Wait until this warning lamp goes off
in the instrument panel then operate
the starter motor by turning the key
to position 3 without pressing the
accelerator pedal until the engine
starts. Once the engine is running,
release the key.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can
stay on for a
longer period. If the engine is
hot, the warning lamp does not come on.
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition. Wait a
few moments
before operating the starter motor again.
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, do not keep trying: you risk
damaging the starter motor or the engine.
Contact the dealer network or a
qualified
workshop.
In temperate conditions, do not leave
the engine at idle to warm up but move
off straight away and drive at moderate
speed. Never run the engine in an enclosed
space without sufficient ventilation:
internal combustion engines give out toxic
exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide.
There is a danger of poisoning and
death. In very severe wintry conditions
(temperatures below -23°C) and to ensure
proper operation and longevity of the
mechanical parts of your vehicle, engine
and gearbox, you must let the engine run
for 4
minutes before starting the vehicle.

heck that the parking brake is correctly
applied, particularly on sloping ground. Never switch off the ignition before the
vehicle is at a
complete stop. With the
engine off, the braking and steering
assistance systems are also deactivated:
risk of loss of control of the vehicle.
When you leave the vehicle, keep the key
with you and lock the vehicle.
Energy economy mode
After switching off the engine
(position 1 - Stop), for a
maximum of thirty
minutes you can still use functions such as the
audio and telematic system, wipers, dipped
beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc.

If the temperature is below -23°C, the
engine should be left at idle for four
minutes, to ensure the correct operation
and life of the engine and gearbox.
When the engine is running at idle, with
the brakes released, if position R, D or M
is selected, the vehicle moves even
without the accelerator being pressed.
Do not leave children unsuper vised inside
the vehicle when the engine is running.
When carrying out maintenance with the
engine running, apply the parking brake
and select position P .
Automatic operation
F Select position D to change the six gears
automatically . The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any inter vention on the part
of the driver. It continuously selects the most
suitable gear according to the style of driving,
the profile of the road and the load in the
vehicle.
For maximum acceleration without touching
the selector, press the accelerator fully down
(kick-down). The gearbox changes down
automatically or holds the gear selected until
the maximum engine speed is reached.
On braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically to provide effective engine
braking.
If you release the accelerator sharply, the
gearbox will not shift to a
higher gear for safety
reasons.
Never select position N while the vehicle
is moving.
Never select position P or R unless the
vehicle is completely stationary.
Reverse
When selecting reverse R with the ignition
on, the rear parking sensors are activated
automatically.
Creep function (moving without
using the accelerator)
This function facilitates manoeuvring of the
vehicle at low speed (when parking, in traffic
jams, etc.).
With the engine at idle, parking brake released
and position D , M or R selected, the vehicle
moves as soon as you take your foot off
the brake pedal (even without pressing the
accelerator).
For your safety, this function will be activated
only if you press the brake pedal when
changing from forward drive to reverse.
It is deactivated on opening the driver's door.
Closing the door then pressing the brake or
accelerator pedal, reactivates the function.
Manual operation
F Select position M for sequential changing
of the six gears.
F
M
ove the selector towards the + sign to
change up a

If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox,
never try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle. For more information on Parking assistance
,
refer to the corresponding section.

With an electronic or automatic gearbox,
the system is only active in manual mode.
On BlueHDi Diesel versions with manual
gearbox, in certain driving conditions the
system may suggest changing into neutral so
that the engine can go into standby (STOP
mode of Stop & Start). In this case, N is
displayed in the instrument panel.
Example:
-
Y
ou are in third gear.
-
Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.
-
T
he system may suggest that you engage
a
higher gear. The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (slope, load, etc.)
and the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking, etc.).
The system never suggests:
-
e
ngaging first gear,
-
enga
ging reverse gear.
-
enga
ging a
lower gear.
On vehicle fitted with a
manual gearbox,
the arrow may be accompanied by the
recommended gear.
Gear shift recommendations should not be
considered obligatory. The configuration of the
road, the amount of traffic and safety remain
determining factors when choosing the best
gear. The driver thus remains responsible
for deciding whether to follow or ignore the
system's instructions.
This function cannot be deactivated.
The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow.
Hill start assist
This system briefly keeps your vehicle
stationary (for approximately 2 seconds) when
making a
hill start, while you transfer your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
It is only active when:
-
t
he vehicle is completely stationary, with
your foot on the brake pedal,
-
c
ertain slope conditions are met,
-
t
he driver's door is closed.
The hill start assist system cannot be
deactivated.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily in the hill start assist
phase.
If you need to leave the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the parking brake
manually then ensure that the parking
brake warning lamp lights up constantly on
the instrument panel.

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.

Parking assistance
This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
entering the detection range of the sensors
located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (post, roadworks
cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer
be detected at the end of the manoeuvre, if
they are located in blind spots in the sensors'
detection range.
This system cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
g e a r.
This is confirmed by an audible signal.
Audible assistanceVisual assistance
(Depending on version.)
Front parking sensors
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous. This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the screen which move
progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed in the screen.
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of
the vehicle remains below 6
mph (10 km/h).
The system is switched off when you shift out
of reverse gear.
