Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear
is not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions).
Stopping the vehicle
Malfunction
When the ignition is on, the lighting
of this warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message
in the screen, indicates a gearbox
fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel a
substantial jolt when changing from P to R and
from N to R. This will not cause any damage to
the gearbox. There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:
-

i
f you press the accelerator and brake
pedals at the same time,
-
i
f you force the movement of the
selector from position P to another
position when the battery is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when at
a prolonged standstill with the engine
running (traffic jam, etc.), put the
selector in the N position and apply the
parking brake.
D disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succession in
the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the
selected gear flashes for a few seconds, then
the actual gear engaged is displayed.
It is possible to change from position D
(automatic) to position M (manual) at any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox engages first gear
automatically.
The sport and snow programmes are
inactive in manual operation.
Before switching off the engine, you can engage
position P or N to place the gearbox in neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to keep
the vehicle stationary.
If the selector is not in position P , when the
driver's door is opened or approximately
45
seconds after the ignition is switched
off, a warning message appears on the
screen.
F

R
eturn the selector to position P ; the
message disappears.
When driving on flooded roads or when
crossing a ford, proceed at walking pace. Do not exceed around 60
mph (100 km/h), local
speed restrictions permitting.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.

Procedure
Before topping up, ensure that the vehicle is
parked on a flat and level sur face.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the
temperature of the vehicle is above -11°C.
Otherwise the AdBlue
® may be frozen and
so cannot be poured into its tank. Park your
vehicle in a warmer area for a few hours to
allow the top-up to be carried out.

et a bottle or container of AdBlue
®. After
first checking the use-by date, carefully
read the instructions on use on the label
before pouring the contents of the bottle into
your vehicle's AdBlue
® tank.
Important: if your vehicle's AdBlue
® tank is
c
ompletely empty – which is confirmed by
the alert displays and the impossibility of
starting the engine – you must add at least
3.8

litres (so two 1.89

litre bottles).
F

A

fter emptying the bottle or container, wipe
away any spillage around the tank filler
using a damp cloth. If any additive is spilt or splashed, wash
immediately with cold water or wipe with a
damp cloth.
If the additive has crystallised, clean it off
using a sponge and hot water.

provided for this purpose or take them
to your dealer.
Important: if topping up after running
out of AdBlue , you must wait for
approximately 5 minutes before switching
the ignition back on, without opening
the driver's door, unlocking the vehicle
or inser ting the key into the ignition
switch . Switch on the ignition, then, after
10 seconds, start the engine.

Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.The snow chains must be fitted only to the
front wheels. They must never be fitted to
"space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
chains and the maximum running speed
authorised.
Installation tips
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face on the side
of the road.
F

A
pply the parking brake and, if necessary,
put wheel chocks against the wheels to
prevent your vehicle from sliding.
F

F
it the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
F

M
ove off gently and drive for a few
seconds, without exceeding around 30 mph
(50


km/h).
F

S
top your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the
road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with
aluminium alloy wheels, check that no part
of the chain or its fixings is in contact with
the wheel rim. Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size.
185/65 R15 9
mm
195/55 R16
For more information on snow chains, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as air conditioning,
heated rear screen, etc.
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.
Energy economy mode
System which manages the duration of use of
certain functions to conser ve a sufficient level
of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use
functions such as the audio and telematics
system, windscreen wipers, dipped beam
headlamps,
courtesy lamps, etc. for a
maximum combined duration of about forty
minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once this period has elapsed, a message
appears in the screen indicating that the
vehicle has switched to economy mode and the
active functions are put on standby.
If a telephone call is in progress at this time,
the connection via the audio system's hands-
free function will be maintained for around
10


minutes.
Exiting the mode
These functions are reactivated automatically
next time the vehicle is driven.
F
T
o restore these functions immediately,
start the engine and let it run for at least five
minutes. A flat battery prevents the engine from
starting (refer to the corresponding
section).

Practical information

136
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox,
never try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.
Access to the battery Starting using another
battery
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a backup battery
(external or from another vehicle) and jump
leads or a battery booster.
Never try to start the engine by connecting
a battery charger.
Never use a 24
V or higher battery
b o o s t e r.
Check beforehand that the backup
battery has a nominal voltage of 12
V and
a capacity at least equal to that of the
discharged battery.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off all the electrical consumers
on both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, etc.).
Make sure that the jump leads are not
close to moving parts of the engine (fan,
belts, etc.).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal while
the engine is running. F

S
tart the engine of the vehicle with the
good battery and leave it running for a few
minutes.
F

O
