STOP position.
The parking brake must be applied each time the ignition is switched off.
If the parking brake is not applied, the
message "ENGAGE HANDBRAKE " appears
in the rear view mirror accompanied by an
audible signal lasting 10 seconds.
If the driver's door is opened with mode
D or R selected, the drive selector
automatically switches to mode N. The
message "DRIVE ACTIVE" is displayed in the
rear view mirror accompanied by an audible
signal.
Always remove the key from the ignition switch when the vehicle is parked in
order to avoid discharging the 12
V accessory
battery.
Battery standby system
If your vehicle is to be out of use for an extended
period of time, such as during winter storage for
example, it is strongly recommended to put the
battery in standby mode in order to protect it and
optimise its life.


To put the battery in standby mode:
► Switch the engine off ( ST
OP position).


► Press the red button, then turn the key to the
BA TT position.
The battery goes into standby mode
approximately 7 minutes later.
This time is necessary to:
–

allow the user to leave the vehicle and lock the
doors using the remote control.
–


ensure that all vehicle electrical systems are
deactivated.
When the battery is in standby mode,
access to the vehicle is only possible by
unlocking the mechanical lock on the driver's
side door.
After a battery standby, the information (time, date, radio stations, etc.) is
memorised.
To remove the battery from standby mode:
►

T

urn the key to the MAR - ON position.
►

Start the vehicle normally ( AV

V position).

Driving
6Drive selector (Electric)

The drive selector is used to control the vehicle's
forward and reverse movement.
Three back-lit buttons allow you to select the
driving mode:
D.Drive (automatic forward gear)
Lights up green.
N. Neutral
Lights up white.
To park the vehicle or switch to free-wheeling.
R. Reverse
Lights up red.
Display in the rear view
mirror
The drive selector status is shown on the display
integrated into the rear view mirror:
D : Drive (automatic forward gear)
N : Neutral
R : Reverse
Operation
When the ignition is switched on, the drive
selector is always in mode N.
►

With your foot on the brake pedal, press the
required button to change mode.
The button lights up in the corresponding colour

.
Each time the mode is changed, a short audible
signal can be heard.
You can switch from D to R without passing
through N.
Do not change mode without first having
completely immobilised the vehicle.
If the driver's door is opened with mode
D or R selected, the drive selector
automatically switches to mode N. The
message "DRIVE ACTIVE" is displayed in the
rear view mirror accompanied by an audible
signal.
Regenerative braking
If the driver releases the accelerator pedal while
driving, the vehicle generates energy. Depending
on the level of charge and the driving conditions,
the energy recovered is then used to recharge
the traction battery.
This energy recovery is not possible if the driver
depresses the brake pedal sharply.
Gentle, prolonged braking is therefore
recommended in order to conserve energy in
the traction battery and thereby optimise the
vehicle's driving range.
Gear shift indicator
Depending on version or engine, this system
reduces fuel consumption by recommending a
higher gear change.
Gear shift recommendations should not be
considered 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.
The system cannot be deactivated.
Operation
The information appears in the instrument panel screen in the form of the SHIFT
indicator, accompanied by an upward arrow to
signal to the driver that they can change up.
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 recommends engaging first
gear or reverse, or changing down.

77
Driving
6where the engine is needed to assure control of
a system.
–
during intensive use of Stop & Start, it may
be deactivated to conserve starting ability; go
to a PEUGEOT

dealer to have the function
reactivated.
This indicator lamp in the instrument panel flashes for a few seconds, then
goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Going into engine START
mode
With a gear engaged, the automatic restarting of
the engine is only possible by fully depressing
the clutch pedal.
This indicator lamp goes off and the engine restarts.
If, after an automatic restart in START mode, the
driver does not perform any action on the vehicle
within 3 minutes, the system stops the engine
permanently. The engine can only be restarted
with the ignition key.
Special cases: START mode
activated automatically
The START mode may be invoked automatically
in the following circumstances:
–

the vehicle is free-wheeling on a gradient,
–


the windscreen wipers are on fast wipe,
–


the air conditioning is on,
– the engine has been stopped for around 3
minutes with Stop & Start,
–

