DRIVING

Automatic operation
Automatic changing of the four
gears:
F select position D in the gate.
The gearbox always selects the most
suitable gear according to the follow-
ing parameters:
- t h e r o a d p r o i l e ,
- the vehicle load.
The gearbox is then operating in
auto-adaptive mode, without any ac-
tion on your part. If you take your foot off the accel-
erator suddenly, the gearbox will not
change to a higher gear for reasons
of safety.
Manual operation
Manual
changing of the four gears :
F select position M in the gate,
F push the lever to the + sign to
change to a higher gear,
F pull the lever to the - sign to
change to a lower gear.
You can change from position D
(driving in automatic mode) to posi-
tion M (driving in manual mode) at
any time.
WARNING
Never select position N when the ve-
hicle is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless
the vehicle is stationary.
Never change between positions to op-
timise braking on a slippery surface.
Notes
For immediate maximum accelera-
tion without touching the gear lever,
press the accelerator pedal down as
far as it will go (kickdown). The gear-
box will automatically change down
or maintain the gear selected until
maximum engine speed is reached.
When the brake is applied, the gear-
box will automatically change down
i n o r d e r t o p r o v i d e e f i c i e n t e n g i n e
braking. Sport and snow programmes
In addition to the auto-adaptive pro-
gramme, there are two special pro-
grammes.
The programme is displayed on the
instrument panel screen.
Sport programme
F
Press button S once the engine
has been started.
The gearbox automatically favours
sporty driving and more dynamic ac-
celeration.
Snow programme
This programme improves starting
and drive when traction is poor.
F Press button T once the engine
has been started.
The gearbox adapts to driving on
slippery roads.
Note: you can return to the auto-
adaptive programme at any time.
F Press button S or T again to
switch off the programme you
are in. 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 au-
tomatically selects gear
M1.
Programmes S (sport) and T (snow)
do not operate in manual mode.

SPEED LIMITER
This speed limiter, of the new gener-
ation, has a display on the instrument
panel to indicate the programmed
speed.
It prevents exceeding of the vehicle
speed programmed by the driver.
When the programmed speed is
reached, pressing the accelerator
pedal no longer has any effect.
The limiter operates with a pro-
grammed speed of at least 18 mph
approx. (30 km/h); it remains active
regardless of any action on the brake
and clutch pedals.
The operating actions must be
carried out: - when stationary, with the
engine running,
or - with the vehicle moving. The indicator light on the in-
strument panel comes on at
the same time.
Instrument panel display
When the speed limiter function is
active, pressing this button displays
the distance recorders.
After a few seconds or when this but-
ton is pressed again, the display re-
turns to the speed limiter function.
Selecting the function
F
Place the dial 1 in the LIMIT
position. The limiter is not yet
active. By default, the display
indicates: Storing a speed
A speed can be stored without acti-
vating the limiter.
Press buttons
2 and 3 b r i e l y t o d e -
crease or increase by 1 mph (1 km/h).
An extended press decreases or in-
creases by 5 mph (5 km/h).
A maintained press decreases or in-
creases the programmed speed in
steps of 5 mph (5 km/h).
Activating / deactivating the
limiter
Pressing button 4 once activates the
limiter, pressing the button again de-
activates it.
When the limiter is active, the display
indicates (e.g. at 70 mph (110 km/h)):

SAFETY

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP) D i s a r m i n g t h e A S R / E S P
systems
In exceptional conditions (starting a
vehicle which is bogged down, stuck
in snow, on soft ground), it may be
advisable to disarm the ASR and
ESP systems, so that the wheels can
move freely and regain grip.
F Press the "ESP OFF" switch,
located under the steering wheel
to the left. O p e r a t i n g c h e c k
The ASR/ESP systems
offer exceptional safety
in normal driving, but this
should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer's recommen-
dations regarding wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components
and the electronic components
and the PEUGEOT assembly and
operation procedures.
After an impact, have these sys-
tems checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
O p e r a t i o n o f t h e A S R a n d E S P
systems The switch lights up and the
warning light comes on, ac-
companied by a message
on the multifunction display :
the ASR and ESP systems are dis-
armed.
T h e s e a r e t r i g g e r e d a g a i n :
F automatically if the ignition is
switched off,
F manually by pressing the switch
again. When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the switch
l i g h t l a s h e s a n d t h e w a r n i n g
light comes on.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the systems checked.
T h e w a r n i n g l i g h t l a s h e s i f
the ASR or ESP is activated.
A c t i v a t i o n o f t h e A S R a n d E S P
systems
When the ignition is on, the ASR and
ESP systems are always active.
These systems are linked and com-
plement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to
prevent the wheels skidding, by act-
ing on the brakes of the drive wheels
and on the engine. It also allows the
directional stability of the vehicle to
be improved on acceleration.
If there is a variation between the tra-
jectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESP
system automatically acts on the en-
gine and the brake of one or more
wheels, in order to put the vehicle
back on course, within the limits of
the laws of physics.

CHECKING THE LEVELS
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
A = maximum
N e v e r i l l p a s t t h i s m a r k .
B = minimum
To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission
control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil
is prohibited.
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.
Note: avoid used oil coming into
prolonged contact with the skin.
Empty the used oil into the contain-
ers intended for this purpose in the
PEUGEOT network. Brake fluid level:

manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can
operate with the ignition key removed
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by two turns to re-
lease the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.
Note:
the coolant does not need to
be changed.

on the instrument panel or the dip-
stick.

Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT
or products of equivalent
q u a l i t y a n d s p e c i i c a t i o n s .
To ensure best performance from
components as important as the
power steering and the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and

To prevent damage to the electri-
cal units, avoid washing the en-
gine.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
(DIESEL)
If you should run out of fuel, it is
necessary to re-prime the circuit:
- i l l t h e f u e l t a n k w i t h a t l e a s t i v e litres of diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual re-priming pump, until fuel
appears in the transparent pipe
under the bonnet,
- operate the starter until the engine starts.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
It may be necessary to check the
thickness of the pads, even between
services.
