F If this warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not pull a trailer before having driven at least
approximately 620


miles (1,000

kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height
of your vehicle.
For more information on Headlamp
adjustment , refer to the corresponding
section. Certain driving or manoeuvring aid
functions are automatically disabled if an
approved towing system is used.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has
a special code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised in order for
starting to be possible.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks the
engine management system a few minutes
after the ignition is switched off, and prevents
the engine being started by anyone who does
not have the key.
In the event of a fault, you are informed
by illumination of this warning lamp, an
audible signal and a message in the
screen.
In this case, your vehicle will not start; contact
a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.
Keep safely, away from your vehicle, the
label attached to the keys given to you
when you purchased your vehicle.

Never leave children unsuper vised inside
the vehicle with the engine running.
When carrying out maintenance with the
engine running, apply the parking brake
and select position P .
Automatic operation
F Select position D for automatic changing of
the six gears.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any inter vention on the part
of the driver. It continuously selects the most
suitable gear according to the style of driving,
the profile of the road and the load in the
vehicle.
For maximum acceleration without touching
the selector, press the accelerator fully down
(kick-down). The gearbox changes down
automatically or holds the gear selected until
the maximum engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically to provide effective engine
braking.
For better safety, the gearbox will not change
up if you release the accelerator sharply.
Never select position N while the vehicle is
moving.
Never select position P or R unless the vehicle
is completely stationary.

Operating fault
When the ignition is on, a message
appears in the instrument panel screen
to indicate a gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3
rd 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.
Do not exceed 62

mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop. 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 selector from position P
to another position when the battery is
flat.

Activation
F Press and hold the Sport button until
the ambience of the back-lighting in the
instrument panel changes.
The indicator lamp for the button comes on.
If the LED flashes, activation is not
possible (for example if Park Assist or
snow mode is selected) and so the back-
lighting returns to its normal mode.
If the flashing of the LED persists,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Gear shift indicator
(Depending on engine.)
This system reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
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 are for information
only. In fact, the road layout, the traffic density
and safety remain the deciding factors when
choosing the best gear. The driver therefore
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the indications issued by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
With an automatic gearbox, the system is
only active in manual mode. The information appears in the
instrument panel in the form of an
ascending or descending arrow and a
recommended gear.

This operation is perfectly normal.
Deactivation/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.
If the engine is in STOP mode, it restarts
immediately.

lever in position N and put your foot on the brake
pedal.
You must switch off the ignition, then start the
engine again.
The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V
b attery with a special specification and
technology.
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.
Before driving in a flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.

flooded roads, refer to the corresponding
section.
Memorising speeds
Touch screen
Linked to the speed limiter and programmable
cruise control only, this function allows speed
limits to be registered which will then be
suggested as settings for these two systems.
You can memorise several speed settings for
each system.
By default, some speed settings are already
memorised.
As a safety measure, the driver must
only modify the speed settings when
stationary.

Speed Limit recognition
and recommendation
This function is a driving aid that cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the driver’s
own vigilance nor compliance with the
highway code.
The actual signs always take priority over
the display by the system.
The signs must comply with the Vienna
Convention on road signs.
This system allows the maximum authorised
speed to be displayed in the instrument panel,
according to the speed limits in the country in
which you are driving, using: -

S
peed limit signs detected by the camera.
-
S
peed limit details from the navigation
system mapping.
You should update your navigation
mapping regularly in order to receive
accurate speed limit information from the
system.
The speed limit units (mph or km/h)
depend on the country you are driving in.
This should be taken into account in order
to obser ve the speed limit.
For the system to operate correctly when
you change country, the units for speed in
the instrument panel must be those for the
country you are driving in. The automatic reading of road signs is a
driving assistance system and does not
always display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over the display by the
system.
The system cannot in any circumstances
replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver.
The driver must observe the driving
regulations and must adapt the speed of
the vehicle to suit the weather and traffic.
The system may not display the speed
limit if it does not detect a speed limit sign
within a preset period.
The system is designed to detect signs
that conform to the Vienna Convention on
road signs.
To maintain correct operation of the
system: regularly clean the area in front of
the camera.
The internal sur face of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.

Specific speed limits, such as those for
heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the
instrument panel is updated as you pass

By default, the system is automatically
activated at every engine start.
Displays in the instrument panel
1.Detected speed limit indication.
or
2. Indication of the end of the speed limit. The system is active but is not detecting speed
limit information.
On detection of speed limit information, the
system displays the value.
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:
-
p
oor weather (rain, snow),
-
a

tmospheric pollution,
-
w

hen towing,
-

d
riving with a space-saver type spare wheel
or snow chains fitted,
-
p

uncture repair using the temporary repair
kit,
-
y

oung drivers, etc.
The following situations may interfere with
the operation of the system or prevent it from
working:
-
