Notes
It is only possible to change from one gear to another if the vehicle speedand engine speed permit. If they donot, the vehicle will operate tempora-rily in automatic mode. When the vehicle is stationary or
moving very slowly, the gearboxautomatically selects gear M1.
Programmes S(sport) and (snow)
do not operate in manual mode. Operating abnormality
Any operating abnormality is shown by illumination of thiswarning light, accompaniedby an audible signal and themessage 'Automatic gear-
box faulty' on the multi-function dis-
play. 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).
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 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 function N when the
vehicle 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 accelera-
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 programmesIn addition to the auto-adaptive pro-gramme, there are two special pro-grammes.The programme is displayed on theinstrument panel screen. Sport programme
 Press button Sonce the vehicle
has been started and function D
selected.
The gearbox automatically favours sporty driving and more dynamicacceleration. Snow programme This programme improves starting
and drive when traction is poor.  Press button once the vehicle
has been started and function D
selected.
The gearbox adapts to driving onslippery roads. Note: you can return to the auto-
adaptive programme at any time.
 Press button S or again to switch
off the programme you are in.
Manual operation Manual changing of the four gears:
 select function M in the gate,
 push the lever to the +sign to
change to a higher gear,

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS) AND THEELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCEDISTRIBUTION (EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the electronic brake force distribution,increases the stability and manoe-vrability of your vehicle on braking, inparticular on poor or slippery roadsurfaces. 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
STOPand ABS warning
lights, accompanied by abuzzer and the message
'Braking fault' , it indicates that there
is a malfunction of the electronicbrake force distribution, which cancause a loss of control of the vehiclewhen 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 pedal. 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.

Operating check
When a malfunction of the sys- tems occurs, the switch lightflashes and the warning lightcomes on, accompanied by anaudible signal and the mes-
sage 'ESP/ASR system faulty' on the
multi-function display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system checked.
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 system,so that the wheels can move freelyand regain grip.
Press the 'ESP OFF'
switch, located under thesteering wheel to the left.
The switch lights up and thewarning light comes on,accompanied by an audiblesignal and the message
'ASR/ESP system de-acti-vated' on the multiÐfunction
display : the ASR and ESP systems
no longer have any effect on theengine operation. These are triggered again :
 automatically if the ignition is
switched off,
 manually by pressing the switchagain.DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP) AND
TRACTION CONTROL (ASR) These systems are linked and com-
plementary to the ABS system. In the event of a significant variation between the trajectory of the vehicle
and the path required by the driver,
the ESP system acts automaticallyon the engine and on the brake ofone or more wheels, to put the vehi-cle back on course. The traction control (ASR) system optimises drive, in order to avoid thewheels slipping, by acting on thebrakes of the drive wheels and onthe engine. It also enables the direc-tional stability of the vehicle to beimproved during acceleration. Operation of the ESP
and ASR systems
When one of the two sys-tems is in operation, thisindicator light flashes.
The ESP system offers exceptional safety in nor-mal driving, but this shouldnot encourage the driver totake 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

FRONT AIR BAGS These are folded in the centre of the steering wheel for the driver and in
the fascia for the front passenger.
They are deployed simultaneously,except in cases where the air bag isdisarmed. Front air bag malfunctionIf this warning light comes on, accompanied by abuzzer and the message"Air bag fault" on the multi-
function display, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer to have the sys-tem checked.
YOUR 607 IN DETAIL 133
AIR BAGS The air bags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occupantsin the event of serious collisions;they work in conjunction with theforce limiting seat belts. In the event of a serious collision, the electronic detectors record andanalyse any abrupt deceleration ofthe vehicle: if the triggering thresholdis reached, the air bags inflateinstantly and protect the occupantsof the vehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air
bags deflate rapidly, so that they donot hinder the visibility of the occu-pants nor their possible exit from thevehicle. The air bags will not be deployed in collisions which are not serious, for
which the seat belt is sufficient to
provide maximum protection. Theseriousness of the collision dependson the nature of the obstacle and thespeed of the vehicle at the momentof impact. Air bags only operate when the ignition is switched on. Note: the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant.
Disarming the passenger air bag*
To ensure the safety of your child, it is essential to disarm the pas-senger air bag when you install arear-facing child seat on the frontpassenger seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being killed or seriously injured ifthe air bag were to inflate.  With the ignition switched of f,
insert the key into the passenger air bag disarming switch 1, turn it
to the "OFF"position, then
remove the key keeping the slotin this position. The air bag warning light on the instrument panel is lit throughoutthe disarming process.
