors.
This lighting switches off automatically, after
a few minutes, if the doors are left open.
Reading lamps

They are located above each row of seats.


Roof box

This is a storage compartment located in the
load space, above the cab roof. Its capacity
varies depending on the height of the van
roof.


Torch

Airbags

Deactivating the passenger airbag


Refer to the "MODE" section of
chapter 4, then on the "Passenger
airbag" menu, select OFF
. When OFF
is selected, the passenger airbag
will not be triggered in the event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
select ON
to re-activate the airbag and
thus ensure the safety of your passenger in
the event of an impact.


Lateral airbags and curtain airbags

If your vehicle is fitted with lateral airbags,
these are fitted to the front seat backs on
the door side.
The curtain airbags are fitted to the door
pillars and the upper part of the passenger
compartment, in the roof over the front
cab seats.
They inflate between the occupant and
the glass.
They are deployed independently of each
other depending on which side the collision
occurs.
The airbag warning lamp on the
instrument panel remains on while
the passenger airbag is deactivated.
To ensure the safety of your child, it is
essential to deactivate the passenger airbag
when you install a rear-facing child seat on
the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the
child would risk being killed or seriously
injured if the airbag were to inflate.
If your vehicle is not fitted with this
equipment: do not install a rear-facing child
seat.
Deactivation check
This is confirmed by lighting of
this warning lamp each time
the engine is started.
If your vehicle is fitted
with this screen, the
check is accompanied by
a message.


Operating check

Confirmed by this indicator lamp.
