FAMILIARISATION

How to start your vehicle



- Ensure that the gear lever is in posi-
tion N
.

- Switch the ignition on by turning the
key to position 2
.


- The instrument panel and the Ready

lamp come on. The power meter
needle sweeps through its travel
indicating that the hybrid system is
active, confi rmed by a message
;
the dial in the centre console is
in AUTO
mode (default mode for
starting).

- The hybrid system determines
whether it is necessary to start the
Diesel engine.


- With the brake still applied, move
the gear lever to position A
to go
forwards or R
(by lifting the lever
slightly) for reverse.

- Lift your foot off the brake pedal, you
can move off.

- The parking brake is released auto-
matically as you move off, if confi gured
to do so (otherwise, release the park-
ing brake manually).



How to stop your vehicle
and the hybrid system


- Apply the brake until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop.

- Place the gear lever in position N
.

- Turn the ignition key to position 1
,
the parking brake is applied auto-
matically if confi gured to do so.

- Otherwise apply the parking brake
manually, the P
warning lamp must
be on.
- Press fi rmly on the brake pedal, turn
the ignition key to position 3
to start
up the hybrid system, then release
the key.

When stationary, switch off the
ignition and ensure that the
Ready
lamp is off before you
leave the vehicle. Otherwise the
hybrid system will still be active. See
"Underbonnet precautions/warnings".


When your vehicle starts in electric
mode, this means that it makes no
noise. Be very careful of pedestrians
as they will not hear you coming.

ECO-DRIVING

Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emis-
sions.

Optimise the use of your
gearbox

Use automatic mode A
as much as
possible as this optimises gear chang-
es to suit the circumstances.



Drive smoothly


If your vehicle has cruise control, make
use of the system at speeds above
25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffi c is
fl owing well.



Control the use of your electrical equipment


Before moving off, if the passenger
compartment is too warm, ventilate it by
opening the windows and air vents be-
fore using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the win-
dows and leave the air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment
that can help keep the temperature in
the passenger compartment down (sun
roof and window blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless
it has automatic digital regulation, as
soon as the desired temperature is at-
tained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.

Switch off the headlamps and front fo-
glamps when the level of light does not
require their use.
Avoid running the Diesel engine when
stationary, particularly in winter; your
vehicle will warm up much faster while
driving.

As a passenger, if you avoid connecting
your multimedia devices (fi lm, music,
video game...), you will contribute to-
wards limiting the consumption of elec-
trical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices be-
fore leaving the vehicle.

Maintain a safe distance between ve-
hicles, use engine braking rather than
the brake pedal, and press the accel-
erator progressively. These practices
contribute towards a reduction in fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions and
also helps reduce the background traf-
fi c noise.

Indicator and warning lamps

Visual indicators informing the driver
that a system is in operation (operation
or deactivation indicator lamps) or of the
occurrence of a fault (warning lamp).

When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a
few seconds when the vehicle's ignition
is switched on.
When the engine is started, these same
warning lamps should go off.
If they remain on, before moving off,
refer to the information on the warning
lamp concerned.

Associated warnings
The illumination of certain warning
lamps may be accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message in the multi-
function screen.
The warning lamps may come
on continuously (fi xed) or fl ash.
Certain warning lamps may
come on in two different modes. Only
by relating the type of illumination to
the operating status of the vehicle
can it be ascertained whether the
situation is normal or whether a fault
has occurred.

SAFETY

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.


Operation

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

When this warning lamp comes
on, coupled with the STOP

warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message, it indicates that there is a fault
with the electronic brake force distribu-
tion (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.

DRIVING
140
With the vehicle stationary, to apply the
parking brake, pull
on control lever A
.
The application of the parking brake is
confi rmed by:


-
lighting of the braking warning
lamp and of the warning lamp P

in the control lever A
,

When the driver’s door is opened with the
hybrid system active, there is an audible
signal and a message is displayed if the
parking brake has not been applied.

Manual release

With the ignition on or the hybrid system
active, to release the parking brake, press

on the brake
pedal
or the accelerator, pull
then release
control lever A
.

The full application of the parking brake
is confi rmed by:


-
extinction of the braking warn-
ing lamp and of the warning
lamp P
in control lever lever A
,

If you pull control lever A
with-
out pressing the brake pedal,
the parking brake will not be
released and a warning lamp
will come on in the instrument
panel.


Manual application
Maximum application

If necessary, you can make a maximum
application
of the parking brake. It is
obtained by means of a long pull
on
control lever A
, until you see a message
that the parking brake is on accompa-
nied by an audible signal is heard.

In the case of towing a trailer
or parking on a gradient, make
a maximum application of the
parking brake then turn the front
wheels towards the pavement and
engage a gear when you park.
After a maximum application, the re-
lease time will be longer.


Before leaving the vehicle,
check that parking brake
warning lamp in the instrument
panel is on fi xed, not fl ashing.

Maximum application is essential:



- in the case of a vehicle towing a
trailer, if the automatic functions are
activated but you are applying the
parking brake manually,

- when the gradient you are parked
on is variable in its effect (e.g. on a
ferry, in a lorry, during towing).

- display of a message that the
parking brake is on.
- display of a message that
the parking brake is off.
