Eco-driving Eco-driving Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO emissions. Optimise the use of your gearbox Control the use of your electrical equipment With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it During acceleration change up early. 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. With an automatic or electronic gearbox, give preference to automatic Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly. temperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window blinds...). The gear shift indicator invites you engage the most suitable gear: as Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regulation, as soon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it soon as the desired temperature is attained. straight away. Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not automatic. For vehicles fitted with an electronic or automatic gearbox, this Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible. indicator appears only in manual mode. Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps when the level of light Drive smoothly does not require their use.

Eco-driving Limit the causes of excess consumption Observe the recommendations on maintenance Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats. the door aperture, driver's side. Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance Carry out this check in particular: (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in - before a long journey, preference. - at each change of season, Remove roof bars and roof racks after use. - after a long period out of use. Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan. At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres. 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 CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop without delay to have the emissions of nitrous 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.
