As a safety measure (children on board),
never leave the vehicle with the engine
running and the doors closed.
Manual operation
F With the selector in position D,
press button M for sequential
changing of the 6
or 8 gears.
The indicator lamp for the button goes off. In manual mode, it is not necessary
to release the accelerator pedal when
changing gear.
It is only possible to change from one gear
to another if the vehicle speed and engine
speed conditions permit. If the engine speed is too low or too
high, the selected gear flashes for a few
seconds, then the gear actually activated
is displayed.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox selects gear M1

automatically.
To save the brakes when descending
a steep incline, use engine braking to
reduce your speed (change down to a
lower gear).
Keeping the brake pedal pressed
continuously for long periods can overheat
the brakes, with the risk of damaging the
braking system or making it inoperative.
Only use the brakes when necessary, to
slow or stop the vehicle.
Depending on the road configuration (e.g.
mountainous road), manual operation is
preferable.
This is because automatic operation may
not be best suited, not allowing the use of
engine braking.

It is not necessary to release the
accelerator when changing gear.
When braking or slowing down, the
gearbox changes down automatically
to allow the vehicle to accelerate in the
correct gear.
On sharp acceleration, the gearbox will
not change up unless the driver acts on
the steering mounted paddles.
Never select neutral N while the vehicle is
moving.
Only engage reverse gear R when the
vehicle is stopped and the brake pedal is
pressed.
Reverse gear
To engage reverse gear, the vehicle must be
stationary with your foot on the brake pedal.
F
Sel
ect position R .
There is an audible signal upon engagement of
reverse.
At low speed, if reverse gear is requested,
the N indicator lamp flashes and the
gearbox goes into neutral automatically.
To engage reverse, with your foot on
the brake pedal, move the selector to
position


N, then to position R .
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, it is possible to:
-
m ove to position N to engage neutral,
or
-

l
eave the vehicle in gear; in this case, the
vehicle cannot be moved.
In both cases, you must apply the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle.
When immobilising the vehicle with the
engine running, you must move the
selector to neutral N .
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
ensure that the selector is in neutral N and
that the parking brake is applied.
Malfunction
With the ignition on, the flashing of A or
AUTO , accompanied by an audible signal and
a message, indicates a malfunction of the
gearbox.
Have the vehicle checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. You must keep your foot on the brake
pedal while starting the engine.
In all parking situations, you must apply
the parking brake to immobilise the
vehicle.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
phases when the vehicle is stopped (red lights,
queues, etc.). The engine restarts automatically
- START mode - as soon as the driver wishes
to move off again.
Primarily designed for urban use, the function
is intended to reduce fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise level
when stationary.
The function does not affect the functionalities
of the vehicle, in particular the braking.
Driving on flooded roads
Before entering into a flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving
recommendations , particularly on
flooded roads, refer to the corresponding
section.

The inflation pressures specified for the
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings, refer to the
corresponding section.
Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when the tyres
are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or
after a journey of less than 6 miles (10
km)
at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3
bar to the pressures
shown on the label. Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
Spare wheel
The steel spare wheel does not have an
under-inflation detection sensor.
Under-inflation alert
Under-inflation detection does not replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
This system does not avoid the need
to regularly check the tyre pressures
(including the spare wheel) as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres,
particularly in adverse conditions (heavy
load, high speed, long journey):
-

illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal
and, depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
F

R
educe speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and avoid sudden
braking.
F

S
top the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check. F
I f it is not possible to make this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
F

I
n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment).
The alert is kept active until the system is
reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
Reinitialise the system after adjusting one or
more tyre pressures and after changing one or
more wheels.
Before reinitialising the system, make
sure that the pressures of the four tyres
are correct for the conditions of use of the
vehicle and conform to the values written
on the tyre pressure label.
Check the pressures of the four tyres
before performing the reinitialisation.
The system does not advise if a pressure
is incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
F

U

sing a compressor, such as the one in the
temporary puncture repair kit, check the
pressures of the four tyres when cold.

156
Without audio system
F Press this button for about 3 seconds then release it, an audible signal confirms the
reinitialisation.
With audio system or touch
screen
The reinitialisation is carried out via
the vehicle configuration menu.
Malfunction
In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
tyres is no longer assured.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. The illumination of these warning lamps
indicates a fault with the system.
Driving and manoeuvring
aids - General
recommendations
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway
Code, must remain in control of the
vehicle in all circumstances and must be
able to retake control of it at all times. The
driver must adapt the speed to climactic
conditions, traffic and the state of the
road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
check the traffic, to assess the relative
distances and speeds of other vehicles
and to anticipate their movements before
indicating and changing lane.
The systems cannot exceed the limits of
the laws of physics.
Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel with
both hands, always use the interior and
exterior rear view mirrors, always keep the
feet close to the pedals and take a break
every two hours. Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the
surroundings of the vehicle before and
during the whole manoeuvre, in particular
using the mirrors.
Radar
The operation of the radar as well as the
associated functions may be impaired
through the accumulation of dirt (mud,
frost, etc.), in certain difficult weather
conditions (very heavy rain, snow) or if the
bumper is damaged.
If the front bumper is to be repainted,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop; certain types of paint could
inter fere with the operation of the radar.
Driving

