Starting-switching off the
engine
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has
a secret code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised to enable
engine start.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks the
engine management system a
moment after
the ignition is switched off, and prevents
unauthorised engine starting.
In the event of a
fault, you are
informed by the illumination of this
warning lamp, an audible signal and
a
message in the screen.
In this case, your vehicle will not start; contact
the dealer network as soon as possible.
Keep safely, away from your vehicle, the
label attached to the keys given to you
when you purchased your vehicle.
Ignition switch
Ignition on position
It allows the use of the vehicle's electric
equipment or portable devices to be charged.
Once the state of charge of the battery drops
to the reser ve level, the system switches to
energy economy mode: the power supply is
cut off automatically to preser ve the remaining
battery charge.
Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key
or the remote control, which would weigh
down on its blade in the ignition switch
and could cause a
malfunction.

F Pull the parking brake lever up gently, press the release button then lower the lever fully.
When the vehicle is being driven, if this
warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp
come on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a
message on the multifunction
screen, this indicates that the parking brake
is still on or has not been fully released.
Never leave a child alone inside the
v ehicle with the ignition on, as they could
release the parking brake. When parking on a
slope, direct your
wheels against the kerb, apply the parking
brake and engage a
gear.
6-speed manual gearbox
Engaging 5th or 6th gear
F Move the lever fully to the right to engage 5th
or 6th g e a r.
Failure to follow this advice could cause
permanent damage to the gearbox
(inadvertent engagement of 3
rd or 4th
gear).
Engaging reverse gear
F Raise the ring under the knob and move the gear lever to the left then for wards.
Only engage reverse gear when the vehicle
is stationary with the engine at idle.
As a
safety precaution and to facilitate
starting the engine:
-
a
lways select neutral,
-
p
ress the clutch pedal.
F
P
ull the parking brake lever fully up to
immobilise your vehicle.
Electronic gearbox (ETG)
Five-speed or six-speed electronically
controlled gearbox which offers a choice
between the comfort of automated operation or
the pleasure of manual gear changing.
Two driving modes are available:
-
a
utomatic mode for automatic control of
the gears by the gearbox, without any action
by the driver,
-
man
ual mode for sequential changing
of the gears by the driver, using the gear
selector or the steering mounted control
paddles.
With automated mode, you can temporarily
take control of gear changes at any time, using
the steering mounted control paddles.

never try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.
Creep function (depending on
equipment)
This function facilitates manoeuvring of the
vehicle at low speed (when parking, in traffic
jams, etc.).
With the gear selector in position A , M or R,
the vehicle moves as soon as you take your
foot off the brake pedal , at low speed and
with the engine at idle.
Automatic mode
F Select position A .
The instrument panel displays
AUTO along with the gear engaged.
The gearbox then operates in auto-active
mode, without any inter vention on the part
of the driver. It continuously selects the most
suitable gear according to the following
parameters:
-
f
uel consumption optimisation,
-
t
he style of driving,
-
r
oad conditions,
-
v
ehicle load.
For optimum acceleration, when overtaking
another vehicle for example, press the

Operating fault
If a fault occurs with the system,
t hese warning lamps come on.
Contact the dealer network or
a
qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.). The
engine restarts automatically – START mode –
as soon as you want to move off.
The restart takes place instantly, quickly and
silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.
Going into engine STOP
mode
The " ECO" warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:
-
w
ith a
manual gearbox , at speeds below
12
mph (20 km/h) (depending on version),
when you place the gear lever in neutral and
you release the clutch pedal.
-
w
ith a
5-speed or 6-speed electronic
gearbox , vehicle stationary or at speeds
below 5
mph (8 km/h) (depending on
version), when you press the brake pedal or
place the gear selector into position N .
-
w
ith an automatic gearbox , vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or put the gear selector in position N .
A time counter adds up the time
periods spent in STOP mode
during a
journey. It resets every
time the ignition is switched on
using the key.
Uphill, with the vehicle stationar y, the
vehicle is held for a shor t time when you
release the brake pedal.
With a
manual gearbox, if you are in first gear
or in neutral.
With an automatic gearbox, if you are in D or M .
With an electronic gearbox, if you are in
automatic mode (position A ) or in manual mode
(position M ). Downhill, with the vehicle stationary and
reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held
for a
shor t time when you release the brake
pedal.

