Hill start assist
System that holds your vehicle for around
2 seconds, the time it takes to move your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
The hill start assist function cannot be
deactivated. However, use of the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts
its function. Hill start assist is only available when:
-

y
our foot on the brake pedal fully
immobilises the vehicle,
-

c
ertain slope conditions are met,
-

t
he driver's door is closed.Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily by hill start assist.
If you need to leave the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the parking brake
manually. Then ensure that the parking
brake warning lamp is on fixed in the
instrument panel.

Stop & Start
The 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 wish to move off again. Restarting
occurs instantaneously, 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.
STOP mode
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby.

seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal. A time counter calculates the
time spent in STOP mode during
a
journey. It is reset to zero every
time the ignition is switched on
using the key.
For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.

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 then restarts.
The Stop & Start system is reactivated
automatically every time the ignition is switched
on.Opening the bonnet Driving on flooded roads
Before driving through a
flooded road, 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.
Malfunction
The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V
b attery 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.

T

o deactivate or reactivate the system,
press this button.
The indicator lamp is lit when the system is
deactivated.
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to avoid
the risk of injury related to an automatic
change to START mode.
Under-inflation detection
This system automatically monitors the tyre
pressure while driving.
The system monitors the pressure in all four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised after ever y tyre
pressure adjustment or wheel change .
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a
drop in the pressure of one or more
tyres.
In the event of a

fault with the system, the ECO
OFF switch warning lamp flashes, then comes
on fixed.
Have it checked by a

PEUGEOT dealer or
a


qualified workshop.
If a

fault occurs in STOP mode, the vehicle
may stall. All of the instrument panel warning
lamps come on. It is then necessary to switch
the ignition off and to restart the engine using

For entry into a parallel parking space, the
system does not detect spaces which are
clearly much smaller or larger than the
size of the vehicle.
The "Parking sensors" function activates
automatically during the manoeuvres, so it
is possible that a


warning lamp illuminates
on the screen, accompanied by an audible
signal, without affecting the parking.
Changing tyre sizes (out-size tyres, winter
tyres, etc.) can inter fere with the correct
operation of the parking sensors system.
When the Park Assist is active, it prevents
Stop & Start going into STOP mode.
In STOP mode, activating Park Assist
restarts the engine.
Entering a parallel parking
space
F Once you have detected an available space,
limit the speed of the vehicle to 12 mph
(20


km/h).
The system provides assistance in entering and
exiting a


parking space when parallel parking.

fuel remains in the tank.
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running
out.
For more information on Running out of fuel
(Diesel) , refer to the corresponding section.
Refilling
A sticker on the inner face of the filler flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine type. The key cannot be removed from the lock
until the filler cap is refitted.
Opening the filler cap may create a
noise
caused by an inrush of air. This vacuum is
entirely normal, resulting from the sealing
of the fuel system.
To refuel in complete safety:
F
Y
ou must switch off the engine
.

Recommendations
Distribute the load evenly, making sure not
to overload one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as
close as possible to the roof.
Secure the load firmly.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds
and its stability may be affected.
On a long journey, check the security of
the load at every stop.
Remove the roof bars when they are not
in use.
Bonnet
The location of the interior bonnet release
lever prevents opening of the bonnet when
the left-hand front door is shut. When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the stay with
care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might be
caught by the fan blades.
Because of the presence of electrical
equipment under the bonnet, it is
recommended that exposure to water
(rain, washing, etc.) be limited.
