There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:
- i f you press the accelerator and
brake
  pedals   at   the   same   time,
-
 
i
f   you   force   the   movement   of   the  
g

ear   lever   from   the   P position to
another position when the battery
is
  flat.
To
  reduce   fuel   consumption   when   at
 a

  prolonged   standstill   with   the   engine
 r

unning   (traffic   jam...),   put   the   gear   lever   in
 t

he N
 

position   and   apply   the   parking   brake.
If the lever is not in position P
,
when the driver's door is opened or
approximately
 
45
 
seconds
 
after
 
the
 
i

gnition
 
is

Operating fault
Manual operation
When the ignition is on, the lighting o f   this   warning   lamp,   accompanied  
b

y
 
an
 
audible   signal   and   a   message   in   the  
m

ultifunction   screen,   indicates   a   gearbox   fault.
In
 
this
 
case,   the   gearbox   switches   to   back-up  
m

ode
 
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  
d

amage
 
to
 
the   gearbox.
Do
 
not
 
exceed   60   mph   (100   km/h),   local   speed

Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can engage p osition P or N 
to   place   the   gearbox   in   neutral.
In
  both   cases,   apply   the   parking   brake   to
 i

mmobilise   the   vehicle.
Invalid value during manual
operation
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the gear   selected   flashes   for   a   few   seconds,   then  
t

he   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  
v

ery   slowly,   the   gearbox   selects   gear   M1
automatically.
The
  sport   and   snow   programmes   do   not  
o

perate   in   manual   mode.

DS3_en_Chap06_conduite_ed01-2014
Stop & StartThe Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP 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.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
For your comfort, during parking manoeuvres,   STOP   mode   is   not  
a

vailable for a few seconds after
coming
  out   of   reverse   gear.
STOP
  mode   does   not   affect   the  
f

unctionality of the vehicle, such as for
example,
  braking,   power   steering...
Never
  refuel   with   the   engine   in   STOP  
m

ode;   you   must   switch   off   the   ignition  
w

ith   the   key.
