Gearboxes and steering wheel



Manual mode

Manual sequential gear changing.


- Select gear lever position M
,

- push the gear lever towards the + sign
to change up, from 1 through to 6,

- conversely, push the gear lever towards
the - sign to change down.
You can change from position D
(automatic mode) to position M
(manual mode) at any time.
In manual mode, it is only possible to
change from one gear to another if the
vehicle speed and engine speed permit.
If they do not, the vehicle will operate
temporarily in automatic mode.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox automatically
selects first gear.


Good practice

Never select position N
when the vehicle is
moving.
Never select positions P
or R
unless the
vehicle is stationary.
Never change between positions to optimise
braking on a slippery surface.
There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:


- if you press the accelerator and brake
pedals at the same time,

- if you force the gear lever from position P

to another position in the event of a battery
failure.
When the engine is at idle, brakes not
applied, if position R
, D
or M
is selected the
vehicle moves even without the accelerator
being pressed.
For this reason, do not leave children
unsupervised inside the vehicle, with the
engine running
.


Operating fault

Any operating fault is indicated by an
audible signal, accompanied by the
message "Automatic gear fault"
in the
screen.
In this situation the gearbox operates in
downgrade mode (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), keeping
within the limit of local speed restrictions.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR) AND DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL(ESP)

These systems are linked and complement
the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and avoiding
losses of control of the vehicle on
acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent the
wheels skidding, by acting on the brakes of
the drive wheels and on the engine. It also
allows the directional stability of the vehicle
to be improved on acceleration. acts on the engine and the brake of one
or more wheels, in order to put the vehicle
back on course.
Deactivating the ASR/ESP systems
In certain exceptional conditions (starting
the vehicle when stuck in mud or snow, or
on loose ground...), it could prove useful
to deactivate the ASR and ESP systems to
make the wheels spin and regain grip.


- Press the button, located on the centre
console.

- The indicator lamp comes on: the ASR
and ESP systems no longer act.
Operating check


Good practice

The ASR/ESP systems offer increased
safety during normal driving, but should not
encourage the driver to take risks or to drive
at high speed.
The operation of these systems is assured
only if the recommendations of the
manufacturer regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and fitting and
repair procedures are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Operation of the ASR and ESPsystems

The LED flashes when the ASR or
ESP is triggered.

They engage again:


- automatically above 30 mph (50 km/h),

- manually by pressing the button again.
When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in
the screen.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
The warning lamp may also come on if the
tyres are under-inflated. Check the pressure
of each tyre.

Use the ESP to hold your course without
attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the trajectory
followed by the vehicle and that required
by the driver, the ESP system automatically

Improved safety and security



IMPROVED SAFETY AND SECURITY

In situations of extreme transverse
acceleration, this module limits the risks
of the vehicle rolling over by acting on
the brakes.


Roll Over Mitigation *

This system, linked with the ESP,
supplements the ABS-EBFD, ASR-ESP and
EBA braking functions, already covered in
this document, to guarantee a high level
of active safety. Indeed, the ROM system
was intended originally for top-of-the-range
4x4 type vehicles and today it is fitted on
your vehicle.

Towing a trailer
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature. Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identification
markings" section of chapter 8) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressures.
Towbar

We recommend the use of genuine
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle, and that
you entrust the fitting of this equipment to a
PEUGEOT dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment installed at the
rear of the vehicle and in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.
In accordance with the general instructions
a reminder of which has been given above,
we draw your attention to the risk associated
with fitting a towbar or electrical accessory
not recommended by PEUGEOT. Fitting
such equipment could result in the failure
of your vehicle's electronic system. Please
obtain information from the Manufacturer
before fitting this type of equipment. If the coolant temperature warning
lamp comes on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine as soon
as possible.

Good Practice

In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a steep
slope in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power. In this
case, the air conditioning is automatically
cut off to save engine power.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 6.
Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance. Drive
at a moderate speed, change down early
and brake gradually.

Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased. Drive
smoothly and at a moderate speed.

ABS/ESP
The ABS or ESP systems only control the
vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.

Rear parking sensors
The parking sensors system does not
function while the vehicle is towing.
