Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday
practices that allow the motorist to optimise their
energy consumption (fuel and/or electricity) and
CO
2 emissions.
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.
With a 4-wheel drive vehicle, favour 2H
transmission (standard) mode over 4H mode.
With a manual gearbox, the gear shift indicator
prompts you to engage the most suitable gear:
whenever this indication is displayed on the
instrument panel, follow it straight away.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use
engine braking rather than the brake pedal and
press the accelerator gradually. These practices
help to save on energy consumption, 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 traffic is flowing
smoothly.
Control the use of 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.
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.
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 (other than in severe wintry
conditions: temperature below -23°C); 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 energy.
Disconnect all portable devices before leaving
the vehicle.
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle.
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 the 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 forget 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 an HDi Diesel engine, if the particle filter
is faulty, your vehicle will emit pollution. Visit
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
as soon as possible to restore your vehicle's
particulate emissions to legal levels.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the third cut-out of the nozzle, 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).

Instruments
Total distance recorder
The total distance recorder measures the total
distance travelled by the vehicle since its initial
registration.
With the ignition on, the total distance is
displayed at all times. It remains displayed for
30 seconds after switching off the ignition. It is
displayed when the driver's door is opened, and
when the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
When travelling abroad, you may have to
change the distance units (km or miles):
the road speed must be displayed in the local
country’s official unit (km/h or mph).
The unit is changed via the screen
configuration menu, with the vehicle
stationary.

Ease of use and comfort
Air conditioning does not operate when the air flow is disabled.
To obtain cool air more quickly, enable interior
air recirculation for a brief period. Then return
to the intake of exterior air.
Switching off the air conditioning may result in
some discomfort (humidity or misting).
Maximum air conditioning
The system automatically adjusts the
temperature setting to the lowest possible, the
air distribution towards the central and side air
vents, the air flow to maximum and activates
recirculation of interior air.
► Press button 9 to activate/deactivate the
function (confirmed by the indicator lamp coming
on/switching off).
Once the function is deactivated, the system
returns to the previous settings.

of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and
deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high
after the vehicle has stood for a long
time in the sunshine, air the passenger
compartment for a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
Condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly
normal.
Servicing the ventilation and air
conditioning system
►
Ensure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly
.
We recommend using a composite passenger
compartment filter. Thanks to its special active
additive, this type of filter helps to purify the
air breathed by the occupants and keep the
passenger compartment clean (by reducing
allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).

Recommendations
On dry, tarmac or high-speed roads,
mainly use the 2H mode.
In 4L mode, avoid driving at a speed above
25 mph (40 km/h) and stay in a straight line.
Driving in 4H or 4L mode:
– on dry or tarmac road can cause oil
leakage, and seizure or malfunctions of the
transmission - risk of accident or serious
damage!
– on hard roads increases tyre wear and fuel
consumption.
Do not turn the selector suddenly from the 2L
position to 4H or 4L - risk of loss of control of
the vehicle!
Never change from 2H to 4H mode when the
wheels are spinning or skidding.
Mode suitable for normal driving on dry roads
with hard surface; provides economical, quiet
driving and reduces tyre wear.
4H mode: 4-wheel drive at high speed
Mode to be used only for driving on tracks where
the wheels may slip (off-road or on icy, snowy
roads, for example); provides stronger grip than
the 2-wheel drive transmission
mode (2H mode).
4L mode: 4-wheel drive at low speed
Mode to be used for maximum power and
traction; allows you to climb or descend steep
off-road slopes and benefits from maximum
traction (in sand, mud or in a thick layer of snow,
for example).
