Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the
instrument panel then operate the starter
motor by turning the key to position 3
without pressing the accelerator pedal,

running, release the key.
Starting the engine
In certain cases, you may have to apply
more force to the steering (wheels on
full lock, for example).

ith a petrol engine, operate the starter
motor by turning the key to position 3
without pressing the accelerator pedal,
until the engine starts. Once the engine is
running, release the key.
F

W

ith a Diesel engine, turn the key to
position 2 , ignition on, to operate the
engine pre-heating system. If the engine does not start straight
away, switch off the ignition. Wait a
few moments before operating the
starter motor again. If the engine does
not start after several attempts, do not
keep trying: you risk damaging the
starter motor or the engine. Contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp
can stay on for a longer period. When
the engine is hot, the warning lamp
does not come on.

In temperate conditions, do not leave
the engine at idle to warm up but move
off straight away and drive at moderate
speed.Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion
engines emit toxic exhaust gases,
such as carbon monoxide. Danger of
intoxication and death.
In very severe wintry conditions
(temperatures below -23°C), to ensure
the correct operation and durability of
the mechanical components of your
vehicle, engine and gearbox, it is
necessary to leave the engine running
for 4 minutes before moving off.

Automatic application,
engine off
With the vehicle stationary, the parking brake
is automatically applied when the engine is
switched off.
Maximum application is essential:
-

i

n the case of a vehicle towing a caravan
or a trailer, if the automatic functions are
activated but you are applying the parking
brake manually,
-

w

hen the gradient you are parked on is
variable in its effect (e.g. on a ferry, in a
lorry, during towing). -

i
llumination of the parking brake
applied indicator lamp,
-

d
isplay of the "Parking brake applied"
message.
The characteristic noise of operation confirms
the application of the electric parking brake. The application of the parking brake is
confirmed by:
-

i
llumination of the P indicator
lamp in the control lever A ,
Before leaving the vehicle, check that
parking brake indicator lamp is on in the
instrument panel.
Never leave a child alone inside the
vehicle with the ignition on, as they
could release the parking brake.
In the case of towing, a loaded vehicle
or parking on a gradient, turn the front
wheels towards the pavement and
engage a gear when you park.
When stationary, with the engine running, do
not press the accelerator pedal unnecessarily,
as you may release the parking brake.
In the case of towing, a loaded vehicle
or parking on a gradient, make a
maximum application of the parking
brake then turn the front wheels
towards the pavement and engage a
gear when you park.
After a maximum application, the
release time will be longer.
Maximum application
If necessary, you can make a maximum
application of the parking brake. It is obtained
by means of a long pull on the control lever
A,
until you see the message "Parking brake
applied" and a beep is heard.
Full release of the parking brake is
confirmed

-

s
econd gear in manual mode on an
electronic or automatic gearbox,
-

on an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off manually
or by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on
triggering of the DSC/ASR systems 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. 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.
The cruise control cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to observe
speed limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.This information also appears in the
head-up display.

The Stop & Start system puts the engine
t emporarily 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.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO" indicator lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:
-

w

ith a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h), or vehicle stationary
with PureTech 130 and BlueHDi 115 and
120 versions, when you put the gear lever
into neutral and release the clutch pedal,
-

w

ith an electronic gearbox , at speeds
below 5 mph (8 km/h), when you press the
brake pedal or you put the gear selector in
position N ,
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- t
he driver's door is open,
-

t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-

t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10
km/h) since the last engine start using
t h e key,
-

t
he vehicle is stopped on a steep slope
(up
or down),
-

t
he electric parking brake is applied or
being applied,
-

t
he engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
-
d

emisting is active,
-
s

ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO" indicator
lamp flashes for a few seconds then
goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key. 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...
Stop & Start
- with an automatic gearbox, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or you put the gear selector in position N .
If your vehicle is fitted with the system,
a time counter calculates the sum of the
periods in STOP mode during a journey.
It rests itself to zero every time the
ignition is switched on with the key.
