'PORSCHE TIPTRONIC

GEARBOX

The four speed automatic gearbox
offers a choice between the comfort
of integral automatic operation, en-
hanced by a sport and a snow pro-
gramme, or manual gear changing.

Gear selection gate

F Move the lever in the gate to

select a position.
The indicator light corresponding
to the position selected appears
on the instrument panel screen.

Park: to immobilise the vehicle and
to start the engine, with the hand-
brake on or off.

Reverse: to reverse (select this po-
sition with the vehicle stationary, en-
gine at idle).

Neutral: to start the engine and to
park, with the handbrake on.
If position N is inadvertently engaged
while driving, allow the engine to re-
turn to idle before engaging position
D to accelerate.

Drive: for driving in automatic mode.

Manual: for selection of gears.

S : sport programme.

T : snow programme.

Moving Off

With the engine running, to move off
from position P:
F it is essential to press the

brake pedal to exit position P,

F select position R, D or M, then

gradually release the pressure
on the brake pedal; the vehicle
moves off immediately.

You can also move off from position N:
F release the handbrake, with your

foot on the brake,

F select position R, D or M, then

gradually release the pressure
on the brake pedal; the vehicle
moves off immediately.

Starting the engine

F turn the ignition key to the Start

position.

WARNING
When the engine is at idle, brakes not
applied, if position R, D or M is se-
lected, the vehicle moves even with-
out the accelerator being pressed.
For this reason, do not leave chil-
dren unsupervised inside the ve-
hicle, with the engine running.
When maintenance operations need
to be carried out with the engine run-
ning, apply the handbrake and select
position P.

75

DRIVING -

Automatic operation

Automatic changing of the four
gears:
F select position D in the gate.
The gearbox always selects the most
suitable gear according to the follow-
ing parameters:
- the road proile,
-

the vehicle load.

The gearbox is then operating in
auto-adaptive mode, without any ac-
tion on your part.

If you take your foot off the accel-
erator suddenly, the gearbox will not
change to a higher gear for reasons
of safety.

Manual operation

Manual changing of the four gears :
F select position M in the gate,
F push the lever to the + sign to

change to a higher gear,

F pull the lever to the - sign to

change to a lower gear.

You can change from position D
(driving in automatic mode) to posi-
tion M (driving in manual mode) at
any time.

WARNING
Never select position N when the ve-
hicle is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless
the vehicle is stationary.
Never change between positions to op-
timise braking on a slippery surface.

Notes
For immediate maximum accelera-
tion without touching the gear lever,
press the accelerator pedal down as
far as it will go (kickdown). The gear-
box will automatically change down
or maintain the gear selected until
maximum engine speed is reached.
When the brake is applied, the gear-
box will automatically change down

in order to provide eficient engine

braking.

Sport and snow programmes

In addition to the auto-adaptive pro-
gramme, there are two special pro-
grammes.
The programme is displayed on the
instrument panel screen.

Sport programme

F Press button S once the engine

has been started.

The gearbox automatically favours
sporty driving and more dynamic ac-
celeration.

Snow programme

and drive when traction is poor.
F Press button T once the engine

has been started.

The gearbox adapts to driving on
slippery roads.

Note: you can return to the auto-
adaptive programme at any time.

F Press button S or T again to

switch off the programme you
are in.

Notes
It is only possible to change from one
gear to another if the vehicle speed
and engine speed permit. If they do
not, the vehicle will operate tempo-
rarily in automatic mode.
When the vehicle is stationary or
moving very slowly, the gearbox au-
tomatically selects gear M1.
Programmes S (sport) and T (snow)
do not operate in manual mode.

HANDBRAKE

Operating abnormality

Any operating abnormality is indi-
cated by an audible signal, accom-
panied by the message 'Automatic
gear fault' on the multi-function dis-
play, by a "-"

and lashing of the

Sport and Snow warning lights on the
instrument panel display.
In this situation the gearbox oper-
ates in downgrade mode (locked in
3rd gear). You may feel a substan-
tial knock when changing from P to
R and from N to R (this will not cause
any damage to the gearbox).
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h),
respecting local speed limits.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

If the battery is lat and the

lever is in position P, it will
be impossible to change
to another position.

In particular, do not force the lever
or there is a risk the gearbox may
be damaged.

When the vehicle is be-
ing driven, illumination of
this warning light and of the
STOP warning light, accom-
panied by an audible signal

and a message on the multifunction
display, indicates that the handbrake
is still on or has not been properly
released.

When parking on a slope,
direct your wheels to im-
mobilise them against the
pavement, pull the hand-
brake and engage a gear.

Applying
Pull the handbrake to immobilise
your vehicle.

Releasing
Pull on the handle and press the but-
ton to release the handbrake.
