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 fitted 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 traffic 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 of
f 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
(film,
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
traffic
is
flowing
well.

ALARM*
System which protects and provides a deterrent against theft and break-
ins. It provides the following types of monitoring:
- exterior perimeter
The system checks for opening of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to open a door, the boot, the
bonnet...
- interior volumetric
The system checks for any variation in the volume in the passenger compa\
rtment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a window, enters the passenger
compartment or moves inside the vehicle.
- tilt
The system checks for any change in the attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle is lifted, moved or knocked.For all work on the alarm system, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified
workshop.

ELECTRIC WINDOWS
Fitted with a safety anti-pinch system.
A.
Left-hand electric window
.
B.
Right-hand electric window
.
ONE-TOUCH ELECTRIC WINdOWS
There are two options:
-
manual mode
F
Press or pull the switch gently
. The window stops when the
switch is released.
-
automatic mode
F
Press or pull the switch firmly.
The
window opens or closes fully
when the switch is released.
F
Pressing the switch again stops the movement of the window
.The electric window switches remain operational for approximately
45 seconds after the ignition is switched off or until the vehicle is
locked after a door is opened.
If the passenger's window cannot be operated from the driver's
door control panel, carry out the operation from the control panel
of the passenger door.
After approximately ten consecutive complete opening/closing
movements of the window, a protection function is activated which
only authorises closing of the windows, so as to prevent damage
to the electric window motor.
Once the window is closed, the switches will become operational
again after approximately 40 minutes.
Safety anti-pinch
When the window rises and meets an obstacle, it stops and partially
lowers again.
If the window cannot be closed (for example, in the presence of
ice), immediately after the movement is reversed:
F
press and hold the switch until the window opens fully
,
F
then pull the switch immediately and hold it until the window
closes,
F
continue to hold the switch for approximately one second after
the window has closed.
The safety anti-pinch function is not operational during these
operations.
45
RCZ_en_Chap02_ouvertures_ed01-2015
Reinitialisation
If a window does not rise automatically, after reconnecting the battery
for example, its operation must be reinitialised:
F
pull the switch until the window stops,
F
release the switch and pull it again until the window closes fully
,
F
continue to hold the switch for approximately one second after the
window has closed,
F
press the switch to lower the window automatically to the low
position,
F
when the window has reached the low position, press the switch
again for approximately one second.
The safety anti-pinch function is not operational during these
operations. Always remove the key from the ignition when leaving the vehicle,
even for a short time.
If an obstacle is encountered during operation of the electric
windows, you must reverse the movement of the window
. To do
this, press the switch concerned.
When the driver operates the switch for the passenger's electric
window, they must ensure that no one is preventing correct
closing of the windows.
The driver must ensure that the passengers use the electric
windows correctly.
Be aware of children when operating the windows.
