tial mode.

The "2 Tronic" gearbox is a controlled
manual gearbox which does not have
a clutch pedal.
Do not use the accelerator pedal to
immobilise the vehicle on a slope,
apply the handbrake instead.
When starting on a slope, accelerate
gradually while releasing the hand-
brake.
Moving off
Select position N . Switching to sequential mode
Once you have moved off, you can
switch to sequential mode by selecting
position
M .
"AUTO" disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succession on
the instrument panel display.
The gear change requests are only
carried out if the engine speed per-
mits it.
Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal gently to engage the gear.
At low speeds, when approaching a

Switching to automated mode Reinitialisation
Following disconnection of the battery,
the gearbox must be reinitialised: The brake pedal must be
pressed while starting the
engine.
Never select neutral
N while
the vehicle is moving.
Only engage reverse gear R with the
vehicle immobilised and the brake
pedal pressed.
In all cases, it is imperative that you
apply the handbrake in order to im-
mobilise the vehicle.
On a steep gradient, it is preferable
to switch to sequential mode.
"Auto sequential" mode
In the automated mode, you can re-
sume control temporarily at any time
using the steering wheel controls.
The use of these controls permits
manual selection of the gears in situa-
tions which require a faster change-
down than that offered in automated
m o d e ( a r r i v a l a t a r o u n d a b o u t , e x i t
from a car park with a steep gradient,
overtaking...).
The gearbox engages the gear
requested if the engine speed
permits it.
"AUTO" is still displayed
on the instrument panel.
After a few moments, the gearbox
again controls the gears automatically.
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you
can:
- move to position N to leave the
gearbox in neutral.
- leave a gear engaged, such as fi r s t o r r e v e r s e .
In both cases, it is imperative that you
apply the handbrake to immobilise
the vehicle. Operating anomaly
W i t h t h e i g n i t i o n o n , t h e fl a s h i n g o f
"AUTO" and lighting of the service
warning light, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message on the
multifunction display, indicate a gear-
box malfunction.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer without
delay.
If you press the accelera-
tor pedal beyond the point
of resistance, the gearbox
selects the gear below to
permit sharper acceleration. - switch on the ignition,
"AUTO"
and "-" appear on the instrument
panel display,
- press the brake pedal,
- wait approximately 30 seconds until "N" or a gear appears on
the instrument panel display,
- release the brake pedal.
The gearbox is operational again.
Automated mode
After using the sequential mode, you
can return to the automated mode by
selecting position
A .
"AUTO" and the gear engaged ap-
pear on the instrument panel display.
The gearbox then operates in auto-
active mode, without any action on
the part of the driver.
It continuously selects the gear most
suited to the following parameters:
- driving style,
- road characteristics,
- vehicle load.
To optimise driving comfort and ob-
tain the most suitable gear, avoid
sharp variations in the pressure on
the accelerator pedal.
