For eco-driving during manual gear changing, it is important to drive in the right gear and to change gear in good time.
With manual gearbox
An up-arrow indicates a recommended change to a higher gear, and a down-arrow a recommended change to a lower gear.
With automatic gearbox
The gear shift indicator shows the current gear in the driver display and indicates recommended shifting to a higher gear by a flashing plus sign.
Note
On automatic cars, the gear shift indicator is only available on certain markets.
