FOR ECONOMICAL DRIVING, CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
Main recommendations for driving economically
Gear lever
Use the automatic
mode A
as much
as possible as this optimises gear
changes to suit the requirements.
The fuel consumption
of a vehicle varies greatly
:
- according to the driver's style of driving
(moderate, aggressive, fast, ...),
- according to the type of journeys
made (urban, main road, motorway, fl owing,
heavy traffi c, …) and the speed.
Hybrid mode selector
To optimise fuel consumption, use the
Auto
mode
of the selector whenever
possible (the mode is activated auto-
matically when starting) including for
urban journeys.
This mode optimises the use of the ener-
gy sources (internal combustion engine
and/or electric) contrary to other modes,
which are for use in particular cases.
Stay in the "eco" zone
displayed in the
energy consumption / generation indi-
cator: accelerate gently, drive at steady
speeds using the speed limiter or cruise
control as soon as possible.
Causes of high consumption and
checks
As with any vehicle, limit overloading,
wind resistance (windows open above
30 mph (50 km/h), roof rack, loaded or
not, …), the use of power consumers
(air conditioning, heated seats, heated
rear screen, …).
Observe the recommendations on
checks (regular check of tyre pres-
sures, correct tyre pressures, …) and
routine servicing.
Consumption history
See the impact of your style of driving
and the type of journey by reviewing
the history of your energy consumption.
Refer to the "Multifunction screens"
section.
Use the "charge"
zone: anticipate the
need to slow down by taking your foot
off the accelerator rather than braking.
The movement of the energy consump-
tion / generation indicator needle (into
the "charge" zone), shows the level of
energy recovery.

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 refi t your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendationson 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.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and ob-
serve the schedule of operations recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overfl ow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.

VERY COLD CLIMATE SCREEN
Removable protective screen which
prevents the accumulation of snow at
the radiator cooling fan.
Before fi tting or removing the screen,
ensure that the engine is off and the
cooling fan has stopped. It is recom-
mended that the screen be fi tted and
removed by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
FITTING ROOF BARS
Maximum authorised weight
on the roof rack, for a loading
height not exceeding 40 cm
(with the exception of bicycle
carriers): 65
kg.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt
the speed of the vehicle to the pro-
fi le of the road to avoid damaging the
roof bars and the fi xings on the roof.
Be sure to refer to national legislation
in order to comply with the regula-
tions for transporting objects that are
longer than the vehicle.
When fi tting transverse roof bars, use
the four quick-fi t fi xings provided for this
purpose:
)
lift the concealing fl aps,
)
open the fi xing covers on each bar
using the key,
)
put each fi xing in place and lock
them on the roof one by one,
)
ensure that roof bars are correctly
fi tted (by shaking them),
)
close the fi xing covers on each bar
using the key.
Fitting
)
Offer up the screen to the front of
the lower section of the front bum-
per (do not use the upper ventilation
grille position).
)
Press on the edges A
to engage its
fi xing clips.
)
Press on the middle at B
to com-
plete the engagement of the fi xing
clips.
