Five-speed electronically controlled gearbox
which offers a choice between the comfort of
automatic operation or the pleasure of manual
gear changing.
Three driving modes are offered:
-
a
utomated mode for automatic control
of the gears by the gearbox, without ant
action by the driver.
-

m
anual mode for sequential changing of
the gears by the driver, using the gear lever
or the steering mounted control paddles
-

a
uto sequential mode for overtaking, for
example, remaining in the automated mode
while using the functions of the sequential
mode.

F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the "LIMIT"
position: the speed limiter mode is
selected but is not switched
on (PAUS E).
You do not have to switch the speed limiter
on in order to set the speed.
Programming
Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the programmed speed will not have
any effect unless you press the pedal firmly past the point of resistance.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the programmed speed,
which is still displayed, flashes.
Returning to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or unintentional
deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of the
programmed speed.
Leaving limiter mode
F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the "0" position:
the speed limiter mode is deselected. The
display returns to the distance recorder.
Operating fault
F Set the speed value by pressing button 2 or 3 .
You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2 and 3 :
-

b
y + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short press,
-

b
y + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press,
-

i
n steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.
Exceeding the programmed speed
F Switch the speed limiter back on by pressing button 4 again.
F

S
witch the speed limiter on by pressing button 4
.
F
S
witch the speed limiter off by pressing button 4
: the display
confirms that it has been switched off (PAUSE). In the event of a speed limiter fault, the speed
is cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, 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 the mat is positioned
c o r r e c t l y,
-

d
o not fit one mat on top of another.

F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the "CRUISE"
position: the cruise control mode is
selected but is not switched
on (PAUS E).
Programming
You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2 and 3 :
- b y + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short press,
-

b
y + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press,
-

i
n steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.
Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the programmed speed
results in flashing of this speed in the screen.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or
unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the
flashing of the speed. When the cruise control is switched on,
be careful if you maintain the pressure
on one of the programmed speed
changing buttons: this may result in
a very rapid change in the speed of
your


vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on
slippery roads or in heavy traffic.
On a steep descent, the cruise control
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 the mat is positioned
c o r r e c t l y,
-

n
ever fit one mat on top of another.
Operating fault
Leaving cruise control mode
F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the "0" position: the cruise control mode is

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking, detecting a parking space then controlling the steering to park in the space.
It controls the steering while the driver manages the accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch (manual gearbox). During phases of entry into and exit from
a parking space, the system provides visual and audible information to the driver in order to make the manoeuvre safe. It may be necessary to move
forwards and backwards more than once.The Park Assist system cannot in any
circumstances replace the care and
responsibility of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of
their vehicle ensuring that the space
remains clear during the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors
may not detect small obstacles located
in their blind spots.
Changing tyre sizes (out-size tyres,
winter tyres, ...) can inter fere with
the correct operation of the parking
assistance system.
During a manoeuvre the steering wheel
turns quickly: do not hold the steering
wheel, do not place your hand between
the spokes of the steering wheel and
take care with loose and bulky clothing,
scarves, handbags... There is a risk of
injury. For entry into a parking space (parallel
parking) the system does not detect
spaces which are clearly much smaller
or larger than the size of the vehicle.
This "parking assistance" system
is activated automatically during
manoeuvres; it is therefore possible
that a symbol comes on in the screen,
accompanied by an audible signal,
without affecting the manoeuvre.
The system provides assistance in entering and
exiting a parking space when parallel parking. The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.
The selection of the type of manoeuvre
(entering or exiting a parallel parking
space) prevents a change to STOP
mode of Stop & Start.
In STOP mode, this selection restarts
the engine.

In bad weather and in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered by
road dirt, ice or snow.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the system is deactivated during a
manoeuvre, the drive should reactivate
it manually to repeat the measurement. If the lateral distance between your vehicle
and the space is too great, the system may
not be able to measure the space.
Anything projecting beyond the envelope
of the vehicle (long or wide load) is not
taken into account by the Park Assist
system during a manoeuvre.
Deactivation
A message is displayed in the screen.
The driver then takes back control of the
vehicle's steering.
The system is deactivated automatically:
-
o
n switching off the ignition,
-

i

f the engine stalls,
-

i

f no manoeuvre is started within 5 minutes
of selection of the type of manoeuvre,
-

a

hen the driver interrupts movement of the
steering wheel,
-

i

f the driver presses the Park Assist
