When the engine is running or the vehi-
cle is moving, the lighting of one of the
following warning lights indicates the
occurrence of a fault requiring interven-
tion on the part of the driver. Central alert.
Lighting is associated with
the displaying of another
warning light:
- punctured wheel,
- braking,
- power steering,
- engine oil pressure,
- coolant temperature,
stop the vehicle immediately and as
safely as possible.
Service.
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a problem in one
of the systems which does not
have a specifi c warning light.
In order to identify it, consult the mes-
sage on the multifunction display.

- the pressure of the tyres,
- the end of saturation of the particle emission fi lter (Diesel),
for any other situations, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer. Braking.
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a fault in one of
the braking systems:

Coolant temperature indicator
System which informs the driver of the
changes in the temperature of the en-
gine coolant while driving.
With the engine running, when the nee-
dle is:
- in zone A , the temperature is
correct,
- in zone B , the temperature is
too high; the max temperature
warning light 1 and the central

STOP warning light come on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the multifunction
display.

You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off
the engine.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. After driving for a few minutes, the tem-
perature and pressure in the cooling
system increase.
To top up the level:

 wait for the engine to cool,

 unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop,

 when the pressure has dropped,
remove the cap,

 top up the level to the "MAX" mark.

!
SAFETY
The ESP/ASR systems offer ex-
ceptional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer's recommen-
dations regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and the
PEUGEOT assembly and operation
procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Disarming
In exceptional conditions (starting a
vehicle which is bogged down, stuck
in snow, on soft ground, ...), it may be
advisable to disarm the ASR and ESP
systems, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.
 Press the "ESP OFF" button, located
in the centre of the fascia.
If this warning light comes on
the instrument panel and the
indicator light on the button
comes on, this indicates that
the ASR and ESP systems are
disarmed.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automat-
ically each time the ignition is switched
back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).

 Press the "ESP OFF" button again
to reactivate them manually. Operating fault
If this warning light comes on, ac-
companied by an audible signal
and a message on the multifunc-
tion display, this indicates a mal-
function of these systems.
Have the systems checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
TRAJECTORY CONTROL SYSTEMS
Activation
These systems are activated automati-
cally each time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event
of a grip or trajectory problem.
Anti-skid regulation (ASR) and
electronic stability programme
(ESP)
The anti-skid regulation optimises trac-
tion to prevent skidding of the wheels,
by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts
on the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to keep the vehicle on the
trajectory required by the driver.
This is indicated by fl ashing of
this warning light on the instru-
ment panel.

DRIVING Stopping the vehicle Operating fault With the ignition on, if this warn-
ing light comes on and AUTO
fl ashes, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message on
the multifunction display, this indicates
a malfunction of the gearbox.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
It is essential to press the brake
pedal when starting the engine.
When parking, is it essential to apply
the handbrake to immobilise the ve-
hicle, whatever the circumstances.
When immobilising the vehicle,
with the engine running, it is es-
sential to place the gear lever in
neutral
N .
Before carrying out any work in the
engine compartment, check that
the gear lever is in neutral N and
that the handbrake is applied. With the ignition on, if the warn-
ing light above and this warning
light come on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction display, this
indicates a malfunction of the hill start
assistance.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Sport function

 Following selection of the sequential
mode or automatic mode, press
button S to activate the Sport
function which offers you a more
dynamic style of driving.

S appears next to the gear en-
gaged on the instrument panel
display.

 Press button S again to deactivate
the function.

S is then cleared from the instrument
panel display.
The Sport function is deactivated
each time the ignition is switched
off. Before switching off the engine, you can
choose to:
- move to position
N to engage
neutral,
- leave the gear engaged; in this case, it will not be possible to move
the vehicle.
In both cases, it is essential that you
apply the handbrake to immobilise the
vehicle.

DRIVING
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you
can engage position P or N to place the
gearbox in neutral.
In both cases, apply the handbrake to
immobilise the vehicle. Operating fault
When the ignition is on, the
lighting of this warning light, ac-
companied by an audible signal
and a message on the multi-
function display, indicates a gearbox
malfunction.
In this case, the gearbox switches to
emergency mode and is 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), local
speed restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
If the battery is fl at and the lever is
in position P , it will not be possible
to change to another position.
Above all, do not force the lever as
this could damage the gearbox.
Manual operation

 Select position M for sequential
changing of the four or six gears.

 Push the lever towards the + sign to
change up a gear.

 Pull the lever towards the - sign to
change down a gear.

D disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succes-
sion on the instrument panel.
In the event of under-revving
or over-revving, the gear se-
lected fl ashes for a few seconds, then
the actual gear engaged is displayed. If the lever is not in position
P ,
when the driver's door is opened or
approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off, an audible
signal is heard and a message ap-
pears.

 Return the lever to position P ;
the audible signal stops and the
message disappears.
It is only possible to change from one
gear to another if the vehicle speed and
engine speed permit; otherwise, the
gearbox will operate temporarily in au-
tomatic mode.
Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selec-
tor between two positions).

It is possible to change from position D
(automatic) to position M (manual) at
any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or mov-
ing very slowly, the gearbox selects
gear M1 automatically.
The sport and snow programmes do not
operate in manual mode.
