SAFETY

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS

The incorrect installation of a child

seat in a vehicle compromises the

child's protection in the event of an ac-

cident.

When installing a child seat using the

seat belt, ensure that the seat belt is

tightened correctly on the child seat

and that it secures the child seat fi rmly

on the vehicle's seat.

Remember to fasten the seat belts or

the child seat harnesses

keeping the

slack in relation to the child's body to

a minimum , even for short journeys.

For optimum installation of the "for-

ward facing" child seat, ensure that

the back of the child seat is as close

as possible to the backrest of the vehi-

cle's seat, even in contact if possible.

Children at the front
The legislation on carrying children on

a front passenger seat is specifi c to

each country. Refer to the legislation

in force in your country.

Deactivate the passenger airbag

when a "rearward facing" child seat is

installed on the front seat. Otherwise,

the child would risk being seriously

injured or killed if the airbag were to

infl ate.

As a safety precaution, do not leave:

- one or more children alone and

unsupervised in a vehicle,

- a child or an animal in a vehicle

which is exposed to the sun, with

the windows closed,

- the keys within reach of children

inside the vehicle.

Installation of a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must

be positioned on the child's shoulder

without touching the neck.

Ensure that the lap part of the seat

belt passes correctly over the child's

thighs.

PEUGEOT recommends the use of

a booster seat which has a back, fi t-

ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder

level.

Do not use the passenger's "AIRWAVE"

system if a child seat is installed on the

front seat.

DRIVING

When parking on a slope, direct

your wheels against the pavement,

apply the parking brake and en-

gage a gear.

PARKING BRAKE

Applying
 Pull the parking brake lever fully up

to immobilise your vehicle.

When the vehicle is being driv-

en, if this warning lamp and the

STOP warning lamp come on,

accompanied by an audible sig-

nal and a message on the multifunction

screen, this indicates that the parking

brake is still on or has not been properly

released.

Releasing
 Pull the parking brake lever gently,

press the release button then lower

the lever fully.

6-SPEED MANUAL GEARBOX

As a safety precaution and to facili-

tate starting of the engine:

-

always select neutral,

-

press the clutch pedal.

Only engage reverse gear when

the vehicle is stationary with the

engine at idle.

DRIVING

GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR

System which reduces fuel consump-

tion by advising the driver to change up.

Operation

Depending on the driving situation and

your vehicle's equipment, the system

may advise you to skip one (or more)

gear(s). You can follow this instruc-

tion without engaging the intermediate

gears.

The gear engagement recommenda-

tions must not be considered compulso-

ry. In fact, the confi guration of the road,

the amount of traffi c and safety remain

determining factors when choosing the

best gear. Therefore, the driver remains

responsible for deciding whether or not

to follow the advice given by the system.

This function cannot be deactivated.

The information appears in the instru-

ment panel in the form of an arrow.

The system adapts its gear change

recommendation according to the

driving conditions (slope, load, ...) and

the demands of the driver (power, ac-

celeration, braking, ...).

The system never suggests:

- engaging fi rst gear,

-

engaging reverse gear,

-

engaging a lower gear.

Example:

-

You are in third gear.

- You press the accelerator pedal.

- The system may suggest that you

engage a higher gear.

With an automatic gearbox, the

system is only active in manual

mode.

On vehicle fi tted with a manual

gearbox, the arrow may be ac-

companied by the gear recom-

mended.

panel.

For maximum acceleration without

touching the lever, press the accelera-

tor pedal down fully (kick down). The

gearbox changes down automatically

or maintains the gear selected until the

maximum engine speed is reached.

On braking, the gearbox changes down

automatically to provide effi cient engine

braking.

If you release the accelerator sharply,

the gearbox will not change to a higher

gear for safety reasons.

M (manual) at

any time.

When the vehicle is stationary or mov-

ing very slowly, the gearbox selects

gear

M1 automatically.

The sport and snow programmes do not

operate in manual mode.

Invalid value during manual

operation

This symbol is displayed if a

gear is not engaged correctly

(selector between two posi-

tions).

Stopping the vehicle

Before switching off the engine, you

can engage position

P or N to place the

gearbox in neutral.

In both cases, apply the parking brake

to immobilise the vehicle.

Operating fault

There is a risk of damage to the

gearbox:

- if you press the accelerator and

brake pedals at the same time,

- if you force the lever from posi-

tion

P to another position when

the battery is fl at.

To reduce fuel consumption during

a long period stationary with the

engine running (traffi c jam, etc.),

place the gear lever in position

N

and apply the parking brake.

If the lever is not in position

P ,

when the driver's door is opened

or approximately 45 seconds after

the ignition is switched off, there is

an audible signal is heard accom-

panied by a message.

