Driving
The hill start assist function cannot be deactivated. However, use of the parking 
brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts its 
operation.
Operation 
 
Facing uphill, with the vehicle stationary, 
the vehicle is held for a short time when you 
release the brake pedal:
–
 
provided you are in first gear or neutral with a 
manual gearbox.
–
 
provided you are in mode  D
 or M with an 
automatic gearbox.
 
 
Facing downhill, with the vehicle stationary 
and reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held 
for a short time when you release the brake 
pedal.
Malfunction
These warning lamps come on in  the event of a malfunction.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked.
5-speed manual gearbox
Engaging reverse gear 
 
► With the clutch pedal fully depressed, you 
must place the gear lever in neutral.
►
 
Move the gear lever to the right, then pull it 
back.
Only engage reverse gear when the 
vehicle is stationary with the engine at 
idle.
As a safety precaution and to facilitate  engine starting:
–
 
always select neutral,
–
 
depress the clutch pedal.
6-speed manual gearbox
Engaging 5th or 6th gear
► Move the gear selector fully to the right to 
engage 5th or 6th gear.
Failure to follow this instruction could 
cause permanent damage to the gearbox 
(inadvertent engagement of 3
rd or 4th gear).
Engaging reverse gear 
 
►  Raise the ring under the knob and move the 
gear lever to the left, then forwards.
Only engage reverse gear when the 
vehicle is stationary with the engine at 
idle.
As a safety precaution and to facilitate  engine starting:

Driving
and from N to R. This will not cause any damage 
to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed 
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:–  if you press the accelerator and 
brake pedals at the same time (braking or 
acceleration must be done only with the right 
foot),
–
 
if you force the selector from position  P
 to 
another position when the battery is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when  stationary for long periods with the 
engine running (traffic jam, etc.), position the 
selector on N and apply the parking brake.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox, 
do not try to start the engine by pushing 
the vehicle.
Gear efficiency indicator
(Depending on engine.)
This system helps reduce fuel consumption by 
recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and the 
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise to 
skip one or more gears.
Gear shift recommendations should not be 
considered compulsory. In fact, the road layout, 
the traffic density and safety remain the deciding 
factors when choosing the best gear. The driver 
therefore remains responsible for deciding 
whether or not to follow the indications issued by 
the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
With an automatic gearbox, the system is 
only active in manual operation.
The information appears in the instrument  panel, in the form of an ascending or 
descending arrow and the recommended gear.
The system adapts its gear shift  recommendation according to the driving 
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the driver’s 
requirements (power, acceleration, braking, 
etc.).
The system never suggests:
–
 
engaging first gear;
–
 
engaging reverse.
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.
Opening the bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet, 
deactivate the Stop & Start system to avoid 
any risk of injury caused by the engine 
restarting automatically.
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.
Deactivation/Activation
With button
 
 
 
 
►  To deactivate or reactivate the system, press 
this button.
The indicator lamp  is lit when the system is 
deactivated.
With audio system/touch screen
The system is activated and  deactivated via the vehicle 
configuration menu.
If the system has been deactivated in 
STOP mode, the engine restarts 
immediately.
The system reactivates automatically  whenever the engine is started by the 
driver.

• With the selector in position D  or M: with the 
brake pedal released.
•
 
With the selector in position  N
 and the brake 
pedal released: with the selector at  D or M.
•
 
With the selector in position  P
 and the brake 
pedal depressed: with the selector at  R, N, 
D or M.
Special cases
The engine will restart automatically if all 
conditions for operation are met again and in the 
following case.
–
 
Speed of the vehicle exceeds 2 mph (3
   km/h) 
(depending on the engine).
In this case, this indicator lamp flashes for 
a few seconds, then goes off.
Malfunctions
Depending on the vehicle’s equipment:In the event of a system malfunction, this 
warning lamp flashes on the instrument 
panel.
The warning lamp in this button flashes  and a message appears, accompanied by 
an audible signal.
Have the vehicle checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The vehicle stalls in STOP mode
All of the instrument panel warning lamps come 
on if there is a fault.
Depending on version, a warning message 
may also be displayed, prompting you to place 
the gear selector in position  N and depress the 
brake pedal.
►
 
Switch off the ignition then start the engine 
again with the key or the " ST
ART/STOP" button.
The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V 
battery of specific technology and 
specification.
All work concerning the battery must be 
carried out only by a PEUGEOT
 dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Under-inflation detection
This system automatically checks the pressures  of the tyres while driving.
It compares the information given by the wheel 
speed sensors with  reference values, which 
must be reinitialised every time the tyre 
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it 
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one or 
more tyres.
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):
–
 
worsens road-holding.
–
 
lengthens braking distances.
–
 
causes premature wear of the tyres.
–
 
increases fuel consumption.
The inflation pressures defined 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).
Otherwise, 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
This is signalled by the fixed illumination  of this warning lamp, accompanied by an 
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the 
display of a message.
►  Reduce speed immediately, avoid excessive 
steering movements and avoid sudden braking.
►  Stop 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.
►  Using a compressor, such as the one in 
the temporary puncture repair kit, check the 
pressures of the four tyres when cold.
►  If it is not possible to make this check 
immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.
►  In 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

