Emergency braking
In the event of a failure of the main service brake or in an exceptional situation (e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction, etc) a continuous pull on control lever pull on control lever pull on control leverA will stop the vehicle . The dynamic stability control system (DSC) provides stability during emergency braking. If the emergency braking malfunctions, one of the following messages will be displayed: - "Parking brake faulty". - "Parking brake control faulty".
If a failure of the DSC system is signalled by illumination of this warning lamp, then braking stability is not guaranteed.
In this event, stability must be assured by the driver by repeating alternate "pull release" actions on control lever A .
The emergency braking must only be used in exceptional circumstances.
Special situations
In certain situations (e.g. starting the hybrid system), the parking brake can automatically alter its force. This is normal operation. To advance your vehicle a few centimetres without starting the engine, but with the ignition on, press on the brake pedal and release the parking brake by pulling then releasing control lever A . The full release of the parking brake is confirmed by the extinction of warning lamp in control lever A and of the warning lamp in the instrument panel and display of a message that the parking brake is off. If the parking brake malfunctions while applied or if the battery runs flat, an emergency release is always possible.

Hill start assist
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle stationar y, the vehicle is held for a brief moment when you release the brake pedal,if the gear selector is in position A or M .
On a descending slope, with the vehicle stationary and reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held for a brief moment when you release the brake pedal.
Operating fault
If a malfunction of the system occurs, these warning lamps come on. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked.
System which keeps your vehicle immobilised temporarily (approximately 2 seconds) when starting on a gradient, the time it takes to move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal. This function is only active when: - the vehicle is completely stationary, with your foot on the brake pedal, - in particular conditions on a slope, - with the driver’s door closed. The hill start assist function cannot be deactivated.
Do not exit the vehicle while it is being
held in the hill start assist phase. If you need to exit the vehicle with the hybrid system active, apply the parking brake manually then ensure that the parking brake warning lamp and the warning lamp P on the lever (of the electric brake) are permanently on.

System which projects various information onto a transparent strip in the field of vision of the driver so that they do not have to take their eyes off the road. This system operates with the ignition on and the Ready lamp on; the settings are stored when the ignition is switched off.

Head-up display
1. Head-up display on / off. 2. Brightness adjustment. 3. Display height adjustment. The strip is activated by pressing one of the buttons.
Once the system has been activated, the following information is grouped together in the head-up display: A. The speed of your vehicle. B. Cruise control/speed limiter information.
Buttons Displays during operation

172Driving
 Press button 1 . The activated/deactivated status when the engine was switched off is retained when the engine is switched on again.
Activation / Deactivation Brightness adjustment
 Adjust the brightness of the information using button 2 : - up to increase the brightness, - down to decrease the brightness.
Height adjustment
 Adjust the display to the required height using button 3 : - up to move the display up, - down to move the display down.
We recommend that adjustments are only made using these buttons when the vehicle is stationary. When stationary or while driving, no objects should be placed around the transparent strip (or on its cover) to avoid blocking the strip output and preventing its correct operation.
In certain extreme weather conditions (rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, ...) the head-up display may not be legible or may suffer temporary interference. Certain glasses (sunglasses, spectacles or polarised lenses) may hamper reading of the information.
To clean the transparent strip, which is made of organic glass, use a clean, soft cloth (such as a spectacles cloth or microfibre cloth). Do not use a dry or abrasive cloth or detergent or solvent products as these could scratch the strip or damage the anti-reflection coating.

Speed limiter
The controls of this system are grouped together on stalk A . 1. Speed limiter mode selection dial 2. Programmed value decrease button 3. Programmed value increase button 4. Speed limiter on / off button
The programmed information is grouped together on the instrument panel screen. 5. Speed limiter on / off indication 6. Speed limiter mode selection indication 7. Programmed speed value
Steering mounted controls Displays in the instrument panel
The speed limiter is switched on manually: it requires a programmed speed of at least 20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is switched off by manual switched off by manual switched offoperation of the control.
The programmed speed remains in the memory when the ignition is switched off.
System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the driver. When the programmed speed limit is reached, pressing the accelerator pedal no longer has any effect unless it is pressed firmly, which permits temporary exceeding of the programmed speed. To return to the programmed speed, simply slow down to a speed below the programmed speed by releasing the accelerator.
The speed limiter cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to observe speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance and responsibility on the part of the driver.
This information also appears in the head-up display. For more information, refer to the "Head-up display" section.
