Gearbox and steering wheel
Stopping - Starting on a slope
This gearbox is a piloted manual gearbox
which does not have a clutch pedal.
Do not use the accelerator pedal to
immobilise the vehicle on a slope, apply
the handbrake instead.
When moving off on a slope, accelerate
gradually while releasing the
handbrake.
Switching to sequential mode
Once you have moved off, you can switch to
sequential mode by selecting position M .
"AUTO" disappears and the
gears engaged appear in
succession on the instrument
panel display.
The gear change requests are only carried
out if the engine speed permits it.
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal
gently to engage the gear.
At low speeds, when approaching a stop
or traffic lights for example, the gearbox
changes down to first gear automatically.
Switching to automated mode
After using the sequential mode, you can
return to the automated mode by selecting
position A .
"AUTO" and the gear engaged
appear on the instrument panel
display.
The gearbox then operates in
auto-active mode, without any action on the
part of the driver.
It continuously selects the gear most suited
to the following parameters:
- driving style,
- road characteristics,
- vehicle load.
To optimise driving comfort and obtain the
most suitable gear, avoid sharp variations in
the pressure on the accelerator pedal.
If you press the accelerator pedal beyond
the point of resistance, the gearbox
selects the gear below to permit sharper
acceleration.
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can:
- move to position N to leave the gearbox
in neutral.
- leave a gear engaged, such as first or reverse.
In both cases, it is imperative that you apply
the handbrake to immobilise the vehicle.
Reinitialisation
Following disconnection of the battery, the
gearbox must be reinitialised:
- switch on the ignition, "AUTO" appears
on the instrument panel display,
- press the brake pedal,
- wait approximately 30 seconds until "N"
or a gear appears on the instrument
panel display,
- release the brake pedal.
The gearbox is operational again.
Operating anomaly
With the ignition on, the flashing
of "AUTO" and lighting of this
warning light, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message
on the instrument panel display, indicate a
gearbox malfunction.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. The brake pedal must be pressed while
starting the engine.
Never select neutral N while the vehicle is
moving.
Only engage reverse gear R with the vehicle
immobilised and the brake pedal pressed.
In all cases, it is imperative that you apply
the handbrake in order to immobilise the
vehicle.
On a steep gradient, it is preferable to
switch to sequential mode.

explosion. If the battery has frozen, before
charging it have it checked by a specialist who
will check that the internal components have
not been damaged and that the container is
not cracked, which could mean that there is a
risk of a leak of toxic and corrosive acid.
STARTING FROM ANOTHER BATTERY
- connect the red cable to the metal point A then to the positive (+) terminal of
the slave battery B ,
- connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative (-) terminal of the
slave battery B ,
- connect the other end of the green or black cable to the earth point C on your
vehicle,
- operate the starter, let the engine run,
- wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables.
