Front and rear foglamps 
 
The foglamps should only be used in 
fog or when snow is falling. 
  In clear weather or in rain, both day and 
night, lit rear fog lamps dazzle and are 
prohibited. 
  Do not forget to switch them off when they 
are no longer necessary.  
 
 
Guide-me-home lighting 
 
The temporary maintaining of the dipped 
beam headlamps, after switching off the 
vehicle's ignition, makes the driver's exit 
easier when the light is poor by illuminating 
the space in front of the vehicle. 
   
Activation  
  With the ignition key in the  STOP  position 
or removed, pull the lighting stalk towards 
the steering wheel within 2 minutes after 
switching off the engine. 
  Each time the control is operated, the 
duration for which the lamps will remain 
on is extended by 30 seconds, up to a 
maximum of 210 seconds. Once this period 
of time has elapsed, the lamps switch off 
automatically. 
   
Deactivation  
  Pull the lighting stalk towards the steering 
wheel for more than 2 seconds.     The front foglamps operate with 
the sidelamps and the dipped 
beam headlamps. 
  The rear foglamps operate with 
the dipped beam headlamps. 
  Press one of these controls to switch on the 
lamps.   The warning lamp comes on, 
accompanied by a message in the 
screen, the first time the control is

Changing the programmed speed 
 
There are two methods of memorising a 
speed higher than the previous one: 
   
Switching the function off 
 
 
 
-   Place the ring in the 
  OFF 
 position or switch 
off the ignition to switch 
everything off.  
 
 
 
Cancelling the programmed speed 
 
When the vehicle becomes stationary, after 
switching off the ignition, the system no 
longer memorises a speed.  
 
 
Operating fault 
 
If the system does not operate correctly, turn 
the ring to the OFF position and contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.  
 
 
Good practice 
 
When changing the programmed speed by 
means of a maintained press, pay attention 
as the speed can increase or decrease 
rapidly. 
  Do not use the cruise control on slippery 
roads or in heavy traffic. 
  Never engage neutral while the system is 
operating. 
  In the event of a steep slope, the cruise 
control cannot prevent the vehicle from 
exceeding the programmed speed. 
  In any event, the cruise control cannot 
replace the need to observe the speed limits, 
nor can it replace the need for vigilance and 
responsibility on the part of the driver. 
  It is advisable to leave your feet near the 
pedals. 
  To avoid any jamming under the pedals: 
   
 
-   ensure that the mat and its fixings on the 
floor are positioned correctly, 
   
-   never place one mat on top of another.  
    Without using the 
accelerator: 
   
 
-   move the control up (+).  
  Each brief press increases 
the speed by 1 mph (km/h). 
  Using the accelerator: 
   
 
-   exceed the memorised speed until the 
speed required is reached, 
   
-   move the control up (+) for at least one 
second, then release it.  
  To memorise a speed lower 
than the previous one: 
   
 
-   move the control 
down (-); the new speed 
will be memorised 
automatically.  
 
A brief press decreases the speed by 1 mph (km/h).  
A maintained press decreases the speed 
gradually.     A maintained press increases the speed 
gradually. 
  FIXED SPEED LIMITER 
 
This function allows a fixed maximum speed 
limit to be set for the vehicle (according 
to version and only on the 1.3 HDi 75 hp 
engine). 
  The maximum speed can be set to one of 
4 pre-defined values: 56, 62, 68 or 80 mph 
(90, 100, 110 or 130 km/h). 
   
A label in the passenger compartment 
indicates the presence of this function 
and its setting. 
  This function cannot be deactivated or set 
by the driver.

Mirrors and windows  
 
 
ELECTRIC WINDOWS 
 
 
Electric controls 
 
On the driver's side, the electric window 
has a safety anti-pinch function and is 
associated with one-touch controls for 
lowering and raising. 
  From the driver's seat, the controls placed 
on the door operate the vehicle's front 
windows. 
  On the passenger's side, the control 
operates the passenger's front window.  
 
 
One-touch control 
 
An extended press on the control for the 
driver's window raises or lowers the window 
completely. 
  Press the control again to stop the window. 
  Press the control briefly to start the 
movement of the window.  
 
 
Manual controls 
 
Turn the window winder located on the door 
trim panel.  
 
 
Good practice 
 
Always remove the key from the ignition 
when leaving the vehicle, even for a short 
time. 
  If the electric window meets an obstacle 
during operation, you must reverse the 
movement of the window. To do this, press 
the control concerned. 
  When the driver operates the passenger 
electric window controls, they must ensure 
that no one is preventing correct closing of 
the windows. 
  The driver must ensure that the passenger 
uses the electric window correctly. 
   
Be aware of children when operating the 
windows.

Gearbox and steering wheel  
 
 
 
Moving off 
 
 
 
You must press the brake pedal.  
  Start the engine; the gearbox changes into 
neutral automatically. 
  The gear lever stays in the position selected 
before switching off the ignition. 
   
"N" 
 appears in the instrument panel screen, 
accompanied by an audible signal when 
you release the brake pedal, to indicate that 
there is a difference between the position of 
the gear lever and the gear selected in the 
gearbox. 
  Select first gear (move the lever towards  + 
) 
or reverse (position  R 
). 
   
"1" 
 or  "R" 
 appears in the instrument panel 
screen. 
  Release the parking brake. 
  Remove your foot from the brake pedal and 
then accelerate away.     
 
