18ECO-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 (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.

ALARM
 
If fitted on your vehicle, this provides two 
types of protection: 
   
 
-   exterior protection: it sounds if a front/
rear door or the bonnet is opened. 
   
-   interior protection: it sounds if the volume 
inside the passenger compartment 
changes (breaking of a window or a 
movement inside the vehicle).  
 
 
Disarming 
 
 
 
-   Unlock the vehicle with the remote 
control or switch on the ignition, the red 
LED goes off.  
 
 
 
Good practice 
 
Do not make any modifications to the 
electronic immobiliser system. 
  Operating the remote control, even when it 
is in your pocket, may result in involuntary 
unlocking of the doors. 
  The simultaneous use of other high 
frequency equipment (mobile telephones, 
domestic alarms…), may interfere with the 
operation of the remote control temporarily. 
  The remote control does not operate while 
the key is in the ignition, even if the ignition 
is off. 
  When leaving the vehicle, 
check that the lamps are 
off and nothing of value is 
visible. 
  As a safety precaution (with 
children on board), remove 
the key from the ignition 
when leaving the vehicle, 
even for a short time.  
 
 
Locking the vehicle with complete 
alarm  
   
Setting the alarm 
 
 
 
-   Switch off the ignition and get out of the 
vehicle. 
   
-   Set the alarm within five minutes of 
getting out of the vehicle, by locking or 
deadlocking using the remote control.  
  The red LED, located on the centre 
console, flashes once per second.  
 
 
 
Locking the vehicle with exterior 
protection only 
  If, while you are away from the vehicle, you 
wish to leave a window partially open or a 
pet inside the vehicle, you should choose 
exterior protection only. 
   
 
-   Switch off the ignition. 
   
-   Get out of the vehicle. 
   
-   Within the next five minutes, set the 
alarm by locking or deadlocking using 
the remote control (the red LED flashes 
once a second).  
     
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle: 
 
   
 
-   have the keys memorised by a 
PEUGEOT dealer to ensure that the 
keys in your possession are the only 
ones which can start the vehicle.     
-   In the next ten seconds, press 
this button, located on the 
centre console, until the red 
LED is on continuously.

Gearboxes and steering wheel  
 
  To change gear easily, always depress the 
clutch pedal fully. 
  To prevent the mat from becoming caught 
under the pedal: 
   
 
-   ensure that the mat is positioned 
correctly, 
   
-   never fit one mat on top of another.  
  When driving, avoid leaving your hand on 
the gear knob as the force exerted, even if 
slight, may wear the internal components of 
the gearbox over time.  
 
 
GEARBOXES AND STEERING WHEEL

 gear.  
GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR 
 
 
In order to drive as fuel efficiently 
as possible with a manual 
gearbox, this indicator lamp 
indicates to the driver when to 
change up. 
  The driver remains responsible for deciding 
whether or not to follow this indication, since 
the indicator lamp comes on without taking 
into account the configuration of the road, 
the amount of traffic and safety factors. 
  The system cannot be deactivated. 
   
When reverse gear is engaged 
and when changing down whilst 
decelerating, the function is not active.  
 
 
 
Engaging reverse gear 
 
In the 6-speed configuration, raise the collar 
under the gear knob to engage reverse gear. 
  Never engage reverse gear before the 
vehicle is completely stationary. 
  The lever should be moved slowly to reduce 
the noise on engaging reverse gear.

Manual mode 
 
Manual sequential gear changing. 
   
 
-   Select gear lever position  M 
, 
   
-   push the gear lever towards the + sign 
to change up, from 1 through to 6, 
   
-   conversely, push the gear lever towards 
the - sign to change down.  
  You can change from position  D  
(automatic mode) to position  M  
(manual mode) at any time. 
  In manual mode, it is only possible to 
change from one gear to another if the 
vehicle speed and engine speed permit. 
If they do not, the vehicle will operate 
temporarily in automatic mode. 
  When the vehicle is stationary or moving 
very slowly, the gearbox automatically 
selects first gear.  
 
