Deactivating automatic operation

In some situations, such as very cold weather
or towing (caravan, recovery), it may be
necessary to deactivate automatic operation of
the system.
F Start the engine.
F Apply the parking brake with the control

lever, if it is released.

F Take your foot off the brake pedal.
F Push and hold the control lever in the

release direction for at least 10 seconds
and no more than 15 seconds.

F  Release the control lever.
F  Press and hold the brake pedal.
F  Pull the control lever in the apply direction

for 2 seconds.

Deactivation of the automatic functions
is confirmed by illumination of this
indicator lamp in the instrument panel.

F Release the control lever and the brake

pedal.

From this point, the parking brake can only
be applied and released manually using the
control lever.

Repeat this procedure to reactivate automatic
operation.
Reactivation of automatic operation is
confirmed by the indicator lamp in the
instrument panel going off.

Emergency braking

The emergency braking should only be
used in an exceptional situation.

In the event of a failure of the main service
brake or in an exceptional situation (e.g. driver
taken ill, under instruction, etc.), a continuous
pull on the control lever will brake the vehicle.
Braking takes place while the control lever is
being pulled. It is interrupted if the control lever
is released.
The ABS and DSC systems provide stability of
the vehicle during emergency braking.
If the emergency braking malfunctions, the
message "Parking brake control faulty" will be
displayed in the instrument panel.

If the ABS and DSC systems malfunction,
signalled by the illumination of one or both
warning lamps in the instrument panel, then
stability of the vehicle is no longer guaranteed.
In this event, stability must be assured by the
driver by repeating alternate "pull-release"
actions on the control lever until the vehicle is
immobilised.

Gear shift indicator*

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 instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
The gear engagement recommendations must
not be considered compulsory. In fact, the
configuration of the road, the amount of traffic
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.

You press the accelerator pedal.

Example:
-

You are in third gear.

The system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear.

The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow.

System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the most appropriate gear.

With an automatic gearbox, the system
is only active in manual mode.

* Depending on engine.

On vehicle fitted with a manual gearbox,
the arrow may be accompanied by the
gear recommended.

The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (slope, load, ...) and
the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking, ...).
The system never suggests:
-

engaging first gear,

engaging reverse gear.

Operation

On BlueHDi Diesel 135 and 150 versions with
manual gearbox, in certain driving conditions
the system may suggest changing into neutral
so that the engine can go into standby (STOP
