Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a
gear is not engaged correctly
(selector between two posi-
tions).



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.

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 audible
signal is heard and a message ap-
pears in the screen.


)
Return the lever to position P
;
the audible signal stops and the
message disappears.




Operating fault


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 lever from
position P
to another position
when the battery is fl at.
When the ignition is on, the
lighting of this warning lamp, ac-
companied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen,
indicates a gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches
to emergency 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 a speed of 60 mph
(100 km/h), local speed restrictions per-
mitting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
This warning lamp may also come on if
a door is opened.

CHECKS






CHECKS













12 V battery

The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check that the terminals
are clean and correctly tightened,
particularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery, re-
fer to the "Practical information" section for
details of the precautions to be taken before
disconnecting the battery and following its
reconnection.







The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a specifi c 12 V lead-acid bat-
tery with special technology and specifi -
cation. The involvement of a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop is essen-
tial when replacing or disconnecting the
battery.










Particle emission filter (Diesel)

The start of saturation of the par-
ticle emissions fi lter is indicated
by the temporary illumination of
this warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible signal and a mes-
sage on the risk of blockage of the parti-
cle emissions fi lter.
As soon as the traffi c conditions per-
mit, regenerate the fi lter by driving at a
speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, refer to the
"Additive level" section.

On a new vehicle, the fi rst particle
fi lter regeneration operations may
be accompanied by a "burning"
smell, which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of
the vehicle at very low speed or at
idle, you may, in exceptional cir-
cumstances, notice the emission
of water vapour at the exhaust on
acceleration. This does not affect
the behaviour of the vehicle or the
environment.

Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the servic-
ing booklet and according to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.





















Air filter and passenger compartment filter


Refer to the servicing booklet
for details of the replacement
intervals for these compo-
nents.
Depending on the environment
(e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the use of
the vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace
them twice as often if necessary
.
A clogged passenger compartment fi lter
may have an adverse effect on the per-
formance of the air conditioning system
and generate undesirable odours.















Oil filter

Replace the oil fi lter each time
the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the servicing booklet
for details of the replacement
interval for this component.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Charging


)
Disconnect the (+) terminal.

)
Follow the instructions for use
provided by the manufacturer of the
charger.

)
Connect the charger's red cable to
the (+) terminal of the battery, then
the black cable to the (-) terminal.

)
Once the battery is fully charged,
disconnect the charger cables in
reverse order.


Charging should be carried out in
a well-ventilated area and away
from naked fl ames and sources of
sparks, so as to avoid any risk of
explosion and fi re.
Do not try to charge a frozen bat-
tery; fi rst thaw it out so as to avoid
the risk of explosion.
If the battery had frozen, before
charging, have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or qualifi ed
workshop who will ensure that
the internal components have not
been damaged and that the casing
is not cracked, which would cause
a leak of toxic and corrosive acid.


Reinitialisation after
reconnection

After any reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait at least one
minute before starting, to allow time for the
initialisation of the electronic systems.
By referring to the corresponding sec-
tions, you should set or initialise the
following systems yourself:


- remote control,

- one-touch electric windows,

- panoramic sunroof blind,

- time and date,

- audio and navigation system settings.


Check that no alert message or
warning lamp comes on after
switching on the ignition.
However, if minor problems persist
after carrying out these operations,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.


The Stop & Start battery does not
have to be disconnected for charging.












Charging the battery using a
battery charger

Before disconnecting


)
Go to the battery.

)
Check that the doors and boot are
closed but not locked.

)
Switch off the ignition and wait for at
least four minutes.


If the vehicle is to not going to be used
for more than a month, it is recommend-
ed that the battery be disconnected.

When your vehicle's battery is dis-
charged or when the vehicle is to be
out of use for a prolonged period, you
can charge the battery using a battery
charger.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop for the specifi cation of
chargers compatible with your battery.
