In certain circumstances, you may have to
turn the steering wheel firmly to move the
road wheels (if the wheels are against a
kerb, for example).
F Unlock the steering column by simultaneously turning the steering and the key.
F Turn the key to position 2 , ignition on, to
operate the engine pre-heating system.
F Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the instrument panel then
operate the starter motor by
turning the key to position 3 without
pressing the accelerator pedal until

The indicator lamp does not come on
if the engine is hot. In some climatic
conditions, it is advised to follow the
recommendations below:
-
I
n temperate conditions, do not leave
the engine at idle to warm up but move
off straight away and drive at moderate
speed.
Depending on version, if the air conditioning is activated and when the
exterior temperature exceeds 35°C,
the idle engine speed can accelerate
to reach 1,300
rpm according to the air
conditioning requirements.
-
I
n wintry conditions, the pre-heater
warning lamp will stay on for a longer
period after switching on the ignition;
wait until it goes off before starting.
-
In ver y severe wintr y
conditions
(temperature below
-23°C), to ensure the correct operation
and durability of the mechanical
components of your vehicle (engine
and gearbox), leave the engine
running for 4
minutes before moving
of f.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death! With petrol engines
, after a cold start,
preheating the catalytic converter can
cause clearly-felt engine vibrations when
stationary, with the engine running, for
anything up to 2
minutes (accelerated idle
speed).
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition.
Wait a few seconds before restarting the
engine. If the engine does not start after
several attempts, do not keep trying: you
risk damaging the starter motor or the
engine.
Call in a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
-
o
nly use mats which are suited to the
fixings already present in the vehicle;
these fixings must be used,
-
n
ever place one mat on top of another.
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may inter fere with access to
the pedals and hinder the operation of the
cruise control/speed limiter.
The mats approved by PEUGEOT have
two fixings located below the seat.

Automatic operation
F Select position D for automatic
changing of the six gears.
Never select position N while the vehicle
is moving.
Never select position P or R unless the
vehicle is completely stationary.
Temporary manual control
of gear changes
You can temporarily take over control of gear
changes using the “ +” and “ -” steering mounted
controls. If the engine speed allows, the gear
change is carried out.
This function allows you to anticipate certain
situations, such as overtaking another vehicle
or approaching a bend in the road.
After a few moments with no action on the
control paddles, the gearbox returns to
automatic operation.
Self-sufficient traction (moving
without using the accelerator)
This function facilitates manoeuvring of the
vehicle at low speed (when parking, in traffic
jams, etc.).
With the engine at idle, parking brake released
and position D , M or R selected, the vehicle
moves
as soon as you take your foot off
the brake pedal (even without pressing the
accelerator).
As a safety measure (children on board),
never leave the vehicle with the engine
running and the doors closed.
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 (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 shift up if
you release the accelerator sharply.
Manual operation

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.
-
