IGNITION SWITCH
Ignition on position
It allows the use of the vehicle's electric equipment or portable devices to be charged.
Once the state of charge of the battery drops to the reserve level, the \
system switches to energy economy mode: the power supply is cut off
automatically to preserve the remaining battery charge.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can stay on for a longer
period. When the engine is hot, the warning lamp does not
come
on.
STARTING-SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE
It has 3 positions:
-
position 1 (Stop): insert and removing the key,
-
position 2 (Ignition on) : steering column unlocked, ignition on,
Diesel preheating, engine running,
-
position 3 (Starting).
STARTING THE ENGINE
With the parking brake applied and the gearbox in neutral or
position
N or P:
F

depress the clutch pedal fully (manual gearbox),


or
F press
the brake pedal firmly (automatic gearbox),
F

insert the key into the ignition switch; the system recognises
the

code,
F

unlock the steering column by simultaneously turning the steering
and the key

.
F

With a petrol engine, operate the starter motor by turning the key to
position 3

without pressing the accelerator pedal, until the engine
starts. Once the engine is running, release the key.
F

With a Diesel engine, turn the key to position 2

, ignition on, to
operate the engine pre-heating system.
In certain cases, you may have to apply more force to the steering
(wheels on full lock, for example).
Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key, which would weigh down
on its blade in the ignition switch and could cause a malfunction. Switching off the engine leads to a loss of braking assistance. Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the instrument panel
then operate the starter motor by turning the key to position
3
without pressing the accelerator pedal, until the engine starts.
Once the engine is running, release the key.

In temperate conditions, do not leave the engine at idle to warm
up but move off straight away and drive at moderate speed.To facilitate unlocking of the steering column, it is recommended
that the wheels be returned to the straight ahead position before
switching off the engine.
For more information, refer to the "Practical information" section,
under "Energy economy mode". When you leave the vehicle, keep the key with you and lock
the
vehicle.
If the engine does not start straight 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.
Never switch off the ignition before the vehicle is at a complete
stop. With the engine off, the braking and steering assistance
systems are also cut off: risk of loss of control of the vehicle.
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 of

f.
SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE

.
F

sloping ground.
Energy economy mode
After switching off the engine (position 1-Stop), for a maximum of
30 minutes you can still use functions such as the audio and telematic
system, the wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps,

HILL START ASSIST
System which keeps your vehicle immobilised temporarily
(approximately 2 seconds) when starting on a gradient, the time it tak\
es
to move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
OPERATION
This function is only active when:
-

the vehicle is completely stationary
, with your foot on the brake
pedal,
-

certain conditions of slope are met,
-


with the driver
’s door closed.
The hill start assist system cannot be deactivated.
Do not exit the vehicle while it is being held in the hill start assist \
phase.
OPERATING FAULT
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle stationary, the vehicle is
held for a brief moment when you release the brake pedal:
- provided
you are in first gear or neutral on a manual gearbox,
-

provided you are in position d
or M on an automatic gearbox. On a descending slope, with the vehicle stationary and reverse
gear engaged, the vehicle is held for a brief moment when you
release the brake pedal.
If you need to exit the vehicle with the engine running,
apply the parking brake and then check that the
corresponding warning lamp in the instrument panel is on.
If a malfunction of the system occurs, these warning lamps come on.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified workshop.
