Familiarisation

Limit the causes of excess consumption


Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in thebottom 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
maintenance


Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aperture, driver's side. Carry out this check in par ticular:


- 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 ser viced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) andobser ve the schedule of operations recommended by the manufacturer.


When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle toavoid any overflow.


At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down toa consistent average.

Steering wheel adjustment
)When stationary, pull the control lever toyrelease the adjustment mechanism.)
Adjust the height and reach to suit your
driving position.) Push the control lever to lock the
adjustment mechanism.
As a safety precaution, these operations should only be carried outwhile the vehicle is stationary. These have one position for use
(up) and a stowed position (down).
They can be removed and are interchangeableside to side.To remove a head restraint:)pull the head restraint upwards to the stop, )then, press the lug A .
Rear head restraints


Never drive with the head restraints removed; they must be in place and correctly adjusted.

Correct driving
position

Before taking to the road, carry out these
adjustments in the following order:


- longitudinal position and height of the
driver's seat,

- hei
ght of the driver's seat head restraint,

- height and reach of the steering wheel.

Once these adjustments have been made,ensure that you can see the instrument panel clearly from your driving position.

Five-speed electronically controlled gearbox
which offers a choice between the comfort of
automatic operation or the pleasure of manual
gear changing.
Three driving modes are offered:-automatedmode for automatic control
of the gears by the gearbox, without ant action by the driver.
-
sequentialmode for manual changing of
the gears by the driver, using the gear lever
or the steering mounted control paddles.
-
auto sequential
mode for over taking, for example, remaining in the automated mode
while using the functions of the sequentialmode.

) Turn thumb wheel 1to the "LIMIT"position: the speed limiter mode
i
s selected but is not switched on(PAUSE).
You do not have to switch the speed limiter
on in order to set the speed.



Programming
Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the programmed speed will not have
any effect unless you press the pedal firmlypast the ypoint of resistance.e The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the programmed speed,
which is still displayed, flashes.
Returning to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or unintentional
deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of theprogrammed speed.

Leaving limiter mode
)
Turn thumb wheel 1to the "0"
position:
the speed limiter mode is deselected. The
displa
y returns to the distance recorder.
On a steep descent or in the event of sharp acceleration, the speed limiter willnot be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:


- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,

- do not fit one mat on top of another.

In the event o
f a speed limiter fault, the speed
is cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.


Operating fault
)Set the speed value by pressing button 2or 3(e.g.: 55 mph(90 km/h)).
You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2 and 3:


- by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = shor t press,

- by + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press,

- in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.




Exceeding the programmed speed
)Switch the speed limiter back on by pressing button 4
again.


)Switch the speed limiter on by pressing button 4 . )Switch the speed limiter off by pressing button 4
: the display confirms that it has been switched off (PAUS E).

) Turn thumb wheel 1to the "CRUISE"position: the cruise control mode
is selected but is not switched on(PAUSE).




Programming
You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2
and 3:


- by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = shor t press,

- by + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press,

- in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.


Intentional or unintentional exceedin
g of the programmed speed results
in flashing of this speed in the screen.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or
unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels theflashing of the speed.
When the cruise control is switched on,be careful if you maintain the pressure on one of the programmed speedchanging buttons: this may result in avery rapid change in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery roads or in heavy traffic. On a steep descent, the cruise control will not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:


- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,

- never fit one mat on top of another.

In the event o
f a cruise control malfunction,
the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the
dashes. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Park Assist


This system provides active assistance with parking, detecting a parking space then controlling the steering to park in the space.
It controls the steering while the driver manages the accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch (manual gearbox). During phases of entry into and exit from
a parking space, the system provides visual and audible information to the driver in order to make the manoeuvre safe. It may be necessary to move
forwards and backwards more than once.

For entry into a parking space (parallel
parking) the system does not detect spaces which are clearly much smaller or larger than the size of the vehicle.
This "parking assistance" system is activated automatically duringmanoeuvres; it is therefore possible that a symbol comes on in the screen,accompanied by an audible signal,without affecting the manoeuvre.
When Park Assist is activated, it prevents a change to STOP mode of Stop & Star t. In STOP mode, activationof Park Assist restarts the engine.



The Park Assist system cannot in anycircumstances replace the care and responsibility of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their vehicle ensuring that the space remains clear during the manoeuvre. In some circumstances, the sensors may not detect small obstacles located in their blind spots.
During a manoeuvre the steering wheel
turns quickly: do not hold the steering wheel, do not place your hand betweenthe spokes of the steering wheel andtake care with loose and bulky clothing,scarves, handbags... There is a risk of injury.

The s
ystem provides assistance in entering and exiting a parking space when parallel parking.
The driver can take control at any time by gripping the steering wheel.

Practical information
)Place the jack 2 in contact with one of thetwo front Aor rear B
locations provided on
the underbody, whichever is closest to the
wheel to be changed.
) Remove the bolts and store them in a clean place. )
Remove the wheel.
)
Extend the jack 2
until its base plate is in contact with the ground. Ensure that the centreline of the jack base plate is directly below the location Aor B
used.)
Raise the vehicle until there is sufficientspace between the wheel and the ground
to admit the spare (not punctured) wheeleasily.
