Four wheel drive system
System which permits the selection of a transmission mode in relation to the driving conditions.three transmission modes are available and can be selected manually by the driver in accordance with his requirements.
You can change transmission mode when
stationary or while driving.
th

e transmission mode can be selected by
turning the control A .
Selecting the transmission
mode
4WD AUTO (position 1)
the vehicle operates with four wheel drive and
provides optimum traction for all levels of grip.
th

is is the vehicle's normal and regular
operating mode, the distribution of the torque
between the front and rear axles is controlled
automatically.
th

e distribution favours the front wheels,
the transfer of torque to the rear wheels is
managed electronically by the control unit
in relation to the level of grip, so providing
optimum road holding.
4WD LOCK (position 2)
the vehicle operates with four wheel drive in
this mode also.
It is recommended when grip is particularly
poor or difficult (sand, mud, slopes, ...).
2WD (position 3)
the vehicle operates with front two wheel drive.th is is suitable for use on a tarmac roads or
where the driver considers that there is no risk
of loss of grip (dry road).
Display in the instrument panel
the transmission mode is displayed in the
form of an intermittent display in the instrument
panel screen when the transmission mode is
selected.
th
e selection of this mode is
recommended when the level of grip
permits.
Driving

119
4008_en_Chap04_conduite_ed01-2016
As the engine torque is applied to all
four wheels, the condition of the tyres
has a considerable impact on the
performance of the vehicle.
en
sure that all four tyres are in good
condition.
Avoid driving the vehicle in sandy or
muddy areas or in other areas in which
the wheels could spin.
Spinning the wheels places the
transmission components under
pressure and could cause a serious
malfunction.
Do not drive the vehicle through deep
water.
Avoid driving over excessively uneven
terrain (risk of scraping under the body
or of grounding on crossing a bridge).
Operating faults
If the selected transmission mode display
flashes, the vehicle switches automatically to
front "2WD" transmission mode.
It is then no longer possible to select the
transmission mode using the control A .
If the message "SLOW DOWN" is displayed on
the instrument panel, let the transmission cool
down then wait for the display to clear before
setting off again.
If "4WD" and "LOCK" are displayed alternately
and if "S
eR

VIC
e
R
eQuI
R
eD
" is displayed in
the instrument panel, the system has failed and
the safety system has been activated.
Contact a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay. Have your vehicle towed on a
flatbed.
th

e vehicle must not be towed with the
front or rear wheels on the ground even
if it is in front "2WD" (2 wheel drive)
mode.If the replacement of a tyre is
necessary on 4-wheel drive versions,
it is recommended that all four tyres be
replaced at the same time, ensuring
that the same make, model and size is
used on all wheels.
th

is is because using tyres of different
sizes, structure or rate of wear could
damage transmission components.
