Eco-driving
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently, change up without waitingand 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. Thesepractices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO2emissions and also helps reduce the background traffic noise.


If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speedsabove 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.



Control the use of your electrical
equipment


Before moving off, if the passenger compar tment 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 ventsopen.
Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the temperature in the passenger compar tment down (sunroof and windowblinds...).
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 lightdoes 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 theconsumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your por table devices before leaving the vehicle.

Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2emissions.
