If the lever is not in position P, a message
appears in the screen on opening the
driver's door or approximately 45
seconds
after switching off the ignition.
F
P
lace the lever at position P ; the
message disappears.
When driving on flooded roads or when
crossing a ford, proceed at walking pace.
When the ignition is on, the lighting
of this warning lamp, associated with
an audible signal and a message
on the 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 P
to 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. There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:
F
i f you press the accelerator and brake
pedals at the same time,
F
i
f you force the movement of the lever
from position P to another position with
a flat battery.
To reduce fuel consumption during
prolonged stops with the engine running
(traffic jams, etc.), position the gear lever
at N and apply the parking brake.Gear shift indicator
(Depending on engine.)
This system reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one (or more) gear(s). You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
Gearshift 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.
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 with 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 shift
recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the
driver’s requirements (power, acceleration,
b r a k i n g , e t c .) .
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
gear recommended.Hill start assist
System that holds your vehicle for around
2
seconds, the time to move your foot from the
brake pedal to the accelerator.
The hill start assist function cannot be
deactivated. However, use of the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts
its function.
The information appears on the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow.
Uphill, with the vehicle stationar y, it will
briefly stop the vehicle from rolling back
when you release the brake pedal.
With an electronic gearbox, if you are in
position A.
With an automatic gearbox, if you are in D .

-
w
ith the driver’s door closed.
Downhill, with the vehicle stationary and
reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held
for a shor t time when you release the brake
pedal.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily by hill start assist.
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.
Operating fault
The fixed illumination of these
warning lamps indicates a fault with
the system.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Stop & Start
The system puts the engine temporarily into
standby – STOP mode – during stops in the
traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.). The engine
restarts automatically – START mode – as
soon as you wish to leave again. Restarting
occurs instantaneously, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.
