DRIVING
FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM
WITH ELECTRONIC CONTROL
4WD AUTO (position 1)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive and provides optimum traction re-
gardless of the level of grip.
This is the vehicle's normal and regular
operating mode, the distribution of the
torque between the front and rear axles
is controlled automatically.
The distribution favours the front wheels, the transfer of torque to the rear wheels
is managed electronically by the control
unit in relation to the level of grip, so
guaranteeing optimum road holding.
Three transmission modes are avail-
able and can be selected manually by
the driver in accordance with his re-
quirements.
You can change transmission mode
when stationary or while driving at a
speed below 60 mph (100 km/h) .
The transmission mode can be selected
by turning the control A . Display on the instrument panel
The transmission mode is displayed in
the form of an intermittent display on
the instrument panel screen when the
transmission mode is selected.
Selecting the transmission
mode
The selection of this mode is
recommended when the level of
grip permits.
2WD (position 3)
The vehicle operates with front two
wheel drive.
This mode corresponds to use on a
tarmacked road on which the driver
considers that there is no risk of loss of
grip (dry road).
4WD LOCK (position 2)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive in this mode also.
It is recommended when grip is par-
ticularly poor or diffi cult (sand, mud,
slopes, ...).
System which permits the selection of
a transmission mode in relation to the
driving conditions.

DRIVING
Operating faults
If the selected transmission mode dis-
play fl ashes, the vehicle switches auto-
matically to front "2WD" transmission
mode.
It is then no longer possible to select the
transmission mode using the control A . Do not subject the vehicle to ex-
cessive conditions while driving.
As the engine torque is applied
to all four wheels, the condition
of the tyres has a considerable
impact on the performance of
the vehicle.
Ensure that all four tyres are in
good condition.
Avoid driving the vehicle in
sandy or muddy areas or in
other areas in which the wheels
could spin.
Spinning the wheels places the
transmission components under
pressure and could cause a se-
rious malfunction.
Do not drive the vehicle through
deep water.
Avoid driving over excessively
uneven terrain (risk of scraping
under the body or of grounding
on crossing a bridge).
Have your vehicle towed on a
fl atbed.
The vehicle must not be towed
with the front or rear wheels on
the ground even if it is in front
"2WD" (2 wheel drive) mode.
If the message "SLOW DOWN" is dis-
played on the instrument panel, let the
transmission cool down then wait for the
display to clear before setting off again.
If "4WD" and "LOCK" are displayed
alternately and if "MAINTENANCE
REQUIRED" is displayed on the
instrument panel, the system has
failed and the safety system has been
activated.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer without
delay.

Programming

 Press button 1 .

 Set the programmed speed by ac-
celerating to the required speed,
then press button 2 "COAST SET" .
CRUISE CONTROL
The controls of this system are grouped
together on the steering wheel.

1. "ON/OFF" button: activation/deacti-
vation of the cruise control mode.

2. "COAST SET" button: storing of a
driving speed and decreasing of the
cruising speed.

3. "ACC RES" button: increasing of
the cruising speed and recalling of
the stored speed.

4. "CANCEL" button: switching off of
the cruise control. When you press button
1 , the "CRUISE"
indicator comes on in the instrument
panel.
Steering mounted controls Display on the instrument pa
nel
The cruise control cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of
the need to comply with speed
limits or of the vigilance and re-
sponsibility of the driver.
System which automatically main-
tains the vehicle speed at the value
programmed by the driver, without any
action on the accelerator pedal.

The cruise control is
switched on
manually: the vehicle speed must be
25 mph (40 km/h) minimum and second
gear must be engaged in the case of a
manual gearbox.

The cruise control is switched off man-
ually, by an action on the brake or clutch
pedal or if the ASC system is triggered.

The programmed speed can be
exceeded temporarily by pressing the
accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply release the accelerator pedal.

Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.