 Return the lever to position

P ;

the audible signal stops and the

message disappears.

When the ignition is on, the il-

lumination of this warning lamp,

accompanied by an audible

signal and a message in the

screen, indicates a gearbox malfunction.

In this case, the gearbox switches

to emergency mode and is locked in

3rd gear. You may feel a substantial

knock when changing from

P to R and

from

N to R . This will not cause any

damage to the gearbox.

Do not exceed a speed of 60 mph

(100 km/h), local speed restrictions per-

mitting.

DRIVING

STOP & START

The Stop & Start system puts the en-

gine temporarily into standby - STOP

mode - during stops in the traffi c (red

lights, traffi c jams, etc...). The engine

restarts automatically - START mode -

as soon as you want to move off. The

restart takes place instantly, quickly and

silently.

Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start

system reduces fuel consumption, ex-

haust emissions and the noise level

when stationary.

Operation

Going into engine STOP mode

The

"ECO" warning lamp comes

on in the instrument panel and the

engine goes into standby:

-

with a manual gearbox , at speeds

below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you

put the gear lever into neutral, and

you release the clutch pedal.

If your vehicle is fi tted with

it, a time counter calculates

the sum of the periods in

STOP mode during a jour-

ney. It rests itself to zero ev-

ery time the ignition is switched on with

the key.

For your comfort when parking,

STOP mode is not available for a

few seconds after coming out of

reverse gear.

STOP mode does not affect the

functionality of the vehicle, such

as braking, power steering, for ex-

ample.

Never refuel with the engine in

STOP mode; you must switch off

the ignition with the key.

Special cases: STOP mode

unavailable
STOP mode is not invoked when:

-

the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,

- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph

(10 km/h) since the last engine start

using the key,

- the engine is needed to maintain a

comfortable temperature in the pas-

senger compartment,

-

demisting is active,

-

some special conditions (battery

charge, engine temperature, brak-

ing assistance, ambient tempera-

ture...) where the engine is needed

to assure control of a system.

The

"ECO" warning lamp fl ash-

es for a few seconds, then goes

off.

This operation is perfectly normal.

In STOP mode of Stop & Start, the

"AIRWAVE" system stops working.

DRIVING

Going into engine START mode

The

"ECO" warning lamp goes

off and the engine starts:

-

with a manual gearbox , when you

fully depress the clutch pedal.

Special cases: START invoked

automatically

For your safety and comfort, START

mode is invoked automatically when:

-

you open the driver's door,

- you unfasten the driver's seat belt,

- the speed of the vehicle exceeds

15 mph (25 km/h) with a manual

gearbox,

-

some special conditions (battery

charge, engine temperature, brak-

ing assistance, ambient tempera-

ture...) where the engine is needed

to assure control of a system.

The

"ECO" warning lamp fl ash-

es, then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.

Deactivation

If the system has been deactivated

in STOP mode, the engine restarts

immediately.

At any time, press the

"ECO

OFF" switch to deactivate the system.

This is confi rmed by the switch warn-

ing lamp coming on accompanied by a

message in the screen.

Reactivation

Press the

"ECO OFF" switch again.

The system is active again; this is con-

fi rmed by the switch warning lamp go-

ing off, accompanied by a message in

the screen.

The system is reactivated auto-

matically at every new start using

the key.

With a manual gearbox in STOP

mode, if a gear is engaged without

fully depressing the clutch pedal, a

message is displayed asking you

to depress the clutch pedal to re-

start the engine.

DRIVING

Operating fault

In the event of a malfunction with the

system, the

"ECO OFF" switch warning

lamp fl ashes, then comes on continu-

ously.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer

or a qualifi ed workshop.

In the event of a fault in STOP mode,

the vehicle may stall. It is then neces-

sary to switch off the ignition and start

the engine again using the key.

Maintenance

Before working under the bonnet,

deactivate the Stop & Start system

to avoid any risk of injury result-

ing from automatic operation of

START mode.

This system requires a battery with a

special specifi cation and technology

(reference numbers available from a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-

shop).

Fitting a battery not listed by

PEUGEOT introduces the risk of mal-

function of the system.

The Stop & Start system makes

use of advanced technology. All

work on this battery must be done

by a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-

fi ed workshop.

DRIVING

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION

DETECTION

A pressure sensor is located in the

valve of a each of these tyres.

The system triggers an alert if a drop

in pressure is detected in one or more

tyres.

This system does not avoid the

need to check the tyre pressures

regularly and before a long journey.