The AUTO or sequential mode used 
before switching off the ignition remains 
in memory when the vehicle is restarted.    
Stopping - Starting on a slope 
 
This gearbox is electronically controlled and 
does not have a clutch pedal. 
   
Do not use the accelerator pedal to 
  hold  
  the vehicle on a slope, apply the parking 
brake instead; failure to follow this 
procedure can overheat the clutch and 
damage the gearbox 
. 
  When moving off on a slope, accelerate 
gradually while releasing the parking brake.      
It is also possible to move off in 2 
nd  
gear on slippery surfaces (2 nd   press 
on +). 
   
Automated mode 
 
Once you have moved off, you can switch to 
automated mode by selecting position  A/M 
. 
   
"AUTO" 
 and the gear engaged 
appear in the instrument panel 
screen. 
  The gearbox then operates in auto-active 
mode, without any action on the part of the 
driver. 
  It continuously selects the most appropriate 
gear depending on the: 
   
 
-  vehicle speed, 
   
-  engine speed, 
   
-   accelerator pedal position.  
  To optimise driving comfort and obtain the 
most suitable gear, avoid sharp variations in 
the pressure on the accelerator pedal. 
  If you fully depress the accelerator pedal, 
the gearbox changes down for sharper 
acceleration.    By rapidly pushing the accelerator fully 
down, the vehicle moves off quickly.

  This programme works with the automated 
mode to reduce fuel consumption. 
  Press button  E 
 to activate the programme. 
 
 
Sequential mode 
 
After using the automated mode, you can 
return to the sequential mode by selecting 
position  A 
/ M 
 again. 
   
"E" 
 appears in the instrument 
panel screen, next to  "AUTO"  
and the gear selected by the 
gearbox. 
  The gearbox then selects the best gear for 
the speed of the vehicle, the engine speed 
and the accelerator pedal position to reduce 
fuel consumption.  
    
"AUTO" 
 disappears and the 
gears engaged appear in 
succession in the instrument 
panel screen. 
  t is not necessary to take your foot off the 
accelerator pedal to change the gear. 
  The gear change requests are only carried 
out if the engine speed permits it. The 
system gives an audible signal if a gear 
change is not possible. 
  At low speeds, when approaching a stop 
or traffic lights for example, the gearbox 
changes down to first gear automatically.     
 
Release the brake pedal after the display 
of the gear engaged has disappeared 
from the instrument panel screen. 
  Never leave the vehicle with the 
gearbox in neutral (position  N 
). In this 
case, there is an audible signal on switching 
off the ignition (ignition key in 
the  STOP 
 position).

panel screen goes off. 
  Turn the ignition key to the  MAR 
 position 
again.    
The illumination of this warning 
lamp, accompanied by a message 
in the instrument panel screen, 
indicates incorrect use of the 
gearbox by the driver. 
  With the ignition on, the flashing this warning 
lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and 
a message in the instrument panel screen, 
indicates a fault with the gearbox. 
  Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop.     
If the problem persist, have the system 
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop.  
  Never select neutral  N

This procedure should be applied if pressing 
the brake pedal is not recognised by the 
system, or if the gearbox has fault on 
starting the engine. 
  Press the brake pedal firmly. 
  Turn the ignition key to the  AV V 
 position for 
at least seven seconds. 
  The engine starts. 
  The system is in back-up mode; the gearbox 
will not go beyond the 3 rd  gear engaged and 
automated mode is not available. 
  If the engine does not start, have the 
system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer 
or a qualified workshop.  
 
 
 
 
Operating fault  
 
In the event of a prolonged stop with 
the engine running, it is recommended 
that the gearbox be put into neutral 
(position  N 
). 
  With the vehicle stationary, the engine 
running and first, second or reverse 
gear engaged, the gearbox changes to 
neutral automatically, accompanied by 
an audible signal, in the following 
circumstances: 
   
 
-   no action on the accelerator or brake 
pedals for at least 3 minutes, 
   
-   brake pedal applied for more than 
10 minutes, 
   
-   driver's door opened and no action on the 
accelerator or brake pedals for at least 
1.5 seconds, 
   
-   a gearbox fault.  
 
 
  When towing your vehicle, ensure that 
the gearbox is in neutral (position  N 
).

-   reverse gear is engaged, 
   
-   some special conditions (battery 
charge, engine temperature, particle 
filter regeneration, braking assistance, 
ambient temperature...) where the engine 
is needed to assure control of a system.  
  In this case, a message appears 
in the instrument panel screen, 
accompanied by the  "S" 
 warning 
lamp, which flashes for a 
few seconds, then goes off. 
   
This operation is perfectly normal.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
STOP & START 
 
The Stop & Start system puts the engine 
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - 
during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic 
jams, or other...). The engine restarts 
automatically - START mode - as soon as 
you want to move off. The restart takes 
place instantly, quickly and silently. 
  Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start 
system reduces fuel consumption, exhaust 
emissions and the noise level when 
stationary. 
   
Operation 
 
 
Going into engine STOP mode 
  The  "S" 
 warning lamp comes on 
in the instrument panel and the 
engine goes into standby:   Automatic stopping of the engine is 
only possible after the vehicle has 
exceed a speed of about 6 mph (10 km/h), 
to avoid repeated stopping of the engine 
when driving slowly. 
  In the STOP mode Stop & Start, hill 
start assist is inactive. 
  Never leave your vehicle with out first 
turning off the ignition with the key. 
  Never refuel with the engine in STOP
