Special aspects of automatic
mode
The gearbox selects the gear that offers
optimum per formance, taking account of the
exterior temperature, the profile of the road, the
load on the vehicle and the style of driving.
For maximum acceleration without touching
the selector, press the accelerator fully down
(kick-down). The gearbox changes down
automatically or holds the gear selected until
Special aspects of manual mode
The change from one gear to another takes
place only if the road speed and engine speed
permit.
If the engine speed is too high or too low, the
gear selected flashes for a few seconds, then
the gear actually engaged is displayed.
Moving off
the maximum engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically to provide effective engine
braking.
The steering mounted controls allow the driver
to temporarily select a gear, if the road and

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,
-

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:

Deactivation / Reactivation
In certain circumstances, such as the need
to maintain the temperature in the passenger
compartment, it may be useful to deactivate the
Stop & Start system.
The system can be deactivated at any time,
once the ignition is switched on.
If the engine is in STOP mode, it restarts
immediately.
The Stop & Start system is reactivated
automatically every time the ignition is switched
on.
With the button on the
dashboardWith the button on the touch
screen
Activation and deactivation of the
system is done in the Vehicle /
Driving
menu of the touch screen.
Select the " Driving functions " then the
" Stop & Star t " tab.
A new selection reactivates the system.
The indicator lamp in the instrument panel goes
off, accompanied by the display of a message. Opening the bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid any risk of injury resulting from an
automatic change to START mode.
Driving on flooded roads
Before driving in a flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving advice
,
particularly on flooded roads, refer to the
corresponding section.

Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the
system, this warning lamp
flashes for a few moments in the
instrument panel, then remains on,
accompanied by the display of a
message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If a fault occurs in STOP mode, the engine may
stall.
All of the instrument panel warning lamps come on.
It is then necessary to switch off the ignition and
start the engine again with the key or the
"START/STOP" button.
The Stop & Start system requires a
12 V battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work on this type of battery must be
carried out only by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
For more information on the 12
V batter y,
refer to the corresponding section.
Under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the wheel
speed sensors with reference values, which
must be reinitialised ever y time the tyre
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed .
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
The under-inflation detection system does
not replace the need for vigilance on the
part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres worsens
road-holding, lengthens braking distances,
causes premature wear of the tyres,
particularly in adverse conditions (heavy
loads, high speeds, long journeys). Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section.
Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when the tyres
are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1
hour or
after a journey of less than 6
miles (10 km)
at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3
bar to the pressures
shown on the label.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
