Emergency braking
If depressing the brake pedal fails to provide effective braking or in exceptional circumstances (e.g. driver unwell, assisted driving), the vehicle can be braked by sustained pulling on the electric parking brake control. Braking continues for as long as the control is kept pulled, and ceases when the control is released.The ABS and DSC systems stabilise the vehicle during emergency braking.If emergency braking malfunctions, the message "Parking brake fault" will be displayed on the instrument panel.If the ABS and DSC systems malfunction, indicated by lighting one or both warning lamps on the instrument panel, the vehicle’s stability is no longer ensured.► In this case, ensure the vehicle's stability by successive and repeated "pull-release" actions on the electric parking brake control until the vehicle comes to a complete stop.
Hill start assist
System which briefly keeps the vehicle stationary (for approximately 2 seconds) when making a hill start, while you transfer your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.It is only active when:– The vehicle is completely stationary, with your foot on the brake pedal.– Certain slope conditions are met.– The driver’s door is closed.
WARNI NG
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being held temporarily by hill start assist.If someone needs to get out of the vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake manually. Then check that the parking brake indicator lamp and the P indicator lamp in the electric parking brake control lever are on fixed.
WARNI NG
The hill start assist function cannot be deactivated. However, using the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts its operation.
Operation

Facing uphill, with the vehicle stationary, the vehicle is held for a short time when the driver releases the brake pedal:– If first gear or neutral is engaged on a manual gearbox.– If mode D or M is selected on an automatic gearbox.– If mode D or B is selected on the drive selector.

Facing downhill, with the vehicle stationary and reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held for a short time when the driver releases the brake pedal.

Moving off
► With your foot on the brake, select position P.► Start the engine.If the conditions are not met, there is an audible signal, accompanied by a message on the instrument panel screen.► Release the parking brake, unless it is set to automatic mode (with electric parking brake).► Select position R, N or D.
WARNI NG
If you are setting off from a steep slope with a loaded vehicle, depress the brake pedal, select position D, release the parking brake, unless it is set to automatic mode (with electric parking brake), then release the brake pedal.
► Gradually release the brake pedal.Or► Accelerate gradually in order to release the electric parking brake (if it is set to automatic mode).The vehicle moves off immediately.
NOTIC E
If P is displayed on the instrument panel but the selector is in another position, place the selector in position P to allow the engine to be started.If position N is selected inadvertently while driving, allow the engine to return to idle, then select position D to accelerate.
WARNI NG
When the engine is running at idle with the brakes released, if position R, D or M is selected, the vehicle moves even without the accelerator being pressed.Never leave children inside the vehicle unsupervised.As a safety measure, never leave the vehicle without taking your key or remote control with you, even for a short time.When carrying out maintenance with the engine running, apply the parking brake and select position P.
WARNI NG
With an automatic gearbox, never try to start
the engine by pushing the vehicle.
Automatic operation
► Select position D for automatic changing of the 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, fully depress the accelerator pedal (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.
WARNI NG
Never select position N while the vehicle is moving.Never select positions P or R unless the vehicle is completely stationary.

Temporary manual control
of gear changes
You can temporarily assume control of gear changing using the "+" et "-” steering-mounted controls. The gear change request will be executed if the engine speed permits. This function allows you to anticipate certain situations, such as overtaking another vehicle or approaching a bend in the road. After a few seconds with no inputs via the control paddles, the gearbox reverts to automatic operation.
Creeping (moving without
using the accelerator)
This function facilitates manoeuvring of the vehicle at low speed (when parking, in traffic jams, etc.).When the engine is at idle, with the parking brake released and gear position D, M or R selected, the vehicle begins to creep forward as soon as you take your foot off the brake pedal
(even without pressing the accelerator).
WARNI NG
As a safety precaution, never leave the vehicle with the engine running and the doors closed.
Manual operation
► With the selector in position D, press button M to enable 6-speed sequential gear changing.The indicator lamp for the button comes on.► Operate the "+" or "-" steering mounted controls. M appears and the engaged gears are shown in succession on the instrument panel.► You can revert to automatic operation at any time by pressing button M again.The indicator lamp for the button goes off.
NOTIC E
In manual mode, there is no need to release the accelerator pedal while changing gear.
NOTIC E
It is only possible to change from one gear to another if the vehicle speed and engine speed permit.
NOTIC E
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.When the vehicle is stationary or moving very slowly, the gearbox automatically selects gear M1.
NOTIC E
To preserve the brakes while descending a steep incline, use engine braking to reduce your speed (change down or select 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.
NOTIC E
Depending on the road configuration (e.g. mountainous road), manual operation may be preferable.Automatic operation may not always be
suitable, and does not enable engine braking.

Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear is not engaged correctly (gear selector between two positions).► Place the selector "correctly" at a position.
Switching off the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, select position P then apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle, unless this is set to automatic mode (with electric parking brake).Check that mode P has been engaged and that the electric parking brake has been applied automatically; if not, apply it manually.The corresponding indicator lamps in the selector and the electric parking brake control lever must be on, as well as those on the instrument panel.
NOTIC E
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.► Return the drive selector to position P; the audible signal stops and the message disappears.
WARNI NG
When positioned on a steep slope with a loaded vehicle, depress the brake pedal, select position P, apply the parking brake, unless it is set to automatic mode (with electric parking brake), then release the brake pedal.
WARNI NG
