Eco-driving

Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimize their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

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 shift 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 CO2 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

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.

• 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.

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.

Indicator and warning lamps
Visual indicators informing the driver that a system is in operation or is switched off (indicator lamp), or has a fault (warning lamp).

When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds when the vehicle’s ignition is switched on. When the engine is started, these same warning lamps should go off. If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the information on the warning lamp concerned.

Associated warnings
Certain warning lamps may come on in one of two modes: fixed (continuous) or flashing. Only by relating the type of illumination to the operation of the vehicle can it be determined whether the situation is normal or a fault has occurred. In the event of a fault, the illumination of the warning lamp may be accompanied by an audible signal and/or a message.

Warning lamps
When the engine is running or the vehicle is being driven, illumination of one of the following warning lamps indicates a fault which requires action on the part of the driver. Any fault resulting in the illumination of a warning lamp must be investigated further using the associated message. If you encounter any problems, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Operation indicator lamps
If one of the following indicator lamps comes on in the instrument panel and/or instrument panel screen, this confirms that the corresponding system has come into operation.

Deactivation indicator lamps
If one of the following indicator lamps comes on, this confirms that the corresponding system has been switched off intentionally. This is may be accompanied by an audible signal and the display of a message.

More than 1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain before the next service is due
When the ignition is switched on, no service information appears in the screen.

Between 600 miles (1 000 km) and 1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain before the next service is due
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner symbolising the service operations comes on. The distance recorder display line indicates the distance remaining before the next service is due. Example: 1 700 miles (2 800 km) remain before the next service is due.

For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:

• 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner goes off; the distance recorder resumes its normal operation. The screen then indicates the total distance.

Less than 600 miles (1 000 km) remain before the next service is due

Example: 560 miles (900 km) remain before the next service is due.

• For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:
• 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the distance recorder resumes its normal operation. The spanner remains on to indicate that a service must be carried out soon.

Service overdue

• For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner flashes to indicate that the service must be carried out as soon as possible.
  Example: the service is overdue by 180 miles (300 km).
• For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:
  • 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the distance recorder resumes its normal operation. The spanner remains on.
  • For BlueHDi Diesel versions, this alert may also be accompanied by the fixed illumination of the service warning lamp when the ignition is on.

The distance remaining may be weighted by the time factor, depending on the driving conditions. Therefore, the spanner may also come on if you have exceeded the period since the last service, indicated in the manufacturer’s service schedule. For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the spanner may also be brought on earlier than expected, depending on the degree of deterioration of the engine oil (depending on the country of sale). The rate of deterioration of the engine oil depends on the driving conditions in which the vehicle is used.

Resetting the service indicator

• After each service, the service indicator must be reset to zero.
• If you have carried out the service on your vehicle yourself, switch off the ignition:
  • Switch on the ignition; the distance recorder display begins a countdown,
  • When the display indicates “=0”, release the button; the spanner disappears.

If you have to disconnect the battery following this operation, lock the vehicle and wait at least five minutes for the reset to be registered.

Retrieving the service information
You can access the service information at any time.

• The service information is displayed for a few seconds, then disappears.

Engine oil level indicator
On versions fitted with an electric oil gauge, information on the oil level is displayed in the instrument panel for a few seconds when the ignition is switched on, at the same time as the service information.

• The level read will only be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine has been off for more than 30 minutes.

Oil level correct
This is indicated by a message in the instrument panel.

Oil level incorrect

• This is indicated by a message in the instrument panel.
• If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using the dipstick, the level must be topped-up to avoid damage to the engine.

Oil level indicator fault
This is indicated by a message in the instrument panel. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Dipstick
To locate the dipstick and the oil filler cap for the Diesel engine, refer to the corresponding section.

There are 2 marks on the dipstick:

• A = max; never exceed this level,
• B = min; top-up the level via the oil filler, using the grade of oil suited to your engine.

AdBlue fluid range indicators

Once the AdBlue® tank is on reserve or after detection of a fault with the SCR emissions control system, when the ignition is switched on, an indicator displays an estimate of the distance that can be covered, the range, before engine starting is prevented. In the event of simultaneous system fault and low AdBlue® level, the shortest range figure is the one displayed.

The engine start prevention system required by regulations is activated automatically once the AdBlue® tank is empty.

In the event of the risk of non-starting related to a lack of AdBlue®

Remaining range greater than 1 500 miles (2 400 km)
When switching on the ignition, there is no automatic display of range in the instrument panel.

• Pressing this button will display the remaining range.
• You can access this information in the touch screen, if your vehicle has one.
• The range is then displayed temporarily.
• Above 3 000 miles (5 000 km), the value is not specified.

The remaining range is between 350 and 1500 miles (600 and 2 400 km)
When switching on the ignition, this warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and the display of a message (e.g.: “Top up emissions additive: Starting prevented in 900 miles”) indicating the remaining range expressed in miles or kilometres. When driving, the message is displayed every 200 miles (300 km) until the fluid has been topped-up. Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the AdBlue® topped up. You can also top-up the tank yourself.

• For more information on AdBlue® and the SCR system, and in particular, on topping up the AdBlue®, refer to the corresponding section.

The remaining range is between 0 and 350 miles (0 and 600 km)
When switching on the ignition, this warning lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible signal and the display of a message (e.g. “Top up emissions additive: Starting prevented in 350 miles”) indicating the remaining range expressed in miles or kilometres. When driving, the message is displayed every 30 seconds until the fluid has been topped-up. Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the AdBlue® topped up. You can also top-up the tank yourself. Otherwise, you will not be able to restart your engine.

• For more information on AdBlue® and the SCR system, and in particular, on topping up the AdBlue®, refer to the corresponding section.

Breakdown related to a lack of AdBlue®
When switching on the ignition, this warning lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible signal and the display of the message “Top up emissions additive: Starting prevented”. The AdBlue® tank is empty: the system required by regulations prevents the engine from starting.

• To be able to start the engine, we recommend that you call on a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop for the top-up required. If you carry out the top-up yourself, it is essential to add at least 3.8 litres of AdBlue® to the tank.
