Moving off
With the engine running, to move off
from position P :
it is essential to press the brake
pedal,
release the handbrake,
select position R , D or M , then
gradually release the pressure
on the brake pedal; the vehicle
moves off immediately.
You can also move off from position N .
When the engine is at idle,
brakes not applied, if position
R , D or M is selected the
vehicle moves even without
the accelerator being pressed.
For this reason, do not leave
children unsupervised inside the
vehicle, with the engine running .
If the lever is not in position P , an
audible signal is heard and a message
appears when the driver’s door is
opened or approximately 45 seconds
after the ignition is switched off. Move
the lever to P . The audible signal
stops and the message disappears. When maintenance opera-
tions need to be carried out
with the engine running, ap-
ply the handbrake and select
position
P . Never select position
N when
the vehicle is moving.
Never select positions P
or R unless the vehicle is
stationary.
Never change between positions
to optimise braking on a slippery
surface.
Sport and snow programmes
In addition to the auto-adaptive
programme, there are two special
programmes.
The programme is displayed on the
instrument panel screen.
Automatic operation
Automatic changing of the four or
six gears:
select position D in the gate.
The gearbox automatically adapts the
gear in relation to the style of driving,
t h e r o a d p r o i l e a n d t h e v e h i c l e l o a d .
The gearbox is then operating in
auto-adaptive mode, without any
action on your part.
For immediate maximum acceleration
without touching the gear lever, press
the accelerator pedal down as far as
it will go (kick down). The gearbox
will automatically change down or
maintain the gear selected until
maximum engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox will
automatically change down in order
t o p r o v i d e e f i c i e n t e n g i n e b r a k i n g .
If you take your foot off the accelerator
suddenly, the gearbox will not
change to a higher gear for reasons
of safety. Sport programme
Press button S once the engine
has been started.
The gearbox automatically favours
sporty driving and more dynamic
acceleration.
Snow programme
This programme improves starting
and drive when traction is poor.
Press button once the engine
has been started.
The gearbox adapts to driving on
slippery 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 or six
gears:
select position M in the gate,
push the lever to the + sign to
change to a higher gear,
pull the lever to the - sign to
change to a lower gear.
You can change from position D
(driving in automatic mode) to
position M (driving in manual mode)
at any time.
Invalid value during manual
operation Notes
It is only possible to change from
one gear to another if the vehicle
speed and engine speed permit. If
they do not, the vehicle will operate
temporarily in automatic mode.
In the event of under-revving or over-
r e v v i n g , t h e g e a r s e l e c t e d l a s h e s f o r
a few seconds, then the actual gear
engaged is displayed.
When the vehicle is stationary or
moving very slowly, the gearbox
automatically selects gear
M1 .
Programme S (sport) and (snow)
do not operate in manual mode.
Operating abnormality
Any operating abnormality
is indicated by the
displaying of this warning
light, an audible signal and
a message on the multi-
function display.
In this situation the gearbox operates in
downgrade mode (locked in 3rd gear).
You may feel a substantial knock when
changing from P to R and from N to R
(this will not cause any damage to the
gearbox).
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h),
keeping within the limit of local speed
restrictions.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible.
I f t h e b a t t e r y i s l a t a n d t h e
lever is in position P , it will
be impossible to change to
another position.
Above all, do not force the lever
as there is a risk of damage to the
automatic gearbox.
This is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly
(selector between two
positions).
