Sport programme
Operation
This special programme completes the
automatic operation of the gearbox in certain
circumstances.F Press the "S" button once the
engine is running.
The gearbox automatically operates in a way
best suited to dynamic driving.
S appears in the instrument panel.

F Press the "S" button again at any time to
quit the Sport programme and return to
auto-adaptive mode.
Switching off - Parking
Before switching off the engine.
F Move the lever to position P or N .
F Apply the parking brake.
F Immobilise the vehicle.
You risk damaging the gearbox:
F if you press the brake and
accelerator pedals at the same
time,
F if you force the movement of the
lever from position P to another
position with a flat battery.
To reduce fuel consumption during
prolonged stops with the engine running
(traffic jams...), position the gear lever
at N and apply the parking brake.
If the lever is not in position P
, a
message appears in the screen
on opening the driver's door or
approximately 45 seconds after
switching off the ignition.
F Place the lever at position P ; the
message disappears.
On flooded roads or when crossing a
ford, drive at walking pace. With the ignition on, illumination
of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and an alert message in the screen,
indicates of gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox goes into back-up
mode by staying in 3rd gear. You may then
notice a pronounced jerk when changing
from P to R and from N to R . This jerk does not
present any risk to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 62 mph (100 km/h) while
keeping to local speed limits.

Snow chains
The snow chains must be fitted only
to the front wheels. They must never
be fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
chains and the maximum running speed
authorised.Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted
with alloy wheels, check that no part of
the chain or its fixings is in contact with
the wheel rim.
Advice on installation
F
If you have to fit the chains during a
journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
on the side of the road.
F Apply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks to prevent movement of your
vehicle.
F Fit the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
F Move off gently and drive for a few
moments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50 km/h).
F Stop your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
For more information on snow chains, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face.
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.