For your convenience during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
The Stop & Start system does not affect
the functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering, etc.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
using the key.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- t he driver's door is open,
-
t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-
t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10
km/h) since the last engine start using
t h e key,
-
t
he engine is needed to maintain
a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
-
d
emisting is active,
-
s
ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
exterior temperature, etc.) are present
where the engine is needed to control the
system. The ECO warning lamp flashes for
a
few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Invoking engine START mode
The " ECO" warning lamp goes off
and the engine starts:
-
w
ith a
manual gearbox , when you depress
the clutch pedal,
-
w
ith an electronic or automatic gearbox :
•
g
ear selector in position A/D or M, when
you release the brake pedal,
•
o
r gear selector in position N and the
brake pedal released, when you move the
gear selector to position A/D or M,
•
o
r when you engage reverse.
With a
manual gearbox in STOP mode, if
a
gear is engaged without fully depressing
the clutch pedal, a warning lamp comes
on or an alert message is displayed asking
you to depress the clutch pedal to restart
the engine.
Special cases: START mode
invoked automatically
As a safety measure or to maintain comfort
l evels in the vehicle, START mode is invoked
automatically when:
-
y
ou open the driver's door,
-
y
ou unfasten the driver's seat belt,
-
t
he speed of the vehicle exceeds 7 mph
(11
km/h) with an electronic gearbox,
-
s
ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance, air
conditioning setting, etc.) are present where
the engine is needed for control of the
system or vehicle.
The ECO warning lamp flashes for
a
few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Manual deactivation/
reactivation
In certain circumstances, such as the need
to maintain the temperature in the passenger
compartment, it may be useful to deactivate the
Stop & Start system.
The system can be deactivated at any time,
once the ignition is switched on.

Exceeding programmed
speed
F Press firmly on the accelerator pedal,
going beyond the point of resistance, to
exceed the programmed speed limit.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the programmed speed, which is still
displayed, flashes.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of
intentional or unintentional deceleration of the
vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of
the speed.
Exiting speed limiter mode
F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the 0 position: the
speed limiter mode is deselected. The
display returns to the total mileage recorder.
Malfunction
In the event of a speed limiter fault, the speed
i s cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes. On sharp acceleration, as when
descending a
steep hill, the speed limiter
will not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
e
nsure that mats are secured correctly,
-
n
ever place one mat on top of another.
Have it checked in the dealer network or by
a
qualified workshop.
Cruise control
System which automatically
maintains the speed of the vehicle
at the value programmed by the
driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is switched off
manually or
by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on
triggering of the trajectory control systems for
safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by depressing the accelerator
pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed setting.
Cruise control cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need to respect speed limits, nor can it replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Steering mounted controls
The cruise control is switched on manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40
km/h).
As well as the engagement:
-
O
f fourth gear on a manual gearbox.
-
I
n sequential mode, of second gear on an
electronic or automatic gearbox.
-

Operation
- the braking assistance systems (ABS, EBFD, EBA) are not faulty.
-
t
he trajectory control systems (ASR, DSC)
are not deactivated or faulty,
-
t
he vehicle is not making a sharp turn,
-
t
he system has not triggered in the last ten
seconds.
When your vehicle is too close to or
approaches the vehicle ahead too quickly, the
system automatically applies the brakes to
avoid a
collision.
You are then warned by the display of
a
message.
The brake lamps of your vehicle are lit to warn
other users.
The collision can be avoided if the speed
difference between your vehicle and the one
ahead is not more than 9
mph (15 km/h).
Above this threshold, the system will do
what is possible to avoid or reduce the
accident by lowering the speed of impact.
The automatic braking can lead to the complete
stop of the vehicle if the situation requires it. In this case, the vehicle is held stationary
temporarily (for about 1.5
seconds) to allow
the driver to take back control by pressing the
brake pedal.
Unless the driver depresses the clutch
pedal quickly enough during automatic
braking, triggering of the system may
cause the engine to stall.
During automatic braking, the driver can
always obtain a
higher rate of deceleration
than that controlled by the system, by
pressing firmly on the brake pedal.
After an impact, the system is
automatically put out of ser vice: it no
longer operates.
You must go to a
member of the dealer
network or a
qualified workshop to have
the system made operational again.Deactivation
The system is deactivated in the vehicle
configuration menu, accessible with the ignition on.
Its state is memorised when the ignition is switched
