FAMILIARISATION
ECO-DRIVING
  Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 
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. 
  Remember to make use of equipment 
that can help keep the temperature 
in the passenger compartment down 
(sunroof and window blinds...).    
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 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.  
 
   
As a passenger, if you avoid 
connecting your multimedia devices 
(fi lm, 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.  
    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.

SERVICE INDICATOR
 
This programmes service intervals 
according to the use of the vehicle.     
More than 1 000 miles/km before the 
next service is due 
   
Example: 
 4 800 miles/km remain 
before the next service is due. When 
the ignition is switched on and for a 
few seconds, the screen shows: 
  A few seconds after the ignition is 
switched on, the oil level is displayed, 
then the total distance recorder 
resumes normal operation showing the 
total and trip distances.  
   
Less than 1 000 miles/km before the 
next service is due 
  Each time the ignition is switched on 
and for a few seconds, the spanner 
fl ashes and the number of miles/
kilometres remaining is displayed:   A few seconds after the ignition is 
switched on, the oil level is displayed, 
then the total distance recorder 
resumes normal operation and the 
spanner remains on. This indicates that 
a service should be carried out shortly.  
   
Service overdue 
  First of the two terms reached: the 
spanner also comes on if the two-year 
interval has elapsed.  
     
Operation 
  A few moments after the ignition 
has been switched on, the spanner 
indicating a service operation comes 
on; the display for the total distance 
recorder gives (in round fi gures) the 
distance remaining before the next 
service. 
  The points at which a service is due 
are calculated from the last indicator 
zero reset. 
  The point at which a service is due is 
determined by two parameters: 
   
 
-   the distance travelled, 
   
-   the time which has elapsed since 
the last service.  
  The distance remaining before the 
next service may be weighted by 
the time factor, depending on the 
type of driving.    With the engine running the 
spanner remains on until the 
service has been carried out.   Each time the ignition is 
switched on and for a few 
seconds, the spanner 
fl ashes and the excess 
distance is displayed.

Trip recorder zero 
reset button 
  After this operation, if you wish to 
disconnect the battery, lock the 
vehicle and wait for at least fi ve 
minutes, otherwise the zero re-set will 
not be registered.  
 
 
Zero re-set 
 
Your PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop carries out this operation 
after each service. 
  However, if you carry out the service 
yourself, the re-set procedure is as 
follows: 
   
 
-   switch off the ignition, 
   
-   press and hold the trip recorder 
reset button, 
   
-   switch on the ignition.  
  The display begins a countdown. 
  When the display shows  "=0" 
, release 
the button; the spanner disappears. 
   
Engine oil level indicator 
 
When the ignition is switched on, the 
engine oil level is indicated for a few 
seconds, after the service information.    
Oil level correct  
   
Low oil level 
  Flashing of  "OIL" 
, 
linked with the 
service warning lamp, 
accompanied by an 
audible signal and a message in the 
screen, indicates a low oil level which 
could damage the engine. 
  If the low oil level is confi rmed by a 
check using the dipstick, it is essential 
that the level is topped up.  
   
Oil level gauge fault 
  Flashing of  "OIL--"   
indicates a malfunction 
of the engine oil level 
indicator. Contact 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop. 
  The level read will only be correct 
if the vehicle is on level ground 
and the engine has been off for 
more than 30 minutes.     
Dipstick 
   
A 
 = maximum, never exceed 
this level as a surplus of oil 
may damage the engine. 
  Contact a PEUGEOT dealer 
or a qualifi ed workshop 
without delay. 
   
B 
 = minimum, top up the level 
via the oil fi ller cap, using the 
grade of oil suited to your 
engine.  
 
  With the lighting on, 
press the button to vary 
the brightness of the 
instruments and controls. 
When the lighting 
reaches the minimum (or 
maximum) setting, release 
the button then press it again to 
increase (or reduce) the brightness. 
  As soon as the lighting is of the 
required brightness, release the button.     With the ignition on, press 
the button until the zeros 
appear.

Stop & Start
   
Going into engine START mode 
  The  "ECO" 
 warning lamp goes 
off and the engine starts: 
   
 
-   with a manual gearbox 
, when you 
depress the clutch pedal, 
   
-   with the 6-speed electronic 
gearbox 
: 
   
 
● 
  gear selector in position  A 
 or 
  M 
, when you release the brake 
pedal, 
   
● 
  or gear selector in position  N 
 and 
the brake pedal released, when 
you move the gear selector to 
position  A 
 or  M 
, 
   
● 
  or when you engage reverse 
gear.  
 
    
Special cases: START invoked 
automatically 
  START is invoked automatically when: 
   
 
-   you open the driver's door, 
   
-   you unfasten the driver's seat belt, 
   
-   the speed of the vehicle exceeds 
15 mph (25 km/h) with a manual 
gearbox or 7 mph (11 km/h) with 
the 6-speed electronic gearbox, 
   
-   the parking brake is being applied, 
   
-   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 the  "ECO" 
 
warning lamp fl ashes for 
few seconds, then goes off. 
   
This operation is perfectly normal. 
 
  With a manual gearbox in STOP 
mode, if a gear is engaged without 
fully depressing the clutch pedal, a 
warning lamp comes on or a message 
is displayed asking you to depress the 
clutch pedal to restart the engine.  
 
 
 
Deactivation 
 
At any time, press the  "ECO 
OFF" 
 switch to deactivate the 
system. 
  This is confi rmed by the switch warning 
lamp coming on accompanied by a 
message in the screen. 
  If the system has been deactivated 
in STOP mode, the engine restarts 
immediately.
