DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING

Fuel consumption is accredited in ac-
cordance with a standard regulatory
method. Identical for all manufactu-
rers, this enables vehicles to be com-
pared with one another. Consumption
in real time depends on vehicle usage
conditions, the equipment fitted and the
user's driving style. To optimise fuel
consumption, please refer to the fol-
lowing advice.

Depending on the vehicle, you will have
various functions which enable you to
lower your fuel consumption:
– the rev counter;
– the "free-wheel" function;
– performance mode;
– gear change indicator;
– the driving style indicator;
– the journey record and eco-driving
advice via the multimedia screen;
– ECO mode activated by the ECO or
DRIVE MODE button;
– the Stop and Start function ➥ 2.8.
If fitted on the vehicle, the navigation
system provides additional information.
"Free-wheel" function
Depending on the vehicle, on vehi-
cles fitted with an automatic gearbox
and with ECO mode activated, during
deceleration phases (driver's foot fully
off the accelerator pedal), switching to
freewheeling (automatic neutral) allows
you to move farther without accelerat-
ing in order to save fuel.

The indicator light is displayed
on the instrument panel in green (or in
white, depending on the vehicle) when
the vehicle is freewheeling (automatic
neutral).
Note: the "free-wheel" function is de-
activated when the brake pedal is
pressed or when the accelerator pedal
is pressed.