157
Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions
may be impaired if the windscreen area in
front of the camera is dirty, misty, frosty,
covered with snow, damaged or masked
by a sticker.
On versions with camera alone, this
message indicates to you that the camera
is obstructed: "Driving aids camera:
Visibility limited, see user guide".
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low
sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving
a tunnel, alternating shade and light) can
also impair detection performance. Other cameras
The images from the camera(s) displayed
on the touch screen or on the instrument
panel may be distorted by the relief.
In the presence of areas in shade, or in
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate
lighting, the image may be darkened and
with lower contrast.
Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are.
Sensors
The operation of the sensors, as well
as the associated functions, may be
disturbed by sound inter ference such
as that emitted by noisy vehicles and
machinery (e.g. lorries, pneumatic drills),
by the accumulation of snow or dead
leaves on the road or in the event of
damaged bumpers and mirrors.
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the
sensors may be dirty.
A front or rear impact to the vehicle can
upset the sensors’ settings, which is not
always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be distorted.
The sensors do not always detect
obstacles that are too low (pavements,
studs) or too thin (trees, posts, wire
fe n c e s).
Certain obstacles located in the sensors’
blind spots may not be detected or may no
longer be detected during the manoeuvre.
Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.

Height adjustment
With the engine running, adjust the display
to the desired height using buttons 4:
-

u
p to move the display up,
-

d
own to move the display down.
Brightness adjustment
F With the engine running, adjust the brightness of the information display using
button 3 :
-

t
he "sun" to increase the brightness,
-

t
he "moon" to decrease the brightness. When stationary or while driving, no
objects should be placed around the
blade (or in its recess) so as to not impede
deployment of the blade and its correct
operation.
In certain extreme weather conditions
(rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, etc.)
the head-up display may not be legible or
may suffer temporary interference.
Some sunglasses may hamper reading of
the information.
To clean the blade, use a clean, soft cloth
(such as a spectacles cloth or microfibre
cloth). Do not use a dry or abrasive cloth
or detergent or solvent products as these
could scratch the blade or damage the
anti-reflection coating.
This system operates when the engine is
running, and the settings are stored when
the ignition is switched off.
Memorising speeds
This function allows speed settings to
be stored that will then be offered for
configuration of two systems: speed limiter
or cruise control.
Programming
The speed thresholds can be set in
the vehicle configuration menu using
the touch screen.

Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speed
F To temporarily exceed the programmed speed threshold, fully depress the
accelerator pedal.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the displayed programmed speed flashes.
If it is exceeded for a prolonged period of time,
an audible warning is triggered.
Simply release the accelerator pedal to return
to below the programmed speed. When the limit speed is exceeded but this is not
due to action by the driver (in case of a steep
slope, for example), an audible signal triggers
immediately.
Once the speed of the vehicle returns to
the programmed setting, the speed limiter
functions again: the display of the programmed
speed setting becomes fixed again.
Switching off
F Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the " 0" position:
the display of information on the speed
limiter disappears.
Malfunction
To modify the limit speed setting from the
speed suggested by the vehicle Speed Limit
recognition and recommendation:
F

t
he speed suggested is displayed in the
instrument panel,
F

m
ake a first press on button 5 ; a message
is displayed to confirm the memorisation
request,
F

p
ress button 5 again to save the suggested
speed.
The speed displays immediately in the
instrument panel as the new speed setting.
The display of dashes (flashing then fixed)
indicates a fault with the speed limiter.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The selection screen closes after a few
moments.
This setting becomes the new limit speed.
Cruise control - particular
recommendations
For the safety of everyone, only use the
cruise control where the driving conditions
allow running at a constant speed and
keeping an adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant
when the cruise control
is activated. If you hold one of the speed
setting modification buttons, a very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle may
o c c u r.
When descending a steep hill , the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the set speed. Brake if
necessary to control the speed of your
vehicle.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set
speed may not be reached or maintained.
Driving

165
Exceeding the programmed speed
setting
The speed setting can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator
pedal (the programmed speed flashes).
To return to the speed setting, release
the accelerator pedal (when this speed is
reached again, the display of the speed
stops flashing).
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following
situations:
-

i
n an urban area with the risk of
pedestrians crossing the road,
-

i
n heavy traffic,
-

o
n winding or steep roads,
-

o

Refer to the General recommendations
on the use of driving and manoeuvring
aids and to Cruise control - par ticular
recommendations .
This system automatically keeps the
vehicle’s speed at the cruise value
programmed by the driver (speed
setting), without using the accelerator
pedal.
The cruise control is switched on manually.
It requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40


km/h).
With a manual gearbox, it requires the
engagement of third gear or higher.
With an automatic gearbox, it requires the
engagement of mode D or of second gear or
higher in mode M .
With an automatic or electronic gearbox,
second gear or higher must be engaged.
The cruise control remains active after
changing gear regardless of the gearbox
type on engines fitted with Stop & Start. Switching off the ignition cancels any
speed setting.
