SPORT and SNOW
programmes
SPORT programme "S"
These two special programmes supplement
the automatic operation in very particular
conditions of use.
F With the gear selector in position D and the
engine running, press button A .
The gearbox automatically favours a dynamic
driving style.
SNOW programme " T"
F With the gear selector in position D and the
engine running, press button B .
The gearbox adapts to driving on slippery
roads.
This programme makes moving off easier and
improves traction in conditions of poor grip.
T appears in the instrument panel.
S appears in the instrument panel.
Return to automatic operation
F At any time, press the button selected
again to exit from the programme engaged
and return to auto-adaptive mode. A strong snatch may be felt when
selecting
R for reverse gear.
In the event of a fault, the gearbox is
blocked in one gear; do not exceed a
speed of 62 mph (100 km/h).
Do not turn off the engine while the gear
selector is in position D or R .
Never press the accelerator and brake
pedals simultaneously. Braking and
acceleration should be done with the
right foot only. Pressing both pedals
simultaneously may damage the
gearbox.

qualified workshop.
If the ambient temperature is
below -23°C, the engine should be left
running at idle for four minutes, in order
to ensure the correct operation and
durability of the engine and gearbox.

System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the most appropriate
g e a r.
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one (or more) gear(s). You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
The gear engagement recommendations must
not be considered compulsory. In fact, the
configuration of the road, the amount of traffic
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.
This function cannot be deactivated.Example:
- You are in third gear.
- You press the accelerator pedal.
Gear efficiency indicator*
Operation
With an automatic gearbox, the system
is only active in manual mode.
* Depending on engine. On BlueHDi Diesel 150 versions with manual
gearbox, the system may suggest changing into
neutral so that the engine can go into standby
(STOP mode with Stop & Start), in certain
driving conditions. In this case, N is displayed
in the instrument panel. The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow.
On vehicle fitted with a manual gearbox,
the arrow may be accompanied by the gear
recommended.
The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (slope, load, ...) and
the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking, ...).
The system never suggests:
- engaging first gear,
- engaging reverse gear.
- The system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear.

Stop & Start
Operation
- with a manual gearbox, at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) with BlueHDi Diesel
versions, when you put the gear lever into
neutral and release the clutch pedal,
- with an automatic gearbox, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or place the gear lever in position N .
Going into engine STOP
mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically: If your vehicle is fitted with the
system, a time counter calculates
the sum of the periods in STOP
mode during a journey. It resets
itself to zero every time the ignition
is switched on with the key.
Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
In this case, the "ECO"
warning
lamp flashes for a few seconds, then
goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal. STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the vehicle is on a steep slope
(up or down),
- the driver's door is open,
- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,
- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start using
the key,
- the electric parking brake is applied or
being applied,
- the engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
- demisting is active,
- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
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.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
STOP mode does not affect the functionality of
the vehicle, such as braking, power steering,
for example.Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key.
