ECO-DRIVING
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 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.
The gear shift indicator invites you engage the most suitable
gear: as soon as the indication is displayed in the instru-
ment panel, follow it straight away.
For vehicles fi tted with an electronic or automatic gearbox,
this indicator appears only in manual mode.
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 traffi c noise. 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 to-
wards limiting the consumption of electrical energy, and so
of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.
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 be-
fore 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 off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regu-
lation, as soon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not au-
tomatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.

207CC_EN_CHAP00B_PRISE EN MAIN_ED01-2014
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 resis-
tance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a
roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use. Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil fi lter,
air fi lter, passenger compartment fi lter...) and observe the
schedule of operations recommended in the warranty and
maintenance record.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the
nozzle to avoid any overfl ow.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refi t your summer
tyres.
Observe the recommendations on 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.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or
caravan.
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 con-
sumption settle down to a consistent average.

INDICATOR AND WARNING LAMPS
Visual indicators informing the driver that a system is in operation (op\
eration or
deactivation indicator lamps) or of the occurrence of a fault (warning\
lamp).
When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds when the vehicle's ignit\
ion is switched
on.
When the engine is started, these same warning lamps should go off.
If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the information on the warning lamp concerned.
The warning lamps may come on
continuously (fi xed) or fl ash.
Certain warning lamps may come
on in one of two different modes.
Only by relating the type of illumi-
nation to the operating status of
the vehicle can it be ascertained
whether the situation is normal or
whether a fault has occurred.
Associated warnings
The illumination of certain warning lamps may be accompanied by an audible s ignal
and a message in the multifunction screen.
