If the lever is not in position P, an alert
message appears on the screen on
opening the driver's door or approximately
45
seconds after switching off the ignition.
F

R
eposition the lever at position P ; the
message disappears.
When driving on flooded roads or when
crossing a
ford, proceed at walking pace.
When the ignition is on, the lighting
of this warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message
on the screen, indicates a
gearbox
fault.
In this case, the gearbox goes into back-up
mode by staying in 3rd gear. You may feel
a

substantial jolt when changing from P to
R and from N to R . This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 62
mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible. There is a
risk of damage to the gearbox:
F i f you press the accelerator and brake
pedals at the same time,
F

w
ith a flat battery, if you force the
movement of the lever from position P
to another position.
To reduce fuel consumption during
prolonged stops with the engine running
(e.g. traffic jam), position the gear lever at
N and apply the parking brake.
Gear shift indicator
(Depending on engine.)
System which reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one or more gears. You can
follow this indication without engaging the
intermediate gears.
Gear shift recommendations must not be
considered as compulsory. In fact, the road
layout, the traffic density and safety remain the
deciding factors when choosing the best gear. With an automatic gearbox, the system is
only active in manual operation.
The information appears in the
instrument panel, in the form of an
ascending or descending arrow and
the recommended gear.
The system adapts its gear shift
recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the
driver's requirements (power, acceleration,
b r a k i n g , e t c .) .
The system never suggests:
-
e
ngaging first gear,
-
enga
ging reverse.
On vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox,
the arrow may be accompanied by the
gear recommended. The system always
recommends to change up if necessary.
Depending on the engine, it may also
recommend to change down if necessary.
The driver therefore remains responsible for
deciding whether or not to follow the indications
issued by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.

Hill start assist
System that holds your vehicle for around
2 seconds, the time it takes to move your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
The hill start assist function cannot be
deactivated. However, use of the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts
its function. Hill start assist is only available when:
-

y
our foot on the brake pedal fully
immobilises the vehicle,
-

c
ertain slope conditions are met,
-

t
he driver's door is closed.Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily by hill start assist.
If you need to leave the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the parking brake
manually. Then ensure that the parking
brake warning lamp is on fixed in the
instrument panel.
Malfunction
If a fault in the system occurs, these warning
l amps come on. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a
qualified workshop to have the system
checked.
Uphill, with the vehicle stationar y, the
vehicle is held for a

shor t time when you
release the brake pedal.
With an automatic gearbox, if you are in
position D . Downhill, with the vehicle stationary and
reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held
for a

shor t time when you release the brake
pedal.
Stop & Start
The system puts the engine temporarily into
standby – STOP mode – during stops in the
traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.). The engine
restarts automatically – START mode – as
soon as you wish to move off again. Restarting
occurs instantaneously, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.
STOP mode
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby.

Malfunction
The registered speed is erased, then replaced
by three dashes.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a


qualified workshop. Under no circumstances can the speed
limiter replace the need to obser ve speed
limits, nor the need for vigilance on the
part of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profile of the
road, be careful when accelerating sharply
and stay in complete control of your
vehicle.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
-

e
nsure that the mat is positioned and
secured to the floor correctly,

Reversing camera
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image is displayed on the touch screen.
The reversing camera function may be
supplemented with parking sensors.
The superimposed representation of guide
lines helps with the manoeuvre.
They are represented as lines marked "on the
ground" and do not indicate the position of the
vehicle in relation to tall obstacles (e.g. other
vehicles).
Some distortion of the image is normal.
The blue lines 1 represent the general direction of
t he vehicle (the distance between them represents
the width of your vehicle without the door mirrors).
The red line 2
represents a distance of about
30
cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r.
The green lines 3
represent distances of about
1
and 2 metres beyond the edge of your vehicle's
rear bumper.
The reversing camera cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
High-pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, do not direct
the lance from less than 30
cm from the
lens of the camera.
Opening the tailgate causes the display to
disappear.
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a
soft, dry cloth.
Park Assist
The system detects a parking space and then
p rovides assistance with the parallel parking
manoeuvres.
The Park Assist system cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for vigilance on
the part 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 manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel per forms rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel, do not put your hands
between the spokes of the steering wheel.
Watch out for any object that could block
the manoeuvre (loose clothing, scar ves,
ties, etc.) – Risk of injury!
It controls the steering and provides visual and
audible information to the driver.
If you have a
manual gearbox, the driver
manages the acceleration, braking, gears and
clutch.
With an automatic gearbox, the driver manages
the acceleration, braking and gears.
The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.

Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle
services.
Unless there is a
leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Brake disc/drum wear
For any information on checking
brake disc/drum wear, contact
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
e ffectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be adjusted, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Wheels and tyres
The pressure must be checked on
all tyres, including the spare wheel,
when the tyres are "cold", at least
once a month and before a long
j o u r n ey. steering. Regular inspections of the condition
of tyres (tread and sides) and rims are
recommended as well as making sure that
valves are fitted.
Using different size wheels and tyres from
those specified can affect the lifetime of tyres,
wheel rotation, ground clearance and the
speedometer reading and have an adverse
effect on road holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
The pressures given on the tyre pressure label
are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for
more than 10
minutes or more than 6 miles
(10

kilometres) at more than 31 mph (50 km/h),
0.3

bar (30 kPa) should be added to the values
given on the label.
Under-inflation increases fuel consumption.
Non-compliant tyre pressure causes premature
wear on tyres and has an adverse effect on the
vehicle's road holding – Risk of an accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces
braking efficiency and control of the vehicle's
