RADIO Notes on radio reception
Your car radio receiver is subject to phenomena which do not affect domestic sets. Both MW/LW and FM recep- tion are subject to various forms of interference which are not a reflection on the quality of your set, but are dueto the nature of the signals and the way in which they are transmitted.
On MW/LW, interference may be noticed when passing underneath high voltage power lines or bridges or in tunnels.
On FM, interference may be the result of distance from the transmitter, reflection of the signal by obstacles (moun-
tains, hills, buildings etc), or of being in an area which is not covered by a transmitter. Selecting the radio Press the " J" button.
Selecting a waveband By short presses on the Ò JÓ button, you can select the FM1, FM2, FM3 and AM wavebands.
Automatic station searchBriefly press button Ò GÓ or Ò HÓ to search for the station immediately above or below. By continuing to press the button
in the direction selected, you will obtain continuous scrolling of the frequency. The scrolling stops on the first station found immediately after you release the button.
If TA, traffic information programme, is selected, only stations broadcasting this type of programme are selected.Searching for a station occurs first in Ò LOÓ sensitivity (selection of the most powerful transmitters) during
scanning of the waveband, then in Ò DXÓ sensitivity (selection of the weakest and most distant transmitters).
To scan the waveband in Ò DXÓ sensitivity, press twice on button Ò GÓ or Ò HÓ.
Manual station search Press the Ò MANÓ button.
Briefly press button ÒGÓor ÒHÓ respectively to increase or reduce the frequency displayed.
By continuing to press the button in the direction selected, you will obtain continuous scrolling of the frequency. Scrolling stops as soon as you release the button.Pressing the ÒMANÓbutton again returns you to automatic station search.

DRIVING YOUR 306
106
Any disruption of the system is signalled by thesimultaneous flashing of theSport and Snow lights onthe instrument panel. In
such a case, the gearbox will operate
in downgraded mode. You may feela substantial knock when reverse isselected from Por N(without any risk
of damage to the gearbox). 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

- 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 automatically,
so as to provide efficient enginebraking.
- If you take your foot off the accel- erator suddenly (when you are taken 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.
