  Moving  off 
      Apply the parking brake. 
     Select position  P  or  N . 
     Start  the  engine.  
 If this procedure is not followed, there is 
an audible signal, accompanied by the 
display of an warning message. 
      With the engine running, press the  brake pedal. 
     Release the parking brake. 
     Select position   R ,   D  or  M . 
     Gradually release the brake pedal.  
 The vehicle moves off immediately. 
  If  position   N  is selected inadver-
tently while driving, allow the en-
gine to return to idle then select 
position   D  to accelerate. 
 If the ambient temperature is below 
-23°C, the engine should be left at 
idle for four minutes, to ensure the 
correct operation and life of the en-
gine and gearbox.    The gearbox then operates in auto-
adaptive mode, without any intervention 
on the part of the driver. It continuously 
selects the most suitable gear accord-
ing  to  the  style  of  driving,  the  profi le  of 
the road and the load in the vehicle. 
  Automatic  operation 
     Select position  
D  for  automatic  
changing of the four gears.  
    appears in the instrument 
panel.   
  Snow  programme  "  " 
      Press button " 
 ", after starting the 
engine.  
 The gearbox adapts to driving on slip-
pery roads. 
 This programme improves starting and 
drive when traction is poor.    S  appears in the instrument 
panel.  
  Sport  programme  "S" 
      Press button  
"S" , after starting the 
engine.  
 The gearbox automatically favours a 
dynamic style of driving. 
  Never select position   N  while the 
vehicle is moving. 
 Never select positions   P  or  R   un-
less the vehicle is completely sta-
tionary.   
  When the engine is running at idle, 
with the brakes released, if posi-
tion  
R ,   D   or   M  is selected, the vehicle 
moves even without the accelerator 
being pressed. 
 When the engine is running, never 
leave children in the vehicle without 
supervision. 
 When carrying out maintenance with 
the engine running, apply the park-
ing brake and select position   P .   
  Sport and snow programmes 
 These two special programmes supple-
ment the automatic operation in very 
specifi c conditions of use. 
  Return to automatic operation 
      At any time, press the button select-
ed again to quit the programme en-
gaged and return to auto-adaptive 
mode.   
 For maximum acceleration without 
touching the gear lever, press the accel-
erator pedal down fully (kick down). The 
gearbox changes down automatically 
or maintains the gear selected until the 
maximum engine speed is reached. 
 On braking, the gearbox changes down 
automatically to provide effi cient engine 
braking. 
 If you release the accelerator sharply, 
the gearbox will not change to a higher 
gear for safety reasons.

  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. 
  Operating  fault 
  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 movement of  the gear lever from the   P   posi-
tion to another position when 
the battery is fl at.  
 To reduce fuel consumption when 
at a prolonged standstill with the 
engine  running  (traffi c  jam...),  put 
the gear lever in the   N  position and 
apply the parking brake.   
  Manual  operation 
     Select position   M  for  sequential  
changing of the four gears. 
     Push the lever towards the   +  sign to 
change up a gear. 
     Pull the lever towards the   -  sign to 
change down a gear.  
  D  disappears and the gears 
engaged appear in succes-
sion in the instrument panel. 
 If the engine speed is too low 
or too high, the gear selected 
fl ashes for a few seconds, then the ac-
tual 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 mov-
ing very slowly, the gearbox selects 
gear   M1   automatically. 
 The sport and snow programmes do not 
operate in manual 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, a warning 
message appears in the screen. 
      Return the lever to position   P ; 
the message disappears.  
 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 au-
tomatic mode. 
  Invalid value during manual 
operation 
 This symbol is displayed if a 
gear is not engaged correctly 
(selector between two posi-
tions).     When the ignition is on, the 
lighting of this warning lamp, 
accompanied by an audible 
signal and a message in the 
multifunction screen, indicates a gear-
box 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 . 
This will not cause any damage to the 
gearbox. 
 Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local 
speed restrictions permitting. 
 Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop as soon as possible. 
 When  driving  on  fl ooded  roads  or 
when crossing a ford, proceed at 
walking  pace.

CRUISE CONTROL 
 System which automatically maintains 
the speed of the vehicle at the value 
programmed by the driver, without any 
action on the accelerator pedal. 
 The cruise control is  switched on  
manually: it requires a minimum vehicle 
speed of 25 mph (40 km/h), as well as 
the engaging of: 
   -   fourth gear on a manual gearbox, 
  -   second gear on an automatic gear- box in sequential mode, 
  -   position   D  on an automatic gearbox.  
 The cruise control is   switched off   man-
ually or by pressing the brake or clutch 
pedal or on triggering of the ESP sys-
tem for safety reasons. 
 It is possible to exceed the programmed 
speed temporarily by pressing the ac-
celerator pedal. 
 To return to the programmed speed, 
simply release the accelerator pedal. 
 Switching off the ignition cancels any 
programmed speed value.   The controls of this system are grouped 
together on stalk

respect speed limits, nor can it re-
place the need for vigilance and re-
sponsibility on the part of the driver. 
 You are advised to keep your feet 
near the pedals at all times.

 Only use products recommended by 
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent 
quality and specifi cations. 
 In order to optimise the operation 
of units as important as the braking 
system, PEUGEOT selects and of-
fers very specifi c products. 
 To avoid damaging the electrical 
units, the use of a high pressure 
washer in the engine compartment 
is strictly  prohibited . 
 After washing the vehicle, or in hu-
mid or wintry conditions, ice can 
form on the brake discs and pads 
with a resulting loss of effi ciency of 
the brakes. Make a few light brake 
applications to defrost and dry the 
brakes.

  Brake  pads 
 Brake wear depends on the 
style of driving, particularly in 
the case of vehicles used in 
town, over short distances. It 
may be necessary to have the 
condition of the brakes checked, even 
between vehicle services. 
 Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a 
drop  in  the  brake  fl uid  level  indicates 
that the brake pads are worn.  
  Parking  brake 
 If the parking brake travel is 
too long or if you notice a loss 
of effectiveness of this sys-
tem, the parking brake must 
be adjusted, even between 
two services. 
 This system must be checked by a 
PEUGEOT  dealer  or  a  qualifi ed  work-
shop.
