Eco-driving is a range of everyday
practices that allow the motorist to
optimise their fuel consumption and
CO
2 emissions.
Eco-driving
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 efficiency indicator invites
you to 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 help to 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
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.
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.

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 resistance
(roof bars, roof rack, bicycle
carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in
preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks
after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow
tyres and refit 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.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil filter

, air filter, passenger
compartment filter...) and observe the
schedule of operations recommended
in the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the
SCR system is faulty your vehicle
becomes polluting; go to a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop without
delay to have the emissions of nitrogen
oxides brought back to the legal level. When refuelling, do not continue after
the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.

EMISSIONS CONTROLS
EOBD (European On Board
Diagnosis) is a diagnostics
system which complies with,
among others, the standards
on emissions limits of:
-

CO (carbon monoxide),
-


HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
-


NOx (nitrogen oxides), detected
by oxygen sensors placed
downstream of the catalytic
converters,
-


particles.
UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
This system
continuously monitors
the pressures of the four
tyres, as soon as the
vehicle is moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the
valve of each tyre (except the spare
wheel).
The system triggers an alert if a drop
in pressure is detected in one or more
tyres.
The tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which
does not replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver is warned of any
malfunction of this emissions
control system by the illumination
of this warning lamp in the instrument
panel.
If this warning lamp comes on, have it
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop. This system does not avoid the
need to check the tyre pressures
regularly (including the spare
wheel) and before a long journey
.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle
can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
Refer to chapter 9, "Identification
markings" section.
The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.

UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION WITH REINITIALISATION
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressures
in the four tyres, once the vehicle is
moving.
It compares the information given by
the four wheel speed sensors with
reference values, which must be
reinitialised every time the tyre
pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon
as it detects a drop in the inflation
pressure of one or more tyres.The under-inflation detection
system does not replace the
need for vigilance on the part of
the
driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
impairs road holding, extends braking
distances and causes premature
tyre wear, particularly under arduous
condition (high loading, high speed,
long journey).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption. The inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the
tyre pressure label.
For more information on the
identification markings, refer to the
corresponding section.
Tyre pressures should be checked
when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of
less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate
speeds).
Otherwise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to
the pressures shown on the label.

The information appears
in the instrument panel
in the form of an arrow. It
may be accompanied by a
recommended gear.
The system adapts its gear
change recommendation
according to the driving conditions
(slope, load,
...) and the demands
of the driver (power, acceleration,
braking,

...).
The system never suggests:
-

engaging first gear
,
-

engaging reverse gear
.
With an electronic gearbox, the system
is only active in manual mode.
GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
Depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system
may advise you to skip one (or more)
gear(s). You can follow this instruction
without engaging the intermediate
gears.
The gear engagement
recommendations must not be
considered compulsory. This is
because the configuration of the road,
the traffic density and safety remain
determining factors when choosing
the best gear. Therefore, the driver
remains responsible for deciding
whether or not to follow the indications
given.
This function cannot be deactivated.
System which reduces fuel
consumption by recommending the
most appropriate gear.

Acceleration
For optimum acceleration (e.g. to
overtake another vehicle), simply
press the pedal beyond the point of
resistance at the end of its travel, by
pressing down firmly.
Vehicle stationary, with the
engine running
In the event of a prolonged stop with
the engine running, the gearbox
changes automatically to neutral N.
Stopping the vehicle
Before stopping the engine, put the
gear selector in position N.
In all cases, it is essential to apply
the parking brake. Check that the
parking brake warning lamp is on in the
instrument panel.Before doing anything in the
engine compartment, check that
the gear selector is in neutral N.
Changing gear
In situations of high engine speeds
(heavy acceleration), a change
up will not occur unless the driver
operates the electronic gearbox control
paddle. Pull on the "+" control
paddle to change up.
Pull on the "-" control
paddle to change
down.
-

If the vehicle stops or reduces
speed (for example when
approaching a stop sign),
the gearbox changes down
automatically

, to first gear if
needed.
-

It is not necessary to release the
accelerator completely during gear
changes.
-


A
gear change instruction is
accepted only if the engine speed
permits.
-

For safety reasons, depending on
the engine speed, a change down
may be performed automatically

.

STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the
engine temporarily on standby - ST OP
mode - during stops in the traffic (red
lights, traffic jams, or other...).
The engine restarts
automatically
- START mode - as soon
as you want to move off.
The restart takes place instantly,
quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise
level when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO" warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel and the engine goes
into standby:
-

with a manual gearbox
, at speeds
below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you
put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal,
-

with a 6-speed electronic
gearbox

, at speeds below 5 mph
(8 km/h), when you press the brake
pedal or put the gear lever into
position N. If your vehicle is fitted with the system,
a time counter calculates the sum of
the periods in STOP mode during a
journey. It rests itself to zero every time
the ignition is switched on with the key.
With a 6-speed electronic
gearbox, for your comfort during
parking manoeuvres, STOP mode
is not available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as
braking, power steering, for example.
Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off
the ignition with the key. Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP mode is not invoked when:
-

the vehicle is on a steep slope
(rising or fallin

g),
-
the driver's door is open,
-

the driver's seat belt is not
fastened,
-

the vehicle has not exceeded
6

mph (10 km/h) since the last
engine start using the key,
-
the engine is needed to maintain
a comfortable temperature in the
passenger compartment,
-

demisting is on,
-

some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature,
braking assistance, ambient
temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a
system.
In this case, the

"ECO"
warning lamp flashes for a
few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
