This system is designed to operate effectively
in all seasons, with the windows and the
electric fabric roof closed.
For your convenience the settings are retained
between vehicle starts.
When the engine is cold, the air flow will only
reach its optimum level gradually to prevent too
much cold air being distributed.

By pressing button 6 " AUTO" again, you can
choose the following modes in succession:
Enables optimum operation of the
system.
Offers thermal comfort while limiting

Gives priority to dynamic air
distribution mainly through the side
vents.
Manual control
If you want, you can make a different choice
f rom that offered by the system by changing
a
setting. The other functions will still be
managed automatically.
Temperature adjustment

ress button 1 down to decrease the value
or up to increase it.
A setting of around 21
provides optimum
comfort. Nonetheless, depending on your
needs, a setting between 18
and 24 is typical.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior is very
cold or very warm, there is no need to change
the value displayed in order to obtain the
comfort required. The system automatically
corrects the temperature difference as quickly
as possible.
For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible
to exceed the lowest value of 14

Electronic stability control
(ESC)
The ESC programme incorporates the following
systems:
-
a
nti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contribute towards improved control on
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
ABS prevents the wheels from locking during
emergency braking.
EBFD ensures total management of the braking
pressure, wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system permits the
optimum braking pressure to be reached
more quickly, therefore reducing the stopping
distance.
It triggers according to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by
a
reduction in the resistance of the pedal and
an increase in the effectiveness of the braking.
Traction control (TRC)
This system optimises traction in order to limit
wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
-
em
ergency braking assistance (EBA),
-
t
raction control (TRC),
- d
ynamic stability control (DSC).
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
f ollowed by the vehicle and that required by the
driver, this system monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
Operation
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBD)
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal, it indicates an ABS system
malfunction that could cause control
of the vehicle to be lost during
braking.
Drive carefully at a
moderate speed and
contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Safety

If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal,
it indicates an electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD) system
malfunction that could cause control
of the vehicle to be lost during
braking.
Yo u must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
When operating under normal conditions,
the ABS may cause the brake pedal to
vibrate slightly.
In emergency braking, press the brake
pedal hard and maintain this pressure.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
and traction control (TRC)
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
every time the vehicle is started. Activation of these systems
is signalled by flashing of this
indicator in the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible signal
for the DSC system.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (moving a vehicle that
i s bogged down in mud, stuck in snow, on loose
soil, …), it may prove useful to deactivate the
DSC and TRC systems, so that the wheels can
move freely and regain grip.
It is recommended that the systems are
reactivated as soon as possible however.
F
P
ress the button briefly.
Deactivating TRC alone

TRC system no longer acts on the
operation of the engine. Deactivation of the TRC and DSC systems

ith the vehicle stopped
, press the button
for more than 3 seconds.
These warning lamps come on: the
TRC and DSC systems no longer act

Reactivation
The TRC and DSC systems reactivate
automatically each time the engine is started.
F
P
ress the button again to
reactivate them manually.
When only the TRC system has been
deactivated, it reactivates as soon as the speed
of the vehicle increases.
If the TRC and DSC systems have both
been deactivated, they do not reactivate by
themselves, even if the speed of the vehicle
increases.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal,
this indicates a fault with the system.
As soon as they detect a
problem of grip or
trajectory, these systems act on the operation
of the engine and brakes.

Driving advice
Observe driving regulations and remain vigilant
whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your
hands on the wheel so that you are ready to
react at any time to any eventuality.
As a safety measure, the driver should only
carry out any operations that require close
attention when the vehicle is stationary.
On a
long journey, taking a break every two
hours is strongly recommended.
In difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate
the need to brake and increase the distance
from other vehicles.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. There is a
risk of poisoning and
death!
In very severe wintry conditions
(temperatures below -23°C), to guarantee
correct operation and the longevity of
the mechanical elements of your vehicle,
engine and gearbox, the engine must be
left running for 4
minutes before driving.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied
– Risk of overheating and damage to the
braking system!
As the exhaust system of your vehicle
is very hot, even several minutes after
switching off the engine, never park or run
the engine on inflammable sur faces (dry
grass, fallen leaves, etc.) – Risk of fire!
Never leave a vehicle unsuper vised with
the engine running. If you have to leave
your vehicle with the engine running, apply
the parking brake and put the gearbox into
neutral or position N or P , depending on
the type of gearbox.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded
roads, as this could cause serious damage
to the engine or gearbox, as well as to the
electrical systems of your vehicle. If you are obliged to drive on a
flooded road:
-
c
heck that the depth of water does not
exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that
might be generated by other users,
-
d
eactivate the Stop & Start function,
-
d
rive as slowly as possible without stalling.
In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h),
-
d
o not stop and do not switch off the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety
conditions allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
