Familiarisation

Optimise the use of your gearbox


With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. During acceleration change up early.


With an automatic or electronic gearbox, give preference to automatic mode and avoid 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 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, par ticularly 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 the
consumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your por table devices before leaving the vehicle.

















































Eco-driving

Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.


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 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.



The gear shift indicator invites you to change up: as soon as theindication to change up is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it straight away.
With an electronic or automatic gearbox, this indicator appears only in manual mode.

Familiarisation

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 inthe door aperture, driver's side. Carry out this check in par ticular:


- 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 ser viced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) andobser ve the schedule of operations recommended by the manufacturer.


When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle toavoid any over flow.


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 toa consistent average.
