Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices
t hat allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently
an d change up without waiting. During
acceleration, change up early.
With an automatic 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 automatic gearbox,
this indicator appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles,
u se 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 reduce the
b
ackground 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 these are not automatically
managed.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps
when the ambient light level does not require
their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up
much faster while driving.
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.
Consider using equipment that can help
keep the temperature in the passenger
compartment down (sunroof blind and window
blinds, etc.).
Unless it has automatic regulation, switch off
the air conditioning as soon as the desired
temperature has been reached. As a
passenger, if you avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (film, music, video game,
etc.), you will contribute towards limiting the
consumption of electrical energy, and so of
fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before
leaving the vehicle.

Alarm
- Perimeter protection
The system manages the opening of the
vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to open
a door, the boot or the bonnet.
- Volumetric protection
(Except Cabrio versions)
The system manages any variation in the
volume of the passenger compartment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks
a
window or moves inside the vehicle.
When leaving an animal in the vehicle or
a
window open, deactivate the volumetric
protection. This system protects and provides a deterrent
against theft and break-ins.
It provides the following types of monitoring: Do not make any modifications to the alarm
system; this could cause malfunctions.

button A flashes once per second.
The perimeter protection is activated 5
seconds
after pressing the locking button on the remote
control.
The volumetric protection is activated
45
seconds after pressing the locking button on
the remote control. If an opening – door, boot, etc. – is
incorrectly closed, the vehicle is not
locked but the perimeter protection will be
activated after 45


seconds.
Deactivation
F Unlock the vehicle using the unlock button
on the remote control.
The alarm is deactivated: the indicator lamp in
button A goes off.

(Except Cabrio versions)
The system manages the deactivation status of
its components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery, central
control unit or the siren wiring is taken out of
service or damaged.

To take effect, this deactivation must
be carried out each time the ignition is
switched off.
Reactivating the volumetric
protection
F Unlock the vehicle using the unlocking button on the remote control.
F

L
ock the vehicle using the remote control.
The alarm activates again with the two
protections; the indicator lamp in button A
flashes once per second.
Triggering of the alarm
This is indicated by the sound of the siren
and the flashing of the direction indicators for
around thirty seconds.
After triggering, the protection is operational
again.
If the alarm is triggered ten times in
succession, on the eleventh occasion it
becomes inactive. Rapid flashing of the indicator lamp in
button A informs you that the alarm was
triggered during your absence. When the
ignition is switched on, this flashing stops
immediately.
To avoid triggering the alarm, when
washing your vehicle lock it using the key
in the driver's door lock.
Failure of the remote control

driver's door lock.

Malfunction
When the ignition is switched on, illumination of
the indicator lamp in button A for ten seconds
indicates a
fault in the siren.
Have it checked in the dealer network or by
a


qualified workshop.
Automatic activation
(Depending on country of sale.)
The alarm is activated automatically 2 minutes
