The alert is maintained until
the tyre or tyres concerned is
reinflated, repaired or replaced.
The spare wheel (space-saver
type or a steel rim) does not have a
sensor.
Operating fault
Under-inflation alert
The loss of pressure detected
does not always lead to visible
deformation of the tyre. Do not rely
on just a visual check.
The alert is given by the fixed
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal,
and depending on equipment, the
display of a message. The flashing and then
fixed illumination of the
under-inflation warning
lamp accompanied by the
illumination of the "Service" warning
lamp, and depending on equipment,
the display of a message indicates a
fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre
pressures is not assured.
In the event of a problem on one of
the tyres, the symbol or the message
appears, according to equipment, to
identify it.
-

Reduce speed, avoid sudden
steering movements or harsh brake
applications.
-


Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
-


In the event of a puncture, use
the temporary puncture repair kit
or the spare wheel (according to
equipment),
or
-


if you have a compressor

, the one
in the temporary puncture repair
kit for example, check the four tyre
pressures when cold,
or
-


if it is not possible to check the
tyre pressures at the time, drive
carefully at reduced speed. This alert is also displayed when
one or more wheels is not fitted
with a sensor (for example,
a

space-saver or steel spare wheel).
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop
to have the system
checked or, following the repair of a
puncture, to have the original wheel,
equipped with a sensor, refitted.

MANUAL GEARBOX
5-speed
6-speed
To change gear easily, always depress
the clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedal:
-

ensure that the mat is positioned
and secured correctly on the floor

,
-

never fit one mat on top of another
.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand
on the gear knob as the force exerted,
even if slight, may wear the internal
components of the gearbox over time.
Changing into 5th or 6th gear
Move the gear lever fully to the right to
engage 5th or 6th gear.
Engaging reverse gear
In the 6-speed configuration, raise the
collar under the gear knob to engage
reverse gear.
Never engage reverse gear before
the vehicle is completely stationary.
The lever should be moved slowly to
reduce the noise on engaging reverse
gear.

GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
System which reduces fuel
consumption by recommending the
most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system
may advise you to skip one (or more)
gear(s). You can follow this instruction
without engaging the intermediate
gears.
The gear engagement
recommendations must not be
considered compulsory. In fact, the
configuration of the road, the amount
of traffic and safety remain determining
factors when choosing the best
gear. Therefore, the driver remains
responsible for deciding whether or
not to follow the advice given by the
system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
With an electronic gearbox, the system
is only active in manual mode. The system adapts its gear
change recommendation
according to the driving conditions
(slope, load,
...) and the demands
of the driver (power, acceleration,
braking,
...).
The system never suggests:
-

engaging first gear
,
-

engaging reverse gear
.
The information appears in
the instrument panel in the
form of an arrow.

The gearbox then operates in
automatic mode, without any action on
your part.
It constantly selects the gear that is
best suited to the following conditions:
-
driving style,
-

road profile,
-

optimum fuel consumption.
Vehicle stationary, with
the
engine running
In the event of a prolonged stop with
the engine running, the gearbox
changes automatically to neutral N.
Stopping the vehicle
Before stopping the engine, put the
gear selector in position N.
In all cases, it is essential to apply
the parking brake. Check that the
parking brake warning lamp is on in the
instrument panel.
Before doing anything in the
engine compartment, check that
the gear selector is in neutral N.
Acceleration
For optimum acceleration (e.g. to
overtake another vehicle), simply
press the pedal beyond the point of
resistance at the end of its travel, by
pressing down firmly.
Changing gear
In situations of high engine speeds
(heavy acceleration), a change
up will not occur unless the driver
operates the electronic gearbox control
paddle. Pull on the "+" control
paddle to change up.
Pull on the "-" control
paddle to change down.
-

If the vehicle stops or reduces
speed (for example when
approaching a stop sign),
the gearbox changes down
automatically

, to first gear if
needed.
-

It is not necessary to release the
accelerator completely during gear
changes.
-


A
gear change instruction is
accepted only if the engine speed
permits.
-

For safety reasons, depending on
the engine speed, a change down
may be performed automatically

STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the
engine temporarily on standby - ST OP
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 as well as 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
release the clutch pedal,
-

with the 6-speed electronic gear
control gearbox

, at a speed below
5 mph (8 km/h), when you press
the brake pedal or put the gear
lever into position N. If your vehicle is fitted with the system,
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.
With the automatic gearbox
system, for your comfort during
parking manoeuvres, 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 example.
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
passenger compartment,
-

demisting is on,
-

some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature,
braking assistance, ambient
temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a
system.
In this case, the
"ECO"
warning lamp flashes for a
few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
