-
t
he vehicle is completely stationary, with
your foot on the brake pedal,
-
t
he driver’s door is closed.
This hill start assist system cannot be
deactivated.

stationary and reverse gear engaged, the
vehicle is held momentarily when you
release the brake pedal.
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle
stationary, the vehicle is held for a momentarily

Gear efficiency indicator
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one or more gears.
You can follow this instruction without going
through the intermediate gears.-
Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.
-
Y
ou are in third gear.-
T
he system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear.
The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow.
On vehicles with manual gearbox, the arrow
may be accompanied by the recommended
g e a r.
The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (gradient, load,
...)
and the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking,
...).
The system never suggests:
-
e
ngaging first gear,
-
enga
ging reverse gear.
System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the most suitable gear.
Example:
On certain BlueHDi Diesel versions
with manual gearbox, the system may
suggest changing into neutral
(N
is
displayed in the instrument panel) so
that the engine can go into standby
(STOP mode with Stop & Start), in
certain driving conditions.
This function cannot be deactivated. The gear engagement
recommendations must not be
considered compulsory.
This is because the configuration of
the road, traffic density and safety
remain impor tant factors in the
choice of the best gear.
The gear efficiency indicator system
does not replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
