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 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 abnormality

Any operating abnormality is indicated
by an audible signal, accompanied by
the message "Automatic gear fault"

on the display and fl ashing of the Snow
snowfl ake on the instrument panel.
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 as soon
as possible.
You can return to the automatic
programme at any time.


- Press button 7 again to switch off
the programme you are in.



Snow programme

In addition to the automatic
programme, there is a special
Snow programme.
This improves starting
and drive when traction is
poor. The snowfl ake appears on the
instrument panel display.


- Press button 7 once the
vehicle has been started
and position D
selected.
The gearbox adapts to driving
on slippery roads.

STEERING WHEEL HEIGHT AND
REACH ADJUSTMENT

When the vehicle is stationary,
release the steering wheel adjustment
mechanism by lowering the lever.
Adjust the steering wheel for height
and reach, then lock the adjustment
mechanism by pushing the lever fully
upwards.
MANUAL GEARBOX



5-speed gearbox

6-speed gearbox

To change gear easily, always press
the clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedal:


- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,

- never fi t one mat on top of another.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand
on the gear knob as the force exerted,
even if slight, may wear the internal
components of the gearbox over time.


Reverse gear (6-speed)

Raise the collar under the gear knob to
engage reverse gear.
Never engage reverse gear before the
vehicle is completely stationary.
The lever should be moved slowly to
reduce the noise on engaging reverse
gear.

Starting and stopping


STARTING AND STOPPING

STOP position: steering lock.
The ignition is off.


Good practice when starting


Handbrake
If your vehicle is fi tted with a
version with a rotating front seat,
the handbrake can be disengaged.
Pulling the handbrake to immobilise
the vehicle then lowering the lever
does not release the brake, it permits
rotation of the driver’s seat.
Pull the button placed at the end of the
handbrake forwards.
The handbrake lever lowers.
You can now rotate the seat.
To return to normal operation, pull the
lever up until it clicks.
If the handbrake is on or has
not been released fully, this is
indicated by:
- a warning light which comes
on on the instrument panel,
- an audible signal,

- a message on the display.

Key
Take care not to place the key in
contact with grease, dust, rain or a
damp environment.
A heavy object attached to the key
(key ring, …) weighing down on the
shaft of the key in the ignition switch
may cause a malfunction.

Running and accessories position.
Certain accessories can be used.
Starting position.
The starter is operated.

Diesel pre-heating warning
light
Turn the key to the Running
position.
In cold weather, wait for this warning
light to switch off then operate the
starter (Starting position) until the
engine starts.
If the temperature is high enough, the
warning light comes on for less than
one second, you can start without
waiting.


Good practice when stopping


Minimise engine and gearbox wear
When switching off the ignition, let the
engine run for a few seconds to allow
the turbocharger to return to idle.
Do not press the accelerator when
switching off the ignition.
There is no need to engage a gear
after parking the vehicle.

AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT OF
THE XENON HEADLAMPS

On vehicles which are fi tted with xenon
headlamps, this system automatically
corrects the height of the light beam,
regardless of the load in the vehicle.
The driver is then guaranteed optimum
lighting without dazzling other road
users.
Cancelling:
- "fl ash" the headlamps,

-
get out of the vehicle and lock it.
If your vehicle is fi tted
with a brightness
sensor, the side lights
and dipped beam
headlamps switch on
automatically if the
light is poor, or during operation of the
windscreen wipers. They switch off
as soon as the light becomes bright
enough or the windscreen wipers stop.
This function is not compatible with the
daytime lights.
