As the engine torque is applied to all
four wheels, the condition of the tyres
has a considerable impact on the
performance of the vehicle.
en
sure that all four tyres are in good
condition.
Avoid driving the vehicle in sandy or
muddy areas or in other areas in which
the wheels could spin.
Spinning the wheels places the
transmission components under
pressure and could cause a serious
malfunction.
Do not drive the vehicle through deep
water.
Avoid driving over excessively uneven
terrain (risk of scraping under the body
or of grounding on crossing a bridge).
Operating faults
If the selected transmission mode display
flashes, the vehicle switches automatically to
front "2WD" transmission mode.
It is then no longer possible to select the
transmission mode using the control A .
If the message "SLOW DOWN" is displayed on
the instrument panel, let the transmission cool
down then wait for the display to clear before
setting off again.
If "4WD" and "LOCK" are displayed alternately
and if "S
eR

VIC
e
R
eQuI
R
eD
" is displayed in
the instrument panel, the system has failed and
the safety system has been activated.
Contact a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay. Have your vehicle towed on a
flatbed.
th

e vehicle must not be towed with the
front or rear wheels on the ground even
if it is in front "2WD" (2 wheel drive)
mode.If the replacement of a tyre is
necessary on 4-wheel drive versions,
it is recommended that all four tyres be
replaced at the same time, ensuring
that the same make, model and size is
used on all wheels.
th

is is because using tyres of different
sizes, structure or rate of wear could
damage transmission components.

Associated systems which guarantee the directional stability of the vehicle within the limits of the laws of physics:
- t raction control (tC L),
-

a
ctive stability control (ASC).
Traction control and active stability control
traction control optimises traction to prevent
wheel spin, by acting on the brakes of the
driving wheels and on the engine.
Active stability control acts on the brake of one
or more wheels and on the engine to keep the
vehicle on the trajectory required by the driver.Activation
these systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
th

e illumination of this warning lamp
in the instrument panel indicates
that the ASC and
t
C
L systems are
deactivated.
