ECO-DRIVING

Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO₂emis-

sions.

Remember to make use of equipment

that can help keep the temperature

in the passenger compartment down

(sun roof and window blinds...).

With an automatic or electronic gearbox,

stay in Drive "D" or Auto "A", according

to the type of gearbox, without pressing

the accelerator pedal heavily or sud-

denly.

Switch off the air conditioning, unless

it has automatic digital regulation, as

soon as the desired temperature is at-

tained.

Switch off the demisting and defrost-

ing controls, if not automatic.

Switch off the heated seat as soon as

possible.

Drive smoothly

Maintain a safe distance between ve-

hicles, use engine braking rather than

the brake pedal, and press the accel-

erator progressively. These practices

contribute towards a reduction in fuel

consumption and CO emissions and

also helps reduce the ²background traf-

ﬁc noise.

Switch off the headlamps and front

foglamps when the level of light does

not require their use.

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.
