Operating programmes
You have a choice of three operating pro- grammes:
Ð Autoadaptive (normal).
Ð Sport.
Ð Snow.One press on button
Aor Bwill select
Sport or Snow respectively. The selec- tion is displayed on the instrumentpanel. Pressing the button a secondtime will return to the autoadaptive(normal) programme. Autoadaptive programme (normal) Gear changes are carried out on the basis of various parameters, such as:
Ð driving style,
Ð road characteristics,
Ð vehicle load.The gearbox selects the most suitable programme from those in the memoryfor the current driving conditions. Sport programme The Sport programme automatically favours more dynamic driving. Snow Programme In position
D, the Snow programme
provides smooth driving suited to slip- pery roads in order to improve traction
and stability. Starting is in 2nd gear
and changing down is at low enginespeeds. Special operating features
Ð During prolonged braking, the gear- box changes down automatically, so
as to provide efficient engine braking.
Ð If you take your foot off the acceler- ator suddenly (when you are takenby surprise, for example), the gear-box will not change up, so as to
improve safety.
Ð When the engine is cold, the gearbox automatically selects a special pro-gramme that enables the engine toreach its ideal temperature morequickly in order to decrease pollution.
Kickdown For immediate maximum acceleration
without touching the gear lever, pressthe accelerator pedal down as far as it
will go. The gearbox will change downautomatically or stay in the gearselected, up to maximum enginespeed.Any disruption of the system is signalled by the simultane-ous flashing of the Sport andSnow lights on the instru-
ment panel. In such a case, the gear-box will operate in downgrade mode.
You may feel a substantial knock whenreverse is selected from Pto Ror Nto
R (without any risk of damage to the
gearbox). Do not exceed 100km/h.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer without
delay. When the engine is idling with the car
in gear, the car will move even withoutyou accelerating. Do not accelerate while a gear is being selected, when the vehicle is
stationary.
When stationary, have your foot on the
brake pedal when selecting a gear. Do not accelerate in gear with the brakes on. If work needs to be done with the engine running, apply the handbrakeand select position P.
Do not change down to brake on slip-pery roads. Never select position Nwhen the
vehicle is moving.Never engage Por Rif the vehicle is
not stationary.Do not leave children inside the vehicle unsupervised when theengine is running.

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP) These systems are linked and comple-
ment the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to prevent the wheels skidding, by actingon the brakes of the drive wheels andon the engine. It also allows the direc-tional stability of the vehicle to beimproved on acceleration. If there is a variation between the tra- jectory followed by the vehicle and that
required by the driver, the ESP systemautomatically acts on the engine andthe brake of one or more wheels, inorder to put the vehicle back oncourse.Disarming the ASR/ESP systems In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down, stuck in
snow, on soft ground), it may be advis-
able to disarm the ASR and ESP sys-tems, so that the wheels can movefreely and regain grip. 
Press the "ESP OFF" switch,
located under the steering wheel to the right.
The switch lights up and thewarning light comes on: the
ASR and ESP systems no
longer have any effect on theengine operation.
These are triggered again:  automatically if the ignition is
switched off,
 automatically above 30 m. ph. (50km/h),
 manually by pressing the switchagain.
Operation of the ASR and ESPsystems
When one of these two sys-tems is operating, this lightflashes. Operating check
When a malfunction of the sys-tems occurs, the switch lightflashes and the warning lightcomes on, accompanied by anaudible signal and the mes-
sage "ESP/ASR system not opera-
tional" on the multifunction display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have thesystem checked.
The ESP system offersexceptional safety in normaldriving, but this should notencourage the driver to takeextra risks or drive at high
speed. The correct functioning of this sys- tem depends on observation of themanufacturer's recommendationsregarding wheels (tyres and rims),the braking components and theelectronic components, as well asthe PEUGEOT assembly and opera-tion procedures. After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

CHECKING LEVELS Engine oil Oil level check Carry out this check regularly and top up between oil changes
; the
maximum consumption is 0.5 litre per600 miles (1000 km). The check must be carried out with the vehicle level and the engine cold..
There are two levelmarks on the dipstick: A= maximum.
B = minimum. Viscosity grade selectionThe oil selected must always meet the manufacturer's requirements. Oil filter Change the cartridge regularly in accordance with the recommenda-tions of the servicing schedule. Used oil
Avoid any prolonged contact of used oil with the skin. Do not discard used oil down drains or onto the ground.
To maintain the reliability of the engines and emission control sys-tems, the use of additives in the oil isprohibited. Brake fluid reservoir
Ð The level must always be above the
DANGER mark on the tank.
Ð In the event of a significant drop in the level, contact a PEUGEOT deal-
er immediately. Fluid change
Ð Always to be carried out at the inter-
vals given in the manufacturer's ser- vicing schedule.
Ð Use fluids approved by the manu- facturer which comply with DOT4standards.
Coolant reservoir Use a coolant approved by the manu-
facturer. When the engine is warm, the coolant
temperature is controlled by the fan.This may operate with the ignition key
removed. Therefore, as the coolingcircuit is pressurised, wait at least an
hour after switching off the enginebefore carrying out any work.
In the event of a breakdown and to
avoid any risk of burns, unscrew thecap two turns to let the pressure drop.When the pressure has dropped,remove the cap and top up the level.
Oil change: in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Ð Dipstick: never exceed the maximum mark A.
Ð Instrument dial gauge.

Power steering reservoir
Open the reservoir, with the engine
cold. The level should always beabove the MINI mark, close to theMAXI mark.
Windscreen wash reservoir For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we recommend that you useproducts approved by PEUGEOT(capacity 2.8 litres). Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. Air filter Regular replacement of the filter ele- ment is essential. If you drive in verydusty conditions, change it twice asoften. Brake pads Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular for vehicleswhich are used in town, for short jour-neys. It may be necessary to checkthe thickness of the pads evenbetween services. Manual gearbox This does not need an oil change: have the level checked by a PEU-
GEOT dealer according to the manu-facturer's servicing schedule. Autoadaptive automatic gearbox This does not need an oil change: have the level checked by a PEU-
GEOT dealer according to the manu-facturer's servicing schedule.Only use products appro-
ved by PEUGEOT.
To ensure best perfor-mance from components
as important as the power steeringand the braking system, PEUGEOTselects and offers quite specificproducts.
