Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2emissions.
Eco-driving suited to your
HYbrid4 vehicle
Use gear selector position A , as thisoptimises gear changes to suit the
circumstances and the AUTOmode of theHYbrid4 mode selector. When moving off, accelerate normally up tothe desired speed (POWER
zone between 20and 40 %).
At steady speeds, drive gently with smallmovements of the accelerator pedal (ECO
or CHARGEzone), run in electric mode as oftenas possible when driving at low speed. Anticipate the need to slow down and use engine braking ( CHARGE
zone), so as to make use of free energy recovery while keeping light pressure on the accelerator pedal.
Control the use of your
electrical equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it byopening 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 canhelp keep the temperature in the passenger compartment down (sun roof and windowblinds...). Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic digital regulation, as soon as thedesired temperature is attained. Switch off the demisting and defrostingcontrols, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglampswhen the level of light does not require their use.
Avoid running the Diesel engine when stationary, 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, videogame...), you will contribute towards limitingthe consumption of electrical energy, and soof fuel.
Disconnect your por table devices beforeleaving the vehicle.
