Moving off
You must press the brake pedal.
Start the engine; the gearbox changes into
neutral automatically.
the gear lever stays in the position selected
before switching off the ignition.
"N" appears in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by an audible signal, to
indicate that there is a difference between
the position of the gear lever and the gear
selected in the gearbox.
Select first gear (move the lever towards + )
or reverse (position R ).
Release the parking brake.
Remove your foot from the brake pedal and
then accelerate away.
"1" or "R" appears in the instrument panel
screen. It is also possible to move off in
2nd gear on slippery surfaces.
Stopping - Starting on a slope
This gearbox is an electronic gearbox which
does not have a clutch pedal.
Do not use the accelerator pedal to
immobilise the vehicle on a slope, apply
the parking brake instead; failure to
follow this procedure can overheat the
clutch and damage the gearbox .
When moving off on a slope, accelerate
gradually while releasing the parking brake. By rapidly pushing the accelerator fully
done, the vehicle moves off quickly.
Automated mode
Once you have moved off, you can switch to
automated mode by selecting position
A/M .
"AUTO" and the gear engaged
appear in the instrument panel
screen.
The gearbox then operates in auto-active
mode, without any action on the part of the
driver.
It continuously selects the most appropriate
gear depending on the:
- vehicle speed,
- engine speed,
- accelerator pedal position.
To optimise driving comfort and obtain the
most suitable gear, avoid sharp variations in
the pressure on the accelerator pedal.
If you press the accelerator pedal beyond
the point of resistance, the gearbox changes
down for sharper acceleration.

Gearbox and steering wheel Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, with your
foot on the brake pedal, you should:
- select first gear or reverse.
- apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle.
Temporarily changing gear
You can also request a gear change using
the gear lever.
This action does not deactivate the
automated mode, but allows temporary
use of the sequential mode functions (for
example: for overtaking another vehicle...).
"AUTO" remains displayed in the instrument
panel screen.
"ECO" economy programme
This programme works with the automated
mode to reduce fuel consumption.
Press button E to activate the programme. Sequential mode
After using the automated mode, you can
return to the sequential mode by selecting
position
A
/M again.
"E" appears in the instrument
panel screen, next to "AUTO"
and the gear selected by the
gearbox.
The gearbox then selects the best gear for
the speed of the vehicle, the engine speed
and the accelerator pedal position to reduce
fuel consumption.
"AUTO" disappears and the
gears engaged appear in
succession in the instrument
panel screen.
t is not necessary to take your foot off the
accelerator pedal to change the gear.
The gear change requests are only carried
out if the engine speed permits it. The
system gives an audible signal if a gear
change is not possible.
At low speeds, when approaching a stop
or traffic lights for example, the gearbox
changes down to first gear automatically. Release the brake pedal after the display
of the gear engaged has disappeared
from the instrument panel screen.
Never leave the vehicle with the
gearbox in neutral (position
N ). In this
case, there is an audible signal on switching
off the ignition (ignition key in the STOP
position).

Reinitialisation
Turn the ignition key to the MAR position.
Within ten seconds, the gear engaged should
appear in the instrument panel screen.
Otherwise, turn the ignition key to the
STOP position and wait until the instrument
panel screen goes off.
Turn the ignition key to the MAR position
again. The illumination of this warning
lamp, accompanied by a message
in the instrument panel screen,
indicates incorrect use of the
gearbox by the driver.
With the ignition on, the flashing this warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and
a message in the instrument panel screen,
indicates a fault with the gearbox.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
If the problem persist, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Never select neutral N while the vehicle
is moving.
Only engage reverse gear R with the vehicle
immobilised and the brake pedal pressed.
You risk damaging the gearbox if you
press the accelerator and brake pedals
simultaneously.
Back-up mode - Slow move off
This procedure should be applied if pressing
the brake pedal is not recognised by the
system, or if the gearbox has fault on
starting the engine.
Press the brake pedal firmly.
Turn the ignition key to the
AVV position for
at least seven seconds.
The engine starts.
The system is in back-up mode; the gearbox
will not go beyond the 3 rd gear engaged and
automated mode is not available.
If the engine does not start, have
the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer. Operating fault
In the event of a prolonged stop with
the engine running, it is recommended
that the gearbox be put into neutral
(position N ).
With the vehicle stationary, the engine
running and first, second or reverse
gear engaged, the gearbox changes to
neutral automatically, accompanied by
an audible signal, in the following
circumstances:
- no action on the accelerator or brake pedals for at least 3 minutes,
- brake pedal applied for more than 10 minutes,
- driver's door opened and no action on the accelerator or brake pedals for at least
1.5 seconds,
- a gearbox fault.
When towing your vehicle, ensure that
the gearbox is in neutral (position N ).

