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 instrument 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 accelerator progressively. These
practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions and also helps reduce the background traffi c noise.
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 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.
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.

SAFETY
RCZ_EN_CHAP05_SECURITE_ED02-2013
BRAKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Group of supplementary systems which help you to obtain optimum
braking in complete safety in emergency situations:
- anti-lock braking system (ABS),
- electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),
- emergency braking assistance (EBA).
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM AND
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBUTION
Linked systems which improve the stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle when braking, in particular on poor or slippery surfaces.
Activation
The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibration of
the brake pedal. When braking in an emergency, press very fi rmly without releasing
the pressure.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the screen, it indicates a malfunction
of the anti-lock braking system which could result in loss of
control of the vehicle when braking. If this warning lamp comes on, together with the
STOP and
ABS warning lamps, accompanied by an audible signal and
a message in the screen, it indicates a malfunction of the
electronic brake force distribution which could result in loss of contro\
l of
the vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In either case, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
When replacing wheels (tyres and rims), ensure that they conform
to the manufacturer's recommendations.
When braking in an emergency, press fi rmly without releasing the
pressure.
EMERGENCY BRAKING ASSISTANCE
System which, in an emergency, enables you to obtain the optimum
braking pressure more quickly, thus reducing the stopping distance.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
increase in braking effi ciency.

BRAKE PADS BRAKE DISC WEAR
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the warranty and maintenance record for the details
of the level checking interval for this component.
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the warranty and maintenance record for details of
the level checking interval for this component.
Brake wear depends on the style of driving, particularly in
the case of vehicles used in town, over short distances.
It may be necessary to have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the brake fl uid level
indicates that the brake pads are worn. For information on checking brake disc wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Only use products recommended by PEUGEOT or products of
equivalent quality and specifi cation.
In order to optimise the operation of units as important as those
in the braking system, PEUGEOT selects and offers very specifi c
products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or in wintry conditions, ice
can form on the brake discs and pads: braking effi ciency may
be reduced. Make light brake applications to dry and defrost the
brakes.
PARKING BRAKE
If excessive travel or a loss of effectiveness of this system
is noticed, the parking brake must be checked, even
between two services.
Checking this system must be done by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

on condition that the GVW of the towing vehicle is reduced by the same \
amount; warning: towing with a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an\
adverse effect on its road holding.
