Rear foglamps
They only work if the dipped or main beam headlamps are on.
► Rotate the ring forwards/backwards to turn
them on/off.
When the lamps are switched off automatically
("AUTO" position), the foglamps and the dipped
beam headlamps will remain on.
Switching on the foglamps is prohibited
in clear weather or in rain, both day and
night. In these situations, the power of their
beams may dazzle other drivers. They must
only be used in fog or falling snow (rules may
vary depending on country).
Do not forget to switch off the foglamps when
they are no longer necessary.
Front foglamps/Rear
foglamps
They operate with the sidelamps, dipped or main
beam headlamps on.
► Rotate the ring to this position to
switch on the front foglamps.

once to switch on the rear foglamps,
•
a second time to switch off the rear
foglamps.
The ring returns to the front foglamps position.
►
Rotate
the ring backwards to the " OFF"
position to switch off the front foglamps.
If the lighting is switched off automatically (with
AUTO model) or the dipped beam headlamps
are switched off manually, the foglamps and
sidelamps remain on.
►
Rotate the ring backwards to the “ OFF”
position to switch the foglamps off; the sidelamps
will then switch off.
Switching off of the lamps when the
ignition is switched off
When the ignition is switched off, all of the

beam headlamps if automatic guide-me-home
lighting is activated.
Switching on the lamps after
switching off the ignition
To reactivate the lighting control, rotate the
ring, depending on version, to the " OFF"
position - lamps off, or to the "AUTO" position,
then to the desired position.
If the driver's door is opened, a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the lamps
are on.
They will go off automatically after a period of
time that depends on the state of charge of
the battery (entering energy economy mode).
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
Never look too closely at the light beam
of LED technology lamps - risk of serious

Vehicles equipped with halogen
headlamps:
If planning to use your vehicle in a country
that drives on the other side of the road, the
headlamp dipped beams must be adjusted to
avoid dazzling oncoming drivers. Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Daytime running lamps/
Sidelamps
These lamps at the front and rear of the vehicle
light up automatically when the engine starts.
They perform the following functions:
–
Daytime running lamps (lighting control stalk
at position "
OFF" or "AUTO" with adequate
ambient light).
–
Sidelamps (lighting control stalk at position
"
AUTO" with low ambient light or "Sidelamps
only" or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").
Cornering lighting
This system makes use of the beam from a front
foglamp to illuminate the inside of a bend, when
the main or dipped beam headlamps are on and
the vehicle speed is below 25 mph (40
km/h)
(urban driving, winding road, junctions, parking
manoeuvres).
Without/With cornering lighting
Switching on/off
This system starts:
– when the corresponding direction indicator is
switched on.
or
–
from a certain angle of rotation of the steering
wheel.
It becomes inactive:
–
below a certain angle of rotation of the
steering wheel.
–

Locking the rear
differential
When the rear differential is locked, torque is
transmitted to both rear wheels equally, thereby
improving the vehicle's traction.
Locking the rear differential is especially useful
when the rear wheels are skidding (in a ditch or
on a slippery road, for example).
Operating conditions
The differential lock is activated manually (speed
below approximately 5 mph (8 km/h)).
The vehicle's wheels must not be skidding (wait
until they have stopped).

Driving
6Automatic operation
► Select position D for automatic changing of
the six gears.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any intervention on the part of the
driver. It continuously selects the most suitable
gear according to the driving style, the road
profile and the load in the vehicle.
For maximum acceleration without touching the
selector, press the accelerator fully down (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.
If you release the accelerator sharply, the
gearbox will not shift to a higher gear for safety
reasons.
Never select position N while the vehicle
is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless the
vehicle is completely stationary.
Manual operation
To limit fuel consumption during an extended standstill with the engine
running (for example, in a traffic jam), set the
gear selector to N and apply the parking
brake.
► Selecting position +/- enables sequential
shifting between the six gears.
►
T
o shift up/down through the gears, push the
control forwards/backwards.
The gearbox only changes gear if the vehicle
speed and engine speed conditions allow;
otherwise, the rules for automatic operation are
temporarily applied.
D disappears, and the gears engaged appear in
succession on the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the
selected gear flashes for a few seconds, then the
gear actually engaged is shown.
It is possible to change from position D to
position +/-
at any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving very
slowly, the gearbox selects gear 1 automatically.
This symbol is displayed if a gear is not
engaged correctly (gear selector between
two positions).
Switching off the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, it is possible to
engage position P or N to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle.
If the gear 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.
►
Return the gear selector to P
; the audible
signal stops and the message disappears.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp comes on and a message is
displayed, when the ignition is switched on.
In this case, the gearbox goes into back-up
mode and is locked in 3
rd gear. You may feel a
significant jolt (without risk for the gearbox) while
changing from
P
to R and from N to R.
Do not exceed 62 mph (100
km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
There is a risk of damaging the gearbox: – If the accelerator and brake pedals are
pressed simultaneously
.
–
In the event of a battery failure, forcing the
selector from position P
to another position.

Practical information
Particle filter (Diesel)
(Depending on version)The start of clogging of the particle filter is indicated by the temporary lighting of this
warning lamp, accompanied by an alert
message.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a speed of at
least 37 mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp
goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this
indicates a low Diesel additive level.
For more information on Checking levels,
refer to the corresponding section.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you
may, in exceptional circumstances, notice
water vapour coming from the exhaust while
accelerating. These emissions have no
impact on the vehicle’s behaviour and the
environment.
New vehicle
During the first few particle filter
regeneration operations, you may notice a
"burning" smell. This is perfectly normal.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Screenwash fluid
Top up to the required level when necessary.
Tank capacity: 3 litres.
Fluid specification
The fluid must be topped up with a pre-mixed
product.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a fluid
containing an anti-freeze agent which is
appropriate for the temperature conditions
must be used in order to protect the system's
components (pump, tank, ducts, jets).
Filling with pure water is prohibited in all
circumstances (risk of freezing,
limescale, etc.).
Checks
Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule and according
to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