Malfunction 
 
Dashes are displayed (flashing, initially, then 
fixed) in the event of a speed limiter malfunction.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
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 occur.
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.
Exceeding the programmed speed 
setting
You can temporarily exceed the speed 
setting by pressing the accelerator pedal (the 
programmed speed flashes).
To return to the speed setting, release the 
accelerator pedal (when the set speed is 
reached again, the displayed speed stops 
flashing).
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following 
situations:
–
 
in an urban area with the risk of 
pedestrians crossing the road,
–
 
in heavy traffic,
–
 
on winding or steep roads,
–
 
on slippery or flooded roads,
–
 
in unfavourable climatic conditions,
–
 
driving on a speed circuit,
–
 
driving on a rolling road,
–
 
use of snow chains, non-slip covers or 
studded tyres.
Programmable cruise 
control
Refer to the General recommendations on the 
use of driving and manoeuvring aids  and to 
Cruise control - particular 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, third gear or higher must 
be engaged.
With an automatic gearbox, mode
 
D
  or second 
gear or higher in mode
 
M
  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.

corresponding section.
Active Safety Brake  with Distance Alert and 
Intelligent emergency 
braking assistance
Refer to the General recommendations on the 
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
 
 
This system allows:
–
 the driver to be warned that their vehicle is at 
risk of collision with the vehicle in front,
–
 
a collision to be prevented, or its severity to be 
limited, by reducing the vehicle’
s speed.
This system is comprised of three functions:
–
 
Distance Alert,
–
 
Intelligent emergency braking assistance,
–
 
Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency 
braking).
 
 
The vehicle has a camera located at the top of 
the windscreen.
This system does not avoid the need for  vigilance on the part of the driver.
This system is designed to assist the driver 
and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously 
monitor the state of the traffic, observing the 
driving regulations.
As soon as the system detects a  potential obstacle, it prepares the braking 
circuit in case automatic braking is needed. 
This may cause a slight noise and a slight 
sensation of deceleration.
Operating conditions and 
limits
The ESC system must not be faulty.
The DSC/ASR systems must not be deactivated.
All passenger seat belts must be fastened.
Driving at a steady speed on roads with few 
bends is required.
In the following cases, deactivating the system 
via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:
–
 
towing a trailer
 ,
–
 
carrying long objects on roof bars or roof rack,
–
 
with snow chains fitted,
–
 
before using an automatic car wash, with the 
engine running,
–
 
before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in 
a workshop,
–
 
towed vehicle, engine running,
–  Following an impact to the windscreen close to 
the detection camera.
The system is automatically deactivated  after the use of certain "space-saver" 
type spare wheels is detected (smaller 
diameter).
The system is automatically deactivated 
after detection of a fault with the brake pedal 
switch or with at least two brake lamps.
It is possible that warnings are not given, 
are given too late or seem unjustified.
Consequently, always stay in control of your 
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time 
to avoid an accident.
After an impact, the function  automatically stops operating. Contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to 
have the system checked.
Distance Alert
It warns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of 
collision with the vehicle in front or a pedestrian 
present in their traffic lane.
Operation
Depending on the degree of risk of collision 
detected by the system and the alert threshold 
chosen by the driver, several different levels    
Page 122 of 260

Driving
Active Safety Brake 
 
This function, also called automatic emergency 
braking, intervenes following the alerts if the 
driver does not react quickly enough and does 
not operate the vehicle's brakes.
It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a 
collision where the driver fails to react.
Operation
The system operates under the following 
conditions:
– 
The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph 
(60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
–
 
The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph 
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle is detected.
– The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and 
53 mph (10   km/h and 85   km/h) when a moving 
vehicle is detected.
This warning lamp flashes (for about  10   seconds) once the function is acting on 
the vehicle's brakes.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of 
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle 
comes to a complete stop, keep the brake 
pedal pressed down to prevent the vehicle from 
starting off again.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic 
emergency braking until the vehicle comes to a 
complete stop, the engine may stall.
The driver can maintain control of the  vehicle at any time by sharply turning the 
steering wheel and/or pressing the 
accelerator pedal.
Operation of the function may be felt by 
slight vibration in the brake pedal.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the 
automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2 
seconds.
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated 
at every engine start.
This system can be  deactivated or activated via 
the vehicle settings menu.
Deactivation of the system is signalled by 
the illumination of this indicator lamp, 
accompanied by the display of a message.
Malfunction
In the event of a system malfunction, this 
warning lamp comes on on the instrument 
panel, accompanied by an onscreen message 
and an audible signal.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked.
If these warning lamps come on 
after the engine has been switched 
off and then restarted, contact a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the 
system checked.
Active Lane Keeping  Assistance
Refer to the General recommendations on the 
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
Using a camera located at the top of the 
windscreen to identify lane markings on the road 
and at the edges of the road (depending on 
version), the system corrects the trajectory of the 
vehicle while alerting the driver if it detects a risk 
of unintentionally crossing a line or hard shoulder 
(depending on version).
This system is particularly useful on motorways 
and main roads.
 
