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   gearbox,   give   preference   to   automatic   mode   and  
a

void   pressing   the   accelerator   pedal   heavily   or   suddenly.
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  
c

onditioning.
Above
  30   mph   (50   km/h),   close   the   windows   and   leave   the   air   vents  
ope

n.
Remember
  to   make   use   of   equipment   that   can   help   keep   the   temperature
 i

n   the   passenger   compartment   down   (sunroof   and   window   blinds...).
Switch
  off   the   air   conditioning,   unless   it   has   automatic   regulation,   as  
s

oon   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   ambient   light  
l

evel   does   not   require   their   use.
Avoid
  running   the   engine   before   moving   off,   particularly   in   winter;   your  
v

ehicle   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  
c

onsumption   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.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather than   the   brake   pedal,   and   press   the   accelerator   progressively.   These  
p

ractices   contribute   towards   a   reduction   in   fuel   consumption   and   CO
2
emissions
 
and
 
also
 
help
 
reduce
 
the

Fatigue detection system
Depending on version, the "Driving time warning   system"   may   be   combined   with   the  
"

Fatigue   detection   system".
Using
  a   camera   placed   at   the   top   of   the  
w

indscreen,   the   system   assesses   the   driver's  
l

evel   of   vigilance   by   identifying   variations   in  
t

rajectory   compared   to   the   lane   markings.
This
  system   is   particularly   suited   to   fast   roads  
(

speed   higher   than   40   mph   (65   km/h)).Once
  the   system   considers   that   the   behaviour  o
f   the   vehicle   suggests   a   certain   level   of   fatigue  
o

r   inattention   by   the   driver,   it   triggers   the   first  
l

evel   of   alert.
The
  driver   is   then   alerted   by   the   message  
"Ta

k e c a r e !",
  accompanied   by   an   audible  
s

ignal.
After
  three   first   level   alerts,   the   system   triggers  
a

  new   alert   with   the   message   "Take a break! ",
accompanied
  by   a   more   pronounced   audible  
s

ignal. In
  certain   driving   conditions   (poor   road  
s

ur face   or   strong   winds),   the   system  
m

ay   give   alerts   independent   of   the  
d

river's   level   of   vigilance.
The   following   situations   may   inter fere  
w

ith   operation   of   the   system   or   prevent  
i

t   working:
-

oor   visibility   (inadequate   lighting  
o
