DRIVING
77
Moving off
With the engine running, to move off
from position P:

it is essential to press the brake
pedal,
 release the handbrake,

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.Sport and snow programmes
In addition to the auto-adaptive
programme, there are two special
programmes.
The programme is displayed on the
instrument panel screen.
Sport programme
 Press button S once the engine
has been started.
The gearbox automatically favours
sporty driving and more dynamic
acceleration.
Snow programme
This programme improves starting
and drive when traction is poor.
 Press button
 once the engine
has been started.
The gearbox adapts to driving on
slippery roads.
Note: you can return to the auto-
adaptive programme at any time.
 Press button S or
 again to
switch off the programme you are
in.
Automatic operation
Automatic changing of the four
gears:
 select position D in the gate.
The gearbox automatically adapts the
gear in relation to the style of driving,
the road profile and the vehicle load.
The gearbox is then operating in
auto-adaptive mode, without any
action on your part.
For immediate maximum acceleration
without touching the gear lever, press
the accelerator pedal down as far as
it will go (kickdown). The gearbox
will automatically change down or
maintain the gear selected until
maximum engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox will
automatically change down in order
to provide efficient engine braking.
If you take your foot off the accelerator
suddenly, the gearbox will not
change to a higher gear for reasons
of safety.
When the engine is at idle,
brakes not applied, if position
R,
D or M is selected the vehicle
moves even without the accel-
erator being 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 seconds after the ignition is
switched off. Move the lever to P . The audible signal stops and
the message disappears. Never select position
N when
the vehicle is moving.
Never select positions P or
R unless the vehicle is stationary.
Never change between posi-
tions to optimise braking on a
slippery surface.
When maintenance operations
need to be carried out with the
engine running, apply the hand-
brake and select position
P.

Manual operation
Manual changing of the four gears:
 select position M in the gate,
 push the lever to the + sign to change to a higher gear,
 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 temporarily in automatic mode.
In the event of under-revving or over-revving, the gear selected flashes for a few seconds, then the actual gear engaged is displayed.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving very slowly, the gearbox automatically selects gear M1.
Programme S (sport) and  (snow) do not operate in manual mode.
Operating abnormality
Any operating abnormality is indicated by the displaying of this warning light, an audible signal and a message on the multi-function display.
In this situation the gearbox operates 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.
This is displayed if a gear is not engaged correctly (selec-tor between two positions).

This speed limiter, of the new generation, 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 programmed speed of at least 18 mph (30 km/h); it remains active regardless of any action on the brake and clutch pedals.
The operating actions must be carried out:
- when stationary, with the engine running,or
- with the vehicle moving.
When the speed limiter function is active, pressing this button displays the distance recorders.
After a few seconds or when this button is pressed again, the display returns to the speed limiter function.
Storing a speed
A speed can be stored without acti-vating the limiter.
Press buttons 2 and 3 briefly to decrease or increase by 1 mph (1 km/h).
An extended press decreases or in-creases by 5 mph (5 km/h).
A maintained press decreases or in-creases the programmed speed in steps of 5 mph (5 km/h).
Selecting the function
 Place the dial 1 in the LIMIT posi-tion. The limiter is not yet active. By default, the display indicates:
Activating/deactivating the limiter
Pressing button 4 once activates the limiter, pressing the button again deactivates it.
When the limiter is active, the display indicates (e.g. at 70 mph (110 km/h)):

Note: the speed also flashes when the limiter cannot prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed (on a steep descent, in the event of sharp acceleration).
To reactivate the limiter, release the accelerator to slow down to a speed below the programmed speed.
Switching the function off
 Place dial 1 in position 0 or switch off the ignition to switch the system off. The last programmed speed remains in the memory.
Operating fault
In the event of a limiter malfunction, the programmed speed is cleared, the dashes flash for a few seconds:
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system checked.
Exceeding the programmed speed
In exceptional circumstances, use this mode to exceed the programmed speed.
Pressing the accelerator in order to exceed the programmed speed will have no effect unless you press the pedal firmly beyond the point of resistance.
The limiter is deactivated temporarily and the speed displayed on the instrument panel flashes (e.g. at 70 mph (110 km/h)):
