eco-driving
eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. 
During acceleration change up early.
With an automatic or electronic gearbox, give preference to automatic 
mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
The gear shift indicator invites you engage the most suitable gear: as 
soon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it 
straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an electronic or automatic gearbox, this 
indicator appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather 
than the brake pedal, and press the accelerator progressively. These 
practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO
2 
emissions and also helps reduce the background traffic noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds 
above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.
Control the use of your electrical 
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it 
by opening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents 
open.
Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the 
temperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window 
blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regulation,   
as soon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps when the level of light 
does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter; your 
vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices 
(film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting the 
consumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.

Stop & Start time 
counter
(minutes / seconds or hours / 
minutes)
If dashes are displayed continuously 
while driving in place of the digits, 
contact a P
e
uge
O
T dealer or a 
qualified workshop. This function is only displayed from 
20
 
mph (30 km/h).
This value may vary following a change 
in the style of driving or the relief, 
resulting in a significant change in the 
current fuel consumption.
Trip computer, a few definitions
Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still be 
travelled with the fuel remaining 
in the tank (related to the 
average fuel consumption over 
the last few miles (kilometres) 
travelled).
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km), 
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least 
5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is 
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated over the last few seconds.
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated since the last trip 
computer reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
Calculated since the last trip 
computer reset.
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
Calculated since the last trip 
computer reset.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time 
counter calculates the time spent in STOP 
mode during a journey. 
It resets to zero every time the ignition is 
switched on with the key.

Monitoring  

50
System which protects and provides a deterrent 
against theft and break-ins. It provides the 
following types of monitoring:
Alarm
- Exterior perimeter
The system checks for opening of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to open a 
door, the boot, the bonnet...
- Interior volumetric
The system checks for any variation in the 
volume in the passenger compartment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a 
window, enters the passenger compartment or 
moves inside the vehicle.
Self-protection function
The system checks for the putting out of 
service of its components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery, the 
central control or the wires of the siren 
are put out of service or damaged.For all work on the alarm system, 
contact a P
e
uge
O
 T dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Locking the vehicle with full 
alarm system
Activation
F Switch off the ignition and get out of the vehicle.
F Press the locking button on the  remote control.
After the locking button on the remote control 
is pressed, the exterior perimeter monitoring 
is activated after a delay of 5 seconds and the 
interior volumetric monitoring after a delay of 
45 seconds.
If an opening (door, boot...) is not closed 
fully, the vehicle is not locked but the exterior 
perimeter monitoring will be activated after a 
delay of 45 seconds at the same time as the 
interior volumetric monitoring. F
 
P
 ress the unlocking button on 
the remote control.
Deactivation
The alarm system is deactivated: the 
indicator lamp in the button goes off.
The monitoring system is active: the 
indicator lamp in the button flashes 
once per second.
- Tilt (only on the GTi model)
The system checks for any change in the 
attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle is lifted, 
moved or knocked. 
Access  

87
In automated mode, you can resume control 
temporarily at any time using the steering 
mounted control paddles.
The use of these paddles permits manual 
selection of the gears in situations which 
require a more rapid change-down than in 
the automated mode (arrival at a roundabout, 
leaving a car park with a steep gradient, 
over taking...).
The gearbox engages the required gear if 
the engine speed permits. AUTO remains 
displayed in the instrument panel.
After a few moments, the gearbox resumes 
automatic control of the gears.
For best acceleration, when overtaking 
another vehicle for example, press the 
accelerator pedal firmly to pass the 
point of resistance.
Automated mode
F Following use of manual mode, select  position A to return to automated mode.
AUTO  and the gear engaged appear 
in the instrument panel.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive 
mode, without any action on the part of the 
driver. It continuously selects the most suitable 
gear for:
-
 o
ptimisation of fuel consumption,
-
 
t
 he driving style,
-
 
t
 he road conditions,
-
 
t
 he vehicle load.
Creep function* (moving 
w ithout use of the 
accelerator)
This function makes manoeuvring the vehicle 
smoother at low speeds (when parking, in a 
traffic jam, …).
With the engine running at idle, brakes 
released and A , M or R selected, the vehicle 
moves as soon as you take your foot of the 
brake pedal (even if you do not touch the 
accelerator pedal).
For your safety, this function is activated only 
if you press the brake pedal while engaging 
for ward drive or reverse.
It is deactivated on opening the driver's 
door. Close the door, then press the brake or 
accelerator pedal to reactivate the function.
* Only on petrol engines.
"Auto sequential" mode
The vehicle does not move without 
pressing the accelerator pedal if the 
gear lever had stayed in position N for 
more than 2 seconds , with the engine 
running and the brake pedal was not 
pressed before selecting the position
 
A, 
M or R .

down a gear.
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.
The sport and snow programmes do not 
operate in manual mode.

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking, detecting a parking space then controlling the steering to park in the space.
It controls the steering while the driver manages the accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch (manual gearbox). During phases of entry into and exit from 
a parking space, the system provides visual and audible information to the driver in order to make the manoeuvre safe. It may be necessary to move 
forwards and backwards more than once.For entry into a parking space (parallel 
parking) the system does not detect 
spaces which are clearly much smaller 
or larger than the size of the vehicle.
This "parking assistance" system 
is activated automatically during 
manoeuvres; it is therefore possible 
that a symbol comes on in the screen, 
accompanied by an audible signal, 
without affecting the manoeuvre.
The selection of the type of manoeuvre 
(entering or exiting a parallel parking 
space) prevents a change to STOP 
mode of Stop & Start.
In STOP mode, this selection restarts 
the engine.
The Park Assist system cannot in any 
circumstances replace the care and 
responsibility of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of 
their vehicle ensuring that the space 
remains clear during the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors 
may not detect small obstacles located 
in their blind spots.
During a manoeuvre the steering wheel 
turns quickly: do not hold the steering 
wheel, do not place your hand between 
the spokes of the steering wheel and 
take care with loose and bulky clothing, 
scarves, handbags... There is a risk of 
injury.
The system provides assistance in entering and 
exiting a parking space when parallel parking. The driver can take control at any time by 
gripping the steering wheel.
Changing tyre sizes (out-size tyres, 
winter tyres, ...) can inter fere with 
the correct operation of the parking 
assistance system.

Tyre under-inflation detection
The under-inflation detection system 
does not replace the vigilance or the 
responsibility of the driver.
This 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).The inflation pressures defined for 
your vehicle can be found on the tyre 
pressure label.
See the "Identification markings" 
section.
Tyre 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.
System which automatically checks the pressure of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressures on 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
.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it 
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one 
or more tyres.

Amber coloured bulbs, such as the 
direction indicators, must be replaced 
with bulbs of identical specifications 
and colour.
When refitting, close the protective 
cover carefully to preserve the sealing 
of the headlamp.
Rapid flashing of the direction indicator 
warning lamp (right or left) indicates the 
failure of a bulb on that side.