HILL START ASSIST
An integral part of the ESP system, it
faciltates starting on a gradient by keeping
your vehicle immobilised temporarily
(approximately 2 seconds), the time it takes
to move your foot from the brake pedal to
the accelerator pedal.
This function is only active when:
- the vehicle is completely stationary, with your foot on the brake pedal,
- the engine is running,
- the gradient is steeper than 5 %, Operation
On a slope, with engine running and the
vehicle stationary, the vehicle is held
for a brief moment when you release the
brake pedal:
- provided you are in first gear or neutral with a manual gearbox,
- provided you are in position A or M with
an electronic gearbox,
On a descending slope, with the vehicle
stationary, the engine running and
reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held
for a brief moment when you release the
brake pedal.
After 2 seconds, if the vehicle has not
moved off, the system is deactivated
automatically by gradually reducing the
brake pressure. During this phase, the
characteristic sound of brakes being
released will be heard, indicating the
imminent movement of the vehicle. Do not leave the vehicle while it is
being held in the hill start assist phase.
If you need to leave the vehicle while the
engine is running, apply the parking brake
manually. Then ensure that the parking
brake warning lamp is on (not flashing)
in the instrument panel.
Operating fault
If a fault occurs with the system,
these warning lamps come on
in the instrument panel. Contact
a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
system checked.
In STOP mode of Stop & Start, hill start
assist is inactive.

Gearbox and steering wheel
- with a manual gearbox , with the vehicle
stationary, put the gear lever into neutral,
then release the clutch pedal,
- with an electronic gearbox , with the
vehicle stationary, hold the brake pedal
down or put the gear lever into position N . Special cases: STOP mode unavailable
The STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the driver's door is open,
- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,
- the heated rear screen is on,
- the windscreen wiper is on fast wipe,
- reverse gear is engaged,
- some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature, particle
filter regeneration, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a system.
In this case, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by the "S" warning
lamp, which flashes for a few
seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
STOP & START
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.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions and offers the comfort of
complete silence when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "S" warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby: Automatic stopping of the engine is only
possible after the vehicle has exceed a
speed of about 6 mph (10 km/h), to avoid
repeated stopping of the engine when
driving slowly.
In the STOP mode Stop & Start, hill
start assist is inactive.
Never leave your vehicle with out first
turning off the ignition with the key.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key.

Gearbox and steering wheel Special cases: START invoked
automatically
The START mode is invoked automatically
when:
- the vehicle's is free wheeling on a slope,
- the windscreen wiper is on fast wipe,
- the engine has been stopped for more than 3 minutes with Stop & Start,
- some special conditions (battery charge, engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a system. Good practice
With a manual gearbox in STOP mode,
if a gear is engaged without fully depressing
the clutch pedal, a warning lamp comes on
or a message is displayed in the instrument
panel asking you to fully depress the clutch
pedal to restart the engine.
With the engine stopped in STOP mode,
if the driver unfasten's their seat belt and
opens a front door, the engine can only
be restarted using the ignition key. This is
indicated by an audible signal, accompanied
by flashing of the service warning lamp and
a message in the instrument panel screen.
If following an automatic restart in START
mode, the driver takes no action on the
the vehicle during the next 3 minutes, the
system stops the engine definitively. The
engine can then only be restarted using the
key.
Going into engine START mode
The "S" warning lamp goes off and
the engine starts:
- with a manual gearbox , depress the
clutch pedal,
- with an electronic gearbox :

Deactivation
To give precedence to the control
of the temperature in the passenger
compartment, the Stop & Start
system should be deactivated to
allow continuous operation of the air
conditioning. The system is reactivated automatically
at every new start using the key.
At any time, press the "S - OFF" switch to
deactivate the system.
This is confirmed by the switch warning lamp
coming on accompanied by a message in
the instrument panel screen.
If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately. Operating fault Maintenance
In the event of a fault with
the system, the Stop & Start
system is deactivated and the
service warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by a message in the
instrument panel screen.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
In the event of an operating fault with STOP
mode, it is possible to restart the engine by
depressing the clutch pedal fully and putting
the gear lever into neutral. Before working under the bonnet, you
must switch off the ignition with the
key to avoid any risk of injury resulting from
automatic operation of START mode.
This system requires a specific battery
with a special specification and technology
(reference numbers available from
PEUGEOT dealers).
Fitting a battery not listed by
PEUGEOT introduces the risk of malfunction
of the system.
The Stop & Start system makes use
of advanced technology. Specialist
knowledge is needed for any work on the
system, which can only be assured by
PEUGEOT dealers.
Reactivation
Press the
"S - OFF" switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off and a
message in the instrument panel screen.
