Gear shift indicator
This system helps reduce fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
With an electronic gearbox, the system is active
only in manual mode.The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow. It may be
accompanied by a recommended gear.
The system adapts its gear shift
recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the
driver’s requirements (power, acceleration,
b r a k i n g , e t c .) .
The system never suggests:
-
e

ngaging first gear,
-
enga

ging reverse gear.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
t emporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in the 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.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The " ECO" indicator lamp in the
instrument panel comes on and the
engine goes into standby:
-

w

ith a manual gearbox , at a speed below
12

mph (20 km/h) (depending on version),
when you move the gear lever into neutral
and release the clutch pedal.
-

w

ith a 6-speed electronic gearbox ,
when stationary or at a speed below 5
mph
(8

km/h), when you press the brake pedal or
move the gear selector into position N .
If your vehicle is so equipped, a time counter
calculates the total time spent in STOP mode
during a journey. It is reset to zero every time
the ignition is switched on using the key.
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one (or several) gear(s). You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
Gear shift recommendations are only optional.
In fact, the road configuration, the traffic
density and safety remain the determining
factors when choosing the best gear. The driver
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow this advice.
This function cannot be deactivated.
Driving

109
With a 6 -speed electronic gearbox, for
your convenience when parking, the
STOP mode is not available for the few
seconds that follow disengagement of
reverse gear.
The Stop & Start system does not affect
the vehicle's functions, such as, for
example, braking, power steering, etc.
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 vehicle is on a steep slope (uphill or
downhill),
-

t
he driver's door is open,
-

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

t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10

in STOP mode, the engine restarts
immediately.
Manual reactivation
F Press the ECO OFF switch again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed
by the switch indicator lamp going off and a
message in the instrument panel. The system is reactivated automatically at
every new start using the key.
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction with the system,
the ECO OFF switch indicator lamp flashes,
then comes on continuously.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If a fault occurs in STOP mode, the vehicle
may stall. All of the instrument panel warning
lamps come on. It is then necessary to switch
the ignition off and to restart the engine using
t h e key.
Opening the bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid the risk of injury related to an
automatic change to START mode.
Driving on flooded roads

Hill start assist
This system keeps your vehicle briefly
stationary (for approximately 2 seconds) when
making a hill start, while you transfer your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
This system (also called HHC – Hill Hold
Control), integrated with the dynamic stability
control system, is activated in the following
conditions:
-

t
he vehicle must be stationary, engine
running, foot on the brake,
-

t
he gradient of the road must be steeper
than 5%,
-

u
phill, the gearbox must be in neutral or in a
gear other than reverse,
-
do

wnhill, reverse gear must be engaged.
The hill start assist system is a driving
aid. It is not an automatic vehicle parking
function or an automatic parking brake.
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 in the hill start assist phase.
If you need to get out of the vehicle with
the engine running, apply the parking
brake manually then ensure that the
parking brake warning 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.
Operating fault
If a malfunction of the system
occurs, this warning lamp comes on
accompanied by an audible signal
and confirmed by a message in
the screen. Have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or by a qualified
workshop.
