KEY
  This locks and unlocks the doors on the 
vehicle, opens and closes the fuel filler cap, 
as well as starting and stopping the engine. 
REMOTE CONTROL   ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER 
 
All of the keys contain an electronic 
immobiliser device. 
  This device locks the engine supply system. 
It is activated automatically when the key is 
removed from the ignition. 
  After the ignition is switched on, a dialogue 
is established between the key and the 
electronic immobiliser system. 
  The metal part of the key must be unfolded 
correctly for correct dialogue to take place.  
 
 
Reinitialising the remote control 
 
Following changing of the remote control battery 
or disconnection of the vehicle battery, the remote 
control may have to be reinitialised. 
  Wait at least one minute before using the remote 
control. 
  Insert the key in the ignition switch with the buttons 
(padlocks) of the remote control facing you.   Switch on the ignition. 
  Press the locking padlock for at least five 
seconds within the next ten seconds. 
  Switch off the ignition. 
  Wait at least one minute before using the 
remote control. 
  The remote control is now working again.  
  There is a risk of damage if the replacement 
battery is not the correct type. 
  Use only identical batteries or batteries of an 
equivalent type to those recommended by 
PEUGEOT dealers. 
  Do not discard the remote control batteries, 
they contain metals which are harmful to the 
environment. 
  Deposit them at a PEUGEOT dealership, or 
at an authorised collection point.  
 
 
Changing the battery 
 
Battery ref.: CR1620 / 3 volts. 
  The "battery flat" information is given by an 
audible signal, accompanied by a message 
in the screen. 
  To replace the battery, unclip the casing 
using a coin at the ring. 
  If the remote control does not work after the 
battery has been changed, reinitialise the 
remote control.    
If you lose your keys 
  Visit a PEUGEOT dealer with the 
vehicle's V5 registration document and 
your identification document. 
  A PEUGEOT dealer will be able to retrieve 
the key code and the transponder code so 
that a replacement key can be ordered.

Moving off 
 
With the engine running, to move off from 
position  P 
. 
  For immediate maximum acceleration 
without touching the gear lever, 
depress the accelerator pedal to the 
extent of its travel, passing the point of 
resistance (kickdown). The gearbox will 
automatically change down or maintain the 
gear selected until maximum engine speed 
is reached. 
  On a descent, the gearbox will automatically 
change down in order to provide efficient 
engine braking and good pickup. 
  If you take your foot off the accelerator 
suddenly, the gearbox will not change to a 
higher gear for reasons of safety. 
  When stationary with the gear lever in 
position  D 
 (drive), a vibration limiting device 
is activated by pressing the brake pedal.      
-   gradually release the 
pressure on the brake pedal; 
the vehicle then moves off.  
     
 
-   Press the brake pedal to 
come out of position  P 
, 
   
-   select position  R 
 or  D 
, 
   
-   gradually release the 
pressure on the brake pedal; 
the vehicle then moves off.  
  You can also move off from position  N 
. 
   
 
-   With your foot on 
the brake, release 
the parking brake, 
   
-   select position  R 
,  D 
 or  M 
, 
   
 
 
-   Select position  D 
.    The gearbox always selects the most 
suitable gear taking account of the following: 
   
 
-   the style of driving, 
   
-   the road profile, 
   
-   the vehicle load.  
  The gearbox is then operating in auto-
adaptive mode, without any action on your 
part. 
   
Reverse gear 
 
 
 
-   Select position  R 
, with the 
vehicle stationary and the 
engine at idle.  
 
 
 
Stopping the vehicle, starting the 
engine 
   
 
-   Select position  P 
 to 
  immobilise the vehicle 
 or 
to  start the engine 
, with the 
parking brake on or off.  
  If the battery is flat and the gear lever 
is in position  P 
, it will be impossible to 
change to another position. 
   
 
-   You can also select position 
  N 
 to  park 
 or to  start the 
engine 
, with the parking 
brake on.  
  If position  N 
 is engaged inadvertently 
while driving, allow the engine to return 
to idle before engaging position  D 
 to restore 
drive.

STARTING AND STOPPING
 
 
Key 
 
Take care to prevent the key from coming 
into contact with grease, dust, rain or a 
damp environment. 
  A heavy object attached to the key (key ring, ...) 
weighing the key down in the ignition switch may 
cause a malfunction.      
Starting position.  
  The starter is operated, the engine turns 
over, release the key. 
   
STOP position: 
 steering lock. 
  The ignition is off. Turn the steering wheel 
until the steering locks. Remove the key. 
   
Good practice when starting 
 
If this comes on, a door or the 
bonnet is not closed correctly, 
check!  
   
Diesel pre-heating warning lamp 
  If the temperature is high enough, 
the warning lamp comes on for 
less than one second, you can 
start without waiting. 
  In cold weather, wait for this warning lamp 
to go off then operate the starter (Starting 
position) until the engine starts.  
 
 
 
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 (Diesel engine) 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.  
     
Running and accessories position.  
  To unlock the steering, turn the steering 
wheel gently while turning the key, without 
forcing. In this position, certain accessories 
can be used.

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.

Levels 
 
 
Cooling system 
 
Only use the fluid recommended by the 
manufacturer. 
  Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging your 
engine. 
  When the engine is warm, the temperature 
of the coolant is controlled by the engine 
fan. As this fan can operate with the ignition 
key removed and because the cooling 
system is pressurised, wait for at least one 
hour after the engine has stopped before 
carrying out any work. 
  Slacken the cap by 1/4 of a turn to release 
the pressure to prevent any risk of scalding. 
When the pressure has dropped, remove the 
cap and top up the level with coolant. 
  If fluid has to be added frequently, this 
indicates a fault which must be checked by a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop as 
soon as possible.   The vehicle must be parked on level ground 
with the engine cold. Unscrew the cap 
integrated with the gauge and check the 
level which must be between the MIN and 
MAX marks.  
 
 
Diesel additive level (Diesel
with particle emission filter)
  The minimum level of this additive 
is indicated by lighting of the 
service warning light, accompanied by an 
audible signal and a message in the screen. 
  When this occurs with the engine running it 
is due to the start of saturation of the particle 
emission filter (exceptionally prolonged 
urban type driving conditions: low speed, 
long traffic jams, ...). 
  In order to regenerate the filter, you are 
advised to drive at a speed higher than 
40 mph (60 km/h) for at least five minutes 
as soon as possible, when traffic conditions 
permit (until the message disappears and 
the service warning lamp goes off). 
  During regeneration of the particle emission 
filter, relay noise may be heard under the 
dashboard. 
  If the message is still displayed and if the 
service warning lamp remains on, contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. 
   
Topping up 
  The level must be between the MIN and 
MAX marks on the expansion bottle. If 
more than 1 litre of fluid is required to top 
up the level, have the system checked by a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.  
 
Screenwash and headlamp wash level 
 
For best quality cleaning and for your safety, 
we would advise that you use products of 
the PEUGEOT range. 
  Capacity of the screenwash reservoir: 
approximately 4.5 litres. 
  If your vehicle is fitted with headlamp 
washers, the capacity of the reservoir 
is 7.5 litres. 
  To ensure optimum cleaning and prevent 
freezing, this fluid must not be topped up or 
replaced with plain water.  
   
Topping up 
  This additive must be topped up by a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop 
without delay.
