Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move of f 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.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking
rather than the brake pedal, and press the accel -
erator
progressively
.
These
practices
contribute
towards
a
reduction
in fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions and also helps
reduce
the
background
traffic
noise.
If
your
vehicle
has
cruise
control,
make
use
of
the
system
at speeds
above
25
mph
(40
km/h)
when
the
traffic
is
flowing well.
Control the use of your electrical equipment
Before moving of f, 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
(sun
-
roof
and window blinds...).
Switch
of
f
the
air
conditioning,
unless
it
has
automatic
regu
-
lation,
as soon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch
of
f
the
demisting
and
defrosting
controls,
if
not
au
-
tomatic.
Switch
off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch
of
f
the
headlamps
and
front
foglamps
when
the
level of
light does not require their use.
Avoid
running
the
engine
before
moving
of
f,
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
to
-
wards
limiting
the
consumption
of
electrical
energy
,
and
so
of
fuel.
Disconnect
your
portable
devices
before
leaving
the
ve
-
hicle.
ECO-DRIVING
The gear shift indicator invites you engage the most suit -
able gear: as soon as the indication is displayed in the in -
strument
panel, follow it straight away.
For
vehicles
fitted
with
an
electronic
or
automatic
gearbox,
this
indicator appears only in manual mode.
