HILL StAR t ASSIS t
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
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 of
f,
-
when the engine stalls.
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 P
eugeo T
dealer or a qualified workshop.

(DSC)
These systems are linked and
complement the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and
avoiding losses of control of the vehicle
on acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent
the wheels skidding, by acting on the
brakes of the drive wheels and on the
engine. It also allows the directional
stability of the vehicle to be improved
on acceleration.
u
se the DSC to hold your course
without attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the DSC
system automatically acts on the
engine and the brake of one or more
wheels, in order to put the vehicle back
on course.
Deactivation
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting the vehicle when stuck in mud
or snow, or on loose ground...), it could
prove useful to deactivate the ASR and
DSC systems to make the wheels spin
and regain grip.
operating fault
g
ood practice
The ASR/DSC systems offer increased
safety during normal driving, but
should not incite the driver to take risks
or to drive at high speed.
The operation of these systems is
ensured if the recommendations
of the manufacturer regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking components, the electronic
components and the fitting and repair
procedures are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a P eugeo T dealer or a
qualified workshop.
operation
The warning lamp flashes
when operation of the ASR or
DSC is triggered.
t
hey engage again:
-
automatically above 30 mph
(50 km/h), When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the warning
lamp and the L
e D come on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen.
-
Press the button or turn
the dial to the DSC
o FF
position (depending on
model).
-
The L
e D comes on: the ASR and
DSC systems no longer come into
play.
-
manually by pressing the
button again or by turning
the dial to this position
(depending on model). Contact a P
eugeo T dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the system
checked.
The warning lamp may also come on if
the tyres are under-inflated. Check the
pressure of each tyre.

operation
When your vehicle is too close to or
approaches the vehicle ahead too
quickly the system automatically
applies the brakes to avoid a collision.
You are then alerted by the display of a
message.
The brake lamps on your vehicle come
on to warn other road users.
The collision can be avoided
automatically if the difference in speed
between your vehicle and the vehicle
ahead does not exceed 9 mph
(15 km/h).
Above this threshold, the system will
do what is possible to avoid or reduce
the accident by lowering the speed of
impact.
The automatic braking may bring
the vehicle to a complete stop if the
situation requires it.
In this case, the vehicle is held
stationary temporarily (for about
1.5 seconds) to allow the driver to take
back control by pressing the brake
pedal.The triggering of the system may
cause the engine to stall, unless
the driver depresses the clutch
pedal quickly enough during automatic
braking.
During automatic braking, the
driver can always obtain a higher
rate of deceleration than that
controlled by the system, by pressing
firmly on the brake pedal.
After an impact, the system is
automatically put out of service: it
no longer operates.
You must go to a P
eugeo T dealer
or a qualified workshop to have the
system made operational again.
operating limits
The system only detects vehicles that
are stationary or moving in the same
direction as your vehicle.
It does not detect small vehicles
(bicycles, motorcycles),
pedestrians or animals, nor non-
reflective stationary objects.
The system is not triggered or is
interrupted if the driver:
-
accelerates strongly
-
or turns the steering wheel
suddenly (avoiding manoeuvre). In difficult weather conditions (very
heavy rain, snow
, fog, hail...),
braking distances increase, which
can reduce the ability of the system to
avoid a collision.
The driver must therefore remain
particularly vigilant.
Never leave accumulations of
snow or any object projecting
above the bonnet or in front of
the roof: this might fall into the field of
vision of the sensor and generate a
detection.

towing a trailer
good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine automatically limits its power.
In this case, the air conditioning is
automatically cut off to save engine
power.
tyres
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer
, observing the
recommended pressures. Chapter 7, "Levels" section.If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible. Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change
down early and brake gradually.
towbar
We recommend the use of genuine
P
eugeo T towbars and their wiring
harnesses, which have been tested
and approved from the design stage of
your vehicle, and that you entrust the
fitting of this equipment to a PEUGEOT
dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a
P
eugeo T dealer, it is imperative that
it is fitted using the electrical pre-
equipment installed at the rear of the
vehicle and in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
In accordance with the general
instructions a reminder of which has
been given above, we draw your
attention to the risk associated with
fitting a towbar or electrical accessory
not recommended by P
eugeo T.
Fitting such equipment could result in
the failure of your vehicle's electronic
system. Please obtain information from
the Manufacturer before fitting this type
of equipment.
Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate
speed.
ABS/DSC
The ABS or DSC systems only control
the vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.
Parking sensors
The rear parking sensors system does
not function while the vehicle is towing.

markings" section.

Checks
good practice
only use products recommended by
P eugeo T or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, P
eugeo T selects and offers
specific products.
Bleeding water from the Diesel
filter Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
In order to avoid damaging the
electrical units, high pressure
washing to clean the engine
compartment is strictly prohibited.
After washing the vehicle dampness,
or in winter, ice may form on the brake
discs and pads: braking efficiency may
be reduced. Make some light brake
applications to dry and de-ice the
brakes.
If this warning lamp comes
on, bleed the filter. Otherwise
bleed regularly each time the
engine oil is changed.
HDi engines use advanced
technology
. All work requires
special training, so should be
entrusted to a P
eugeo
T dealer.
Depending on country of sale. To drain the water, unscrew the bleed
screw located on the filter.
o
perate until all of the water no longer
flows in the transparent pipe, then
tighten the bleed screw.
