"Normal" automatic mode
Select position D .
"D" appears on the instrument panel
screen.
The gearbox then operates in automatic
mode, without any action on the part of
the driver.
To optimise driving comfort and obtain
the most suitable gear, avoid sharp vari-
ations in the pressure on the accelera-
tor pedal.
"Temporary" manual mode
In automatic mode, you can take
control temporarily at any time using
the steering mounted controls.
The use of these controls permits man-
ual selection of the gears in situations
which require a faster changedown than
that offered in automatic mode (arrival
at a roundabout, exit from a car park
with a steep gradient, overtaking...).
The gearbox engages the gear re-
quested if the engine speed permits it.
The gear engaged appears.
To return to the automatic mode, press
the back of the "+/OFF" control for at
least 2 seconds.
"Sport" automatic mode
From automatic mode, you can engage
"Sport" mode.
With the vehicle moving or stationary,
push the thumbwheel A forward.
"SPORT" appears on the instrument
panel screen.
Switching off "Sport" automatic
mode
You can return to "Normal" automatic
mode at any time:
Push the thumbwheel A rearward
once. Before switching off the engine, you
must engage position
P or N to place
the gearbox in neutral.
You must apply the parking brake to im-
mobilise the vehicle.
The gear lever must be in position P
to
remove the ignition key.
Stopping the vehicle
Hill start assist
To assist you when starting on a gradi-
e n t , y o u r v e h i c l e i s fi t t e d w i t h a s y s t e m
w h i c h i m m o b i l i s e s i t b r i e fl y ( a p p r o x i -
mately 2 seconds), the time required to
move your foot from the brake pedal to
the accelerator pedal. This function is
only active when the vehicle has been
completely immobilised with your foot
on the brake pedal and on certain gra-
dients.
Do not get out of the vehicle during
the hill start
assist
temporary immo-
bilisation phase.
To immobilise the vehicle on a gradient
for a longer period, you must use the
parking brake, not the accelerator.
When starting on a gradient, accelerate
gradually while releasing the parking
brake.

celerating to the required speed,

The controls of this system are grouped
together on the steering wheel.
1. "ON/OFF" button: activation/deacti-
vation of the cruise control mode.
2. "COAST SET" button: storing of a
driving speed and decreasing of the
cruising speed.
3. "ACC RES" button: increasing of
the cruising speed and recalling of
the stored speed.

indicator comes on in the instrument
panel.
Steering mounted controls Display on the instrument panel
The cruise control cannot, in any cir-
cumstances, take the place of the
need to comply with speed limits or
of the vigilance and responsibility of
the driver.
System which automatically maintains
the vehicle speed at the value pro-
grammed by the driver, without any ac-
tion on the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is
switched on
manually: the vehicle speed must be
25 mph (40 km/h) minimum and sec-
ond gear must be engaged in the case
of a manual gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off man-
ually, by an action on the brake or clutch
pedal or if the ASC system is triggered.
The programmed speed can be ex-
ceeded temporarily by pressing the
accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.
