Driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations and remain
vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your
hands on the wheel so that you are ready to
react at any time to any eventuality.
As a safety measure, the driver should only
carry out any operations that require close
attention when the vehicle is stationary.
On a long journey, a break every two hours is
strongly recommended.
In bad weather, drive smoothly, anticipate the
need to brake and increase the distance from
other vehicles.Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. There is a risk of poisoning and
death!
In very severe wintry conditions
(temperatures below -23°C), to guarantee
correct operation and the longevity of
the mechanical elements of your vehicle
(engine and gearbox), the engine must be
left running for 4 minutes before driving.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied
– Risk of overheating and damage to the
braking system!
As the exhaust system of your vehicle
is very hot, even several minutes after
switching off the engine, never park or run
the engine on inflammable sur faces (dry
grass, fallen leaves, etc.) – Risk of fire!
Never leave a vehicle unsuper vised with
the engine running. If you have to leave
your vehicle with the engine running, apply
the parking brake and put the gearbox into
neutral or position N or P , depending on
the type of gearbox.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded
roads, as this could cause serious damage
to the engine or gearbox, as well as to the
electrical systems of your vehicle. If you are obliged to drive on a flooded road:
-

c
heck that the depth of water does not
exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that
might be generated by other users,
-
d
eactivate the Stop & Start function,
-
d
rive as slowly as possible without stalling.
In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h),
-
d
o not stop and do not switch off the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety
conditions allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Electric parking brake
The system provides, in automatic operation,
for the application of the parking brake on
switching off the engine and its release as the
vehicle moves off.
Indicator lamp
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and in the control
lever to confirm the application of
the parking brake.
It goes off to confirm the release of the parking
brake.
This indicator lamp flashes on the control
lever when manual brake locking or release is
performed.
In the event of a battery failure, the
electric parking brake no longer works.
As a safety measure with a manual
gearbox, if the parking brake is not
applied, immobilise the vehicle by
engaging a gear.
As a safety measure with an automatic
gearbox, if the parking brake is not
applied, immobilise the vehicle by placing
the chocks supplied against one of the
wheels.
Call on a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The driver can take over at any time to apply
or release the parking brake, by operating the
control lever:
F

b

y briefly pulling the control lever to apply
the brake,
F

b

y briefly pushing the control lever, while
pressing the brake pedal, to release it.
Automatic mode is activated by default. Before leaving the vehicle, check that the
parking brake is applied: the parking brake
indicator lamps in the instrument panel
and the control lever must be on fixed.
If the parking brake is not applied, there
is an audible signal and a message is
displayed on opening the driver's door.
Never leave a child alone inside the
vehicle with the ignition on, as they could
release the parking brake.
When towing, parking on a steep slope,
or if your vehicle is heavily laden, turn the
wheels towards the kerb and engage a
gear with a manual gearbox.
When towing, parking on a steep slope,
or if your vehicle is heavily laden, turn the
wheels towards the kerb and select mode
P with an automatic gearbox.
For towing, your vehicle is approved for
parking on slopes of up to 12%.
In this case, the steering column locks as soon
as the vehicle stops.
On certain versions with the automatic gearbox
(EAT6/EAT8), the steering column does not lock.
