Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday
practices that allow the motorist to optimise their
fuel consumption and CO
2emissions.
Optimise your use of the gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and
change up promptly. While accelerating, change
up early.
With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic
mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The gear efficiency indicator prompts you to
engage the most suitable gear: whenever this
indication is displayed on the instrument panel,
follow it straight away.
With an 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 gradually. These attitudes
help to save fuel, reduce CO
2 emissions and
decrease general traffic noise.
If the vehicle has the steering-mounted
"CRUISE" control, use cruise control at speeds
above 25 mph (40
km/h) when the traffic is
flowing well.
Use electrical equipment wisely
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment
is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows
and air vents before using the air conditioning.
At speeds above 31
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 automatically regulated, switch off the air
conditioning as soon as the desired temperature
has been reached.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting functions,
if they are not managed automatically.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and foglamps when
the visibility conditions do 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, avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (film, music, video game,
etc.) to help reduce consumption of electrical
energy, and hence fuel.
Disconnect all portable devices before leaving
the vehicle.
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the
heaviest items in the boot, as close as possible
to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
minimise wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer, etc.). Preferably, use a
roof box.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit
summer tyres.
Comply with servicing instructions
Check tyre pressures regularly, with the tyres
cold, referring to the label in the door aperture on
the 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.
Do not overlook the spare wheel and, where
applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil,
oil filter
, air filter, passenger compartment filter,
etc.) and observe the schedule of operations in
the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system
is faulty, your vehicle will emit pollution. Visit
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
as soon as possible to restore your vehicle’s
nitrogen oxide emissions to regulatory
compliance.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the third nozzle cut-out, to avoid overflow.
You will only see the fuel consumption of your
new vehicle settle down to a consistent average
after the first 1,900 miles (3,000 kilometres).

Ease of use and comfort
3Never drive with passengers seated at
the rear when the head restraints are
removed or not in the high position; the head
restraints must be in place and in the high
position.
For more information on the Seat belts,
refer to the corresponding section.
Interior fittings
Mats
Fitting
When fitting the mat for the first time, on the
driver's side use only the fasteners supplied in
the enclosed sachet.
The other mats are simply laid over the carpet.
Removing/refitting
► To remove it on the driver's side, move the
seat backwards and unclip the fasteners.
►
T
o refit it, position the mat and secure it by
pressing.
►
Check that the mat is secured correctly
.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:– Only use mats which are suitable for
the fasteners already present in the vehicle;
these fasteners must be used.
–
Never fit one mat on top of another
.
The use of mats not approved by PEUGEOT
may interfere with access to the pedals and
hinder the operation of the cruise control/
speed limiter.
The approved mats have two fasteners
located underneath the seat.
Overhead storage unit
This compartment, located above the sun visors,
can be used to store various objects.
12 V accessory socket(s)
► Plug in a 12 V accessory (with a maximum
rated power of 120 W) using a suitable adapter.
Observe the maximum power rating to
avoid damaging your accessory.
The connection of an electrical device not approved by PEUGEOT, such as a
USB charger, may adversely affect the
operation of vehicle electrical systems,
causing faults such as poor radio reception or
interference with displays in the screens.

