Exceeding the programmed
speed
Return to normal driving Operating fault
On a steep descent or in the event of sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed. To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals: - ensure that the mat is positioned c o r r e c t l y, - do not fit one mat on top of another.
Turn dial 1 to the "0" position: the speed limiter mode is deselected. The display returns to the distance recorder.
In the event of a speed limiter malfunction, the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the programmed speed will not have any effect unless you press the pedal firmly past the point of resistance . The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the programmed speed, which is still displayed, flashes. Returning to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of the programmed speed.

Cruise control is switched on manually: it requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) and the engagement second gear in sequential mode (position M ).
Cruise control is switched off manually or by switched off manually or by switched offpressing the brake pedal or on triggering of the "dynamic stability control" system for safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal. To return to the programmed speed, simply release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any programmed speed value.
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 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.

Programming
Set the programmed speed by accelerating to the required speed, then press button 2or 3 (e.g.: 70 mph (110 km/h)).
Switch off the cruise control by pressing button 4 : the display confirms that it has been switched off (OFF/Pause).
Switch the cruise control back on by pressing button 4 again.
You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2 and 3 . - By + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short press. - By + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press. - In steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.
Turn wheel 1 to the "CRUISE" position: the cruise control mode is selected but is not switched on (OFF/Pause).

Exceeding the programmed
speed
Return to normal driving
Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the programmed speed results in flashing of this speed in the screen. Return to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of the speed.
Turn dial 1 to the "0" position: the cruise control mode is deselected. The display returns to the distance recorder.
In the event of a cruise control malfunction, the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the
dashes. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
When the cruise control is switched on, be careful if you maintain the pressure on one of the programmed speed changing buttons: this may result in a very rapid change in the speed of your
vehicle. Do not use the cruise control on slippery roads or in heavy traffic. On a steep descent, the cruise control will not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed. To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals: - ensure that the mat is positioned c o r r e c t l y, - never fit one mat on top of another.

With your foot on the brake, select this position to start. A. Automated mode. Move the selector backwards to select this mode. M. Sequential mode with manual changing of the gears at the steering wheel.
Steering mounted controls
"+" Change up paddle to the right of the steering wheel. Press the back of the "+" steering mounted paddle to change up a gear. "-" Change down paddle to the left of the steering wheel. Press the back of the "-" steering mounted paddle to change down a gear.
Six-speed electronic gearbox which offers a choice between the comfort of fully automatic operation or the pleasure of manual gear changing. Three driving modes are offered: - automated mode for automatic control of the gears by the gearbox, - sequential mode for manual changing of the gears by the driver, - auto sequential mode to overtake, for example, remaining in automatic mode while using the functions of the sequential mode.
The steering mounted paddles do not permit the selection of neutral or the engaging or disengaging of reverse g e a r.

programmed to automatic mode.
AUTO or R appears in the instrument panel screen.

Press the brake pedal down fully. Start the hybrid system.
If you leave the vehicle, place the gear selector in position N and you must switch off the hybrid system by switching off the ignition ( Ready lamp off).
There is an audible signal when reverse gear is engaged.
N flashes in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the multifunction screen, if the gear selector is not in position Non starting. Foot on brake flashes in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the multifunction screen, if the brake pedal is not pressed on starting.

Sequential mode
When the vehicle has moved off, select position M to change to sequential mode.
AUTO disappears and the gears engaged appear in succession in the instrument panel screen.
The gear change requests are only carried out if the engine speed permits. It is not necessary to release the accelerator during gear changes. When braking or slowing down, the gearbox changes down automatically so that the vehicle picks up in the right gear.
At very low speed, if reverse gear is requested, this will only be taken into account when the vehicle is immobilised. The Foot on brake warning lamp may flash on the instrument panel to prompt
you to brake. At high speed, if reverse gear is requested, the N indicator lamp will flash and the gearbox will change to neutral automatically. To engage a gear again, return the selector to position A or A or AM .
On sharp acceleration, the gearbox will not change up unless the driver acts on the gear selector or the steering mounted paddles. Never select neutral N while the vehicle is moving. Only engage reverse gear R when the vehicle is immobilised with the brake pedal pressed.
The gearbox is then operating in auto-active mode, without any action on the part of the driver. It continuously selects the most suitable gear in relation to the following parameters: - style of driving, - profile of the road.
AUTO and the gear engaged appear in the instrument panel
screen.
Automated mode
Following use of the sequential mode, select position A to return to the automatic mode.
For optimum acceleration, for example when overtaking another vehicle, press the accelerator pedal firmly past the point of resistance.

Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the hybrid system, you can choose to: - move to position N to engage neutral, - leave the gear engaged; in this case, it will not be possible to move the vehicle.
In both cases, it is essential that you apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle.
"Auto sequential" mode
This mode enables you to overtake, for example, remaining in automatic mode while using the functions of the sequential mode. Operate the "+" or "-" steering mounted paddle. The gearbox engages the gear requested if the engine speed permits. AUTO is still displayed in the instrument panel. After a few moments without any action on the controls, the gearbox resumes automatic control of the gears.
When immobilising the vehicle, with the hybrid system active, it is essential to place the gear selector in neutral N . Before doing anything in the engine compartment, check that the gear selector is in neutral N , the parking brake is applied, the ignition is off and the Ready lamp is off.
Move off and drive, without
accelerating
- put the gear lever in position N so as to be in neutral, - press the brake pedal, - place the selector in position A , R or M and release the brake. the vehicle moves off
and runs at about 6 mph (10 km/h) without accelerating.
It is essential to press the brake pedal when starting the hybrid system. When parking, is it essential to apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle, whatever the circumstances.
This function does not operate on slopes greater than about 5 %. It is deactivated if the driver's door is opened To reactivate it, close the door and then press the brake pedal or accelerator pedal.
