With a manual gearbox, the arrow may be
accompanied by the gear recommended.
The system adapts its gear shift
recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the
driver’s requirements (power, acceleration,
b r a k i n g ,e t c .) .
The system never suggests:
-
e
ngaging first gear,
-
enga
ging a lower gear,
-
enga
ging reverse.Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.).
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.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
- with a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) or vehicle stationary
with the PureTech 130
petrol and BlueHDi
115
and 120 Diesel versions, when you
place the gear lever in neutral and you
release the clutch pedal,
-
w
ith an automatic gearbox , vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or put the gear selector in N mode.
The time counter aggregates the STOP mode
activation periods during a trip. It resets itself to
zero every time the ignition is switched on with
the key or the " START/STOP" button.
For your convenience during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
Stop & Start does not affect the operation
of vehicle systems such as braking, power
steering, etc.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition with
the key or the "START/STOP" button.
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:

180° view
The 180° view facilitates the exit from of a
parking bay in forward gear, making it possible
to see the approach of vehicles, pedestrians
and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out
a complete manoeuvre.
It is made up of 3 areas: left A, centre B and
right C .
This view is available only from the view
selection menu.
Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with
parking: it detects a parking space then
operates the steering system to park in this
space.
It operates the steering while the driver
manages the accelerator, brakes, gears and
clutch (manual gearbox). During phases of
entry into and exit from a parking space, the
system provides visual and audible information
to the driver in order to make the manoeuvres
safe. It may be necessary to move for wards
and backwards more than once.
The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.
This manoeuvring assistance system
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their
vehicle ensuring that the space remains
clear throughout the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors may
not detect small obstacles located in their
blind spots.
The Park Assist system cannot work with
the engine off. The Park Assist system provides assistance for
the following manoeuvres:
B.
Exit from a parallel parking space.
A.
Entry into a parallel parking space.
