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.

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.

Ventilation

REAR VENTILATION

If your vehicle is fitted with an additional air
conditioning unit, located in the rear of the
vehicle. The distribution duct located in the
roof and the 6 individual vents provide a
perfect air distribution.
The warm air diffused at the floor, from the
front heating and air conditioning unit, is
distributed at the feet of the rear passengers
of the 2nd row.
A warm air diffusion vent, located on the
specific unit, completes the installation for
the feet of the rear passengers of the 3rd
row.

Temperature adjustment

Control positioned:


- on the blue, produces cool air,

- on the red, produces heating.


Activation/Deactivation
Air flow

The fan speed for the air via the
vents, varies from 1 to the fastest 4.
To obtain the desired comfort
level, remember to adjust this
control.
To stop the fan, place the control in
position 0. This button, located on the
overhead storage unit, enables
you to activate or deactivate the
operation of the rear controls
from the driver's seat or the front passenger
seat.
The first press activates (green LED on).
A second press deactivates (LED off).

Airbags
SAFETY
4

Good practice

Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object...). This could hinder the operation of
the airbags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
All work on the airbag system is strictly
forbidden unless it is carried out by qualified
personnel at a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Lateral airbags
Only put recommended covers on the seats.
These will not hinder inflation of the lateral
airbags. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs. This could cause injury to the chest
or arms when the lateral airbag inflates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.

Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by its spokes or resting your hands on the
centre part of the wheel.
Do not allow passengers to place their feet
on the dashboard, they risk serious injury if
the airbag is deployed.
Smoke as little as possible as deployment
of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of
injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel
or hit it violently.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns
to the head, chest or arms when an airbag
is deployed cannot be ruled out. In fact, the
bag inflates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then deflates within the same
time discharging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.

Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This
could cause injury to the head when the
curtain airbag inflates.
Do not remove the grab handles installed
on the roof, they play a part in securing the
curtain airbags.