 
Good practice 
 
Never select position  N 
 when the vehicle is 
moving. 
  Never select positions  P 
 or  R 
 unless the 
vehicle is stationary. 
  Never change between positions to optimise 
braking on a slippery surface. 
  There is a risk of damage to the gearbox: 
   
 
-   if you press the accelerator and brake 
pedals at the same time, 
   
-   if you force the gear lever from position  P 
 
to another position in the event of a battery 
failure.  
  When the engine is at idle, brakes not 
applied, if position  R 
,  D 
 or  M 
 is selected the 
vehicle moves even without the accelerator 
being pressed. 
  For this reason,  do not leave children 
unsupervised inside the vehicle, with the 
engine running 
.  
 
 
Operating fault 
 
Any operating fault is indicated by an 
audible signal, accompanied by the 
message  "Automatic gear fault" 
 in the 
screen. 
  In this situation the gearbox operates in 
downgrade mode (locked in 3rd gear). You 
may feel a substantial knock when changing 
from  P 
 to  R 
 and from  N 
 to  R 
 (this will not 
cause any damage to the gearbox). 
  Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), keeping 
within the limit of local speed restrictions. 
  Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop as soon as possible.

Driver or passenger side comfort value 
  The value indicated on the display 
corresponds to a level of comfort and 
not a temperature in degrees Celsius or 
Fahrenheit.    Automatic operation 
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, 
located on the windscreen behind the 
mirror, it is used for regulation of the air 
conditioning.  
     
AUTO comfort programme 
  This is the normal air conditioning system 
operating mode. 
  Press this button, the  AUTO 
 symbol is 
displayed. 
  Depending on the comfort value selected, 
the system controls the distribution, 
the fl ow and the intake of air to guarantee comfort 
and a suffi cient circulation of air in the passenger 
compartment. No further action on your part is required. 
  When the engine is cold, to prevent an 
excessive diffusion of cold air, the ventilation 
will reach its optimum level gradually. 
  For your comfort, the settings are stored 
when the ignition is switched off and are 
reinstated the next time the vehicle is 
started, if the temperature in the passenger 
compartment has not changed significantly; 
otherwise, operation resumes in automatic 
mode.    Turn this control to the left or to 
the right to decrease or increase 
the value. A setting around the 
value 21 provides optimum 
comfort. However, depending on your 
requirements, a setting between 18 and 
24 is usual.

Parking sensors 
  The audible and/or visual rear parking 
sensor system consists of four proximity 
sensors, installed in the rear bumper. The 
sensors detect any obstacle which enters 
the field: person, vehicle, tree, fence, behind 
the vehicle during the manoeuvre. 
  Certain objects detected at the beginning of 
the manoeuvre will no longer be detected 
at the end of the manoeuvre due to the 
blind spots between and below the sensors. 
Examples: stake, roadworks cone or 
pavement post. 
Engage reverse gear 
  An audible signal confirms the activation of 
the system by engaging reverse gear. 
  The proximity information is indicated by an 
audible signal which becomes more rapid as 
the vehicle approaches the obstacle. When 
the distance between the rear of the vehicle 
and the obstacle is less than approximately 
thirty centimetres, the audible signal 
becomes continuous. 
   
Activation / Deactivation
 
REAR PARKING SENSORS
 
 
Display in the screen  
   You can activate or deactivate the 
system by pressing this button. 
   
The activation or deactivation of 
the system is stored when the 
vehicle stops.  
 
 
Malfunction
 
In the event of a malfunction, when reverse 
gear is engaged the LED in the button 
comes on, accompanied by an audible 
signal and a message in the screen. Contact 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.  
 
 
Good practice
 
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the 
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or 
snow. 
  The system will be deactivated automatically 
if a trailer is being towed or if a bicycle 
carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with a 
towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by 
PEUGEOT). 
  The parking assistance cannot, in any 
circumstances, take the place of the 
vigilance and responsibility of the driver.  
Stop the assistance
 
Change to neutral.
