To reduce fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffic jam, etc.), position
the selector on N and apply the parking
brake.
Gear efficiency 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 gears. You can
follow this indication without engaging the
intermediate gears.
Gear shift recommendations must not be
considered as compulsory. 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 operation.
The information appears in the
instrument panel, in the form of an
ascending or descending arrow and
the recommended gear.
The system adapts its gear shift
recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the
driver’s requirements (power, acceleration,
braking, etc.).
The system never suggests:
-
e
ngaging first gear,
-
enga
ging reverse.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
t emporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in 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.
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.
When the vehicle speed is below 2 mph
( 3 km/h) or the vehicle is stationary
(depending on engine), this indicator lamp
comes on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby automatically:
- With a manual gearbox , when you put the
gearbox into neutral and release the clutch
pedal.
-

When the cruise control is paused, it can
only be reactivated when all of the safety
conditions are met again. The message
"Activation not possible, conditions
unsuitable" is displayed while reactivation
is not possible.
Reactivating the function

To reactivate the function, the driver must
accelerate to reach at least 19 mph (30 km/h),
then press one of the buttons 2 , 3 or 4.
With automatic gearbox
Following braking of the vehicle bringing it to
a complete stop, the system holds the vehicle
stationary; the cruise control is paused.
The driver should press the accelerator pedal
to move off, then reactivate the system above
19
mph (30 km/h) by pressing one of the
buttons 2 , 3 or 4.
If the driver takes no action following this
immobilisation, the automatic electronic parking
brake is applied automatically after a while
(approximately 5
minutes).
As a safety measure, wait until the current
speed approaches the speed setting to
reactivate the function by pressing button 4 .
Modification of the speed

The system is not intended for the
following situations:
-
i
f the front end of the vehicle has
been modified (addition of long-range
headlamps, painting of the front
bumper),
-
d
riving on a racing circuit,
-
r
unning on a rolling road,
-
u
se of snow chains, non-slip covers or
studded tyres.
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may inter fere with the
operation of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is secured
c o r r e c t l y,
-
d
o not place one mat on top of another.
The following situations may interfere with
the operation of the system or prevent it
from working:
-
d
riving on a winding road,
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate street
lighting, falling snow, heavy rain, dense
fog, etc.),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp
road, leaving a tunnel, alternating
shade and light, etc.),
-
c
amera obstructed (mud, frost, snow,
condensation, etc.).
In these situations, detection performance
may be reduced.Malfunction
If the cruise control
malfunctions, dashes are
displayed instead of the
cruise control speed setting.
If this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an alert
message and an audible
signal, this confirms a
malfunction.
The adaptive cruise control deactivates
automatically if the use of a "space-saver"
type spare wheel is detected or if there is
a malfunction on the lateral brake lamps or
trailer brake lamps (for approved trailers).
The cruise control operates by day and
night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
However, it is strongly recommended that
you always keep a safe distance from
vehicles ahead, according to the driving
conditions, the weather and the road
sur face.
Use the cruise control only where the
driving conditions allow running at a
constant speed and keeping an adequate
safety distance.
Do not activate the cruise control in urban
areas where pedestrians are likely to
cross the road, in heavy traffic (except for
versions with EAT8 gearbox), on winding
or steep roads, on slippery or flooded
roads, when there is snowfall, if the
windscreen is damaged or when the brake
lamps have failed.
In certain circumstances, it may not
be possible for the speed setting to be
maintained or even attained: loaded
vehicle, ascending a steep hill, etc.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Memorising speeds
Linked to the speed limiter and programmable
cruise control, 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.