 
Conditions for operation
–  The speed of the vehicle must be between 40 
and 112 mph (65 and 180 km/h).
–  The traffic lane must be delimited by a dividing 
line.
–  The driver must hold the wheel with both 
hands.
–  The change of trajectory must not be 
accompanied by operation of the direction 
indicators.
–  The ESC system must be activated and not 
faulty.
The system helps the driver only when  there is a risk of the vehicle involuntarily 
wandering from the lane it is being driven in. It

Operation 
 
When a petrol filler nozzle is inserted into the 
fuel filler neck of a Diesel vehicle, it comes into 
contact with the flap. The system remains closed 
and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type 
filler nozzle.
It remains possible to use a fuel jerrycan 
to fill the tank.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be 
different in other countries, the presence 
of the misfuel prevention device may make 
refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, it is advisable to 
check with a PEUGEOT dealer if the vehicle 
is suitable for the distribution equipment of the 
countries visited.
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve 
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle 
when braking.
The snow chains must be fitted only to  the front wheels. They must never be 
fitted to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation specific to  each country on the use of snow chains 
and the maximum authorised speed.
Installation tips
► If you have to fit the chains during a journey , 
stop the vehicle on a flat surface on the side of 
the road.
►
 
Apply the parking brake and position any 
wheel chocks under the wheels to prevent 
movement of your vehicle.
►
 
Fit the chains following the instructions 
provided by the manufacturer
.
►
 
Move off gently and drive for a few moments, 
without exceeding 31 mph (50 km/h).
►
 
Stop your vehicle and check that the snow 
chains are correctly tightened.
It is strongly recommended that before 
you leave, you practise fitting the snow 
chains on a level and dry surface.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads  that have been cleared of snow to avoid 
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the road 
surface. If your vehicle is fitted with alloy 
wheels, check that no part of the chain or its 
fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the 
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size  (mm)
195/65 R15 9
205/60 R16
205/55 R17
215/65 R16
215/60 R17 cannot be fitted with 
chains
You can also use snow socks.
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Load distribution
►  Distribute the load in the trailer so that the 
heaviest items are as close as possible to 
the axle and the nose weight approaches the 
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing 
engine performance. 
The maximum towed load

Practical information
► Put each fixing in place and lock them on the 
roof one by one.
►  Ensure that the roof bars or the roof rack are 
correctly fitted (by shaking them).
The bars are adaptable for each fixing point.
Bonnet
Stop & Start
Before doing anything under the bonnet, 
you must switch off the ignition to avoid any 
risk of injury resulting from an automatic 
change to START mode.
The location of the interior bonnet  release lever prevents opening the 
bonnet when the left-hand front door is 
closed.
When the engine is hot, handle the 
exterior safety catch and the bonnet stay 
with care (risk of burns), using the protected 
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to 
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy 
conditions.
If a telephone call is in progress at the 
time, it will be maintained for around 10 
minutes using your audio system’s hands-free 
system.
Exiting the mode
These functions will be automatically reactivated 
the next time the vehicle is used.
In order to restore the use of these functions 
immediately, start the engine and let it run:
–
 
for less than 10 minutes, to use the equipment 
for approximately 5 minutes,
–
 
for more than 10 minutes, to use the 
equipment for approximately 30 minutes.
Let the engine run for the duration specified to 
ensure that the battery charge is sufficient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously restart the 
engine in order to charge the battery
.
A flat battery prevents the engine from starting.
For more information on the  12 V battery, 
refer to the corresponding section.
Load reduction mode
System that manages the use of certain 
functions according to the level of charge 
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load 
reduction function temporarily deactivates certain 
functions, such as the air conditioning and the 
heated rear screen.
The deactivated functions are reactivated 
automatically as soon as conditions permit.
Roof bars / Roof rack
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care 
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as close 
as possible to the roof.
Secure the load firmly.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more 
susceptible to the effects of side winds and its 
stability may be affected.
Regularly check the security and tight 
fastening of the roof bars and racks, at least 
before each trip.
In the event of loading ( not exceeding 
40 cm in height) on the roof, do not 
exceed  the following loads:
–

Three transverse bars bolted to the roof: 
150
 
kg.
–
 
An aluminium rack:  120
  kg.
–
 
A
 steel rack: 115   kg.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed 
of the vehicle to the profile of the road to 
avoid damaging the roof bars or the roof rack 
and the fixings on the vehicle.
Refer to national legislation in order to comply 
with the regulations for transporting objects 
that are longer than the vehicle.
 
 
As a safety measure and to avoid  damaging the roof, it is essential to use 
the roof bars and racks approved for your 
vehicle.
Observe the instructions on fitting and use 
contained in the guide supplied with the roof 
bars and racks.
