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 effi ciency 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.

GEARBOX


5-speed gearbox - reverse



To change gear easily, always press
the clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedal:


- ensure that the mat and its fi xings
on the fl oor are positioned correctly,

- never fi t 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.


Engaging 5 th
gear.

Push the gear lever fully to the right to
engage 5 th gear.
GEAR EFFICIENCY INDICATOR


This system allows fuel consumption
to be reduced by suggesting when to
change up.
With an electronic gearbox, the system
is only active in Manual mode.
Depending on the driving conditions
and the equipment of your vehicle,
the system may recommend skipping
one or more gears. You can follow this
indication without going through the
intermediate gears.
The gear engagement
recommendations should not be
considered to be compulsory. This
because the confi guration of the road,
the traffi c density and safety remain
determining factors when choosing
the best gear. Therefore, the driver
remains responsible for deciding
whether or not to follow the advice
given by the system.
This system cannot be deactivated.


Engaging reverse

To engage reverse gear, wait until the
vehicle is stationary then push the gear
lever to the right then back.
The lever should be moved slowly to
reduce the noise on engaging reverse
gear.

6-speed electronic gearbox



- automatic mode: gear selector in
position A
.

- manual mode: gear selector in
position M
.


For safety:
It is only possible to come out
of position N
if the brake pedal is
pressed.
The change from position A
(driving in
automatic mode) to position M
(driving
in manual mode) or vice versa can be
made at any time. The warning lamp A

goes off in the instrument panel.


Mode selection


Illumination of this symbol
indicates that the driver can
change up.

The system never recommends
engaging fi rst gear or reverse, or
changing down.
On vehicles with a manual gearbox,
the arrow may be accompanied by the
recommended gear.
The system adapts its gear change
recommendations according to the
driving conditions (slope, load, ...) and
demands from the driver (for power,
acceleration, braking, ...).

Moving off



- To start the engine, the gear
selector must be in position N
.

- Press fi rmly on the brake pedal.

- Operate the starter.

- When the engine is running, place
the gear selector on R
, A
or M
as
desired.

- Release the brake pedal and
accelerate.
If the gear selector is not in position N
,
and/or if the brake pedal is not
pressed, the engine will not start.
Repeat the above procedure.

Reverse gear

Engaging reverse gear

Move the gear selector to R
.

Only attempt to select reverse gear
when the vehicle is stationary.



Neutral

Changing to neutral

Move the gear selector to N
. If the
vehicle is moving, do not select this
position even momentarily.
Manual mode

Changing to manual mode

Move the gear selector to M
.

Automatic mode

Changing to automatic
mode

Move the gear selector to A
.
The gearbox then operates in
automatic mode, without any action on
your part.
It constantly selects the gear that is
best suited to the following conditions:


- driving style,

- road profi le,

- optimum fuel consumption.

STEERING WHEEL ADJUSTMENT

When the vehicle is stationary,
release the steering wheel adjustment
mechanism by pulling the lever.
Adjust the steering wheel for height
and reach, then lock the mechanism by
pushing the lever fully forwards.

Acceleration

For optimum acceleration (e.g. to
overtake another vehicle), simply
press the pedal beyond the point of
resistance at the end of its travel, by
pressing down fi rmly.


Vehicle stationary, with the
engine running
In the event of a prolonged stop with
the engine running, the gearbox
changes automatically to neutral N
.


Stopping the vehicle

Before stopping the engine, put the
gear selector in position N
.
In all cases, it is essential to apply
the parking brake. Check that the
parking brake warning lamp is on in the
instrument panel.

Before doing anything in the
engine compartment, check that
the gear selector is in neutral N
.


Changing gear


In situations of high engine speeds
(heavy acceleration), a change
up will not occur unless the driver
operates the electronic gearbox control
paddle. Pull on the " +
" control
paddle to change up.
Pull on the " -
" control
paddle to change
down.


- If the vehicle stops or reduces
speed (for example when
approaching a stop sign),
the gearbox changes down
automatically, to fi rst gear if
needed.

- It is not necessary to release the
accelerator completely during gear
changes.

- A gear change instruction is
accepted only if the engine speed
permits.

- For safety reasons, depending on
the engine speed, a change down
may be performed automatically.
