Hill start assist
This system keeps your vehicle briefly
stationary (for approximately 2 seconds) when
making a hill start, while you transfer your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
This system (also called HHC – Hill Hold
Control), integrated with the dynamic stability
control system, is activated in the following
conditions:
-
t
he vehicle must be stationary, engine
running, foot on the brake,
-
t
he gradient of the road must be steeper
than 5%,
-
u
phill, the gearbox must be in neutral or in a
gear other than reverse,
-
do
wnhill, 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,
it is possible to perceive the typical noise
of mechanical brake release signalling the
imminent movement of the vehicle. Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held in the hill start assist phase.
If you need to get out of the vehicle with
the engine running, apply the parking
brake manually then ensure that the
parking brake warning lamp is on.
Hill start assist is deactivated in the following
situations:
-
w
hen the clutch pedal is released,
-
w
hen the parking brake is applied,
-
w
hen the engine is switched off,
-
i
f the engine stalls.
Operating fault
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 it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or by a qualified
workshop.

Dashboard button
F Hold this button down.
Reinitialisation is confirmed by a high-pitched
audible signal.
A low-pitched audible signal indicates that
the reinitialisation operation has not been
successful.
The new pressure parameters saved are
treated as reference values by the system.The under-inflation alert can only be relied
on if the reinitialisation of the system has
been done with the pressures in the four
tyres correctly adjusted.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
Operating fault
After doing anything to the system, the
pressures of the four tyres must be
checked and the system reinitialised.
The flashing and then constant illumination of
the under-inflation warning lamp accompanied
by illumination of the Ser vice warning lamp
indicates a fault in the system.
In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
tyres is no longer provided.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
"LIMIT" speed limiter
System preventing the vehicle
from exceeding the speed setting
programmed by the driver. 1.
Speed limiter mode Selection/Off.
2. Decreases the set value.
3. Increases the set value.
4. Speed limiter On/Pause.
The speed setting is selected with the engine
running, regardless of being stationary or
in motion. The minimum speed that can be
programmed is at least 19 mph (30 km/h).
The vehicle responds to the driver's foot
pressure on the accelerator until resistance is
felt in the pedal, which signifies that the vehicle
has reached the programmed speed.
However, pressing the pedal beyond this point
of resistance to the floor permits exceeding
of the programmed speed. To resume use of
the limiter, simply reduce the pressure on the
accelerator pedal gradually and return to a
speed below the programmed speed.
Setting and operation of the system can be
done with the engine running, regardless of
being stationary or in motion.

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 warned by the display of a
message.
Your vehicle's brake lamps come on to warn
other road users.The collision can be avoided if the speed
difference between your vehicle and
the one ahead is not more than 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 can 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.
Unless the driver presses the clutch
quickly enough during automatic braking,
triggering of the system may cause the
engine to stall. 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 ser vice: it no
longer operates.
You must go to a PEUGEOT 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.
This system will not trigger or will be interrupted
if the driver:
-
a
ccelerates hard
-
o
r turns the steering wheel sharply
(avoidance manoeuvre). When weather conditions are difficult
(extremely heavy rain, snow, fog, hail,
etc.), braking distances increase, which
may reduce the system’s ability to avoid a
collision.
The driver must therefore remain
particularly cautious.
Never let snow build up on the bonnet
or any object beyond the bonnet or the
front of the roof: this could enter the
field of vision of the sensor and obstruct
detection.Deactivation
The system is deactivated in the vehicle
configuration menu, accessible with the ignition
on.
Its status is stored when the ignition is switched off.
When the system is deactivated, a
message is displayed every time the
ignition is switched on, to warn you.

Fuel
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached
this warning lamp comes on.
When it first comes on, around 8
litres remain
in the tank, according to your driving style and
your engine.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out.
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel,
as this could damage the emission control and
injection systems.
Filling
The fuel tank must be filled with the engine
off. When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle. This could cause
malfunctions.
The capacity of the tank is approximately
60
litres (53 litres for BlueHDi Diesel versions).

fter filling the fuel tank, lock the cap and
close the flap.
When refilling, a mechanical
system prevents opening of
the left side door. Ensure
that nobody attempts to slide
open this door while the fuel
flap is open.
After closing the flap, the
sliding side door can become
blocked. Push the door to
close it and then open it.
When refilling, ensure that
nobody attempts to open the
sliding side door while the
fuel filler flap is open.

A label inside the fuel filler flap reminds you of
the type of fuel to use.
At least 5
litres of fuel must be added in order
to be registered by the fuel gauge.
Opening the filler cap may create a noise
caused by an inrush of air. This is entirely
normal and results from the sealing of the fuel
system.

Compatibility of fuels
Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with biofuels
that conform to current and future European
standards and which can be obtained from
filling stations:Petrol that meets standard EN228,
mixed with a biofuel that meets
standard EN15376.
Fuel used for Diesel
engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with
biofuels that conform to current and future
European standards and which can be
obtained from filling stations: Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN590
mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing up to 7% Fatty Acid
Methyl Ester).
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN16734 mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing up to 10% Fatty Acid
Methyl Ester).
Paraffinic Diesel fuel that meets
standard EN15940 mixed with
a biofuel that meets standard
EN14214 (possibly containing up to
7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
B20 or B30 fuel meeting standard
EN16709 can be used in your
Diesel engine. However, this use,
even occasional, requires strict
application of the special ser vicing
conditions referred to as "Arduous
conditions".
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. The use of any other type of (bio) fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel, etc.) is strictly prohibited
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel
syste m).
The only Diesel additives authorised for
use are those that meet the B715000
standard.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0°C (+32°F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel
fuels could result in an abnormal operation
of the fuel supply circuit. To avoid this, we
recommend using winter-type Diesel fuel and
keeping the fuel tank more than 50% full.
If, despite this, at temperatures below -15°C
(+5°F) the engine has problems starting,
just leave the vehicle in a garage or heated
workshop for a little while.
The only petrol additives authorised for
use are those that meet the B715001
standard.
