SAFETY
AIR BAGS
System designed to maximise the
safety of the occupants (with the ex-
ception of the rear centre passenger)
in the event of violent collisions. It
supplements the action of the force-
limiting seat belts.
If a collision occurs, the electronic
detectors record and analyse the
front and side impacts sustained in
the impact detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the air bags are triggered instant-
ly and protect the occupants of
the vehicle (with the exception of
the rear centre passenger); im-
mediately after the impact, the air
bags del ate rapidly so that they
do not hinder visibility or the exit
of the occupants,
- in the case of a minor or rear im- pact or in certain roll-over con-
ditions, the air bags will not be
triggered; the seat belt alone is
sufi cient to provide optimum pro-
tection in these situations. The air bags do not
operate when the ignition
is switched off.
This equipment will only op-
erate once. If a second im-
pact occurs (during the same or a
subsequent accident), the air bag will
not operate.
Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone. Triggering of the air bag(s)
is accompanied by a slight
emission of harmless smoke
and a noise, due to the acti-
vation of the pyrotechnic car-
tridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensi-
tive individuals may experience slight
irritation.
The noise of the detonation may re-
sult in a slight loss of hearing for a
short time.

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 .
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 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 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, ap-
ply the handbrake and select
position
P . Never select position
N when
the vehicle is moving.
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 programmes
In addition to the auto-adaptive pro-
gramme, there are two special pro-
grammes.
The programme is displayed on the
instrument panel screen.
Automatic operation

Automatic changing of the four or
six gears:

 select position D in the gate.
The gearbox automatically adapts
the gear in relation to the style of
driving, the road proi le 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 (kickdown). 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 efi cient 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. Sport programme

 Press button S once the engine
has been started.
The gearbox automatically favours
sporty driving and more dynamic ac-
celeration.
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.

Manual operation

Manual changing of the four or six
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 tempo-
rarily in automatic mode.
In the event of under-revving or over-
revving, the gear selected l ashes 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 .
Programme S (sport) and
 (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 substan-
tial 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 l at and the
lever is in position P , it will be
impossible to change to an-
other position.
Above all, do not force the le-
ver 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).

This speed limiter, of the new gener-
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.

The operating actions must be
carried out:
- when stationary, with the en-
gine 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 briel y to de-
crease or increase by 1 mph (1 km/h).

SPEED LIMITER *
* According to country.

Note: the speed also l ashes 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 sys-
tem 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 l ash for a few seconds:
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked. In the event of a steep de-
scent or sharp acceleration,
the speed limiter will not be
able to prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed
speed.
In any event, the speed limiter cannot
replace the need to observe speed
limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance and responsibility on the
part of the driver.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly.
- never i t one mat on top of another.
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
i rmly beyond the point of re-
sistance .
The limiter is deactivated temporar-
ily and the speed displayed on the
instrument panel l ashes (e.g. at
70 mph (110 km/h)):

This cruise control, of the new genera-
tion, is linked with the speed limiter. It
has a display on the instrument panel
to indicate the memorised reference
speed.
It enables the vehicle to maintain a
steady speed programmed by the
driver.
In order for it to be memorised or ac-
tivated, the vehicle speed must be
greater than 25 mph (40 km/h) with
at least fourth gear engaged for ve-
hicles i tted with a manual gearbox.
On vehicles i tted with an automatic
gearbox, the lever must be in posi-
tion D , or in at least second gear in
sequential mode. When the cruise control function is
activated, pressing this button en-
ables you to display the distance
recorders.
After a few seconds or when this
button is pressed again, the display
returns to the cruise control func-
tion. First activation/memorising a
reference speed
As soon as you reach the chosen
speed, press button
2 or 3 . This
memorises the speed and the display
indicates (e.g. at 70 mph (110 km/h)):
Selecting the function

 Place switch 1 in the CRUISE
position. The cruise control is
not yet active and no speed has
been memorised. The display in-
dicates:
Note: It is possible to accelerate
and drive momentarily at a speed
greater than the memorised speed.
The value memorised l ashes. When
the accelerator pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the memorised
speed.
Cancelling the cruise control
If you wish to cancel the cruise con-
trol:

 Press button 4 or the brake or
clutch pedal.

Cancelling the memorised
reference speed

 When the vehicle becomes sta-
tionary, after switching off the
ignition, the system no longer
memorises a speed. When changing the memo-
rised reference speed by
means of a maintained press,
pay attention as the speed
can increase or decrease rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on slip-
pery roads or in heavy trafi c.
In the event of a steep slope, the
cruise control cannot prevent the
vehicle from exceeding the pro-
grammed speed.
In any event, the cruise control can-
not replace the need to comply with
speed limits, nor can it replace the
need for vigilance and responsibility
on the part of the driver.
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly.
- never i t one mat on top of another.
Reactivating the cruise control
After cancellation of the cruise con-
trol,
press button 4 . Your vehicle will
return to the last memorised speed.
The display indicates (e.g. at 70 mph
(110 km/h)):
Changing the memorised
reference speed
To memorise a speed higher than the
previous one, there are two options:
Without using the accelerator:

 press button 3 ;
A brief press increases by 1 mph
(1 km/h).
An extended press increases by
5 mph (5 km/h).
A maintained press increases in
steps of 5 mph (5 km/h).
Using the accelerator:

 exceed the memorised speed un-
til the required speed is reached,

 press button 2 or 3 . Operating fault
In the event of a cruise control mal-
function, the memorised speed is
erased, the dashes l ash for a few
seconds:
