Emergency braking
In the event of a failure of the main service brake or in an exceptional situation (e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction, etc) a continuous pull on the control lever will brake the vehicle. Braking takes place while the control lever is being pulled. It is interrupted if the control lever is released. The ABS and DSC systems provide stability of the vehicle during emergency braking. If the emergency braking malfunctions, the message "Parking brake control faulty" will be displayed.
The emergency braking should only be used in an exceptional situation.
Repeat this procedure to reactivate automatic operation. Reactivation of automatic operation is confirmed by the indicator lamp in the instrument panel going off.
Deactivating automatic operation
In some situations, such as very cold weather or towing (caravan, recovery), it may be necessary to deactivate automatic operation of the system.  Start the engine.  Apply the parking brake with the control
lever, if it is released.  Take your foot off the brake pedal.  Push and hold the control lever in the release direction for at least 10 seconds and no more than 15 seconds.  Release the control lever.  Press and hold the brake pedal.  Pull the control lever in the apply direction for 2 seconds.
Deactivation of the automatic functions is confirmed by illumination of this indicator lamp in the instrument panel.
 Release the control lever and the brake pedal.
From this point the parking brake can only be applied and released manually using the control lever.
If a failure of the ABS and DSC systems, signalled by the illumination of one or both warning lamps in the instrument panel, then stability of the vehicle is no longer guaranteed. In this event, stability must be assured by the driver by repeating alternate “pull-release” actions on the control lever until the vehicle is
immobilised.

Hill start assist
System which keeps your vehicle immobilised temporarily (approximately 2 seconds) when starting on a gradient, the time it takes to move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal. This system is either not available or is standard. It only operates when: - the vehicle is completely stationary, with your foot on the brake pedal, - particular conditions on a slope are met, - with the driver’s door closed. This hill start assist system cannot be deactivated.
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle stationary, the vehicle is held for a momentarily when you release the brake pedal: - if you are in first gear or neutral with a manual gearbox, - if you are in position D or M with an automatic gearbox.
Operation
On a descending slope, with the vehicle stationary and reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held momentarily when you release the brake pedal.
Operating fault
If a fault in the system occurs, this warning lamp comes on accompanied by a message. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being held in the hill start assist phase. If you need to get out of the vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake manually then ensure that the parking brake indicator lamp (and the P indicator lamp in the electric parking brake control lever) are on fixed (not flashing).

Automatic operation
 Select position D for automatic changing of the six 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 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.
Never select position N while the vehicle is moving. Never select positions P or R unless the vehicle is completely stationary.
Sport and snow programmes
These two special programmes supplement the automatic operation in very specific conditions of use.
Sport "S"
 Press the "S" switch, after starting the engine. The gearbox automatically favours a dynamic style of driving.
S appears in the instrument panel.
Snow "  "
 Press the "  " switch, after starting the engine. The gearbox adapts to driving on slippery roads. This programme improves starting and drive when traction is poor.
 appears in the instrument panel.
Return to automatic operation
 At any time, press the button selected (S or "  ") again at any time to quit the programme engaged and return to auto-adaptive mode.
Creep function (moving
without using the
accelerator)
This function provides great flexibility in manoeuvring the vehicle at low speed (when parking, in traffic jams, …). With the engine at idle, parking brake released and position D , M or R selected, the vehicle moves as soon as you take your foot off the brake pedal (even without pressing the accelerator). For your safety, this function will be activated only if you press the brake pedal when changing from for ward drive to reverse. It is deactivated on opening the driver's door. Closing the door then pressing the brake or accelerator pedal, reactivates the function.
Never leave children inside the vehicle without supervision when the engine is running.
If you vehicle is equipped with the "Dynamic function", refer to the section covering this, which is part of sport mode.

 Select position M for sequential changing of the six gears.  Pull the lever towards the + sign to change up a gear.  Push 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.
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.
Manual operation
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, unless it is programmed
to automatic mode.
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, there is an audible signal and a message appears.  Return the lever to position P ; the audible signal stops and the message disappears.
When the ignition is on, a message appears in the instrument panel screen to indicate a gearbox fault.
Operating 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 R and from RN to R . R . RThis will not cause any damage to the gearbox. Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed restrictions permitting. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
You risk damaging the gearbox: - if you press the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time, - if you force the lever from position Pto another position when the battery is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when stationary for long periods with the engine running (traffic jam...), position
the gear lever at N and apply the parking brake, unless it is programmed in automatic mode.

Dynamic function
In sport mode (with an automatic gearbox), this function conditions: - the visual ambience, with specific back-lighting for the instrument panel, - the acoustic ambience of the engine, - power assistance for the steering, - acceleration, - the automatic gearbox, - information to the driver in the instrument panel on dynamic settings.
This function is only available when Park Assist is not selected and snow mode in the automatic gearbox is not selected. If Park Assist is switched on, this automatically deactivates the function.
Activation
 Press the end of the wiper control stalk to display in the instrument panel the different information on dynamic settings.
The telemetry data (longitudinal and lateral acceleration, power produced, turbocharger pressure, ...) are given as an indication only.
 Press nd hold the button until the back-lighting in the instrument panel changes. The LED in the button stays on.
Display
 Press repeatedly to go from one screen to another.
If the LED flashes, activation is not possible (for example if Park Assist or snow mode is selected) and so the back-lighting returns to its normal mode. If the LED continues flashing for a long time, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Stop & Start
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel and the engine goes into standby automatically:
- With a manual gearbox , at speeds below 12 mph (20 km/h) or vehicle stationary (depending on the engine), when you place the gear lever in neutral, and you release the clutch pedal.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the button.
For your comfort, during parking maoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear. STOP mode does not affect the functionality of the vehicle, such as for example, braking, power steering...
Special cases: STOP mode not available
STOP mode is not invoked principally when: - the vehicle is on a steep slope (up or d ow n), - the driver's door is open, - the driver's seat belt is not fastened, - the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10 km/h) since the last engine start by the driver, - the electric parking brake is applied or being applied, - the engine is needed to maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment,
- demisting is active, - some special conditions (battery charge, engine temperature, braking assistance, ambient temperature...) where the engine is needed to assure control of a system.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time counter calculates the time spent in STOP mode during a journey.
In this case, the "ECO" warning lamp flashes for a few seconds then goes of f. This operation is perfectly normal.
The Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...). The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, 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.
Stop & Start time counter
(minutes / seconds or hours / minutes)
- With an automatic gearbox , vehicle stationary, when you press the brake pedal or place the gear selector lever in position N .
It resets to zero every time the ignition is switched on.
