FAMILIARISATION
Directional lighting
This lighting automatically provides ad-
ditional visibility when cornering. Retractable roof
This equipment changes from the "coupé"
confi guration to the "cabriolet" confi gura-
tion and vice versa with a single action.
Windstop
In the "cabriolet" confi guration,
this comfort system reduces
air swirl at the front seats.
EXTERIOR
Temporary puncture repair
kit
This kit is a complete system,
comprising a compressor and
a sealant cartridge, for the
temporary repair of a tyre.
Stop & Start
This system puts the engine temporar-
ily into standby during stops in the traf-
fi c (red lights, traffi c jams, etc., ...). The
engine restarts automatically as soon
as you want to move off. The Stop &
Start system reduces fuel consumption,
exhaust emissions and the noise level
when stationary.

ECO-DRIVING
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to \
optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up
without waiting. During acceleration change up early.
With an automatic or electronic gearbox, give preference to
automatic mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The gear shift indicator invites you engage the most suitable
gear: as soon as the indication is displayed in the instru-
ment panel, follow it straight away.
For vehicles fi tted with an electronic or automatic gearbox,
this indicator appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine
braking rather than the brake pedal, and press the accel-
erator progressively. These practices contribute towards a
reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions and also
helps reduce the background traffi c noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at
speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffi c is fl owing
well.
Control the use of your electrical equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too
warm, ventilate it by opening the windows and air vents
b efore using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the
air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the
temperature in the passenger compartment down (s unroof
and window blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regu-
lation, as soon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not
a utomatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps when the level
of light does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off, particularly in
winter; your vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia
devices (fi lm, music, video game...), you will contribute
t owards limiting the consumption of electrical energy, and
so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.

20
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest
items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the
rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resis-
tance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a
roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refi t your sum-
mer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to
the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or
caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil fi lter,
air fi lter, passenger compartment fi lter...) and observe the
schedule of operations recommended in the warranty and
maintenance record.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the
nozzle to avoid any overfl ow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the fi rst
1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel
c onsumption settle down to a consistent average.

MONITORING

Trip computer, a few definitions
When the range falls below 20 miles
(30 km), dashes are displayed. After fi ll-
ing with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range
is recalculated and is displayed when it
exceeds 60 miles (100 km). If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
This value may vary following a
change in the style of driving or
the relief, resulting in a signifi cant
change in the current fuel con-
sumption. Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still
be travelled with the fuel re-
maining in the tank (related to the aver-
age fuel consumption over the last few
miles (kilometres) travelled). Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated over the last few
seconds.

DRIVING
Return to automatic operation
 At any time, press the button select-ed again to quit the programme en-
gaged and return to auto-adaptive
mode.
Manual operation
 Select position M for sequential
changing of the six gears.
 Push the lever towards the + sign to
change up a gear.
 Pull 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 au-
tomatic mode.
M and the gears engaged
manually appear in succes-
sion in the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low or too
high, the gear selected fl ashes 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 mov-
ing very slowly, the gearbox selects
gear M1 automatically.
The sport and snow programmes do not
operate in manual mode. Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a
gear is not engaged correctly
(selector between two posi-
tions).
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.
Operating fault
There is a risk of damage to the
gearbox:
- if you press the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time,
- if you force the lever from posi- tion P to another position when
the battery is fl at.
To reduce fuel consumption during
a long period stationary with the
engine running (traffi c jam, etc.),
place the gear lever in position N
and apply the parking brake.
If the lever is not in position
P ,
when the driver's door is opened
or approximately 45 seconds after
the ignition is switched off, there is
an audible signal is heard accom-
panied by a message.
 Return the lever to position P ;
the audible signal stops and the
message disappears. When the ignition is on, the il-
lumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen, indicates a gearbox malfunction.
In this case, the gearbox switches
to emergency 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 a speed of 60 mph
(100 km/h), local speed restrictions per-
mitting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
This warning lamp may also come on if
a door is opened.

DRIVING
STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the en-
gine temporarily into standby - STOP
mode - during stops in the traffi c (red
lights, traffi c jams, etc...). The engine
restarts automatically - START mode -
as soon as you want to move off. The
restart takes place instantly, quickly and
silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption, ex-
haust emissions and the noise level
when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode The "ECO" warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:
- with a manual gearbox , at speeds below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you
put the gear lever into neutral, and
you release the clutch pedal.
If your vehicle is fi tted with it, 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. For your comfort when parking,
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 braking, power steering, for ex-
ample.
Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off
the ignition with the key. Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- 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
using the key,
- the engine is needed to maintain a comfortable temperature in the pas-
senger compartment,
- demisting is active,
- some special conditions (battery charge, engine temperature, brak-
ing assistance, ambient tempera-
ture...) where the engine is needed
to assure control of a system.
The "ECO" warning lamp fl ash-
es for a few seconds, then goes
off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
In STOP mode of Stop & Start, the
"AIRWAVE" system stops working.

DRIVING
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
A pressure sensor is located in the
valve of a each of these tyres.
The system triggers an alert if a drop
in pressure is detected in one or more
tyres. This system does not avoid the
need to check the tyre pressures
regularly and before a long journey.
Driving with under-infl ated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and
causes premature tyre wear, par-
ticularly under arduous conditions
(vehicle loaded, high speed, long
journey).
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system continuously monitors the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as
the vehicle is moving.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is an aid to driving which
does not replace the need for the
driver to be vigilant or to drive re-
sponsibly. Driving with under-infl ated tyres in-
creases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle
can be found on the tyre pressure
label (see the "Identifi cation mark-
ings" section).
The tyre pressures must be
checked when the tyres cold (vehi-
cle stopped for 1 hour or after driv-
ing for less then 6 miles (10 km) at
moderate speed). Otherwise, add
0.3 bar to the values indicated on
the label.
Spare wheel
Don't forget to also check the tyre
pressure of the spare wheel.
If your vehicle has an alloy spare
wheel, this also has a sensor.
If your vehicle has a steel spare
wheel, this may be fi tted with a
sensor * . Check whether a sensor
is fi tted to a steel wheel.