Active Safety Brake
with Distance Alert and
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
This system allows:
- t he driver to be warned that their vehicle is
at risk of collision with the vehicle in front,
-
a c
ollision to be prevented, or its severity to
be limited, by reducing the vehicle’s speed.
This system is a driving aid that includes three
functions:
-
D
istance Alert (alert if there is a risk of
collision),
-
I
ntelligent emergency braking assistance,
-
A
ctive Safety Brake (automatic emergency
b r ak ing).
The vehicle has a camera located at the top of
the windscreen.
By default, some speed settings are already
memorised.
This system is designed to assist the
driver and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to
continuously monitor the state of the
traffic, observing the driving regulations.
This system does not replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
As soon as the system detects a potential
obstacle, it prepares the braking circuit in
case automatic braking is needed. This
may cause a slight noise and a slight
sensation of deceleration.
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically
activated at every engine start.
This system can be deactivated or
activated via the vehicle settings
menu.
With this button, you can select a memorised
speed setting to use with the speed limiter or
the programmable cruise control. Deactivation of the system is signalled
by the illumination of this indicator
lamp, accompanied by the display of a
message.
Driving
152
Where the speed of your vehicle is too
high approaching another vehicle, the first
level of alert may not be displayed: the
level 2 alert may be displayed directly.
Important: the level 1 alert is never
displayed for a stationary obstacle or
when the " Close" trigger threshold has
been selected.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid
a collision, this system will supplement the
braking, within the limits of the laws of physics.
This assistance will only be provided if you
press the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake
Operation
The system operates under the following
conditions:
-
T
he vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph
(60
km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, inter venes following the alerts if the
driver does not react quickly enough and does
not operate the vehicle's brakes.
It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a
frontal collision by your vehicle where the driver
fails to react.
Level 2 (red)
: visual and audible
alert, warning you that a collision is
imminent.
The message " Brake!" is displayed.
Level 3 : finally, in some cases, a
haptic alert in the form of micro-
braking may be given to confirm the
risk of collision. If the camera has confirmed the
presence of a vehicle or a pedestrian,
this warning lamp flashes (for about
10 seconds) once the function is
acting on the vehicle's brakes.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, keep the brake
pedal pressed down to prevent the vehicle from
starting off again.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, the engine may stall.
The driver can maintain control of the
vehicle at any time by sharply turning
the steering wheel and/or pressing the
accelerator pedal.
Operation of the function may be felt by
slight vibration in the brake pedal.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
the automatic braking is maintained for 1
to 2
seconds.
- The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle is
detected.
-
T
he vehicle's speed must be between 6 mph
and 53
mph (10 km/h and 85 km/h) when a
moving vehicle is detected.
Driving
156
During a correction, if the driver is inactive
(not holding the steering wheel for
10 seconds), a warning message appears.
If the driver remains inactive (not holding
the steering wheel for 2
more seconds),
the correction is interrupted.
Risk of undesirable operation
The system is not intended for driving in the
following situations:
-
d
riving on a racing circuit,
-
d
riving with a trailer,
-
d
riving on a rolling stand,
-
d
riving on unstable sur faces.
Malfunction
Operating limits
The system goes into standby automatically in
the following cases:
-
t
he ASR /DSC systems are deactivated or
the ESC operation is triggered,
-
s
peed below 40 mph (65 km/h) or greater
than 112
mph (180 km/h),
-
c
onnected electrically to a trailer,
-
u
se of the "space-saver" spare
wheel detected (as detection is not
immediate, deactivation of the system is
recommended),
-
d
ynamic driving style detected, pressure on
the brake or accelerator pedal,
-

-
a
ctivation of the direction indicators,
-
c
rossing the inside line on a bend,
-
d
riving in a tight corner,
-
i
nactivity by the driver detected during
correction.
Deactivation of the system is recommended in
the following situations:
-
d
riving on a road sur face in poor condition,
-
u
nfavourable climatic conditions,
-
d
riving on slippery sur faces (ice).In the event of a fault with the system, you are
alerted by the illumination of these warning
lamps in the instrument panel, accompanied by
the display of a message and an audible signal.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The following situations may interfere with
the operation of the system or prevent it
from working:
-
c
onditions of poor visibility (inadequate
street lighting, snowfall, rain, fog),

Malfunction
If a fault occurs when shifting to
reverse, this warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel, accompanied
by a message and an audible signal
(short beep).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
Reversing camera
With the ignition on, this system uses a camera
located near the third brake lamp to display a
view of the rear of your vehicle on the output
screen (if it is a panel van or has a solid
partition).
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged. The image is
displayed on the output screen. The output
screen switches off when the gearbox is in
neutral or in a for ward gear. The blue lines 1 represent the general direction
of the vehicle (the gap corresponds to the width
of your vehicle with the mirrors).
The red line 2 represents a distance of about
30
cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r.
The green lines 3 represent distances of
about 1 and 2
metres beyond the edge of your
vehicle's rear bumper.
The turquoise blue curves 4 represent the
maximum turning circle.
The reversing camera is a driving aid which
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Some objects may not be seen by the
camera. Certain vehicles may be difficult to see
(dark colours, headlamps off) when the
brightness of the screen is reduced by the
vehicle’s lighting dimmer.
The image quality may be affected by the
environment, the exterior conditions (rain,
dirt, dust), the driving mode, the lighting
conditions (night, low sun).
In the presence of areas in shade, or in
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate
lighting, the image may be darkened and
with lower contrast.
Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are in reality.
During parking manoeuvres and lane
changes, it is important to check the sides
of the vehicle using the mirrors.
The rear parking sensors also provide
information on the vehicle's surroundings.

Automatic electronic
parking brake
This system does not require any
routine servicing. However, in case
of an issue, do not hesitate to have
the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
For more information on the Automatic
electronic parking brake , refer to the
corresponding section.
Wheels and tyres
The pressure must be checked on
all tyres, including the spare wheel,
when the tyres are "cold", at least
once a month and before a long
j o u r n ey. Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces
braking efficiency and control of the vehicle's
steering. Regular inspections of the condition
of tyres (tread and sides) and rims are
recommended as well as making sure that
valves are fitted.
Using different size wheels and tyres from
those specified can affect the lifetime of tyres,
wheel rotation, ground clearance and the
speedometer reading and have an adverse
effect on road holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause unwanted ESC regulation.
The pressures given on the tyre pressure label
are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for
more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles
(10
kilometres) at more than 31 mph (50 km/h),
0.3
bar (30 kPa) should be added to the values
given on the label.
Under-inflation increases fuel consumption.
Non-compliant tyre pressure causes premature
wear on tyres and has an adverse effect on the
vehicle's road holding – Risk of an accident! Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the per formance or fuel
consumption of Diesel engines, PEUGEOT
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a Diesel particle filter
(DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of
the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue
® is contained in
a special tank holding about
17
litres.
Its capacity allows a driving range of
approximately 5,600
miles (9,000 km), highly
dependent on your driving style.
An alert system is triggered automatically once
the reser ve level is reached: you can then drive
for a further 1,500
miles (2,400 km) before the
tank is empty.