some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance, air
conditioning setting, etc.) where the engine is
needed for control of the system or vehicle.
In this case, a message appears in the
instrument panel screen, accompanied by
this indicator lamp, which flashes for a few
seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
While in STOP mode with a manual
gearbox, if a gear is engaged without
fully depressing the clutch pedal, restarting
may not take place.
An indicator lamp and/or message is
displayed in the instrument panel asking
you to fully depress the clutch pedal to allow
restarting.
With the engine stopped in STOP mode,
if the driver unfastens their seat belt and
opens a front door, the engine can only be
restarted using the ignition key. There is an
audible signal, accompanied by flashing of this
indicator lamp, and the display of a message.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, the Stop &
Start is deactivated and this warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by a message on the
instrument panel display.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.In the event of a malfunction
in STOP mode, the engine can be restarted by
fully
depressing the clutch pedal or putting the
gear lever in neutral.
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:
–

the vehicle must be stationary
, engine running,
foot on the brake,
–

the gradient of the road must be steeper than
5%,
–


uphill, the gearbox must be in neutral or in a
gear other than reverse,
–


downhill, 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.

78
Driving
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, you
may hear the typical mechanical brake release
noise, signalling the imminent movement of the
vehicle.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily by hill start assist.
If you need to get out of the vehicle with
the engine running, apply the parking brake
manually then ensure that the parking brake
indicator lamp is on. Hill start assist is deactivated in the following
situations:
–

when the clutch pedal is released,
–

when the parking brake is applied,
–

when the engine is switched off,
–

if the engine stalls.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Tyre under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system continuously monitors the pressures
of the four tyres, as soon as the vehicle is
moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of each
tyre (except the spare wheel).
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one or
more tyres.
The under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
regularly check the tyre pressures (including
the spare wheel) as well as before a long
journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly
in adverse conditions (heavy load, high
speed, long journey):
–

worsens road-holding,
–


lengthens braking distances,
–


causes premature wear of the tyres,
–


increases energy consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for the vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
Tyre pressures should be checked when the
tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or
after a journey of less than 6 miles (10 km) at
moderate speeds). Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to
the pressures shown on the label.
For more information on Identification
markings, including the tyre pressure label,
refer to the corresponding section.
The tyre pressure measurement unit can be configured via the MODE button: in the
"Tyre pressure" menu, select "psi/bar/kPa".
For more information on Vehicle configuration
(MODE), refer to the corresponding section.

Driving
6Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
If a fault is detected in just one of the tyres, the
symbol or message displayed, depending on
equipment, will identify it.
►

Reduce speed immediately
, avoid excessive
steering movements and avoid sudden braking.
►

Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.
The loss of pressure detected may not always cause visible deformation of the
tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
►

Using a compressor
, such as the one in
the temporary puncture repair kit, check the
pressures of all four tyres when cold.
►

If it is not possible to carry out this check
immediately

, drive carefully at reduced speed.
►

In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel
(depending on equipment).
Driving too slowly may not ensure
optimum monitoring.
The alert is not immediately triggered in the
event of a sudden loss of pressure or tyre
blow-out. This is because analysis of the
values read by the wheel's speed sensors
can take several minutes.
The alert may be delayed at speeds below
25 mph (40 km/h), or when adopting a sporty
driving mode.
The alert is kept active until the tyre/tyres
concerned is/are reinflated, repaired or
replaced.
Malfunction
The flashing and then fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by the
illumination of the service warning lamp, and
depending on equipment, the display of a
message, indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, the tyre pressures are no longer
monitored.
This alert is also displayed if at least one wheel is not equipped with a sensor.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked or,
following a puncture, to have a tyre refitted to the
original rim, equipped with a sensor.
Pneumatic suspension

If the vehicle is equipped with pneumatic
suspension, it is possible to change the height
of the rear sill, in order to facilitate loading or
unloading.




There is a normal sill level, as well as 3 higher
levels (from +1 to +3) and 3 lower levels (from
-1 to -3). Each level reached is displayed on the
instrument panel display screen.

80
Driving
Loading sill height manual
correction
Adjusting the platform sill up or down
► A quick press on one of the controls selects
the upper or lower level. Each press (diode lit)
increases or decreases by one level.
A long press on one of the controls selects the
maximum corresponding level (-3 or +3).
Returning to the normal sill height
► Press the same number of times in the
opposite direction of the displayed position.
Deactivation/Reactivation
► Press and hold both controls simultaneously
to deactivate/reactivate the system.
Deactivation is confirmed by the lighting of the
control LEDs.
Beyond a speed of 3 mph (5 km/h), the
system reactivates automatically.
Loading sill height
automatic correction
Beyond a speed of 12 mph (20 km/h), the
system automatically restores the rear sill height
to its normal level.
Malfunction
In the event of a system malfunction, this
warning lamp comes on.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Driving with the suspension set too high
or too low poses risk of damaging
components under the body.
The height may be adjusted automatically to
take account of changes in temperature or
loading.
You must avoid using this control in the
following circumstances:
–

