Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday
practices that allow the motorist to optimise
the vehicle's 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. Do not depress 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.
Favour the use of the "Eco" driving mode.
When the traffic is flowing smoothly, select the
cruise control.
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.
Adapt your use of the headlamps and/or
foglamps to the level of visibility, in accordance
with current legislation in the country in which
you are driving.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter (other than in severe wintry
conditions: temperature below -23°C). The
vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (e.g.
film, music, video
game) to help reduce the 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 (e.g.
roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer). 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 left-hand 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 (e.g.
engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment
filter, etc.). Observe the schedule of operations in
the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system
has a fault, 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 legal levels.
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 particle
emissions to legal levels.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the third cut-out of the nozzle, to avoid overflow. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Never drive with the tailgate down.
Ensure that there are no people or
obstacles present (on the ground and higher
up) when unloading.
Never place your hands near the bracket
when handling the tailgate, there is a risk of
trapping your fingers.
The loading bay tailgate is heavy, open it
carefully.
Observe the payload indicated on the
manufacturer's label present on the vehicle.
Regularly check that the suspensions are in
good condition and that the tyres are inflated
to the recommended pressure.
Spread the load evenly in the loading bay.
Opening to 90°
► Depending on version, unlock the tailgate
with the dedicated key .
►
Pull the opening handle then lower the
tailgate, supporting it until it is held in place by
the retaining brackets.
The maximum load on the tailgate is 100 kg. A heavier load could damage the
brackets.
Opening to 180°
Depending on version, it is possible to increase
the opening angle to around 180°.
►
After opening the tailgate, raise the tailgate
slightly by pulling the brackets in the opposite
direction of operation.

Safety
Automatic operation of hazard warning lamps
When braking in an emergency, depending on
the rate of deceleration, the hazard warning
lamps come on automatically. They switch off
automatically when you next accelerate.
They can be switched off by pressing the button.
Horn
► Press the central part of the steering wheel.
Electronic stability control
(ESC)
(Depending on version)
The electronic stability control programme
includes the following systems:
–
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and Electronic
brake force distribution (EBFD).
–
Emergency braking assistance (EBA).
–
Anti-slip regulation (ASR).
–
Dynamic stability control (DSC).
–
T
railer stability assist (TSA).
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)/Electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems enhance the vehicle’s stability
and handling during braking, and enable greater
control while cornering, particularly on poor or
slippery road surfaces.
ABS prevents wheel locking in the event of
emergency braking.
Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD)
manages overall braking pressure on each
individual wheel.
►
When braking in an emergency
, depress
the pedal very firmly and maintain this
pressure.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.
The fixed illumination of this warning lamp signals that there is a fault with the ABS.
The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
carefully at a moderate speed.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
This warning lamp, when lit together with the STOP and ABS warning lamps,
accompanied by a message and an audible
signal, indicates an EBFD malfunction.
You must stop the vehicle.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch off
the ignition.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
After an impact
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Emergency braking
assistance (EBA)
This system reduces the emergency stopping
distance, by optimising the braking pressure.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is depressed. The effect of this
is a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and
an increase in braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR) / Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Anti-slip regulation (or traction control) optimises
traction by using engine braking and by applying
the brakes on the driving wheels to avoid one
or more wheels spinning. It also enhances the
vehicle's directional stability. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Driving
Driving recommendations
► Observe the driving regulations and remain
vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
►
Monitor your environment and keep your
hands on the wheel to be able to react to
anything that may happen any time.
►
Drive smoothly
, anticipate the need for
braking and maintain a longer safety distance,
especially in bad weather.
►
Stop the vehicle before performing operations
that require sustained attention (e.g.
settings).
►
During long trips, take a break every 2 hours.
T
o ensure the durability of the vehicle and
for safety reasons, remember that certain
precautionary measures must be taken when
driving the vehicle:
Manoeuvre cautiously, at low speed
Manoeuvre slowly.
Before turning, check that there are no obstacles
at mid-height along the sides.
Before reversing, check that there are no
obstacles, particularly at high level behind the
vehicle.
Load the vehicle correctly
Observe the Gross Train Weight.
To avoid unbalancing the vehicle, centre the
load, placing the heaviest part on the floor in
front of the rear wheels.
Observe the maximum weight for the roof
anchoring points, communicated by a PEUGEOT
dealer. Loads must be securely lashed down.
Loads that are not properly secured in the
loading bay can disturb the vehicle’s behaviour
and cause an accident.
The dimensions of the load in the loading
bay
must respect the (overall) dimensions of the
vehicle.
Drive the vehicle carefully
Take corners gently.
Anticipate the need to brake as the stopping
distance is increased, particularly on wet or icy
roads.
Be aware of the effect of side winds on the
vehicle.
Avoid rough manoeuvres; improper driving can
lead to loss of control of the vehicle.
Precautions for off-road driving
Before driving off-road:
– Check the engine oil level.
–
Check the condition of the wheels and tyres.
–
Make sure that you transport the tool kit as
well as specialised equipment adapted to the
terrain.
Driving on uneven terrain or roads increases the
risk of the vehicle being damaged and the driver
or passengers being injured. Drive carefully
according to the conditions of the terrain.
–
Fasten seat belts (even at low speed).
–
Do not hold the steering wheel on the inside
or by its spokes (risk of injury due to the wheel
spinning back).
– Do not accelerate suddenly and do not drive at
excessive speed.
–
Do not make sharp turns.
–
A
void dangerous areas and avoid hitting
obstacles.
–
Do not drive perpendicularly or turn around on
a steep slope (risk of tipping over). Go up/down
or reverse in a straight line (with reverse gear
engaged if reversing).
–
Never reverse on a steep slope in neutral or
with the clutch pedal depressed (with a manual
gearbox).
On a descent, the vehicle speed can increase
without any action on the accelerator pedal.
In this case, use the engine brake to slow the
vehicle down. If necessary
, depress the brake
pedal without using it for an extended period
(risk of overheating the braking system).
As a precautionary measure, anticipate the
arrival at the top of a slope (steep slope on the
other side or presence of obstacle).
It is recommended to clean the brakes
regularly after driving off-road. In the
event of noise or loss of braking efficiency, it
is essential to visit a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the braking
system checked.
Maintenance
Inflate to the minimum pressure indicated on the
label, or even over-inflate by 0.2 to 0.3 bar for
long journeys. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Driving
Do not exceed the maximum towable
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower
air density at high altitudes decreases engine
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight (at the point where it
joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device is
used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the audible
signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant
temperature to increase. The maximum towable
load depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not
increase with engine speed.
►
Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to
limit the amount of heating produced.
►
Pay constant attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit
the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances
are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more
susceptible to wind when towing.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain a code, which must be
recognised by the vehicle before starting is
possible.
If the system malfunctions, indicated by the
display of a message, the engine will not start.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
