Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
t emperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F

T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towable load on an incline
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a
check on the coolant
temperature.
F

I
f 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 620
miles (1,000 kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o 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
beam height adjustment , refer to the
corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal if a
genuine PEUGEOT
towbar is used.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain an electronic immobiliser
device.
This device locks the engine supply system.
It activates automatically when the key is
removed from the ignition.
This warning lamp goes off after the
key has been recognised, the ignition is
switched on and the engine can be started.
If the key is not recognised, the engine
cannot be started. Use another key
and have the faulty key checked by
a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Note the number of the keys carefully;
in case of loss, inter vention by the
PEUGEOT dealer will be more efficient
and quicker if you present this number and
the confidential card.
When the ignition switch is turned on, a
dialogue is set up between the key and the
electronic immobiliser.
Do not make any modifications to the
electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even when it
is in your pocket, may result in involuntary
unlocking of the doors.
The simultaneous use of other high
frequency equipment (mobile telephones,
domestic alarms, etc.), may inter fere
with the operation of the remote control
temporarily.
The remote control does not operate
while the key is in the ignition, even if the
ignition is off, except for reinitialisation.

In low temperatures
In mountainous and/or cold areas, it is
advisable to use a "winter" type fuel suited
to low or minus temperatures.
Battery standby system
If the vehicle is not to be used for a prolonged
p eriod, such as for winter storage, for example,
it is strongly recommended that the battery
be placed on standby in order to protect it and
optimise its ser vice life.
When the battery is on standby, access to
the vehicle is only possible by unlocking
the vehicle using the key in the lock barrel
in the driver's door.
After the battery is switched off, the
information (time, date, radio stations,
etc.) is stored.
To take the battery out of standby:
F

T
urn the key to the MAR position.
F

S
tart the engine normally (AV V position).
To place the battery on standby:
F

S
witch off the engine ( STOP position). F

P
ress the red button, then turn the key to
the B AT T position.
The battery goes into standby about 7 minutes
later.
This time is necessary to:
-

A
llow the user to get out of the vehicle and
lock the doors with the remote control.
-

E
nsure that all of the vehicle's electrical
systems are deactivated.
Parking brake
Applying
F Pull the parking brake lever up to immobilise your vehicle.
F

C
heck that the parking brake is applied
firmly before leaving the vehicle.
There is no advantage in engaging a
gear after
parking the vehicle, particularly if the vehicle is
loaded.
When parking on a
slope, turn your
wheels towards the kerb and pull the
parking brake lever up.
In the exceptional case of use of the
parking brake when the vehicle is moving,
apply the brake by pulling gently to avoid
locking the rear wheels (risk of skidding).

Stop & Start
The Stop & Start 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.
Restart is instantaneous, quick and silent.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions and offers the comfort of complete
silence when stationary.
Going into engine STOP
mode
With the vehicle stationary, put the gear lever
into neutral, then release the clutch pedal.This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby.
Automatic stopping of the engine is only
possible after the vehicle has exceeded
a
speed of about 6 mph (10 km/h), to avoid
repeated stopping of the engine when
driving slowly. Never leave your vehicle before turning off
the ignition with the key.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
using the key.
Special cases: STOP mode
not available
STOP mode is not triggered when:
-
t he system is initialising,
-

t
he driver's door is open,
-

t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-

t
he air conditioning is on,
-

t
he rear screen demisting is on,
-

t
he windscreen wipers are on fast wipe,
-

r
everse gear is engaged for a parking
manoeuvre,
-
s

ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, particle filter
regeneration, braking assistance, exterior
temperature, etc.) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a
system.-

d
uring intensive use of Stop & Start, it
may be deactivated to conser ve starting
ability; go to a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
function reactivated.
This indicator lamp in the instrument
panel flashes for a few seconds,
then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Going into engine START
mode
With the vehicle in gear, automatic engine
restarting is only allowed by fully depressing
the clutch pedal.
This indicator lamp goes off and the
engine restarts.
If the driver takes no action on the vehicle for
3
minutes after an automatic restart in START
mode, the system stops the engine definitively.
The engine can then only be restarted using
t h e key.

The START mode may be triggered
automatically in the following circumstances:
-
t
he vehicle is free-wheeling on a gradient,
-

t
he windscreen wipers are on fast wipe,
-

t
he air conditioning is on,
-

t
he engine has been stopped for around
3
minutes with Stop & Start,
-
s

is needed to control a
system or the vehicle.
In this case, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by this indicator lamp,
which flashes for a
few seconds,
then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal. While in STOP mode with a
manual
gearbox, if a gear is engaged without fully
depressing the clutch pedal, restarting
may not take place.
An indicator lamp and/or message is
displayed in the instrument panel asking
you to fully depress the clutch pedal to
allow restarting.
With the engine stopped in STOP
mode, if the driver unfastens their
seat belt and opens a
front door, the
engine can only be restarted using
the ignition key. There is an audible
signal, accompanied by flashing of
this indicator lamp, and the display
of a
message.
Deactivation
If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.
It is necessary to deactivate the
Stop & Start system if you want to
allow continuous operation of the air
conditioning.
The button indicator lamp remains on.
F

Operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal pressed,
from the time you release the brake pedal,
without using the parking brake, you have
approximately 2 seconds to move off before the
vehicle starts to roll back.
During the moving off phase, the function is
deactivated automatically, gradually releasing
the braking pressure. During this phase,
it is possible to perceive the typical noise
of mechanical brake release signalling the
imminent movement of the vehicle. Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily by hill start assist.
If you need to get out of the vehicle with
the engine running, apply the parking
brake manually then ensure that the
parking brake indicator lamp is on.
Hill start assist is deactivated in the following
situations:
-
w
hen the clutch pedal is released,
-
w
hen the parking brake is applied,
-
w
hen the engine is switched off,
-
i
f the engine stalls.

Traffic sign recognition
This system is a driving aid that uses a camera
l ocated at the top of the windscreen.
The camera detects the following types of signs
and displays the corresponding information in
the instrument panel:
-
sp

eed limits,
-

n
o overtaking,
-

e
nd of the above-mentioned limits/
restrictions.
The system detects the signs on the left and on
the right, low-mounted and high-mounted, as
well as overlapping signs.
The system detects only round signs.
