"PORSCHE TIPTRONIC SYSTEM" AUTOMATIC GEARBOX The four speed automatic gearbox offers a choice between the comfort of inte-
gral automatic operation , enhanced by a sport and a snow programme, or the
pleasure of manual gear changing.
Gear selection gate Move the lever in the gate to select a function. Once the function is selected, the corresponding indicator light appears on
the instrument panel display.

Automatic operation Automatic changing of the four
gears: select function Din the gate.
The gearbox always selects the most suitable gear according to the follo-wing parameters:
- the style of driving,
- the road profile,
- the vehicle load. The gearbox is then operating in auto-adaptive mode, without anyaction on your part.
WARNING Never select position Nwhen the
vehicle is moving. Never select functions Por Runless

tion without touching the gear lever,press the accelerator pedal down as
far as it will go (kickdown). The gear-box will automatically change downor maintain the gear selected untilmaximum engine speed is reached. When the brake is applied, the gear- box will automatically change down
in order to provide efficient enginebraking. If you take your foot off the accelera-
tor suddenly, the gearbox will notchange to a higher gear for reasons
of safety. Sport and snow programmes In addition to the auto-adaptive pro- gramme, there are two special pro-grammes. The programme is displayed on the instrument panel screen. Sport programme

Operating abnormality Any operating abnormality is indica- ted by an audible signal accompa-nied by the message "Automatic
gearbox faulty" on the multi-func-
tion display and flashing of the Sportand Snow warning lights on the ins-trument panel. In this situation the gearbox operates in downgrade mode (locked in 3rd
gear). You may feel a substantialknock when changing from Pto R
and from Nto R(this will not cause
any damage to the gearbox). Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), speed restrictions permitting.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible. Illumination of this warninglight comes on, accompa-nied by an audible signaland the message

If the battery is flat and the lever is in position
P, it
will be impossible tochange to another posi-tion.
Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrationsof the brake pedal. In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasingthe pressure.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system enables the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, thus reducingthe stopping distance. It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is activated, the effect ofwhich is a reduction in the resistance ofthe pedal and an increase in braking
efficiency.