Lighting and visibility
Daytime running lamps /
Sidelamps
The front lamps light up automatically when the
engine starts.
They provide the following functions:
– Daytime running lamps (lighting control stalk in
the "AUTO" position with adequate light level).
– Sidelamps (lighting control stalk in the " AUTO"
position with low light levels or "Sidelamps only”
or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").
The LEDs are brighter when operating as daytime running lamps.
Parking lamps
Side markers for the vehicle by illumination of
the sidelamps on the traffic side only.
► Depending on version, within one minute of
switching off the ignition, operate the lighting
control stalk up or down depending on the traffic
side (for example: when parking on the left;
The lighting goes off when you switch off the
ignition, but you can always switch it on again
using the lighting control stalk.
Travelling abroad
If using your vehicle in a country that
drives on the other side of the road, the
headlamps must be adjusted to avoid
dazzling on-coming drivers.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In good or rainy weather, by both day
and night, use of the front foglamps and
the rear foglamps are prohibited. In these
situations, the power of their beams may
dazzle other drivers. They should only be
used in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps and
dipped headlamps manually as the sunshine
sensor may detect sufficient light.
Switch off the front and rear foglamps when
they are no longer necessary.
Never look too closely at the luminous
beam of LED headlamps: risk of serious
eye injury.
Direction indicators
► Left or right: lower or raise the lighting control
stalk, beyond the point of resistance.
Three flashes
► Press briefly upwards or downwards, without
going beyond the point of resistance; the
direction indicators will flash 3 times.
Automatic headlamp illumination
When a low level of ambient light is detected
by a sunshine sensor, the number plate
lamps,
sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps
are switched on automatically, without any action
on the part of the driver. They can also come
on if rain is detected, at the same time as the
automatic rain sensitive wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient
level or after the windscreen wipers are switched
off, the lamps are switched off automatically.
► Turn the ring to the "AUTO" position. When
the function is activated, a message is also
displayed.
►
T
urn the ring to another position . An
onscreen message is displayed to confirm that
the function has been deactivated.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction of the
sunshine sensor, the lighting comes on
and this warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel, accompanied by an audible
signal and/or a message.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may
detect sufficient light. In this case, the
lighting will not come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on
the dashboard or at the top of the windscreen
behind the rear view mirror (depending on
equipment); the associated functions would
no longer be controlled.

Driving
6climatic conditions, it is advised to follow the
recommendations below:
–
In mild conditions, do not leave the engine
at idle to warm up but move off straight away
and drive at moderate speed.
–
Depending on version, if the air
conditioning is activated and when the
exterior temperature exceeds 35°C, the idle
engine speed can accelerate up to 1,300
rpm depending on the air conditioning
requirements.
–
In wintry conditions, when the ignition is
switched on, the duration of lighting of the
preheating indicator lamp is extended. W
ait
until it goes off before starting the engine.
–
In very severe wintry
conditions
(temperature below -23°C), to
ensure correct operation and durability of
the mechanical components of the vehicle,
engine and gearbox, leave the engine
running for 4 minutes before moving off.
Never leave the engine running in an
enclosed area without adequate ventilation:
internal combustion engines emit toxic
exhaust gases, such as carbon monoxide.
Danger of poisoning and death!
With petrol engines , after a cold start,
preheating the catalytic converter can
cause noticeable engine vibrations for
anything up to 2 minutes while stationary with
the engine running (accelerated idle speed).
For Diesel vehicles, when the
temperature is below zero,
starting will only occur once the preheating
warning lamp is off.
If this warning lamp comes on after pressing
the "START/STOP" button, press down on the
brake or clutch pedal until the warning lamp
goes off, without pressing the "START/STOP"
button again, until the engine starts and runs.
The presence of the “Keyless Entry and Starting” system remote control is
imperative in the recognition zone.
Never leave the vehicle with the engine
running and with the remote control on your
person.
If the remote control leaves the recognition
zone, a message is displayed.
Move the remote control into the zone in
order to be able to start the engine.
If one of the starting conditions is not
met, a message is displayed in the
instrument panel. In some circumstances, it is
necessary to turn the steering wheel while
pressing the "START/STOP" button to assist
unlocking of the steering column. A message
is displayed.
Switching off
► Immobilise the vehicle, with the engine at
idle.
► With a manual gearbox, ideally put the gear
lever into neutral.
►
With an automatic gearbox, ideally select
position
P
.
With the conventional key/With the
remote control key
► Turn the key all the way to position 1 (Stop)
and remove it from the ignition.
►
T
o lock the steering column, turn the steering
wheel until it locks.
To facilitate unlocking of the steering column, it is recommended that the
wheels be returned to the straight ahead
position before switching off the engine.
►
Check that the parking brake is correctly
applied, particularly on sloping ground.
Never switch off the ignition before the
complete immobilisation of the vehicle.
With the engine off, the braking and steering
assistance systems are also turned off: risk of
loss of control of the vehicle.
As a safety measure, never leave the vehicle without taking the remote control
with you, even for a short time.
Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key or the remote control, which would weigh
down on its blade in the ignition switch and
could cause a malfunction.

