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.
Operation
Going into engine STOP
mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes on in the i
nstrument panel and the engine goes into
s
tandby
a
utomatically:
-
w
ith a manual gearbox ,
at speeds below
1
2 mph (20 km/h), or vehicle stationary
(
with PureTech 130, THP 165 and BlueHDi
1
00, 115 and 120 versions), when you
p
lace the gear lever in neutral, and you
r
elease the clutch pedal,
-
w
ith an ETG6 electronic gearbox , at
speeds
below 5 mph (8 km/h), when you
p
ress the brake pedal or place the gear
s
elector lever in position N ,
-
w
ith an automatic gearbox , with the
vehicle stationary, when you press the
brake
pedal or place the gear selector lever
i
n position N . Never
refuel with the engine in STOP
m
ode; you must switch off the ignition
w
ith the START/STOP button.
For
your comfort, during parking
m
anoeuvres, STOP mode is not
a
vailable for a few seconds after
c
oming out of reverse gear.
STOP
mode does not affect the
f
unctionality of the vehicle, such as for
example,
braking, power steering...
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- t he driver's door is open,
-
t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-
t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(
10 km/h) since the last engine start using
t
he START/STOP button,
-
t
he electric parking brake is applied or
be
ing
a

-
t
he engine is needed to maintain a
c
omfortable temperature in the passenger
c
ompartment,
-
d
emisting is active,
-
s
ome special conditions (battery charge,
e
ngine temperature, braking assistance,
a
mbient temperature...) where the engine is
n
eeded to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO"
warning lamp
f
lashes for a few seconds then goes

Lane departure warning system
System which, using a camera which recognises solid or broken lines, detects the
i
nvoluntary crossing of longitudinal traffic lane
m
arkings on the ground.
To
provide safe driving, the camera analyses
t
he image then, if the driver's attention drops,
t
riggers a warning if the vehicle drifts over
a
lane marking (speed higher than 50 mph
(
80 km/h)).
This
system is particularly useful on motor ways
a
nd main roads. Activation
and deactivation of the function is

360 Vision
This system provides a view in the instrument panel of the near surroundings of your vehicle,

sing cameras mounted at the front and rear of
y
our vehicle and under the door mirrors.
Depending
on the angle of view chosen
(front
view, rear view or 360° panoramic view),

60 Vision provides special visual assistance
i
n particular driving conditions such as when
e
ntering a blind crossing or manoeuvring in
a
reas of reduced visibility.
Once
activated, this function operates up to
9 m

f
unction is deactivated automatically. This
system is a visual aid which in no

ircumstances can replace the need for
v
igilance on the part of the driver.
The images provided by the cameras
m
ay be deformed by the relief. The
p
resence of areas in shade, in sunny
c
onditions, or of low ambient light may
d
arken the image and reduce contrast.
Forward vision
The camera located in the front bumper is a
ctivated and views of the areas located at
