F

M
onitor your environment and keep your
hands on the wheel to be able to react to
anything that may happen any time.
F

D
rive smoothly, anticipate the need for
braking and maintain a longer safety
distance, especially in bad weather.
F

S
top the vehicle to carry out operations
that require close attention (such as
adjustments).
F

D
uring long trips, take a break every two
hours.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. There is a risk of poisoning and
death!
In very severe wintry conditions
(temperatures below -23°C), to guarantee
correct operation and the longevity of
the mechanical elements of your vehicle,
engine and gearbox, the engine must be
left running for 4
minutes before driving.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied
– Risk of overheating and damage to the
braking system!
As the exhaust system of your vehicle
is very hot, even several minutes after
switching off the engine, never park or run
the engine on inflammable sur faces (dry
grass, fallen leaves, etc.) – Risk of fire!
Never leave a vehicle unsuper vised with
the engine running. If you have to leave
your vehicle with the engine running, apply
the parking brake and put the gearbox into
neutral or position N or P , depending on
the type of gearbox.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded
roads, as this could cause serious damage
to the engine or gearbox, as well as to the
electrical systems of your vehicle. If you are obliged to drive on a flooded road:
-

c
heck that the depth of water does not
exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that
might be generated by other users,
-
d
eactivate the Stop & Start function,
-
d
rive as slowly as possible without stalling.
In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h),
-
d
o not stop and do not switch off the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety
conditions allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.In case of towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
requires extra care from the driver.

Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
temperature 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 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
beam height adjustment , refer to the
corresponding section.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aids are
automatically disabled if an approved
towbar is used.
If the exterior temperature is high, it is
recommended that the engine is allowed
to idle for 1 to 2
minutes after the vehicle
comes to a stop, to facilitate its cooling.

If the engine speed is too low or too
high, the selected gear flashes for a few
seconds, then the actual activated gear is
displayed.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox selects gear M1
automatically.
To save the brakes when descending
a steep incline, use engine braking to
reduce your speed (change down to a
lower gear).
Keeping the brake pedal pressed
continuously for long periods can overheat
the brakes, with the risk of damaging the
braking system or making it inoperative.
Only use the brakes when necessary, to
slow or stop the vehicle.
Depending on the road configuration (e.g.
mountainous road), manual operation is
preferable.
This is because automatic operation may
not be best suited, not allowing the use of
engine braking.Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear is
not engaged correctly (gear selector
between two positions).
F

P

lace the selector "correctly" at a position.
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, select position
P then apply the parking brake to immobilise
the vehicle. A point of resistance may be noticed when
moving to position P .
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, an audible signal sounds and a
message appears.
F

R
eturn the selector to position P ; the
audible signal stops and the message
disappears.
On a steep slope with a loaded vehicle,
press the brake pedal , select position P,
apply the parking brake then release the
brake pedal. In all circumstances, ensure that the
selector is in position P before leaving
your vehicle.
Malfunction
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 knock when changing from P
to R and from N to R. This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed 60

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 (braking or
acceleration must be done only with
the right foot),
-

i

f you force the selector from position P
to another position when the battery is
flat.

QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
With the engine off, the audio system switches
off after a few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio
system operating time depends on the state of
charge of the battery.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system
switches to economy mode and switches off to
prevent discharging the vehicle's battery.Turn the ignition on to increase the charge of
the battery.
The message "the audio system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the
surrounding temperature is too high, the audio
system switches to an automatic thermal
protection mode leading to a reduction in
volume or the CD play stopping.Switch the audio system off for a few minutes
to allow the system to cool.

QUESTION
RESPONSESOLUTION
There is a difference in sound quality between
the different audio sources (radio, CD, etc.). To allow for optimal listening quality, the audio
settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience,
Loudness) can be tailored to different
sound sources, which can generate audible
differences when changing source (radio, CD,
e t c .) .Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience and Loudness) are adapted
to the sources listened to. It is advisable to set
the audio functions (Bass, Treble, Front-Rear
Balance and Left-Right Balance) to the middle
position, select the musical ambience "None"
and set the loudness correction to the "Active"
position in CD mode or to the "Inactive"
position in radio mode.
