PORSCHE TIPTRONIC system' AUTOMATIC GEARBOX The four speed automatic gearbox offers a choice between the comfort of inte-
gral automatic operation , enhanced by a sportand 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 screen.
S: sport programme.
$ : snow programme.
P ark: to immobilise the vehicle and to start the
engine , with the handbrake on or off.
R everse: to reverse(select this function with the vehi-
cle stationary, engine at idle). N eutral: to start the engine and to park, with the hand-
brake on. Note: if position Nis inadvertently engaged while dri-
ving, allow the engine to return to idle before engaging function Dto accelerate.

Moving Off
With the engine running, to move off from position P:
 it is essential to press the brake
pedal to exit position P,
 select function R, D or M, then
gradually release the pressure onthe brake pedal; the vehicle
moves off immediately.
You can also move off from positionN :
 release the handbrake, with yourfoot on the brake,
 select function R, D or M, then
gradually release the pressure onthe brake pedal; the vehicle
moves off immediately.
WARNING When the engine is at idle, brakes not applied, if function R, D or Mis

Notes It is only possible to change from one gear to another if the vehicle speed and enginespeed permit. If they do not, the vehicle willoperate temporarily in automatic mode. When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox automaticallyselects gear M1.
Programmes S(sport) and $(snow) do not
operate in manual mode.
Operating abnormality Any operating abnormality isshown by illumination of this warn-ing light, accompanied by an audi-ble signal and the message 'Auto-
matic gearbox faulty' on the
multi-function display. In this situation the gearbox operates in
downgrade mode (locked in 3rd gear). Youmay feel a substantial knock when selectingreverse from Pto Rand from Nto R(this will
not cause any damage to the gearbox). Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.Automatic operation Automatic changing of the four gears:
select function Din the gate.
The gearbox always selects the most suitable gear according to the follow-ing parameters:
Ð the style of driving,
Ð the road profile,
Ð the vehicle load.The gearbox is then operating in auto- adaptive mode, without any action onyour part.
WARNING Never select function N when the vehi-
cle is moving.Never select functions Por Runless
the vehicle is stationary.Never change betwen functions to optimise braking on a slippery surface. Notes For immediate maximum acceleration
without touching the gear lever, pressthe accelerator pedal down as far as it
will go (kickdown). The gearbox willautomatically change down or main-tain the gear selected until maximumengine speed is reached. When the brake is applied, the gear- box will automatically change down in
order to provide efficient engine brak-ing.
If you take your foot off the accelerator
suddenly, the gearbox will not change
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 theinstrument panel screen. Sport programme

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYS-
TEM (ABS) AND THE ELEC-TRONIC BRAKE FORCE DIS-TRIBUTION (EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the electronic brake force distribution,increases the stability and manoe-vrability of your vehicle, particularlyon poor or slippery road surfaces. Note:when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are approved. The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically whenthere is a risk of wheel lock.
When this warning lightcomes on, accompanied bya buzzer and the message"ABS fault" , it indicates
that there is a malfunction of
the ABS, which can cause a loss ofcontrol of the vehicle when braking.
When this warning lightcomes on, connected to the
STOP warning light, accom-panied by a buzzer and themessage 'Braking fault' , it
indicates that there is a malfunctionof the electronic brake force distribu-tion, which can cause a loss ofcontrol of the vehicle when braking.

EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system enables the optimum braking pres-
sure to be reached more quickly,thus reducing the stopping distance. It is triggered by the speed at which
the brake pedal is activated. The
effect of this is a reduction in theresistance of the pedal and an
increase in braking efficiency. Stop immediately. In both cases, consult a Peugeot
dealer.
Normal operation of the ABS maymake itself felt by slight vibrationsof the brake system. In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasingthe pressure.
MANUAL GEARBOX Reverse*
To change to reverse gear, lift the ring under the gear lever knob andpush the gear lever to the left then tothe front. Reverse gear can only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary withthe engine idling.
* According to engine.
