Moving off
With the engine running, to move off
from position P:
F it is essential to press the brake
pedal,
F release the handbrake,
F select position R, D or M, then
gradually release the pressure
on the brake pedal; the vehicle
moves off immediately.
You can also move off from position N.
When the engine is at idle,
brakes not applied, if posi-
tion R, D or M is selected
the vehicle moves even
without the accelerator be-
ing pressed.
For this reason, do not leave children
unsupervised inside the vehicle,
with the engine running .
If the lever is not in position P, an
audible signal is heard and a mes-
sage appears when the driver's door
is opened or approximately 45 sec-
onds after the ignition is switched
off. Move the lever to P. The audible
signal stops and the message disap-
pears. When maintenance opera-
tions need to be carried out
with the engine running,
apply the handbrake and
select position
P. Never select position
N
when the vehicle is mov-
ing.
Never select positions P
or R unless the vehicle is
stationary.
Never change between positions to
optimise braking on a slippery sur-
face.
Sport and snow programs
In addition to the auto-adaptive
program, there are two special pro-
grams.
The program is displayed on the in-
strument panel screen.
Sport program
F Press button S once the engine
has been started.
The gearbox automatically favours
sporty driving and more dynamic ac-
celeration.
Snow program
This program improves starting and
drive when traction is poor.
F Press button T once the engine
has been started.
The gearbox adapts to driving on
slippery roads.
Note: you can return to the auto-
adaptive program at any time.
F Press button S or T again to
switch off the program you are in.
Automatic operation
Automatic changing of the four
gears:
F select position D in the gate.
The gearbox automatically adapts
the gear in relation to the style of
driving, the road proile and the ve-
hicle load.
The gearbox is then operating in
auto-adaptive mode, without any ac-
tion on your part.
For immediate maximum accelera-
tion without touching the gear lever,
press the accelerator pedal down as
far as it will go (kick down). The gear-
box will automatically change down
or maintain the gear selected until
maximum engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox will au-
tomatically change down in order to
provide eficient engine braking.
If you take your foot off the accel-
erator suddenly, the gearbox will not
change to a higher gear for reasons
of safety.

Manual operation
Manual changing of the four gears:
F select position M in the gate,
F push the lever to the + sign to
change to a higher gear,
F pull the lever to the - sign to
change to a lower gear.
You can change from position D
(driving in automatic mode) to posi-
tion M (driving in manual mode) at
any time.
Invalid value during manual
operation Notes
It is only possible to change from one
gear to another if the vehicle speed
and engine speed permit. If they do
not, the vehicle will operate tempo-
rarily in automatic mode.
In the event of under-revving or over-
revving, the gear selected lashes for
a few seconds, then the actual gear
engaged is displayed.
When the vehicle is stationary or
moving very slowly, the gearbox au-
tomatically selects gear
M1.
Program S (sport) and T (snow) do
not operate in manual mode.
Operating abnormality
Any operating abnormality
is indicated by the display-
ing of this warning light, an
audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multi-function
display.
In this situation the gearbox oper-
ates in downgrade mode (locked in
3rd gear). You may feel a substantial
knock when changing from P to R
and from N to R (this will not cause
any damage to the gearbox).
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h),
keeping within the limit of local speed
restrictions.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible.
If the battery is lat and the
lever is in position P, it will
be impossible to change to
another position.
Above all, do not force the
lever as there is a risk of damage to
the automatic gearbox.
This is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly
(selector between two posi-
tions).

ation, has a display on the instrument
panel to indicate the programmed
speed.
It prevents exceeding of the vehicle
speed programmed by the driver.
When the programmed speed is
reached, pressing the accelerator
pedal no longer has any effect.
The limiter operates with a pro-
grammed speed of at least 18 mph
(30 km/h); it remains active regard-
less of any action on the brake and
clutch pedals.