DRIVING
When the cruise control is in
operation, pay attention if you
press and hold one of the pro-
grammed speed adjustment
buttons: this can result in a very
rapid change in the speed of
your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on
slippery roads or in heavy traffi c.
On a steep descent, the cruise
control will not be able to pre-
vent the vehicle from exceeding
the programmed speed.
To prevent the mat from becom-
ing caught under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is posi-tioned correctly,
- never fi t one mat on top of another.
Deactivating the function
To deactivate the cruise control:

 Press the brake or clutch pedal, or

 Press button 1 "ON OFF" , or

 Press button 4 "CANCEL" .

The cruise control may be deactivated
automatically:

 When the vehicle reaches a speed
below 20 mph (35 km/h).

 When the active stability control sys-
tem (ASC) comes into operation. Reactivating the function
When the cruise control has been de-
activated, you can return to the stored
speed by pressing button
3 "ACC RES"
when you reach a minimum speed of
25 mph (40 km/h).
Decreasing the programmed
speed

 Using button 2 "COAST SET" :
- successive presses decrease the speed in steps of approximately
1 mph (1.6 km/h).
- a maintained press of this button decreases the speed progressively.
Once the speed required has been
reached, release the button, the new
speed is stored.

 Using the brake pedal:
- brake to deactivate the cruise control, then press button 2 "COAST SET" .
Release to store the new speed. Temporary acceleration/
deceleration
Increasing the programmed
speed

 Using button 3 "ACC RES" :
- successive presses increase the speed in steps of approximately
1 mph (1.6 km/h).
- a maintained press of this button increases the programmed speed
progressively.
Once the speed required has been
reached, release the button, the new
speed is stored.

 Using the accelerator pedal:
- accelerate to reach the speed re- quired, then press button 2 "COAST
SET" . Release the button to store
the new speed. Temporary acceleration
Press the accelerator pedal as normal.
When the pedal is released, you return
to the stored speed.
Temporary deceleration
Press the brake pedal to reduce the
speed. To return to the stored speed,
press button
3 "ACC RES" .

AUDIBLE REAR PARKING
SENSORS
It detects obstacles (person, vehicle,
tree, gate, ...) located behind the vehi-
cle, but it cannot detect obstacles locat-
ed immediately below the bumper. Activation
The parking sensors are activated by
engaging reverse gear.
The proximity information is indicated
by an audible signal which becomes
more frequent as the vehicle approaches
the obstacle.
When a certain distance between the
rear of the vehicle and the obstacle is
reached, the audible signal becomes
continuous:
An object such as a stake, a road
works cone or any other similar
object may be detected at the
beginning of the manoeuvre but
may no longer be detected when
the vehicle moves closer to it.
Location of the sensors
The vehicle is fi tted with four sensors:
- two side sensors
A
- two central sensors B . Vehicle only
Vehicle fi tted with a towbar
Detection zones
The detection zones differ depending
on whether the vehicle is fi tted with a
towbar.
If you select towbar mode, the towbar
zone
C is excluded from the detection
zones.
The parking sensor system can-
not, in any circumstances, take
the place of the need for vigi-
lance and responsibility on the
part of the driver.

Sensors

Distance between
vehicle and
obstacle less than:
Side A Approximately
25 cm
Central B
without towbar Approximately
40 cm
Central B
with towbar Approximately
60 cm
System consisting of proximity sensors
installed in the rear bumper.

CHECKS
Bonnet stay
OPENING THE BONNET
To close
Lower the bonnet and release it at the
end of its travel. Check that the bonnet
is properly latched.

From outside: move the safety catch
to the left then raise the bonnet. Secure the stay in its housing to hold
the bonnet open.
Before closing the bonnet, replace the
stay in its clip.
This operation must only be carried out
when the vehicle is stationary.
When the engine is hot, handle the ex-
terior safety catch and the bonnet stay
with care (risk of burns).

From inside: pull the release lever A ,
on the right-hand side below the door,
towards you. If you run out of fuel, fi ll the tank and op-
erate the starter until the engine starts.
Several attempts may be needed be-
fore the engine re-starts.
