Introduction

Depending on the vehicle, using subscription-based maps this function allows you to adopt a more economical driving style.

When approaching a driving situation (roundabout, speed limit, etc.) the function informs the driver, via an indicator displayed on the instrument panel, at which moment to release the accelerator pedal.

If the driver takes this action it enables the vehicle to stop accelerating and to limit the use of the brakes.

This enables a reduction in battery consumption and in the wearing of the brake pads and tyres.

Activation/deactivation

From the "Vehicle" world, select the "Driving aids" menu, then "ECO predictive driving assistant".

Please refer to the multimedia instructions for further information.

Operating principle

When a driving situation is about to occur, the warning lights 1 are 2 displayed on the instrument panel.

The warning light 2 prompts the driver to release the accelerator pedal.

The warning light 1 shows the imminent driving situation.

When the driver releases the accelerator pedal, the warning light 2 disappears from the instrument panel. The warning light 1 remains displayed on the instrument panel until the situation occurs.

If the driver does not adjust their speed, the warning lights 1 and 2 remain displayed on the instrument panel until the situation occurs.

Driving situations

The following symbols indicate the driving situations that the system takes into account:

  • (roundabout);
  • (bend);
  • (speed limit);
  • (T-junction);
  • ...

When the direction indicator light is activated:

  • (intersection);
  • (depending on geographical area, exit).

Depending on the subscription and/or geographical area and following the activation of the "Predictive Event and Traffic Alerts" from the multimedia screen, the vehicle will take into account the following dynamic events:

  • (heavy traffic).

Depending on the subscription and/or geographical area, the following events are also indicated without any incentive to slow down:

  • (roadworks);
  • (accident);
  • (stationary vehicle).

Note: heavy traffic, roadworks, accidents and stationary vehicles are dynamic events whose position may be less precise.

The function is not able to detect the following:

  • slopes (uphill or downhill);
  • stop or give way.
