Temporary manual control of gear changes
You can temporarily take control of gear changes using the "+" and "-" steering mounted control paddles. The gear change instruction is acted on if the engine speed permits.This function allows you to anticipate certain situations, such as overtaking another vehicle or approaching a bend in the road.Following a few moments with no action on the control paddles, the gearbox returns to automatic operation.
Manual operation
AUTO disappears and the gears engaged are displayed successively
in the instrument panel.
F After starting the engine, select position M for sequential gear changing
The change from one gear to another takes place only if the conditions of vehicles speed and engine speed
permit; if not, the automatic operation laws are applied temporarily.
F Operate the "+" or "-" steering mounted control paddle.
It is not necessary to release the accelerator during gear changes.When braking or slowing down, the gearbox changes down automatically to allow the vehicle to accelerate in the correct gear.
On sharp acceleration, the gearbox will not change up unless the driver acts on the steering mounted paddles.Never select neutral N when drivingOnly engage reverse R with the vehicle stationary and your foot on the brake.

Stop & StartGoing into engine
STOP mode
If your vehicle has a manual gearbox, its speed must be below 12 mph (20 km/h) or stationary (depending on engine); the "ECO" indicator lamp comes on in the instrument panel and the engine goes into standby automatically when you place the gear lever in
neutral and you release the clutch pedal.
For your comfort, during parking manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear.Stop & Start does not affect the functionality of the vehicle, such as for example, braking, power steering...A slight delay between the vehicle stopping and the engine cutting out may be noticed.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time counter calculates the time spent in
STOP mode during a journey.It resets to zero every time the ignition is switched on.
Stop & Start time counter
The Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...). 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.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox and the vehicle is stationary, the "ECO" indicator lamp comes on and the engine goes into standby automatically when you press the brake pedal or place the gear selector in position N.
If your vehicle has an electronic gearbox and the vehicle's speed is below 5 mph (8 km/h), the "ECO" indicator lamp comes on and the engine goes into standby automatically when you press the brake pedal or place the gear selector in position N.
(minutes / seconds or hours / minutes)
Never refuel with the engine in STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the button.

Memorising the speed
setting
This memorisation is in addition to the display of Road Sign Assist.
The driver can choose to adapt the speed setting to the speed limit suggested, by pressing the memorisation button at the speed limiter controls, with the standard cruise control or the adaptive cruise control.This speed setting then replaces the previous speed setting for the speed limiter and/or adaptive cruise control.
For more information on the Speed limiter, Cruise control or
Adaptive cruise control, refer to the corresponding sections.
Steering mounted controls
1. Select speed limiter/cruise control mode.2. Memorise a speed setting.
Operating limits
The legislation on speed limits is specific to each country.The system does not take account of reduced speed limits in the following cases:- poor weather (rain, snow),- atmospheric pollution,- trailer, caravan,- driving with snow chains fitted,
- puncture repair using the temporary repair kit,- young drivers.
Operation of the system may be disrupted or it may not work at all in the following situations:- poor visibility (inadequate street lighting, falling snow, rain, fog),- windscreen area ahead of the camera dirty, misty, frosty, covered with snow, damaged or masked by a sticker,- fault with the camera,- obsolete or incorrect mapping,- hidden road signs (other vehicles, vegetation, snow),- speed limit signs that do not conform to the standard, are damaged or distorted.
Clean the area of the windscreen in front of the camera regularly.

Speed limiter ("LIMIT")
System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the driver.
The speed limiter cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to observe speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Once the programmed speed limit is reached, additional pressure on the accelerator pedal has no effect.
1. Select speed limiter mode.2. Lower the programmed speed.3. Raise the programmed speed.4. Speed limiter on / pause.5. If fitted to your vehicle, display the list of memorised speeds or memorise the speed suggested by the Road Sign Assist system.

This system, also called automatic emergency
braking, aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a frontal collision by your vehicle (between 3 and 87 mph (5 and 140 km/h)) where the driver fails to react.Using a radar and a camera, this system acts on the vehicle's braking system.
Autonomous emergency
braking
The driver can take back control of the vehicle at any time by sharply turning the steering wheel and/or pressing the accelerator pedal.
Operation of the system may be felt by slight vibration in the brake pedal.If the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2 seconds.If your vehicle has a manual gearbox, in the event of the automatic emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, the engine may stall.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox, in the event of the automatic emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, the vehicle will move off again; press the brake pedal.
If automatic emergency braking is not activated, you are alerted by the fixed display of this warning lamp accompanied by a message.
If the radar and the camera have confirmed the presence of a vehicle or a pedestrian, this warning lamp flashes when the system is operating.
Important: if operation of the automatic emergency braking is triggered, you should take back control of your vehicle and brake with the pedal to add to or finish the automatic braking.

"Standard view"
"180° view""Zoom view" (reconstructed)
The camera records the surroundings during a manoeuvre in order to create a reconstruction of the view from above the rear of the vehicle in its close surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be manoeuvred among the obstacles nearby.This view is available with AUTO view or by selecting of the view in the change view menu.
180° view makes it possible to reverse out of a parking space while being able to see the arrival of vehicles, pedestrians or cyclists.This view is not recommended for carrying out a complete manoeuvre.It is made up of the following:
The area to the rear of your vehicle is displayed in the screen.The blue outline represents the width of your vehicle (with mirrors): its orientation depends on the position of the steering wheel.The red line represents a distance of 30 cm from the rear bumper and the two blue lines, 1 m and 2 m respectively.
Rear views
Engage reverse gear to activate the camera, located on the rear tailgate or rear door.
The rear parking sensors also provide information on the vehicle's surroundings.Obstacles may appear further away than they are in reality.It is important to check the side views using the mirrors during the manoeuvre.
