Fitting a battery not listed by PEUGEOT
introduces the risk of malfunction of the system.

Driving
Hill start assist
System which keeps your vehicle immobilised
temporarily (approximately 2 seconds) when
starting on a gradient, the time it takes to
move your foot from the brake pedal to the
accelerator pedal.
This system only operates when:
- the vehicle is completely stationary, with
your foot on the brake pedal,
- in par ticular conditions on a slope,
- with the driver’s door closed.
The hill star t assist system cannot be
deactivated.
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle
stationar y, the vehicle is held for a momentarily
when you release the brake pedal:
- provided you are in first gear or neutral on
a manual gearbox,
- provided you are in A
or M
on an electronic
gear control gearbox,
- provided you are in D
or M
on an automatic
gearbox.
Operation
On a descending slope, with the vehicle
stationar y and reverse gear engaged, the
vehicle is held momentarily when you
release the brake pedal.
Do not exit the vehicle while it is being
held in the hill star t assist phase.
If you need to exit the vehicle with
the engine running, apply the parking
brake manually then ensure that the
parking brake warning lamp (and the
warning lamp P
in the lever of the
electric parking brake) are on fixed (not
flashing).
Operating fault
If a fault in the system occurs, these warning
lamps come on. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer

Safety
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
Activation
This system is activated automatically each
time the vehicle is star ted.
It comes into operation in the event of a grip or
trajectory problem.
This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument panel.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate
the DSC system, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip. The DSC system offers exceptional
safety in normal driving, but this should
not encourage the driver to take extra
risks or drive at high speed.
The correct operation of the system
depends on obser vation of the
manufacturer's recommendations
regarding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components, the electronic
components and the PEUGEOT
assembly and operation procedures.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.

accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument

time the ignition is switched back on or from
