Operating programmes
You have a choice of three operating programmes:
- Autoadaptive (normal).
- Sport.
- Snow.One press on button
Aor Bwill
select Sport or Snow respectively. The selection is displayed on theinstrument panel. Pressing the but-ton a second time will return to theautoadaptive (normal) programme. Autoadaptive programme (normal) Gear changes are carried out on the basis of various parameters, suchas:
- driving style,
- road characteristics,
- vehicle load.The gearbox selects the most suit- able programme from those in thememory for the current driving con-ditions. Sport programme The Sport programme automatically favours more dynamic driving. Snow Programme In position
D, the Snow programme
provides smooth driving suited to slippery roads in order to improve
traction and stability. Starting is in2nd gear and changing down is at
low engine 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),the gearbox will not change up,
so as to improve safety.
- When the engine is cold, the gearbox automatically selects aspecial programme that enablesthe engine to reach its ideal tem-perature more quickly in order todecrease pollution.
Kickdown For immediate maximum accelera-
tion without touching the gear lever,press the accelerator pedal down as
far as it will go. The gearbox willchange down automatically or stayin the gear selected, up to maximumengine speed.Any disruption of the system is signalled by the simultane-ous flashing of the Sport andSnow lights on the instrument
panel. In such a case, the gearbox
will operate in downgrade mode. Youmay feel a substantial knock whenreverse is selected from Pto R or N
to R(without any risk of damage to
the gearbox). Do not exceed 60 mph (100km/h).Contact a PEUGEOT dealer without
delay. When the engine is idling with the car
in gear, the car will move even with-out 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 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 Runless the vehi-
cle is stationary.Do not leave children inside the vehi- cle unsupervised when the engine isrunning.

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP) These systems are linked and com-
plement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to prevent the wheels skidding, by act-ing on the brakes of the drive wheelsand on the engine. It also allows thedirectional stability of the vehicle tobe improved on acceleration. If there is a variation between the tra- jectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESPsystem automatically acts on theengine and the brake of one or morewheels, in order to put the vehicleback on course. Disarming the ASR/
ESP systems In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down, stuck
in snow, on soft ground), it may be
advisable to disarm the ASR and
ESP systems, so that the wheels canmove freely 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 aredisarmed.
These are triggered again: automatically if the ignition is
switched off,
manually by pressing the switchagain.
Operation of the ASR and ESPsystems
The warning light flashes if
the ASR or ESP is activated.Operating checkWhen a malfunction of the systems occurs, the switchlight flashes and the warninglight comes on.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to havethe system checked.
The ESP system offers exceptional safety in nor-mal driving, but thisshould not encourage thedriver to take extra 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 andoperation procedures. After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

PUNCTURES Because this version does not pos- sess a spare wheel, you have twoaerosols for temporary tyre repairsstored in an insulated storage box
1
secured by a strap to the right-handside of the boot. Using a repair aerosol (See also the instructions on the aerosols).
If possible remove the foreign body which caused the puncture.
Position the wheel so that thevalve is at the 2 o'clock or 10o'clock position.
Shake the aerosol vigorously
before use. (In very cold weather,warm the aerosol for a few min-utes in your hands).
In one hand hold the valve.
With the other, firmly push thespray end of the aerosol onto thevalve, keeping it centralised.
Maintain the pressure firmly forone minute, then immediatelydrive at moderate speed to the
nearest garage. Aersosols enable a tem-porary repair to be car-ried out (maximum speed50 mph (80 km/h)).
After use, it is necessary toreplace the tyre. Because the aerosols are pres- surised, they must not be exposedto a temperature higher than
50 ¡C. Keep them away from heat in their insulated storage box.

BODYWORK MAINTENANCE
To preserve the paintwork and the plastic trim on your vehicle, we rec-ommend that you wash them regu-
larly.
- by hand: there are no specific pre-
cautions to take;
- using an automatic car wash: repeated use of poorly maintained automatic car washes can lead tothe appearance of microscopicscratches which give the paint-work a matt appearance (espe-cially visible on dark colours);
- using a high pressure washer: always follow the recommenda-tions on the equipment (pressureand spraying distance). If there are damaged areas on the vehicle (painted bumpers orheadlamps), it is not recommend-ed to direct the high pressure jet
onto them. Wash these areas byhand. Also avoid the entry of water into the locks.
For all questions relating to themaintenance of your vehicle, con-tact an approved dealer who canadvise you on quality productsselected by our departments. Clean off bird droppings,resinous deposits, tarstains and grease marks assoon as possible; (these all
contain substances which cancause serious damage to thepaintwork).
- Do not use a dry or abrasive cloth, or detergent or solventproducts to clean the doublelens, complex surface head-lamps as they are fitted withpolycarbonate glass covered in aprotective finish.
- Do not use petrol, oil or cloth stain removers to clean thebodywork and plastic parts ofyour vehicle.
- To prevent the development of bodywork corrosion as a result ofaccidental damage (stone chips,scratches etc.), have them
repaired swiftly.
