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
To engage the gear correctly, move the 
gear lever fully to the right.
engaging reverse gear
The lever should be moved slowly 
to reduce noise.
To engage reverse gear, wait until the 
vehicle has come to a complete stop.

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
 .
With an electronic gearbox, the system 
is only active in manual mode.

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.

StoP & StARt
The Stop & Start system puts the 
engine temporarily on standby - STo P 
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  " e C o " 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
  a 6-speed electronic 
gearbox, at speeds 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 ST
o
P mode during a 
journey. It rests itself to zero every time 
the ignition is switched on with the key.
With a 6-speed electronic 
gearbox, for your comfort during 
parking manoeuvres, ST
o
 P mode 
is not available for a few seconds after 
coming out of reverse gear.
ST
o
 P mode does not affect the 
functionality of the vehicle, such as 
braking, power steering, for example.
Never refuel with the engine in 
ST
o
 P mode; you must switch off 
the ignition with the key. Special cases: S to P mode 
unavailable
ST
o
 P mode is not invoked when:
-  
the driver's door is open,
-

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,

Maintenance
Before working under the bonnet, 
deactivate the Stop & Start 
system 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 a P
eugeo T dealer or a 
qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by 
P
eugeo T
 
 introduces the risk of 
malfunction of the system.
The Stop & Start system makes 
use of advanced technology. All 
work on this type of battery must 
be done only by a P
eugeo T dealer or 
a qualified workshop.

HILL StAR t  ASSIS t
This system (also called HHC - Hill 
Holder Control), linked to the dynamic 
stability control system, makes hill 
starts easier and is activated in the 
following conditions:
-
 
the vehicle must be stationary
 , 
engine running, foot on the brake,
-
 
the gradient of the road must be 
steeper than 5%,
-
 
uphill, the gearbox must be in 
neutral or in a gear other than 
reverse,
-
 
downhill, reverse gear must be 
engaged.
The Hill Start 
Assist system is a driving 
aid. It is not an automatic vehicle 
parking function or an automatic 
parking brake.
operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal 
pressed, from the time you release 
the brake pedal, without using the 
parking brake, you have approximately 
2
  seconds to move off before the 
vehicle starts to roll back.
During the moving off phase, the 
function is deactivated automatically, 
gradually releasing the braking 
pressure. During this phase, the 
characteristic noise of mechanical 
release of the brakes may be heard, 
indicating the imminent movement of 
the vehicle.
operating fault
Hill start assist is deactivated in the 
following situations:
-
 
when the clutch pedal is released,
-
 
when the parking brake is applied,
-
 
when the engine is switched of
 f,
-
 
when the engine stalls.
If a malfunction of the 
system occurs, this 
warning lamp comes on 
accompanied by an audible 
signal and confirmed by 
a message in the screen. Have the 
system checked by at a P
eugeo T 
dealer or a qualified workshop.

observe the driving regulations at all 
times 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
.
o
n a long journey, a break every 
two
  hours is strongly recommended.
In difficult weather, drive smoothly, 
anticipate the need to brake and 
increase the distance from other 
vehicles.
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 through 
water:
-
 
check that the depth of water does 
not exceed 15 cm, taking account 
of waves that might be generated 
by other users,
-
  
deactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
  
drive as slowly as possible without 
stallin
g. In all cases, do not 
exceed   6 mph (10 km/h),
-  do not stop and do not switch of f 
the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon 
as circumstances allow, make several 
light brake applications to dry the brake 
discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, 
contact a P
eugeo T dealer or a 
qualified workshop. Never drive with the parking brake 
applied - Risk of overheating and 
damage to the braking system!
Do not park or run the engine when 
stationary in areas where inflammable 
substances and materials (dry grass, 
dead leaves...) might come into contact 
with the hot exhaust system - Risk of 
fire!
Never leave a vehicle 
unsupervised 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.
