Driving recommendations
Obser ve the Highway Code and remain vigilant 
whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your 
hands on the wheel so that you are ready to 
react at any time to any eventuality.
As a safety measure, the driver should only 
carry out any operations that require close 
attention when the vehicle is stationary.
On a long journey, a break every two hours is 
strongly recommended.
In bad weather, drive smoothly, anticipate the 
need to brake and increase the safety distance.
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.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied 
– risk of overheating and damage to the 
braking system!
Do not park and do not run the engine 
with the vehicle stationary, in areas where 
substances and combustible materials 
(dry grass, leaves, etc.) can come into 
contact with the hot exhaust system – 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.
In case of towing
If you are obliged to drive through water:
-  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. 
Under no circumstances 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 
circumstances allow, make several light brake 
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt about the state of your vehicle, 
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop. 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.
6 
Driving  

104
In some cases of particularly demanding use 
(when towing the maximum load on a steep 
gradient in high temperatures), the engine 
power is automatically limited. In such a case, 
the air conditioning is automatically switched 
off to increase the available engine power.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.
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 adjusting 
the Headlamp beam
, 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.
Starting and stopping
Running and accessories position.
To unlock the steering, turn the steering wheel 
gently while turning the key, without forcing. In 
this position, certain accessories can be used. Starting position.
The starter is operated. the engine turns over, 
release the key.
STOP position
: anti-theft.
The ignition is off. Turn the steering wheel until 
the steering column locks. Remove the key.
If this warning lamp comes on, a door 
or the bonnet is not closed correctly. 
Please check!Diesel engines
If the temperature is high enough, 
the warning lamp comes on for 
less than a second, you can start 
without waiting.
In cold weather, wait for this warning lamp to go 
off then operate the starter (starting position) 
until the engine starts.
When switching off the ignition, let the 
engine run for a few seconds to allow the 
turbocharger (Diesel engine) to return to 
idle.
Do not press the accelerator when 
switching off the ignition.
There is no need to engage a gear after 
parking the vehicle. 
Driving  

105
Electronic engine 
immobiliser
All of the keys contain an electronic immobiliser 
device.
This device locks the engine supply system. 
It is activated automatically when the key is 
removed from the ignition.
When the ignition switch is turned on, a 
dialogue is set up between the key and the 
electronic immobiliser.
The metal part of the key must be correctly 
unfolded to ensure a good connection.
In case of lost keys
See a PEUGEOT dealer with the vehicle 
registration certificate and your ID.
A PEUGEOT dealer can retrieve the key 
code and the transponder code to order the 
replacement key.
When you leave the vehicle, check that the 
lamps are off and do not leave valuables 
visible.
As a safety precaution (with children on 
board), remove the key from the ignition when 
leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.
Parking brake
Application
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.
When parking on a slope, turn your 
wheels towards the kerb and pull the 
parking brake lever up.
There is no advantage in engaging a gear 
after parking the vehicle, particularly if the 
vehicle is loaded. Apply the parking brake only when the 
vehicle is stationary
.
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).
Release
F Pull the lever up slightly and press the  button to release the parking brake lever.
When the vehicle is being driven, this 
warning lamp coming on indicates 
that the parking brake is still on or 
has not been fully released.
Manual gearbox
To change gear easily, always press the clutch 
pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught 
under the pedal:
-
 
e
 nsure that the mat is positioned and 
secured to the floor correctly,
-
 
n
 ever fit one mat on top of another.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand on the 
gear knob as the force exerted, even if slight, 
may wear the internal components of the 
gearbox over time.

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

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.
