HILL START ASSIST
System which keeps your vehicle im-
mobilised temporarily (approximately
2 seconds) when starting on a gradi-
ent, the time it takes to move your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator
pedal.
This system only operates when:
- the vehicle is completely stationary,
with your foot on the brake pedal,
- in particular conditions on a slope,
- with the driver’s door closed.
The hill start assist system cannot be
deactivated.
Operation
On an ascending slope, with the ve-
hicle stationary, the vehicle is held
for a momentarily when you release
the brake pedal:
- provided you are in fi rst gear or neu-
tral on a manual gearbox,
- provided you are in position A
or M
on an electronic gear control gear-
box,
- provided you are in position D
or M
on an automatic gearbox.
On a descending slope, with the ve-
hicle stationary and reverse gear
engaged, the vehicle is held momen-
tarily when you release the brake
pedal.
Do not exit the vehicle while
it is being held in the hill start
assist phase.
If you need to exit the vehicle
with the engine running, apply the
parking brake manually then ensure
that the parking brake warning lamp
(and the warning lamp P
in the lever
of the electric parking brake) are on
fi xed (not fl ashing).
If a fault in the system occurs, these
warning lamps come on. Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop to have the system checked.

The cruise control cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need
to observe speed limits, nor can
it replace the need for vigilance and re-
sponsibility on the part of the driver.
The cruise control is switched on
manually: it requires a minimum vehicle
speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) and the en-
gagement of:
- fourth gear on the manual gearbox,
- second gear in sequential mode on
the electronic gear control gearbox
or automatic gearbox,
- position A
on the electronic gear
control gearbox or D
on the auto-
matic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off
man-
ually or by pressing the brake or clutch
pedal or on triggering of the ESP sys-
tem for safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed
speed temporarily by pressing the
accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply release the accelerator pedal.
This information also appears
in the head-up display.
For more information, refer to
the "Head-up display" section.
System which automatically maintains
the speed of the vehicle at the value
programmed by the driver, without any
action on the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.

peration
Example:
- You are in third gear.
In the case of driving which
makes particular demands on the
performance of the engine (fi rm
pressure on the accelerator pedal, for
example, when overtaking...), the sys-
tem will not recommend a gear change.
The system never suggests:
- engaging fi rst gear,
- engaging reverse gear,
- engaging a lower gear.
- You press the accelerator pedal
moderately.
- The system may suggest that you
engage a higher gear, if appropriate.
The information appears in the form of
an arrow in the instrument panel screen.
Depending on your vehicle's equipment,
this arrow may be accompanied by the
recommended gear.
- always select neutral,
- press the clutch pedal.
Engaging reverse gear
)
Raise the ring under the knob and
move the gear lever to the left then
forwards.
System which reduces fuel consumption
by advising the driver to change up.
* According to engine.
The system intervenes only when driv-
ing economically.
Depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system
may advise you to skip one or more
gears. You can follow this instruc-
tion without engaging the intermediate
gears.
The gear recommended should not
be considered compulsory. In fact, the
confi guration of the road, the amount
of traffi c and safety remain determining
factors when choosing the best gear.
Therefore, the driver remains responsi-
ble for deciding whether or not to follow
the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
