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.
D disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succession in the
instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the
gear selected flashes 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.
th

e sport and snow programmes do not
operate in manual mode.
Manual operation
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, unless it is programmed
to automatic mode.
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 and a
message appears.
F

R
eturn the lever to position P ;
the audible signal stops and the
message disappears. When the ignition is on, a message
appears in the instrument panel
screen to indicate a gearbox fault.
Operating fault
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up mode
and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel a substantial
knock when changing from P
to R and from N to R.
th

is will not cause any damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
You risk damaging the gearbox:
- i f you press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time,
-

i
f you force the lever from position P
to another position when the
battery is flat.
to r

educe fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffic jam...), position
the gear lever at N and apply the
parking brake, unless it is programmed
in automatic mode.

Stop & Start
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
the "ECO" warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
-

W

ith a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) or vehicle stationary
(depending on the engine), when you place
the gear lever in neutral, and you release
the clutch pedal.
Never refuel with the engine in S
tO

P
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the button. For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, S
tO

P mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
S
tO

P mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...
A slight delay between the vehicle
stopping and the engine cutting out may
be noticed.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
StOP mode is not invoked principally when:
- t he vehicle is on a steep slope (up or down),
-

t
he driver's door is open,
-

t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-

t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10
km/h) since the last engine start by the
driver,
-

t
he electric parking brake is applied or
being applied,
-

t
he engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
-
d

emisting is active,
-
s

ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,
a time counter calculates the time spent
in S
tO

P mode during a journey.In this case, the "ECO" warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds then goes
of f.
This operation is perfectly normal.
th

e Stop & Start

system puts the engine temporarily into standby - S
tO

P mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.

the system is reactivated automatically
at every new engine start by the driver.
Reactivation
Press the "ECO OFF" switch again.the system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch warning lamp going off,
accompanied by a message.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the system, this
warning lamp comes on continuously.
Have it checked by a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in S

P mode, the
vehicle may stall.

come


on.
Depending on version, an alert message may
also be displayed, asking you to place the gear
lever in position N and put your foot on the
brake pedal.
You must switch off the ignition, then start the
engine again. Before doing anything under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid any risk of injury

special specification and technology (reference
numbers available from P

ealers).
Fitting a battery not listed by P

introduces the risk of malfunction of the
system.
For charging, use a 12 V charger and do not
reverse the polarity.
Maintenance
the Stop & Start system makes use of
advanced technology. For any work on
the system go to a qualified workshop
with the skills and equipment required,

Active cruise control
This systems allows the vehicle's speed to be
maintained at a value set by the driver.
In addition it allows (when circumstances
permit) an inter-vehicle time that you have
selected to be maintained between your vehicle
and the one in front.Principles of operation
using a radar with a range of about 100 metres,
located at the front of the vehicle, this system
detects a vehicle running in front of your
vehicle.
It automatically adapts the speed of your
vehicle to that of the vehicle in front.
If the vehicle in front is running more slowly,
the system progressively reduces the speed of
your vehicle using just engine braking (as if the
driver had pressed the "-" b ut to n).
If your vehicle is too close to, or approaching
too quickly the vehicle in front, the cruise
control is automatically deactivated.
t
h
e
driver is then alerted by an audible signal,
accompanied by a message.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the active cruise control progressively
accelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed speed.
If the driver operates a direction indicator to
overtake a slower vehicle, the active cruise
control allows your vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle in front to assist the
overtaking manoeuvre, though never exceeding
the programmed speed.
Switching between the
types of cruise control
the choice between the "active" and "standard"
cruise control is made in the " Driving
assistance " menu.
th

e cruise control selection thumb wheel must
be in the "CR
uI

S
e" p
osition, other wise the
choice will not be taken into account.
Refer to the corresponding section
for information on the operation of the
standard cruise control.
th

e state of the system is memorised on
switching off the ignition. F

P
ress the button to
change from active
cruise control to
standard cruise
control and vice-
versa.
