An aero-acoustic deflector is available to
improve the acoustic comfort of occupants
of the vehicle in certain driving conditions
(high speed), by reducing the turbulence in
the passenger compartment resulting from the
displacement of air.
On opening the roof, the aero-acoustic
deflector is deployed.
On closing the roof, the deflector folds away
automatically.

Operating fault
In the event of an electrical fault,
contact a Pe
ugeOt dealer or a
qualified workshop.Protection of the electric motors
used for opening and closing the
roof
Following repeated opening and closing of the
roof, the electric motors may become too warm
and no longer allow the roof to be opened or
closed. Allow the motors to cool down with no
operation of the roof for 10 minutes.

- a f olding split (50/50) backrest,
-

a f
olding one-piece backrest.
When not in use, or before folding the seat
backrest(s), stow the rear seat belts by
inserting their tongues in the dedicated holders,
located on the side pillars.

Automatic air conditioning
F Press the "AUTO" button. th

the

air conditioning operates when the engine is running.
By pressing the "AUTO" button again, you can
choose from one of the following settings in
turn:
Automatic programme
Allows optimum operation of the
system.
Offers temperature control while
restricting air flow.
Dynamic air distribution mainly
towards the side air vents.
We recommend that you use this mode.
It provides optimised automatic control of
all of the following functions: passenger
compartment temperature, air flow, air
distribution and air intake, in accordance with
the comfort value that you have chosen.
th

is system is designed to operate effectively
in all seasons, with the windows and fabric roof
closed.
For your comfort, when the engine is switched
off, the settings are retained until the engine is
switched on again.
to p

revent too great a distribution of cold air
when the engine is cold, the air flow will only
reach its optimum level gradually.

Temporarily taking control of
gear changes
You can temporarily take control of gear
changes using the "+" and "-"
steering
mounted control paddles.
ge

ar change commands are only acted on if
the engine speed allows.
t

signal if a command is not accepted.
th

e gear engaged is displayed in the
instrument panel.
th

is function allows you to anticipate certain
situations such as overtaking a vehicle or
approaching a corner.
After a few moments with no action on the
controls, the gearbox returns to automatic
control of the gears. It is possible to change mode at any time,
by moving the gear lever from position E to
position M and the other way round.
Never select neutral N when the vehicle
is moving.

When braking or slowing down, the gearbox
automatically changes down so that pick-up is
in the right gear.
Manual mode
under sharp acceleration, the gearbox will not
change up without action by the driver on the
gear lever or steering mounted control paddles
(unless the engine speed is close to maximum).

Driving

Under-inflation detection
the system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed.
th

e system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
th

e under-inflation detection system
does not replace the vigilance or the
responsibility of the driver.
th

is system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous condition
(high loading, high speed, long journey).
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
th

e inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label.
See the "Identification markings"
section.
ty

re pressures should be checked
when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of
less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate
speeds).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to
the pressures shown on the label. Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
Hazard warning lamps
A visual warning by means of the direction
indicators to alert other road users to a vehicle
breakdown, towing or accident.

electronic stability control (eS C)
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
these systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contribute towards better control in
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
th

e ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
th

e electronic brake force distribution system
manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly and therefore reduce the stopping
distance.
It is triggered according to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed.
t
h
is is felt by a
reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
increase in the effectiveness of the braking.
Traction control (TRC)
this system optimises traction in order to limit
wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that required by the
driver, this system monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
