reverse gear
Raise the collar under the gear knob to
engage reverse gear. Never engage reverse gear before the
vehicle is completely stationary.
the lever should be moved slowly to reduce


the noise on engaging reverse gear.

operation when reverse gear is engaged; an
audible signal is heard.
Refer to the "technology on board -
Parking sensors" section.

reduced by suggesting when to change up.
the gear engagement recommendations


should not be considered to be compulsory.
this because the configuration of the


road, the traffic density and safety remain
determining factors when choosing the
best gear.
therefore, the driver remains


responsible for deciding whether or not to
follow the advice given by the system.
the system never recommends engaging


first gear or reverse, or changing down.

HILL StArt ASSISt
this system (also called HHC - Hill Holder
Control), linked to the dynamic stability
control system, makes hill starts easier and

is activated in the following conditions:
-
the vehicle must be stationary, engine


running, foot on the brake,
-
the gradient of the road must be steeper
than 5%,
-
uphill, the gearbox must be in neutral or
in a gear other than reverse,
-
downhill, reverse gear must be engaged.
the Hill Start

Assist system is a driving
aid. It is not an automatic vehicle parking
function or an automatic parking brake.operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal
pressed, from the time you release the brake
pedal, without using the parking brake, you
have approximately 2 seconds to move off
before the vehicle starts to roll back.
During the moving off phase, the function
is deactivated automatically, gradually
releasing the braking pressure. During
this phase, the characteristic noise of
mechanical release of the brakes may be
heard, indicating the imminent movement of
the vehicle.
operating fault
If a malfunction of the system
occurs, this warning lamp comes
on accompanied by an audible
signal and confirmed by a message
in the screen. Have the system checked by at
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. Hill start assist is deactivated in the following
situations:
-
when the clutch pedal is released,
-
when the parking brake is applied,
-
when the engine is switched off,
-
when the engine stalls.

Maintenance
Before working under the bonnet, you
must switch off the ignition with the
key to avoid any risk of injury resulting from
automatic operation of S
tARt mode.
this system requires a specific battery


with a special specification and technology
(reference numbers available from a
P
eugeOt dealer or a qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by
P
eugeOt


introduces the risk of malfunction

of the system.
the Stop & Start system makes use


of advanced technology. Specialist
knowledge is needed for any work on the
system, which can only be assured by
P
eugeOt dealers.
Refer to the "Quick help - Flat battery"
section.

Observe the driving regulations and remain
vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep
your hands on the wheel so that you are
ready to react at any time to any eventuality.
On a long journey, a break every two hours
is strongly recommended.
In difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate
the need to brake and increase the distance
from other vehicles.
driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on
flooded roads, as this could cause serious
damage to the engine or gearbox, as well as
to the electrical systems of your vehicle.If you are obliged to drive through water:
-
check that the depth of water does not
exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves


that might be generated by other users,
-
deactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
drive as slowly as possible without
stalling. In all cases, do not exceed

6 mph (10 km/h),
-
do not stop and do not switch off the


engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as
circumstances allow, make several light
brake applications to dry the brake discs and
pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle,
contact a P
eugeOt dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied -
Risk of overheating and damage to the
braking system!
Do not park or run the engine when
stationary in areas where inflammable
substances and materials (dry grass, dead
leaves...) might come into contact with the
hot exhaust system - Risk of fire!
Never leave a vehicle unsupervised with
the engine running. If you have to leave
your vehicle with the engine running, apply
the parking brake and put the gearbox into
neutral.
