DS 3: Driving / Gear shift indicator
DS 3 2016-2025 Owners Manual
(Depending on engine.)
System which reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and the
vehicle's equipment, the system may recommend
skipping one or more gears.
Gear engagement recommendations are not to be
considered mandatory. Indeed, the configuration
of the road, the traffic density and safety remain
determining factors when choosing the best
gear. Therefore, the driver remains responsible
for deciding whether or not to follow the system’s
advice.
The system cannot be deactivated.
With an automatic gearbox,
the system is
only active in manual operation.
The information appears on the
instrument
panel, in the form of an arrow and the
recommended gear.
The system adapts the gear
change
instructions according to the driving
conditions (e.g. slope, load) and driving style
(e.g. power demand, acceleration, braking).
The system never suggests:
engaging first gear;
engaging reverse gear.
This system keeps the vehicle briefly stationary
(for approximately 2 seconds) when making a hill
start, while you transfer your foot from the brake
pedal to the accelerator pedal...
The Stop & Start function puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
phases when the vehicle is stationary (e.g. red
lights, traffic jams)...
Other information:
For more information,
refer to the General
recommendations on the use of driving
and manoeuvring aids.
This system provides active parking assistance
for vehicles fitted with the EAT8 automatic
gearbox or a gear selector: it detects a free
"parallel" or "bay" parking space and then
operates the vehicle, parking it with no need
for driver intervention...
