This provides two types of surveil-
lance:
- exterior protection: it sounds if
a door, the boot or the bonnet is
opened.
- interior protection: it sounds if the
volume inside the passenger compart-
ment changes (breaking of a window
or a movement inside the vehicle). When the alarm is triggered, the
siren sounds and the direction indi-
cator lights lash for approximately
thirty seconds.
After triggering, the alarm remains
set, ten times in succession.
On the eleventh time it will become
inactive again, until the next cycle of
disarming then setting of the alarm.
Warning:

The auto-adaptive program
F
select position D in the gate: the
gearbox operates in auto-adap-
tive mode, without any action on
your part, taking into account the
following parameters:
- the style of driving,
- the proile of the road,
- the vehicle load.
To obtain maximum acceleration
without touching the lever, press the
accelerator down fully (kick down).
The program will change down au-
tomatically or will stay in the gear
selected until the maximum engine
speed is reached.
When the brake is applied, the
program will change down auto-
matically in order to provide eficient
engine braking.
Note:
Releasing the accelerator sharply
does not have any immediate effect
on the speed of the vehicle.
WARNING
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
surface.
Sport and Snow programs

D has been selected, the auto-
adaptive program adjusts the
performance of the vehicle to the
condition of the slippery road.
You can deactivate the Sport or
Snow program at any time by press-

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.
When the vehicle is stationary or
moving very slowly, the gearbox
automatically selects gear
M1.
Programs S (sport) and T (snow) do
not operate in manual gear selection
mode.
Any operating abnormality is
indicated by lighting of this
warning light, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message on the multi-function dis-
play.
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) or
keep within local speed limits.
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
