Mud mode
Mode which, when moving off allows
considerable spin on the wheel with the least
grip to optimise clearing of the mud and regain
grip. At the same time, the wheel with the most
grip is controlled in such a way as to pass as
much torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.

Sand mode
Mode which allows little spin on the two driving
wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to
move for ward and limit the risks of getting stuck
in the sand.

Driving advice
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive on tarmac roads but it allows you
to drive on other less passable terrain
occasionally.
However, it does not permit off-road
driving such as:
-
c
rossing and driving on terrain
which could damage the underbody
or strip away components (fuel
pipe, fuel cooler,
...) due to
obstacles or stones in particular,
-
d
riving on terrain with steep
gradients and poor grip,
-
c
rossing a stream.
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck. These functions are reactivated
automatically from 30 mph (50 km/h) or
every time the ignition is switched back on.

Electronic engine immobiliser
In the event of a fault, you are informed
by illumination of this warning lamp, an
audible signal and/or the display of a
message, depending on version.
In this case, your vehicle will not start;
contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as
possible.
Keep safely, away from your vehicle,
the label attached to the keys given to
you on acquisition of the vehicle.
The keys contain an electronic chip which has
a special code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised for engine
starting to be authorised.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks the
engine management system a few minutes
after the ignition is switched off and prevents
starting of the engine by anyone who does not
have the key.

away, switch off the ignition. Wait a
few moments before operating the
starter motor again. If the engine does
not start after several attempts, do not
keep trying: you risk damaging the
starter motor or the engine. Contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

off straight away and drive at moderate
speed.Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion
engines emit toxic exhaust gases,
such as carbon monoxide. Danger of
intoxication and death.
In very severe wintry conditions
(temperatures below -23°C), to ensure
the correct operation and durability of
the mechanical components of your
vehicle, engine and gearbox, it is
necessary to leave the engine running
for 4 minutes before moving off.

operation
Activation / deactivation of
automatic mode is done via
the vehicle configuration menu
(automatic mode is on by
default).
Deactivation is confirmed by
illumination of this indicator lamp in
the instrument panel, accompanied
by the display of a message.
If automatic mode is deactivated, the parking
brake is then applied and released manually .
Deactivation is recommended in
particularly cold conditions (ice) and
when towing (breakdown, caravan...).
Where the automatic operation cannot
be deactivated, refer to the "Parking the
vehicle, brake released" section.
Do not place any object (packet of
cigarettes, telephone, ...) behind the
electric brake control.
Label on the door panel
Before leaving the vehicle, check that
parking brake applied indicator lamp is
on in the instrument panel. For certain countries of sale, automatic
application when the engine is switched off
and automatic release when you press the
accelerator can be deactivated.