Driving
Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the
surroundings of the vehicle before and during
the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the
mirrors.
Radar
The operation of the radar as well as the
associated functions may be impaired through
the accumulation of dirt (mud, frost, etc.), in
certain difficult weather conditions (very heavy
rain, snow) or if the bumper is damaged.
If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop;
certain types of paint could interfere with the
operation of the radar.
Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions
may be impaired or not work if the windscreen
area in front of the camera is dirty, misty,
frosty, covered with snow, damaged or
masked by a sticker.
On versions with camera alone, this message
indicates to you that the camera is obstructed:
"Driving aids camera: visibility limited, see
user guide".
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun,
reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel,
alternating shade and light) can also impair
detection performance.
In the event of a windscreen replacement,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to recalibrate the camera;
otherwise, the operation of the associated
driving aids may be disrupted.
Other cameras
The images from the camera(s)
displayed on the touch screen or on the
instrument panel may be distorted by the
relief.
In the presence of areas in shade, or in
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate
lighting, the image may be darkened and with
lower contrast.
Obstacles may appear further away than they
actually are.
Sensors
The operation of the sensors as well as
the associated functions may be disturbed
by sound interference such as that emitted
by noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries,
pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of
snow or dead leaves on the road or in the
event of damaged bumpers and mirrors.
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors
may be dirty.
A front or rear impact to the vehicle can
upset the sensors’ settings, which is not
always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be distorted.
The sensors do not systematically detect
obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs)
or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).
Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind
spots may not be detected or may no longer
be detected during the manoeuvre.
Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
Maintenance
Clean the bumpers and door mirrors and
the field of vision of the cameras regularly.
When washing your vehicle at high pressure,
direct the spray from at least 30
cm away
from the sensors and cameras.
Mats
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may interfere with the operation of
the speed limiter or cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
► ensure that the mat is secured correctly,
► never fit one mat on top of another.
Units of speed
Ensure that the units of speed displayed
on the instrument panel (mph or km/h) are
those for the country you are driving in.
If this is not the case, when the vehicle is
stationary, set the display to the required
units of speed so that it complies with what is
authorised locally.
In case of doubt, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system displays the maximum authorised
speed in the instrument panel, according to
the speed limits in the country in which you are
driving, using:

6The driver must accelerate to move off again,
then reactivate cruise control.
Operating limits
Cruise control operates by day and night, in fog
or moderate rainfall.
Certain situations cannot be managed by the
system and require driver intervention.
Elements not detected by the system:
–
Pedestrians, some cyclists, animals.
–
Stationary vehicles (traffic jam, breakdown,
etc.).
– Vehicles crossing your lane.
– V ehicles driving in the opposite direction.
Situations in which the driver must pause the
cruise control system:
– Vehicles in a tight bend.
– When approaching a roundabout.
– When following a narrow vehicle.
Reactivate cruise control when conditions permit.
Situations in which the driver is prompted to
immediately resume control:
–
Excessively sharp deceleration by the vehicle
in front of you.
– When a vehicle cuts in sharply between your
vehicle and the one in front.
Pay particular attention:
– When motorcycles are present and
when there are vehicles staggered across the
traffic lane.
–
When entering a tunnel or crossing a
bridge.
If any of the following malfunctions
occurs, do not use the system:
–
Following an impact on the windscreen
close to the camera.
–
Brake lamps not working.
If the vehicle has undergone any of the
following modifications, do not use the
system:
–
Carrying long objects on roof bars or a roof
rack.
–
Towing.
–
Front end of the vehicle modified (for
example by adding long-range headlamps or
painting the front bumper).
Malfunction
In the event of a cruise control
malfunction, dashes are displayed instead
of the cruise control speed setting.
This warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and an
onscreen message, to indicate a system
malfunction.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The adaptive cruise control deactivates automatically if the use of a “space-
saver” type spare wheel is detected or in the
event of a malfunction of the lateral brake
lamps or trailer brake lamps (for approved
trailers).
Memorising speeds
This function, used only for the speed limiter
and programmable cruise control, lets you
