Starting and stopping
HILL START ASSISTANCE
Operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal
pressed, from the time you release the
brake pedal you have approximately
2 seconds before the vehicle starts
to roll back and without using the
handbrake within which to move off.
During the moving off phase, the
function is deactivated automatically,
gradually releasing the braking
pressure. During this phase, the typical
noise of mechanical disengaging of
the brakes can be heard, indicating the
imminent movement of the vehicle. Anomaly
The hill start assistance is deactivated
in the following situations:
- when the clutch pedal is released,
- when the handbrake is applied,
- when the engine is switched off,
- when the engine stalls.
If a malfunction of the system
occurs, this warning light
comes on accompanied
by an audible signal and
c o n fi r m e d b y a m e s s a g e
on the display. Contact a PEUGEOT
dealer to have the system checked.
This function, linked with the ESP,
makes hill starts easier and is activated
in the following conditions:
- the vehicle must be stationary,
engine running, foot on the brake,
- the gradient of the road must be steeper than 5 %,
- uphill, the gearbox must be in neutral or in a gear other than
reverse,
- downhill, reverse gear must be engaged.

been running for a prolonged period
at very low speed or at idle, you may,
in exceptional circumstances, notice
the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust. This water vapour does not
have any adverse effect on vehicle
handling or the environment.
Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer .
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
check the thickness of the pads, even
between services.
