AUTOMATIC AIR
CONDITIONING (DUAL ZONE)
Dual zone: this is the differentiated
regulation of the temperature and
distribution on the driver's side and
the front passenger side.
The driver and his front passenger
can each adjust the temperature and
the distribution of the air to suit their
requirements.
The symbols and messages associat-
ed with the automatic air conditioning
controls appear on the multifunction
display.
General precautions
Do not cover the temperature and
humidity sensor located to the left
of the glove box. It is used to regu-
late the air conditioning.
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes once a month to
keep it in perfect working order.
If the system does not produce cold
air, do not use it and contact your
PEUGEOT dealer.
Note: the condensation created by
the air conditioning system results
in a low of water under the vehicle
when stationary which is perfectly
normal. Control by the Auto program
Automatic

the value displayed by the tempera-
ture setting. It controls the distribu-
tion, low, temperature and intake of
air in order to guarantee comfort and
an adequate circulation of air in the
passenger compartment. You do not
have to make any adjustments.

THE ALARM
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:
if button A indicator light
lashes rapidly, the alarm has been
triggered while you were away from
your vehicle.
Note: if the alarm has been triggered
in your absence, this lashing stops
when the ignition is switched on.

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
These are two special programs.
The program selected is displayed
on the instrument panel screen.
Sport program
F Press button S once the vehicle
has been started in position D, the
auto-adaptive program favours
dynamic driving.
Snow program
This program improves starting and
drive when traction is poor.
F Press button T once the vehicle
has been started and position
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-
ing the button selected. 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.
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 in
is position P, it will be impossible to
change to another position.
In particular, do not force the lever
or there is a risk the gearbox may be
damaged.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS)
The ABS increases the stability and
manoevrability of your vehicle on
braking, in particular on poor or slip-
pery road surfaces.
This system comes into operation
automatically when there is a risk of
wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations of
the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, press very
irmly without releasing the pres-
sure.
Note:
when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are
approved.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, thus reducing
the stopping distance.
It is triggered by the speed at which
the brake pedal is activated. The
effect of this is a reduction in the re-
sistance of the pedal and an increase
in braking eficiency.
This indicates that
the ABS is faulty.
It comes on on the
instrument panel
screen also.
If it comes on permanently above
6 mph (10 km/h), it indicates an ABS
malfunction.
However, the vehicle retains conven-
tional servo-assisted braking.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