Driving with under-infl ated tyres

adversely affects road holding,

extends braking distances and

causes premature tyre wear, par-

ticularly under arduous conditions

(vehicle loaded, high speed, long

journey).

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.

The tyre under-infl ation detection

system is an aid to driving which

does not replace the need for the

driver to be vigilant or to drive re-

sponsibly.

Driving with under-infl ated tyres in-

creases fuel consumption.

The tyre pressures for your vehicle

can be found on the tyre pressure

label (see the "Identifi cation mark-

ings" section).

The tyre pressures must be

checked when the tyres cold (vehi-

cle stopped for 1 hour or after driv-

ing for less then 6 miles (10 km) at

moderate speed). Otherwise, add

0.3 bar to the values indicated on

the label.

Spare wheel
Don't forget to also check the tyre

pressure of the spare wheel.

If your vehicle has an alloy spare

wheel, this also has a sensor.

If your vehicle has a steel spare

wheel, this may be fi tted with a

sensor * . Check whether a sensor

is fi tted to a steel wheel.

123

DRIVING

The alert is given by the fi xed il-

lumination of this warning lamp,

accompanied by an audible signal

and the display of a message.

Operating fault

Under-inflation alert

The loss of pressure detected does

not always lead to visible deforma-

tion of the tyre. Do not rely on just

a visual check.

The alert is maintained until the

tyre or tyres concerned is reinfl at-

ed, repaired or replaced.

The fl ashing and then fi xed il-

lumination of this warning lamp

accompanied by the illumination

of the service warning lamp in-

dicates a fault with the system.

This alert is also displayed when

one or more wheels is not fi tted

with a sensor (steel spare wheel *

or other wheels fi tted with winter

tyres).

Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualifi ed workshop to have the

system checked or, following the

repair of a puncture, to have the

original wheel, equipped with a

sensor, refi tted.

In this case, monitoring of the tyre pres-

sures is not assured.

 Reduce speed, avoid sudden steer-

ing movements or harsh brake ap-

plications.

 Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.

 In the event of a puncture, use the

temporary puncture repair kit or the

spare wheel (according to equip-

ment),

or

 if you have a compressor, the one in

the temporary puncture repair kit for

example, check the four tyre pres-

sures when cold,

or

 if it is not possible to check the tyre

pressures at the time, drive carefully

at reduced speed.

* Depending on version.

In the event of a problem on one of the

tyres, a symbol or a message is dis-

played, depending on equipment, to

identify it.

DRIVING

SPEED LIMITER

System which prevents the vehicle from

exceeding the speed programmed by

the driver.

When the programmed speed limit is

reached, pressing the accelerator pedal

no longer has any effect.

The speed limiter is

switched on man-

ually: it requires a programmed speed

of at least 20 mph (30 km/h).

The speed limiter is

switched off by

manual operation of the control.

The programmed speed can be ex-

ceeded temporarily by pressing the ac-

celerator fi rmly.

To return to the programmed speed,

simply slow down to a speed below the

programmed speed.

The programmed speed remains in the

memory when the ignition is switched off.

The speed limiter cannot, in any cir-

cumstances, replace the need to re-

spect speed limits, nor can it replace

the need for vigilance and responsi-

bility on the part of the driver.

Exceeding the programmed speed

Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the programmed

speed will not have any effect unless you press the pedal

fi rmly past the point of resistance .

The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the pro-

grammed speed, which is still displayed, fl ashes.

Returning to the programmed speed, by means of intention-

al or unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically

cancels the fl ashing of the programmed speed.

Return to normal driving

 Turn wheel

1 to the "0" position: the speed limiter mode

is deselected.

Operating fault

In the event of a speed limiter malfunc-

tion, the speed is cleared resulting in

fl ashing of the dashes.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer

or a qualifi ed workshop.

On a steep descent or in the event

of sharp acceleration, the speed

limiter will not be able to prevent

the vehicle from exceeding the pro-

grammed speed.

To avoid any risk of jamming of the

pedals:

-

ensure that the mat is posi-

tioned correctly,

- do not fi t one mat on top of an-

other.

DRIVING

CRUISE CONTROL

System which automatically maintains

the speed of the vehicle at the value

programmed by the driver, without any

action on the accelerator pedal.

The cruise control is

switched on

manually: it requires a minimum vehicle

speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) and the en-

gagement of:

- fourth gear on a manual gearbox,

- second gear on an automatic gear-

box, in sequential driving mode,

-

position

D on an automatic gearbox.

The cruise control is

switched off man-

ually or by pressing the brake or clutch

pedal or on triggering of the DSC/ASR

systems for safety reasons.

It is possible to exceed the programmed

speed temporarily by pressing the ac-

celerator pedal.
