Information displayed on
the instrument panel
When the ignition is switched on, the drive
selector status is displayed on the instrument
panel:
P : Park.
R : Reverse.
N : Neutral.
D : Drive (automatic forward gear).
B : Brake (regenerative braking activated).
Operation
► Move the selector by pressing it forwards
( N or R) or rearwards (N or D) once or twice,
passing the point of resistance if necessary.
For example, to change from
P to R (with your
foot on the brake pedal), either push forwards
twice without passing the point of resistance or
push just once, passing the point of resistance.
Regenerative braking
With the Brake function and when
decelerating
The Brake function emulates engine braking,
slowing the vehicle with no need to depress the
brake pedal. The vehicle slows more quickly
when the driver releases the accelerator pedal.
The energy recovered when the accelerator
pedal is released is then used to partially
recharge the traction battery, thereby increasing
the vehicle's driving range.
The resulting deceleration of the vehicle does not cause the brake lamps to come
on.
►
From mode
D, press button B to activate/
deactivate the function (the button lights up when
the function is activated).
D on the instrument panel is replaced with B.
The status of the function is saved when the
ignition is switched off.
In some situations (e.g. battery full,
extreme temperatures), the amount of
regenerative braking may be temporarily
limited, resulting in less deceleration.
The driver must remain alert to traffic
conditions and must always be ready to use
the brake pedal.
With the brake pedal
When the brake pedal is depressed, the
intelligent braking system automatically recovers
some of the energy and uses it to recharge the
traction battery.
This energy recovery also reduces use of the
brake pads, thereby limiting their wear.
The driver may experience a different sensation when depressing the brake
pedal compared to a vehicle without
regenerative braking.
Driving modes (Electric)
Driving modes are selected using the following
control:
► Press the control to display the modes on the
instrument panel, and depending on version, on
the screen with 3D Connected Navigation. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

6When starting the vehicle, no mode can be
selected until the READY indicator lamp is
displayed.
When the message disappears, the selected
mode is activated and remains indicated on the
instrument panel (except Normal mode).
Each time the ignition is switched on, Normal
mode is selected by default.
Normal
This optimises the driving range and dynamic
performance.
To obtain maximum torque and power, depress
the accelerator pedal fully.
Eco
Optimises energy consumption, by reducing
the output of the heating and air conditioning
(without actually deactivating them) and limiting
both motor torque and power.
Power
Provides equivalent vehicle performance when
fully laden (GVW) to when the vehicle is in
Normal mode and when unladen.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
phases when the vehicle is stationary (e.g.
red
lights, traffic jams). The engine automatically
restarts - START mode - as soon as the driver
indicates the intention of moving off again.
Primarily designed for urban use, the function
is intended to reduce fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise level
when stationary.
The function does not affect the functionalities of
the vehicle, in particular the braking.

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
the 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), by the masking of the detection zone
with adhesive labels or other objects, or if the
bumpers are damaged.
If the front or rear 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).
Take care not to cover the detection zones
on the front and rear bumpers with adhesive
labels or other objects; they may hamper
correct operation of the associated system.
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, CarM an uals 2 .c o m
151
Driving
6frosty, covered with snow, damaged or
masked by a sticker.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (e.g. inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(e.g.
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
units of speed so that it complies with what is
authorised locally.
In case of doubt, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Memorising speeds
This function allows you to save speed
settings which are then used to set the two
systems: the speed limiter (limits the speed
of the vehicle) or cruise control (vehicle
cruising speed).
You can save 6 speed settings for each of the
two systems.
Programming
The speed thresholds can be set in the vehicle configuration menu using the
touch screen.

Road signs recognition
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system displays the maximum speed
authorised locally on the instrument panel, using:
–
Speed limit signs detected by the camera.
–
Speed limit information from the navigation
system’
s mapping.
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 work properly when
changing countries, the speed unit of the
instrument panel must match that of the
country you are driving in.
Automatic sign reading is a driving aid system and does not always display the
correct speed limits.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over those displayed by
the system.
The system is designed to detect signs that
conform to the Vienna Convention on road
signs.
