Instruments and controls
Tr i p r e s e t
If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
This value may vary following a change
in the style of driving or the relief,
resulting in a significant change in the
current fuel consumption.
A few definitions…
Range
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
which can still be travelled with
the fuel remaining in the tank
in relation to the average fuel
consumption over the last few
miles (kilometres) travelled.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least
5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consumption
during the last few seconds.
Average fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel
consumption since the last trip
computer zero reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed calculated
since the last trip computer zero reset
(ignition on).
)
When the trip required is displayed, press
the control for more than two seconds
or use the left hand thumbwheel of the
steering mounted controls.
Trips "1"
and "2"
are independent but their use
is identical.
For example, trip "1"
can be used for daily
figures, and trip "2"
for monthly figures.

Comfort
Automatic day/night model
By means of a sensor, which measures the
light from the rear of the vehicle, this system
automatically and progressively changes
between the day and night uses. Adjustable mirror providing a central rear ward
view.
Equipped with an anti-dazzle system, which
darkens the mirror glass: this reduces
the nuisance to the driver caused by the
headlamps from following vehicles, low sun...
Rear view mirror
Manual day/night model
Adjustment
)
Adjust the mirror so that the glass is
directed correctly in the "day" position.
Day/night position
)
Pull the lever to change to the "night" anti-
dazzle position.
)
Push the lever to change to the normal
"day" position.
In order to ensure optimum visibility
during your manoeuvres, the mirror
lightens automatically when reverse
gear is engaged.
Steering wheel adjustment
)
When stationary
, lower the control lever
to release the steering wheel adjustment
mechanism.
)
Adjust the height and reach to suit your
driving position.
)
Pull the control lever to lock the steering
wheel adjustment mechanism.
As a safety precaution, these
operations should only be carried out
while the vehicle is stationary.
As a safety measure, the mirrors should
be adjusted to reduce the "blind spot".

Driving
Six speed automatic gearbox which offers a
choice between the comfor t of fully automatic
operation, enhanced by spor t and snow
programmes, or manual gear changing.
Four driving modes are offered:
- automatic
operation for electronic
management of the gears by the gearbox,
- sport
programme for a more dynamic style
of driving,
- snow
programme to improve driving when
traction is poor,
- manual
operation for sequential changing
of the gears by the driver.

6-speed electronic gear control gearbox
Six-speed electronic gear control gearbox
which offers a choice between the comfor t of
fully automatic operation or the pleasure of
manual gear changing.
There are two driving modes:
- automatic

the gears by the gearbox,
- manual
mode for sequential gear changing
by the driver.
In automatic mode, it remains possible to
change gear manually by using the steering
mounted control paddles when required, when
over taking, for example.

Safety
Ty r e u n d e r - i nfl ation detection
System which automatically checks the pressure of the tyres while driving.
Sensors fitted in each valve trigger a warning in
the event of malfunction (speed above 12 mph
(20 km/h)).
The spare wheel is not fitted with a sensor.
All repairs and changing of tyres on a
wheel fitted with this system must be
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install a
wheel which is not detected by your
vehicle (example: fitting of snow tyres),
you must have the system reinitialised
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
This message is also displayed when
one of the wheels is away from the
vehicle (being repaired) or when one or
more wheels without a sensor are fitted.
The tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for the driver to be
vigilant or to drive responsibly.
This system does not avoid the need
to have the tyre pressures checked
regularly (refer to "Identification
markings") to ensure that the optimum
dynamic per formance of the vehicle
is maintained and prevent premature
wear of the tyres, particularly in arduous
driving conditions (heavy load, high
speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Remember to
check the pressure of the spare wheel.
The tyre under-inflation detection
system may experience temporary
inter ference due to electromagnetic
signals on a frequency close to that
used by the system.
A message appears in the instrument panel
screen, accompanied by an audible signal, to
identify the wheel concerned.
Under-infl ated tyre
This warning lamp and
the STOP
warning lamp
come on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message in the instrument
panel screen identifying the wheel concerned.
)
Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden
movement of the steering wheel and the
brakes.
)
Change the damaged wheel (punctured
or very deflated tyre), and have the tyre
pressure checked as soon as possible.
Puncture
A message appears in the instrument panel
screen, accompanied by an audible signal,
to identify the wheel or wheels which are not
detected or to indicate a fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
)
Check the tyre pressures as soon as
possible.
This check must be carried out when the tyres
are cold.
