ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESC)
Electronic Stability Programme (ESC:
Electronic Stability Control) incorporating
the following systems:


- the anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and the electronic brake force distri-
bution (EBFD),

- the emergency braking assistance,

- the anti-slip regulation (ASR) or
traction control,

- the dynamic stability control (DSC).


Definitions


Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Trac-
tion Control) optimises traction in order
to avoid wheel slip by acting on the
brakes of the driving wheels and on the
engine. It also improves the directional
stability of the vehicle on acceleration.

Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that re-
quired by the driver, the DSC monitors
each wheel and automatically acts on
the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to return the vehicle to
the required path, within the limits of the
laws of physics.


Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables
you to reach the optimum braking pres-
sure more quickly and therefore reduce
the stopping distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at
which the brake pedal is pressed. This
is felt by a reduction in the resistance of
the pedal and an increase in the effec-
tiveness of the braking.
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking and offers improved control in
corners, in particular on poor or slippery
road surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution
system manages the braking pressure
wheel by wheel.

When this warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message,
it indicates that there is a fault
with the ABS, which could cause loss of
control of the vehicle when braking.

When this warning lamp
comes on, coupled with the
STOP
warning lamp, accom-
panied by an audible signal
and a message, it indicates that there
is a fault with the electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD), which could cause
loss of control of the vehicle when braking.

You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.

In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that
these are approved for your
vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations of
the brake pedal.


In emergency braking, press
very fi rmly without releasing
the pressure.

(EBFD)
Snow driving assistance(Intelligent Traction Control)
Your vehicle has a system to help driving
on snow: Intelligent Traction Control.
This automatic system continuously
checks for situations of diffi cult surface
adhesion that could make it diffi cult to
move off or make progress on deep
fresh snow or compacted snow.
In these situations, Intelligent Traction
Control
limits the amount of wheel slip to
provide the best traction and trajectory control.

In extremely severe conditions (deep snow,
mud…), it can be useful to temporarily de-
activate the ESP/ASR
systems to allow a
degree of wheel spin and so recover grip.
It is recommended that the system be
reactivated as soon as possible.
Snow tyres are strongly recommended on
surfaces offering low levels of adhesion.

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 in 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
or a qualifi ed workshop.
This warning lamp may also come on if
a door is opened.

You risk damaging the gear-
box:
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 in the instrument panel.

If the lever is not in position P
,
when the driver's door is opened
or approximately 45 seconds af-
ter the ignition is switched off, there is an
audible signal 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 (selec-
tor between two positions).

It is possible to change from position D

(automatic) to position M
(manual) at
any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or mov-
ing very slowly, the gearbox selects
gear M1
automatically.
The sport and snow programmes do not
operate in manual mode. If the engine speed is too low or too
high, the gear selected fl ashes for a few
seconds, then the actual gear engaged
is displayed.


- 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
the battery is fl at.
To reduce fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffi c jam...), posi-
tion the gear lever at N
and apply
the parking brake, unless it is pro-
grammed in automatic mode.

STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode -
during stops in the traffi c (red lights,
traffi c jams, or other...). The engine re-
starts automatically - START mode - as
soon as you want to move off. The re-
start takes place instantly, quickly and
silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise
level when stationary.

Operation


Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO"
warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and
the engine goes into standby:


-
with the electronic gearbox system
,
at speeds below 4 mph (6 km/h), press
the brake pedal or put the gear lever in
position N
.

If your vehicle is fi tted with the system,
a time counter calculates the sum of the
periods in STOP mode during a journey.
It rests itself to zero every time the igni-
tion is switched on with the key.
For your comfort, during park-
ing maoeuvres, STOP mode
is not available for a few sec-
onds after coming out of reverse
gear.
STOP mode does not affect the func-
tionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...

Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:


- the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not fas-
tened,

- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start
using the key,

- the electric parking brake is applied
or being applied,

- the engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the pas-
senger compartment,

- demisting is active,

-
some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a system.

In this case, the "ECO"
warning
lamp fl ashes for a few seconds
then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

TOWING A TRAILER, A CARAVAN, ETC.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it
may also be used for towing a trailer.

Driving advice


Side wind


)
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.


Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.


)
To lower the engine speed, reduce
your speed.
Towbar suitable for the attachment of a
trailer or caravan with additional lighting
and signalling.

Distribution of loads


)
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest items are as close
as possible to the axle and the nose
weight approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load
must be reduced by 10 % for every
1 000 metres of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section for
details of the weights and towed loads
which apply to your vehicle. Driving with a trailer places greater de-
mands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
We recommend the use of
genuine PEUGEOT towbars
and their harnesses that have
been tested and approved from the
design stage of your vehicle, and that
the fi tting of the towbar is entrusted
to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative
that it is fi tted in accordance with the
vehicle manufacturer's instructions.

General
recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in
your country.
Ensure that the weight of the tow-
ing vehicle is higher than that of the
towed vehicle.
The driver must stay at the wheel of
the towed vehicle.
Driving on motorways and fast roads
is prohibited when towing.
When towing a vehicle with all four
wheels on the ground, always use an
approved towing bar; rope and straps
are prohibited.
When towing a vehicle with the en-
gine off, there is no longer any power
assistance for braking or steering.
In the following cases, you must al-
ways call on a professional recovery
service:


- vehicle broken down on a motor-
way or fast road,

- when it is not possible to put the
gearbox into neutral, unlock the
steering, or release the parking
brake,

- towing with only two wheels on
the ground,

- where there is no approved towing
bar available...

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
211
The maximum towed load on a long in-
cline depends on the gradient and the
ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the cool-
ant temperature.

Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a
long mountain type of descent, the use
of engine braking is recommended.

Tyres


)
Check the tyre pressures of the tow-
ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ-
ing the recommended pressures.


Lighting


)
Check the electrical lighting and sig-
nalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will
be deactivated automatically if
a genuine PEUGEOT towbar
is used.


)
If the warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as
soon as possible.
FITTING ROOF BARS

Maximum authorised weight
on the roof rack, for a loading
height not exceeding 40 cm
(with the exception of bicycle
carriers): 65
kg.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt
the speed of the vehicle to the pro-
fi le of the road to avoid damaging the
roof bars and the fi xings on the roof.
Be sure to refer to national legislation
in order to comply with the regula-
tions for transporting objects that are
longer than the vehicle.


When fi tting transverse roof bars, use
the four quick-fi t fi xings provided for this
purpose:


)
lift the concealing fl aps,

)
open the fi xing covers on each bar
using the key,

)
put each fi xing in place and lock
them on the roof one by one,

)
ensure that roof bars are correctly
fi tted (by shaking them),

)
close the fi xing covers on each bar
using the key.

If your vehicle is fi tted with
roof fi nishers, do not use them
for carrying loads.
