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.
OPERATION
This function is only active when:
- the vehicle is completely stationary, with your foot on the brake
pedal,
- certain conditions of slope are met,
- with the driver’s door closed.
The hill start assist system cannot be deactivated.
Do not exit the vehicle while it is being held in the hill start assist
phase.
OPERATING FAULT
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle stationary, the vehicle is
held for a brief moment when you release the brake pedal:
- provided you are in fi rst gear or neutral on a manual gearbox,
- provided you are in position D
or M
on an automatic gearbox.
On a descending slope, with the vehicle stationary and reverse
gear engaged, the vehicle is held for a brief moment when you
release the brake pedal.
If you need to exit the vehicle with the engine running,
apply the parking brake and then check that the
corresponding warning lamp in the instrument panel is on.
If a malfunction of the system occurs, these warning lamps come on.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

DRIVING
It is only possible to change from one gear to another if the vehicle
speed and engine speed permit; otherwise, the gearbox will operate
temporarily in automatic mode.
M
and the gears engaged manually appear in succession in
the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the gear selected
fl ashes for a few seconds, then the actual gear engaged is
displayed.
It is possible to change from position D
(automatic) to position M
(manual) at any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving very slowly, the gearbox
selects gear M1
automatically.
The sport and snow programmes do not operate in manual mode.
Invalid value during manual operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear is not engaged correctly
(selector between two positions).
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, there is
an audible signal is heard accompanied by a message.
)
Return the lever to position P
; the audible signal stops and the
message disappears.
OPERATING FAULT
When the ignition is on, the illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the
screen, indicates a gearbox malfunction.
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
permitting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
This warning lamp may also come on if a door is opened.
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.
To reduce fuel consumption during a long period stationary with
the engine running (traffi c jam, etc.), place the gear lever in
position N
and apply the parking brake.

Deactivation / Activation of the rear parking sensors
The function is deactivated or activated via the vehicle
confi guration menu.
The status of the function is stored when the ignition is switched off.
For more information on access to the parking sensors menu,
refer to the section covering the confi guration of vehicle systems.
OPERATING FAULT
In the event of a malfunction of the system, when reverse gear
is engaged this warning lamp is displayed in the instrument
panel and/or a message appears in the screen, accompanied
by an audible signal (short beep).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the sensors are not
covered with mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is engaged, an
audible signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.)
may trigger the audible signals of the parking sensor system.
The function will be deactivated automatically if a trailer is being
towed or a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehicle fi tted with a towbar or
bicycle carrier recommended by PEUGEOT).

FUEL TANK
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 55 litres.
LOW FUEL LEVEL
FILLING
When the fuel tank minimum level is reached this warning
lamp comes on on the instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and an alert message. When it fi rst comes on
there remains approximately 5 litres
of fuel in the tank.
Until suffi cient fuel is added, this warning lamp appears every time
the ignition is switched on, accompanied by an audible signal and a
message. When driving, this audible signal and display of the alert
message are repeated with increasing frequency as the fuel level drops
towards "0"
.
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer also to the "Running out of fuel
(Diesel)" section.
A label affi xed to the inside of the fl ap reminds you of the type of fuel to
be used depending on your engine.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres, in order to be registered by
the fuel gauge. To fi ll the tank in complete safety:
)
the engine must be switched off,
)
press the rear part of the fl ap, then raise it to open it,
)
turn the cap to the left,
)
remove the cap and hook it onto the clip located on the inside of
the fl ap,
)
fi ll the tank, but do not continue after the 3rd cut-off of the
pump
; this could cause malfunctions. Opening the fi ller cap may create a noise a caused by an inrush
of air. This vacuum is entirely normal, resulting from the sealing of
the fuel system.