when working underneath the vehicle,
–


when changing a wheel,
–


when the vehicle is being transported by
lorry

, train, ferry, boat, etc.
To avoid damaging the vehicle or injuring
anyone, check that there is nothing or no
person that might be close to or come into
contact with the vehicle, before raising or
lowering the suspension.
Driving and manoeuvring
aids - General
recommendations
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway
Code, must remain in control of the vehicle in
all circumstances and must be able to retake
control of it at all times. The driver must adapt
the speed to climatic conditions, traffic and
the state of the road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
monitor traffic conditions, assess the distance
and relative speed of other vehicles, and
anticipate their manoeuvres before using the
direction indicator and changing lanes.
These systems do not make it possible to
exceed the laws of physics.
Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel with
both hands, always use the door and interior
mirrors, always leave your feet close to the
pedals and take a break every 2 hours.
Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the
surroundings of the vehicle before and during

81
Driving
6the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the
mirrors.
Radar(s)
The operation of the radar(s), along with
any associated functions, may be affected
by the accumulation of dirt (e.g.
mud, ice),
in poor weather conditions (e.g.
heavy rain,
snow), or if the bumpers are damaged.
If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop;
certain types of paint could interfere with the
operation of the radar(s).
Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions
may be impaired or not work if the windscreen
area in front of the camera is dirty, misty,
frosty, covered with snow, damaged or
masked by a sticker.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun,
reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel,
alternating shade and light) can also impair
detection performance.
In the event of a windscreen replacement,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to recalibrate the camera;
otherwise, the operation of the associated
driving aids may be disrupted.
Other cameras
The images from the camera(s)
displayed on the touch screen or on the
instrument panel may be distorted by the
terrain.
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.
Sensors
The operation of the sensors, as well as
any associated functions, may be disrupted
by noise pollution such as that emitted by
noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries,
pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of
snow or dead leaves on the road or in the
event of damaged bumpers and mirrors.
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors
may be dirty.
A front or rear impact to the vehicle can
upset the sensors’ settings, which is not
always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be distorted.
The sensors do not systematically detect
obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs)
or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).
Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind
spots may not be detected or may no longer
be detected during the manoeuvre.
Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
Maintenance
Clean the bumpers and door mirrors and
the field of vision of the cameras regularly.
When washing your vehicle at high pressure,
direct the spray from at least 30
cm away
from the radar, sensors and cameras.
Mats/Pedal trims
The use of mats or pedal trims not
approved by PEUGEOT may interfere with
the operation of the speed limiter or cruise
control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
–

Ensure that the mat is secured correctly
.
–

Never fit one mat on top of another
.
Units of speed
Ensure that the units of speed displayed
on the instrument panel (mph or km/h) are
those for the country you are driving in.
If this is not the case, when the vehicle is
stationary, set the display to the required

82
Driving
units of speed so that it complies with what is
authorised locally.
In case of doubt, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Speed Limit recognition
and recommendation
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .




Using the camera located at the top of the
windscreen, this system detects the following
types of signs and displays the corresponding
information on the instrument panel:
– the maximum authorised speed,
– no overtaking,
–

the end of the previous limitations/restrictions.
The system detects signs on the left-hand side
and right-hand side, high and low

, as well as
overlapping signs.
The system only detects circular signs.
The units for the speed limit (mph or km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
This should be taken into account to ensure
you observe the speed limit.
For the system to operate correctly when
you change country, the units for speed in
the instrument panel must be those for the
country you are driving in.
Automatic road sign detection is a driving aid system and does not always display
speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over the display by the
system.
It is possible for the system to not display the
speed limit if it does not detect a speed limit
sign within a preset period.
The system is designed to detect signs that
conform to the Vienna Convention on road
signs. When replacing the bulbs of the headlamps,
it is highly recommended that you fit genuine
replacement parts.
Using other bulbs could reduce system
performance.
Principles

Using the camera, located at the top of the
windscreen, this system detects and reads the
speed limit indications, overtaking prohibitions
and signs indicating the end of implementation of
the signs previously mentioned.
The sign is read by the camera and is displayed
in the instrument panel when it is passed (when
the vehicle is level with it).
Display on the touch screen
then in the instrument panel
Traffic signs are displayed in two phases:
–
All new recognised traffic signs are displayed
on the touch screen in the form of a popup for 40
seconds.
