'PORSCHE TIPTRONIC SYSTEM' AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
The six speed automatic gearbox
offers, as required, the comfort of the
auto-adaptive programme enhanced
by a selection suited to dynamic
driving conditions: sport, or to driving
on a slippery road: snow.
However, manual selection is still pos-
sible using the gear lever.
Moving Off
With the engine running, move off from
position P :

 to exit position P, it is essential
to press the brake pedal,

 select position R , D or M , then
gradually release the pressure on
the brake pedal; the vehicle moves
off immediately.
To move off from position N :

 with your foot on the brake, release
the handbrake,

 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 posi-
tion P or N in the gate,

 turn the ignition key. Always keep your foot on the
brake on a steep incline.
When the engine is at idle,
brakes not applied, if posi-
tion R , D or M is selected, the vehicle
moves even without the accelerator
being pressed.

Do not leave children unsupervised
inside the vehicle, with position
R, D or M selected, with the en-
gine running, as the vehicle moves
even without the accelerator being
pressed.
With the ignition off, if the
lever is not in position P , an
audible signal is heard when
the driver's door is opened, or
after approximately 45 seconds. Move
the lever to position P . The audible
signal ceases.

When maintenance opera-
tions need to be carried out
with the engine running, apply
the handbrake and select the

P ark position. Sport and Snow programmes
These are two special programmes.
The programme selected is displayed
on the instrument panel screen. 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.
When the vehicle is stationary or
moving very slowly, the gearbox auto-
matically selects gear M1 .
Programmes S (sport) and  (snow)
do not operate in manual gear selec-
tion mode.
Any operating abnormality is
indicated by lighting of this
warning light, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message on the multi-func-
tion 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) or
keep within local speed limits.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible.
Operating check
Operation with manual selection of the gears

 select position M in the gate,

 push the lever to the + sign to
change up a gear and push again
to change up another gear,

 pull the lever to the - sign to change
down a gear and pull again to
change down another gear.
You can change from position D
(driving in automatic mode) to posi-
tion M (driving in manual mode) at any
time.
The auto-adaptive programme

 select position D in the gate: the
gearbox operates in auto-adap-
tive mode, without any action on
your part, taking into account the
following parameters:
- the style of driving,
- the profi le of the road,
- the vehicle load.
To obtain maximum acceleration
without touching the lever, press the
accele rator down fully (kick down).
The programme will change down
automatically or will stay in the gear
selected until the maximum engine
speed is reached.
When the brake is applied, the pro-
gramme will change down automati-
cally in order to provide effi cient engine
braking. Sport programme

 Press button S once the vehicle
has been started in position D , the
auto-adaptive programme favours
dynamic driving
Snow programme
This programme improves starting and
drive when traction is poor.

 Press button  once the vehicle
has been started and position D
has been selected, the auto-adap-
tive programme adjusts the perfor-
mance of the vehicle to the condi-
tion of the slippery road.
You can deactivate the Sport or Snow
programme at any time by pressing
the button selected.
Releasing the accelerator
sharply does not have any im-
mediate effect on the speed of
the vehicle.
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 sur-
face. If the battery is fl at and the
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 gearbox may be
damaged.

Used oil
Do not dispose of used oil,
brake fl uid or coolant into
drains or onto the ground.
Windscreen and headlamp wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, to see and be seen, we would
advise that you use products of the

PEUGEOT dealer.
Battery
CHECKS
Have the fi lter elements re-
placed regularly. If you drive
in dusty conditions, change
them twice as often.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Brake pad wear depends
on the style of driving, in
parti cular for vehicles which
are used in town, over short
distances.
Brake pads
It may be necessary to check
the thickness of the pads,
even between services. Where the handbrake travel is
too great or there is a reduc-
tion in the performance of the
system, the handbrake should
be adjusted.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Handbrake
To ensure the best perfor-
mance from components as
important as the power stee-
ring and the braking system,
the manufacturer selects and offers
specifi c products, only use products
recommended by PEUGEOT .
To prevent damage to the electrical
units, high pressure washing of the
engine compartment is strictly prohib-
ited .
Use the fl uid recommended by the
manufacturer.

 Open the reservoir, with the engine
at ambient temperature, the level
should always be above the MIN
mark, close to the MAX mark.
Particle emission filter - Additive reservoir (Diesel)
It is imperative that the maintenance
of the particle emission fi lter and the
fi lling of the additive reservoir are
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer in
accordance with the manufacturer's
servicing schedule.
Disc wear status
For any information relating to checking
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
