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 fi tted 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 traffi c noise.
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
(fi lm, 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.
ECO-DRIVING
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to \
optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds
above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffi c is fl owing well.

ACCESS
ALARM *
System which protects and provides a deterrent against theft and
break-ins. It provides the following types of monitoring.
- 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 compa\
rtment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a window, enters the passenger
compartment or moves inside the vehicle.
- tilt
The system checks for any change in the attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle is lifted, moved or knocked. For all work on the alarm system, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
LOCKING THE VEHICLE WITH FULL ALARM
SYSTEM
Activation
 Switch off the ignition and get out of the vehicle.
 Press the locking button on the remote control.
The monitoring system is active: the indicator lamp in the button fl ashes
once per second.
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 and anti-tilt monitoring after a delay of 45 seconds\
.
Deactivation
 Press the unlocking button on the remote control.
The alarm system is deactivated: the indicator lamp in the button goes o\
ff.
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 siren
wiring are put out of service or damaged.
* According to country. 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
and anti-tilt monitoring.

5/
SAFETY

Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down,
stuck in snow, on soft ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate the
DSC and ASR, so that the wheels can turn freely and regain grip.
Reactivate the systems as soon as the level of grip permits.
 Press this button.
The indicator lamp in the button comes on.
The DSC and ASR systems no longer act on the operation of the engine
and on the brakes in the event of a involuntary change of trajectory.
This action also deactivates the automatic operation of hazard warning
lamps (except for the 1.6 litre THP 270 hp version).
Reactivation
The systems are reactivated automatically each time the ignition is
switched back on.
You can also reactivate them manually:
 Press this button again.
This action also reactivates the automatic operation of hazard warning
lamps (except for the 1.6 litre THP 270 hp version).
Operating fault DSC/ASR
The DSC and ASR systems offer increased safety in normal
driving, but they should not encourage the driver to take extra
risks or drive at high speed.
It is in diffi cult driving conditions (rain, snow, ice) that the risk of
loss of grip increases. It is therefore important for your safety to
keep the DSC and ASR systems activated in all conditions, and
particularly in diffi cult conditions.
The correct operation of these systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer's recommendations regarding as much the
wheels (tyres and rims), braking and electronic components as the
assembly and repair procedures used by PEUGEOT dealers.
To benefi t in full from the effectiveness of the DSC and ASR
systems in wintry conditions, the vehicle must be fi tted with four
snow tyres, allowing the the vehicle to retain neutral behaviour on
the road. Illumination of this warning lamp and the lamp in the
deactivation button, accompanied by an audible signal and a
message, indicate a fault with the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop to have the system
checked.
After an impact, have these systems checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

DRIVING
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
 Select position D for automatic changing of the six gears.
Never select position N while the vehicle is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless the vehicle is completely
stationary.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive mode, without any
intervention on the part of the driver. It continuously selects the most
suitable gear according to the style of driving, the profi le of the road and
the load in the vehicle.
D and the gears selected automatically appear in succession in the
instrument panel.
For maximum acceleration without touching the lever, press the
accelerator 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.
SPORT AND SNOW PROGRAMMES
These two special programmes supplement the automatic operation in
very specifi c conditions of use.
Sport programme "S"
 Press button
"S" , after starting the engine.
The gearbox automatically favours a dynamic style of driving.
S appears in the instrument panel.
Snow programme "  "
 Press button "  ", after starting the engine.
The gearbox adapts to driving on slippery roads.
This programme improves starting and drive when traction is poor.
 appears in the instrument panel.
RETURN TO AUTOMATIC OPERATION
 At any time, press the button selected again to quit the programme engaged and return to auto-adaptive mode.
MANUAL OPERATION
 Select position M for sequential changing of the six gears.
 Push the lever towards the + sign to change up a gear.
 Pull the lever towards the - sign to change down a gear.
