"PORSCHE TIPTRONIC SYSTEM" AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
Six speed automatic gearbox which of-
fers a choice between the comfort of
fully automatic operation, enhanced by
sport and snow programmes, or manual
gear changing.
Therefore, four driving modes are of-
fered:
- automatic operation for electronic
management of the gears by the
gearbox,
- sport programme for a more dy-
namic style of driving,
- snow programme to improve driv-
ing when traction is poor,
- manual operation for sequential
changing of the gears by the driver.

Moving off
With your foot on the brake, select
position P or N .
Start the engine.
If this procedure is not followed, an au-
dible signal is heard, accompanied by a
message on the multifunction screen.
With the engine running, press the
brake pedal.
Release the parking brake, unless it
is programmed to automatic mode.
Select position R , D or M ,
Gradually release the brake pedal.
The vehicle moves off immediately.
If position N is engaged inad-
vertently while driving, allow the
engine to return to idle then en-
gage position D to accelerate. The gearbox then operates in auto-
adaptive mode, without any intervention
on the part of the driver. It continuously
selects the most suitable gear accord-
i n g t o t h e s t y l e o f d r i v i n g , t h e p r o fi l e o f
the road and the load in the vehicle.
For maximum acceleration without
touching the lever, press the accelera-
tor pedal down fully (kick down). The
gearbox changes down automatically
or maintains the gear selected until the
maximum engine speed is reached.
On braking, the gearbox changes down
a u t o m a t i c a l l y t o p r o v i d e e f fi c i e n t e n g i n e

If you release the accelerator sharply,
the gearbox will not change to a higher
gear for safety reasons.

panel.
Snow programme "
"
Press button " ", after starting the
engine.
The gearbox adapts to driving on slip-
pery roads.
This programme improves starting and
drive when traction is poor.
S appears on the instrument
panel.
Sport programme "S"
Press button "S" , after starting the
engine.
The gearbox automatically favours a
dynamic style of driving.
Never select position N while
the vehicle is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless
the vehicle is completely stationary.
When the engine is running at
idle, with the brakes released,
if position
R , D or M is select-
ed, the vehicle moves even without
the accelerator being pressed.
When the engine is running, never
leave children in the vehicle without
supervision.
When carrying out maintenance with
the engine running, apply the parking
brake and select position P .
Sport and snow programmes
These two special programmes supple-
ment the automatic operation in very
s p e c i fi c c o n d i t i o n s o f u s e .
Return to automatic operation
At any time, press the button se-
lected again to quit the programme
engaged and return to auto-adaptive
mode.

Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you
can engage position P or N to place the
gearbox in neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake
to immobilise the vehicle, unless it is
programmed to automatic mode.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, the
lighting of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
multifunction screen, indicates
a gearbox malfunction.
In this case, the gearbox switches to
back-up mode and is 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), local
speed restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
This warning lamp may also come on if
a door is opened.
You risk damaging the gearbox:
- if you press the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time,
- if you force the lever from posi- tion P to another position when
t h e b a t t e r y i s fl a t .
To reduce fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
e n g i n e r u n n i n g ( t r a f fi c j a m . . . ) , p o s i -
tion the gear lever at N and apply
the parking brake, unless it is pro-
grammed in automatic mode.
Manual operation
Select position M for sequential
changing of the six gears.
Push the lever towards the + sign to
change up a gear.
Pull the lever towards the - sign to
change down a gear.
D disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succes-
sion on the instrument panel.
If the lever is not in position P ,
when the driver's door is opened
or approximately 45 seconds
after the ignition is switched off, an au-
dible signal is heard and a message
appears.
Return the lever to position P ; the
audible signal stops and the mes-
sage disappears.
It is only possible to change from one
gear to another if the vehicle speed and
engine speed permit; otherwise, the
gearbox will operate temporarily in au-
tomatic mode.
Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a
gear is not engaged correctly
(selector between two posi-
tions).
It is possible to change from position D
(automatic) to position M (manual) at
any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox selects gear M1
automatically.
The sport and snow programmes do not
operate in manual mode.
In the event of under-revving or over-
r e v v i n g , t h e g e a r s e l e c t e d fl a s h e s f o r a
few seconds, then the actual gear en-
gaged is displayed.

CHECKING LEVELS
Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.

corresponding system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Brake fluid level
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying
out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.
Oil level The reading will only be correct
if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for
more than 15 minutes.
The check is carried out either when the
ignition is switched on using the oil level
indicator on the instrument panel, or us-
ing the dipstick. T h e b r a k e fl u i d l e v e l s h o u l d b e

In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.

Coolant level
The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the tempera-
ture of the coolant is regulated by the fan.
This can operate with the ignition off.

Brake disc wear status
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the
style of driving, particularly in
the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It
may be necessary to have the
condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a
