"Auto sequential" mode
In automated mode, you can resume control temporarily at any time using the steering mounted control paddles. The use of these paddles permits manual selection of the gears in situations which require a more rapid change-down than in the automated mode (arrival at a roundabout, leaving a car park with a steep gradient, over taking...). The gearbox engages the required gear if the engine speed permits. AUTO remains displayed in the instrument panel. After a few moments, the gearbox resumes automatic control of the gears.
For best acceleration, when overtaking another vehicle for example, press the accelerator pedal firmly to pass the point of resistance.
Creep function * (moving
without use of the
accelerator)
This function makes manoeuvring the vehicle smoother at low speeds (when parking, in a traffic jam, …). With the engine running at idle, brakes released and A , M or R selected, the vehicle moves as soon as you take your foot of the brake pedal (even if you do not touch the accelerator pedal). For your safety, this function is activated only if you press the brake pedal while engaging for ward drive or reverse. It is deactivated on opening the driver's door. Close the door, then press the brake or accelerator pedal to reactivate the function.
Never leave children unsupervised inside the vehicle with the engine running.

Driving
Four-speed automatic gearbox which offers a choice between the comfort of fully automatic operation, enhanced by sport and snow programmes, or manual gear changing. There are therefore four driving modes: - automatic operation for electronic management of the gears by the gearbox, - sport programme for a more dynamic style of driving, - snow programme to improve driving when traction is poor, - sequential operation for manual changing of the gears by the driver.

Driving
 Apply the parking brake.  Select position P or N .  Start the engine. If this procedure is not followed, there is an audible signal, accompanied by the display of an warning message.
Moving off
When the engine is running at idle, with the brakes released, if position R , Dor M is selected, the vehicle moves even without the accelerator being pressed. When the engine is running, never leave children in the vehicle without supervision. When carrying out maintenance with the engine running, apply the parking brake and select position P . P . P
If position N is selected inadvertently while driving, allow the engine to return to idle then select position D to accelerate.
Never select position N while the vehicle is moving. Never select positions P or R unless the vehicle is completely stationary.
Automatic operation
 Select position D for automatic changing of the four gears. The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive mode, without any intervention 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 gear lever, press the accelerator pedal down fully (kick down). The gearbox changes down automatically or maintains the gear selected until the maximum engine speed is reached. On braking, the gearbox changes down automatically to provide efficient engine braking. If you release the accelerator sharply, the gearbox will not change to a higher gear for safety reasons.
Sport and snow programmes
Sport programme "S"
 Press button "S" , after starting the engine. The gearbox automatically favours a dynamic style of driving.
S appears in the instrument panel.
Snow programme "  "

Manual operation
 Select position M for sequential changing of the four gears.  Push the lever towards the + sign to change up a gear.  Pull the lever towards the - sign to change
down a gear. It is only possible to change from one gear to another if the vehicle speed and engine speed permit; otherwise, the gearbox will operate temporarily in automatic mode.
D disappears and the gears engaged appear in succession in the instrument panel.
Invalid value during manual operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear is not engaged correctly (selector between two positions).
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can engage position P or N to place the gearbox in neutral. In both cases, apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, the lighting of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the multifunction screen, indicates a gearbox fault. In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel a substantial knock when changing from Pto R and from N to R . This will not cause any damage to the gearbox. Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed restrictions permitting. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the gear selected flashes for a few seconds, then
the actual gear engaged is displayed. It is possible to change from position D(automatic) to position M (manual) at any time. When the vehicle is stationary or moving very slowly, the gearbox selects gear M1automatically. The sport and snow programmes do not operate in manual mode.
There is a risk of damage to the gearbox: - if you press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time, - if you force the movement of the gear lever from the P position to another position when the battery is flat. To reduce fuel consumption when at a prolonged standstill with the engine running (traffic jam...), put the gear lever in the N position and apply the parking brake.
If the lever is not in position P , when the P , when the Pdriver's door is opened or approximately 45 seconds after the ignition is switched off, a warning message appears in the screen.  Return the lever to position P ; the message disappears.

Speed limiter
System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the driver. When the programmed speed limit is reached, pressing the accelerator pedal in the normal manner no longer has any effect.
The speed limiter is switched on manually: the programmed speed must be at least 20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to respect speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance and responsibility on the part of the driver.
1. Selection of speed limiter mode.
Steering mounted controls
The programmed information is grouped together in the instrument panel screen. 5. Speed limiter on/off indication. 6. Speed limiter mode selection indication. 7. Programmed speed value. 8. Selection of a memorised speed setting.

 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
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: - ensure that the mat is positioned c o r r e c t l y, - do not fit one mat on top of another.
Leaving limiter mode
Operating fault
 Set the speed value by pressing button 2 or 3 . You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2 and 3 : - by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short press, - by + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press, - in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.
Exceeding the programmed speed
 Switch the speed limiter back on by pressing button 4 again.
 Switch the speed limiter on by pressing button 4 .
 Switch the speed limiter off by pressing button 4 : the display confirms that it has been switched off (PAUSE).
