Peugeot Partner 2008-2018 Owner's Manual Eco-driving

152ECO-DRIVINGMotoring & the EnvironmentPartner-2-VU_en_Chap02_eco-conduite_ed02-2016EnvironmentWith you, PEUGEOT acts to protect the environment.We invite you to visit the www.peugeot.co.uk website.As the driver, you also can contribute to protecting the environment in the following way:-drive smoothly, without frequent and harsh acceleration,-observe the service intervals; we recommend that services are carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer, authorised to collect used batteries and fluids,-in order to preserve the reliability of the engine and emission control systems, do not use engine oil additives.Refer to information on eco-driving at the end of this section.
16Motoring & the EnvironmentPartner-2-VU_en_Chap02_eco-conduite_ed02-2016Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.Eco-drivingOptimise the use of your gearboxWith 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 efficiency 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 smoothlyMaintain 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 CO2emissions 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 equipmentSwitch 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.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.
172ECO-DRIVINGMotoring & the EnvironmentPartner-2-VU_en_Chap02_eco-conduite_ed02-2016Limit the causes of excess consumptionSpread 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 maintenanceCheck 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 (3000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.
