2018 Peugeot 301 reverse light

88
Gear shift indicator
System which reduces fuel consumption by
advising the driver when to change up.With an automatic gearbox, the system is
only active in manual mode.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one (or more) gear(s). You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
Gear shift recommendations should not be
considered obligatory. The configuration of the
road, the amount of traffic and safety remain
determining factors when choosing the best
gear. The driver thus remains responsible
for deciding whether to follow or ignore the
system's instructions.
This function cannot be deactivated.
Example:
-

Y
ou are in third gear.
-

Y
ou press the accelerator pedal. -

T
he system may suggest that you engage a
higher gear.
The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow. With a manual gearbox, the arrow may be
accompanied by the gear recommended.
The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and driver
actions (power demand, acceleration,
b r a k i n g , e t c .) .
The system never suggests:
-
e

ngaging first gear,
-
enga

ging reverse gear,
-

d
own shifting.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
t emporarily 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.
The Stop & Start requires the use of a
12
V battery of special specification and
technology. All work on this type of battery
must only be carried out by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. For more
information on the 12
V batter y, refer to
the corresponding section.

Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
For your convenience during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
The Stop & Start does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering, etc.
A slight delay between the vehicle
stopping and the engine cutting out may
be noticed.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition with
the button.
With a manual gearbox, when vehicle
speed is below 12 mph (20 km/h) or
the vehicle is stationary (depending
on engine), the Stop & Start warning
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.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not activated when:
- T he driver's door is open.
-

T
he driver's seat belt is not fastened.
-

T
he engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment.
-
D

emisting/defrosting is active.
-

C
ertain special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
exterior temperature, etc.) make it
necessary to ensure control of a system or
the vehicle.
The Stop & Start warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds, then goes

This operation is perfectly normal.
Going into engine START mode
With a manual gearbox , the Stop
& Start warning lamp goes off on
the instrument panel and the engine
restarts automatically when you
press the clutch pedal fully down to
t h e f l o o r.
Special cases: START mode
activated automatically
As a safety measure or to maintain comfort
levels in the vehicle, START mode is activated
automatically when:
-
Y

ou open the driver's door.
-
Y

ou unfasten the driver's seat belt.
-

T
he speed of the vehicle exceeds 2 mph
(3
km/h) with an electronic gearbox.
-

C
ertain special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
exterior temperature, etc.) make it
necessary to ensure control of a system or
the vehicle.
The Stop & Start warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds, then goes

This operation is perfectly normal.
Deactivation/Manual
reactivation
In certain cases, such as the need to maintain
a comfortable 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.

llow the engine to run for at least
30
minutes, by driving or with the vehicle
stationary, so that the battery reaches an

Some functions, including Stop & Start,
are not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged.
Charging the battery using
a battery charger
For optimum ser vice life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances it may be necessary to
charge the battery:
-

I
f you use your vehicle essentially for short
journeys.
-

I
f the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop. If you plan to charge your vehicle's battery
yourself, use only a charger compatible
with lead-acid batteries of a nominal
voltage of 12
V.
Follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
