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 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. 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.



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 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 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.

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.

ECO-DRIVING

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

FUEL TANK

Fuel tank capacity: approximately 55 litres.



LOW FUEL LEVEL

FILLING

When the fuel tank minimum level is reached this warning
lamp comes on on the instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and an alert message. When it fi rst comes on
there remains approximately 5 litres
of fuel in the tank.
Until suffi cient fuel is added, this warning lamp appears every time
the ignition is switched on, accompanied by an audible signal and a
message. When driving, this audible signal and display of the alert
message are repeated with increasing frequency as the fuel level drops
towards "0"
.
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer also to the "Running out of fuel
(Diesel)" section.
A label affi xed to the inside of the fl ap reminds you of the type of fuel to
be used depending on your engine.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres, in order to be registered by
the fuel gauge. To fi ll the tank in complete safety:


)
the engine must be switched off,


)
press the rear part of the fl ap, then raise it to open it,

)
turn the cap to the left,

)
remove the cap and hook it onto the clip located on the inside of
the fl ap,

)
fi ll the tank, but do not continue after the 3rd cut-off of the
pump
; this could cause malfunctions. Opening the fi ller cap may create a noise a caused by an inrush
of air. This vacuum is entirely normal, resulting from the sealing of
the fuel system.

CHECKS










QUALITY OF THE FUEL USED FOR PETROL
ENGINES

The petrol engines are perfectly compatible with E10 or E24 type petrol
biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 % ethanol), conforming to European
standards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol) are reserved exclusively
for vehicles marketed for the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex vehicles).
The quality of the ethanol must comply with European
standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed to run on fuels containing
up to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).
For Russia only, the use of RON 92 unleaded petrol is possible.














QUALITY OF THE FUEL USED FOR DIESEL
ENGINES

The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible with biofuels which
conform to current and future European standards (Diesel fuel which
complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which complies
with standard EN 14214) available at the pumps (containing up to
7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain Diesel engines; however, this
use is subject to strict application of the special servicing conditions.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure
or diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the
engine and fuel system).
When you have fi lled the tank:


)
put the cap back in place,

)
turn it to the right,

)
close the fl ap.


Freezing conditions

In these conditions, the fi ller fl ap may be jammed.
Opening the boot gives access to the fl ap, allowing it to be
released by hand.
