Park: use with the handbrake when parked.
R. Reverse: this must only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary and the engine idling.
N. Neutral: if Nis engaged by mistake while the car is moving, allow the engine
to return to idling speed before engaging a new forward gear.
D. Drive: in this position, the four gear ratios change automatically. The gearchange points vary depending on the programme selected.
3. Automatic changes of the first three gears only. Select this position when you notice frequent changes between third and fourth gear (town driving or on winding roads).
2 Automatic changes of the first two gears only. This position is particularly suitable for mountain roads, when going uphill (to make the best use of the engine's power) and downhill (engine braking).

Any disruption of the system is signalled by thesimultaneous flashing ofthe Sport and Snow lightson the instrument panel. In
such a case, the gearbox will
operate in downgraded mode. Youmay feel a substantial knock whenreverse is selected from Por N
(without any risk of damage to thegearbox). Do not exceed 60 m.p.h. (100km/h). Contact a PEUGEOT dealer
without delay. When the engine is idling with the
car in gear, the car will move evenwithout you 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 hand-brake and select position P.
Do not change down to brake onslippery roads. Never select position Nwhen the
vehicle is moving.Never engage Por Rif the vehicle
is not stationary.Do not allow children inside the vehicle unsupervised when theengine is running.
Operating programmes
You have a choice of three operating programmes:
- Auto-adaptive (normal).
- Sport.
- 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 auto-adaptive(normal) programme. Auto-adaptive programme (normal) Gear changes are carried out on the basis of various parameters, such as:
- driving style,
- road characteristics,
- the vehicleÕs load.The gearbox continuously scans the
different programmes in the memoryand selects the one most suitable forthe driving conditions at any givenmoment. Sport programme The Sport programme favours perfor- mance for sporty driving and moredynamic acceleration. Snow Programme In position
Dthe Snow programme
provides smooth driving suited to slip- pery roads in order to improve trac-
tion and stability. Starting is in 2ndgear and changing down is at lowengine speeds. Special operating features
- During prolonged braking, the gearbox changes down automati-
cally, so as to provide efficientengine braking.
- If you take your foot off the accel- erator suddenly (when you aretaken by surprise, for example), thegearbox will not change up, so as to
improve safety.
-When the engine is cold, thegearbox automatically selects aspecial programme which enablesthe engine to reach its ideal tem-perature more quickly 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 changedown automatically or stay in the gearselected, up to maximum enginespeed.
