'PORSCHE TIPTRONIC SYSTEM' AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
The four speed automatic gearbox
offers a choice between the comfort
of integral automatic operation , en-
hanced by a sport and a snow pro-
gramme, or manual gear changing . Gear selection gate
Move the lever in the gate to se-
lect a position.
The indicator light corresponding to the position selected appears
on the instrument panel screen.
P ark: to immobilise the vehicle and
to start the engine , with the hand-
brake on or off.
R everse: to reverse (select this
position with the vehicle stationary,
engine at idle).
N eutral: to start the engine and to
park , with the handbrake on.
If position N is inadvertently engaged
while driving, allow the engine to re-
turn to idle before engaging position
D to accelerate.
D rive: for driving in automatic mode.
M anual: for selection of gears.
S : sport programme.
: snow programme. 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 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 :
release the handbrake, with your
foot on the brake,
select position R, D or M , then
gradually release the pressure
on the brake pedal; the vehicle
moves off immediately.
Starting the engine
with the handbrake on, select po-
sition P or N in the gate,
turn the ignition key to the Start
position.
WARNING
When the engine is at idle, brakes not
applied, if position R, D or M is se-
lected, the vehicle moves even with-
out the accelerator being pressed.
For this reason, do not leave chil-
dren unsupervised inside the
vehicle, with the engine running.
When maintenance operations need
to be carried out with the engine run-
ning, apply the handbrake and select
position P .

69DRIVING-
Automatic operation
Automatic changing of the four
gears:
select position D in the gate.
The gearbox always selects the most
suitable gear according to the follow-
ing parameters:
- t h e r o a d p r o fi l e ,
- the vehicle load.
The gearbox is then operating in
auto-adaptive mode, without any ac-
tion on your part. If you take your foot off the accel-
erator suddenly, the gearbox will not
change to a higher gear for reasons
of safety.
Manual operation
Manual changing of the four 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 posi-
tion M (driving in manual mode) at
any time.
WARNING
Never select position N when the ve-
hicle is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless
the vehicle is stationary.
Never change between positions to
optimise braking on a slippery sur-
face.
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 down
or maintain the gear selected until
maximum engine speed is reached.
When the brake is applied, the gear-
box will automatically change down
i n o r d e r t o p r o v i d e e f fi c i e n t e n g i n e
braking. 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.
Sport programme
Press button S once the engine
has been started.
The gearbox automatically favours
sporty driving and more dynamic ac-
celeration.
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.
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 tempo-
rarily in automatic mode.
When the vehicle is stationary or
moving very slowly, the gearbox au-
tomatically selects gear M1 .
Programmes S (sport) and (snow)
do not operate in manual mode.
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.

HANDBRAKE
Operating abnormality
Any operating abnormality is indi-
cated by an audible signal, accom-
panied by the message 'Automatic
gear fault' on the multi-function dis-
play, by a "-" a n d fl a s h i n g o f t h e
Sport and Snow warning lights on the
instrument panel display.
In this situation the gearbox oper-
ates in downgrade mode (locked in
3rd gear). You may feel a substan-
tial 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),
respecting local speed limits.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. Illumination of this warning light
and of the STOP warning light,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal (while the vehicle is being
driven) and the message "hand-
brake on" on the multifunction display,
indicates that the handbrake is still on or
has not been properly released.
Releasing
Pull on the handle and press the but-
ton to release the handbrake.
I f t h e b a t t e r y i s fl a t a n d t h e
lever is in position P , it will
be impossible to change
to another position.
In particular, do not force
the lever or there is a risk the gear-
box may be damaged. When parking on a slope,
direct your wheels towards
the pavement and pull the
handbrake.
Applying
Pull the handbrake to immobilise
your vehicle.
