Manual mode
AUTO disappears and the gears engaged
appear in succession in the instrument panel
screen.
The gear change requests are only
carried out if the engine speed
permits.
It is not necessary to release the
accelerator during gear changes.
When braking or slowing down, the gearbox
changes down automatically to allow vehicle to
pull away in the correct gear. F
W
hen the vehicle has moved off, select
position M to change to manual mode for
sequential gear changing.
If position R , A or M
is selected, even
with the engine at idle, if the brakes are
released the vehicle moves without any
action on the accelerator. Never leave
children unsupervised in the vehicle
when the engine is running. When
carrying out maintenance on the vehicle
with the engine running, apply the
parking brake and select position N .
On sharp acceleration, the gearbox will
not change up unless the driver acts on
the gear lever or the steering mounted
paddles.
Never select neutral N while the vehicle
is moving.
Only engage reverse gear R when the
vehicle is immobilised with the brake
pedal pressed. At very low speed, if reverse gear is
requested, this will only be taken into
account when the vehicle is immobilised.
The Foot on brake warning lamp may
flash in the instrument panel to prompt you
to brake.
At high speed, if reverse gear is
requested, the N indicator lamp will flash
and the gearbox will change to neutral
automatically. To engage a gear again,
return the lever to position A or M.

Stopping the vehicleOperating fault
With the ignition on, if this warning
lamp comes on and AUTO flashes,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen, this
indicates a fault with the gearbox.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Before switching off the engine, you can
choose to:
-
m
ove to position N to engage neutral,
-
l
eave the gear engaged; in this case, it will
not be possible to move the vehicle.
In both cases, it is essential that you apply the
parking brake to immobilise the vehicle, unless
it is programmed in automatic mode.
When immobilising the vehicle, with the
engine running, it is essential to place
the gear lever in neutral N .
Before carrying out any work in the
engine compartment, check that the
gear lever is in neutral N and that the
parking brake is applied. It is essential to press the brake pedal
when starting the engine.
When parking, is it essential to apply
the parking brake to immobilise the
vehicle, whatever the circumstances.
When driving on flooded roads or when
crossing a ford, drive at walking speed.

Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can
engage position P or N to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle, unless it is programmed
to automatic mode.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, the lighting
of this warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message
in the multifunction screen,
indicates a gearbox malfunction.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel
a substantial knock when changing from P
to R and from N to R . This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
This warning lamp may also come on if a door
is opened.Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions). You risk damaging the gearbox:
-
i
f you press the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time,
- i f you force the lever from position P
to another position when the
battery is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffic jam...), position
the gear lever at N and apply the
parking brake, unless it is programmed
in automatic mode.
If the lever is not in position P , when the
driver's door is opened or approximately
45 seconds after the ignition is switched
off, there is an audible signal and a
message appears.

Reactivation
Press the "ECO OFF" switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed by
the indicator lamp in the switch going off and a
message in the screen.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the system, the
indicator lamp in the "ECO OFF" switch
flashes then comes on continuously.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall: all the instrument panel
warning lamps come on. It is then necessary
to switch off the ignition and start the engine
again using the key.
Maintenance
This system requires a 12 V battery with a
special specification and technology (reference
numbers available from PEUGEOT dealers).
Fitting a battery not listed by PEUGEOT
introduces the risk of malfunction of the
system.
To charge the battery, use a 12 V charger and
observe the polarity.
The system is reactivated automatically
at every new start using the key.
The Stop & Start system makes use of
advanced technology. For any work on
the system go to a qualified workshop with
the skills and equipment required, which a
PEUGEOT dealer is able to provide. Before doing anything under the
bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid any risk of injury
resulting from automatic operation of
S TA R T m o d e .
When driving on flooded roads or
crossing a ford, switch off the Stop &
Start and drive at walking speed.

The flashing and then fixed
illumination of the under-inflation
warning lamp accompanied by
the illumination of the service warning lamp
indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is
not assured.
This alert is also displayed when one or
more wheels is not fitted with a sensor
(for example, a space-saver or steel
spare wheel).
Under-inflation alert
The alert is given by the fixed illumination
of this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal, and depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres,
the symbol or the message appears, according
to equipment, to identify it. F

movements or harsh brake applications.

top as soon as it is safe to do so.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always lead to visible deformation of the
tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check. The alert is maintained until the tyre or
tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired
or replaced.
The spare wheel (space-saver type or a
steel rim) does not have a sensor.
Operating fault
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop
to have the system checked
or, following the repair of a puncture, to
have the original wheel, equipped with a
sensor, refitted.
F
I
f you have a compressor (the one in the
temporary puncture repair kit for example),
check the four tyre pressures when cold.
I
f it is not possible to check the tyre
pressures at the time, drive carefully at
reduced speed.
or
F
I
n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (according to equipment).
Any tyre repair or replacement on a
wheel fitted with this system must be
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If after changing a tyre, a wheel is not
detected by your vehicle (fitting snow
tyres for example), you must have the
system reinitialised by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
