Emergency braking
the emergency braking should only be
used in an exceptional situation.
In the event of a failure of the brake pedal or
in an exceptional situation (e.g. driver taken
ill, under instruction), 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.
th

e 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.
If the ABS and DSC systems malfunction,
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.
It only operates when:
-
t
he vehicle is completely stationary, with
your foot on the brake pedal,
-

p
articular conditions on a slope are met,
-
t

he driver’s door is closed.
th

is hill start assist system cannot be
deactivated.
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle
stationary, the vehicle is held momentarily
when you release the brake pedal. 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
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.
t

audible signal and a message appears.
F

R
eturn the selector lever to
position


P; the audible signal stops
and the message disappears. With the ignition 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 N to R
.
th

is will not cause any damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 62 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a Pe ugeOt dealer or a
qualified workshop.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. You risk damaging the gearbox:
-

i
f you press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time,
-

i
f you force the lever from position P
to another position when the
battery is flat.
to r

educe fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffic jam...), position
the selector lever at N and apply the
parking brake, unless it is programmed
in automatic mode.
