SAFETY

              For the airbags to be fully 

effective, observe the 

following safety rules: 
 Sit in a normal upright position. 
 Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt. 
 Do not leave anything between 

the occupants and the airbags 

(a child, pet, object...). This could 

hamper the operation of the air-

bags or injure the occupants. 

   Lateral airbags 
 Use only approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment the 

lateral airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your 

vehicle, you can contact a PEUGEOT dealer (see "Practical information - § 

Accessories"). 
 Do not fi x or attach anything to the seat backs (clothing...). This could cause 

injury to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is deployed. 
 Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.  

 After an accident or if the vehicle has 

been stolen or broken into, have the 

airbag systems checked. 
 All work on the airbag system must 

be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer 

or a qualifi ed workshop. 

 Even if all of the precautions men-

tioned are observed, a risk of injury 

or of minor burns to the head, chest 

or arms when an airbag is deployed 

cannot be ruled out. The bag in-

fl ates almost instantly (within a few 

milliseconds) then defl ates  within 

the same time discharging the hot 

gas via openings provided for this 

purpose.  

  Front airbags 
 Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on 

the centre part of the wheel. 
 Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard. 
 If possible, do not smoke as deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the 

risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe. 
 Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.   

  Curtain airbags 
 Do not fi x or attach anything to the roof. This could cause injury to the head if 

the curtain airbag is deployed. 
 If fi tted on your vehicle, do not remove the grab handles installed on the roof, 

they play a part in securing the curtain airbags.

CVT GEARBOX

CVT GEA

 The six-speed automatic gearbox of-

fers a choice between the comfort of 

automatic regulation or the pleasure of 

manual gear changing. 

 This gearbox has two driving modes: 
   -   an automated mode for automatic 

control of the gears by the gearbox 

and therefore without any action on 

the part of the driver, 

  -   a sequential mode for manual 

changing of the gears by the driver 

using the steering mounted controls 

or the gear lever.  

 It consists of the following controls: 
   -   a gear lever  1  on the centre console 

for selecting the driving mode, reverse 

gear and neutral or for changing gear 

in sequential mode,

DRIVING

  Stopping - Starting on a slope 

  Do not use the accelerator pedal to 

immobilise the vehicle on a slope, 

apply the parking brake instead.  
 When starting on a slope, accelerate 

gradually while releasing the parking 

brake.  

  Switching to sequential mode 

 Once you have moved off, you can 

switch to sequential mode by selecting 

position  +/- . 
  "D"  disappears and the gears engaged 

appear in succession in the instrument 

panel screen. 
 The gear change requests are only car-

ried out if the engine speed permits it. 
 Take your foot off the accelerator pedal 

gently to engage the gear. 

  Switching to automated mode 

  Automated mode 
 After using the sequential mode, you 

can return to the automated mode by 

selecting position  D . 
  "D"  appears in the instrument panel 

screen. 
 The gearbox then operates in auto-active 

mode, without any action on the part of 

the driver. 
 It continuously selects the gear most 

suited to the conditions of: 
   -  driving 

style, 

  -  road 

characteristics, 

  -  vehicle 

load. 

 

 To optimise driving comfort and obtain 

the most suitable gear, avoid sharp vari-

ations in the pressure on the accelerator 

pedal.  

  Auto sequential mode 
 In the automated mode, you can take 

over control temporarily at any time us-

ing the steering mounted controls. 
 The use of these controls permits man-

ual selection of the gears in situations 

which require a faster changedown than 

that offered in automated mode (arrival 

at a roundabout, exit from a car park 

with a steep gradient, overtaking...). 

  Stopping the vehicle 

 Before switching off the engine, you can: 
   -   move to position  

N  to leave the 

gearbox in neutral. 

  -   leave a gear engaged, such as fi rst 

or reverse.  

 In both cases, you must apply the parking 

brake to immobilise the vehicle.  

  Operating anomaly 

 With the ignition on, if the message  "Slow 

down"  or  "Maintenance required"  ap-

pears in the multifunction screen, this in-

dicates a gearbox malfunction. 
 When a message is displayed, carry 

out the following operations: 
   -   slow down and stop your vehicle in 

a safe place, 

  -   place the lever in position  N  and let 

the engine run, 

  -  

open the bonnet to allow the engine 

to cool.  

 If the message disappears for a long 

period, you can set off again. 
 If the message remains displayed or ap-

pears frequently, contact a PEUGEOT 

dealer or a qualifi ed  workshop  without 

delay.  

  Press the brake pedal fi rmly 

while starting the engine.

reverse (position  R ). 
 Release the parking brake. 
 Release the brake pedal then accelerate. 
  "D"  or  "1"  or  "R"  appear in the instru-

ment panel screen.  

 The gearbox engages the gear re-

quested if the engine speed permits it. 

The gear engaged appears. 
 To return to the automated mode, press 

the back of the  "+/OFF"  control for ap-

proximately 2 seconds.   

 At low speeds, when approaching a 

stop or traffi c lights for example, the 

gearbox changes down to fi rst gear au-

tomatically.

DCS GEARBOX 

DCS GEA

 The six-speed electronically controlled 

gearbox offers a choice between the 

comfort of automatic regulation or the 

pleasure of manual gear changing. 
 This gearbox has three driving modes: 
   -  a 

 

manual  mode for changing of the 

gears by the driver using the steering 

mounted controls or the gear lever, 

  -  a 

Normal " automatic mode for eco-

nomical control of the gears (everyday 

use), 

  -  a 

Sport " automatic mode which 

permits a more dynamic style of 

driving, with improved acceleration 

and optimised engine braking.

the most suitable gear, avoid sharp vari-

ations in the pressure on the accelerator 

pedal.  

  "Temporary" manual mode 
 In automatic mode, you can take con-

trol temporarily at any time using the 

steering mounted controls. 
 The use of these controls permits man-

ual selection of the gears in situations 

which require a faster change down than 

that offered in automatic mode (arrival at

 Push the thumbwheel  A  rearward once.   

  Stopping the vehicle 

 Before switching off the engine, you 

must engage position  P  or  N  to place 

the gearbox in neutral. 
 You must apply the parking brake to im-

mobilise the vehicle. 
 The gear lever must be in position  P  to 

remove the ignition key.  

  Hill start assist 

 To assist you when starting on a gradi-

ent, your vehicle is fi tted with a system 

which immobilises it briefl y (approximate-

ly 2 seconds), the time required to move 

your foot from the brake pedal to the 

accelerator pedal. This function is only 

active when the vehicle has been com-

pletely immobilised with your foot on the 

brake pedal and on certain gradients. 
  Do not get out of the vehicle during 

the hill start assist temporary immo-

bilisation phase.  
 To immobilise the vehicle on a gradient 

for a longer period, you must use the 

parking brake, not the accelerator. 
 When starting on a gradient, accelerate 

gradually while releasing the parking 

brake.

DRIVING

  Operating fault 

  Reverse gear 
 Flashing of the indicator  R  in the instru-

ment panel screen, accompanied by an 

audible signal, indicates a malfunction 

on engaging the gear: 
 Press the brake pedal, position the gear 

lever in position  N  and engage reverse 

gear again.   

 With the ignition on, if this warning light 

comes on, accompanied by vibration 

in the pedals and the message  "Main-

tenance required"  on the instrument 

panel display, this indicates a gearbox 

malfunction. 

 If the message is displayed, carry out 

the following operations: 
   -   slow down and stop your vehicle in 

a safe place, 

  -   place the lever in position  P  or  N , 

apply the parking brake and let the 

engine run, 

  -  

open the bonnet to allow the engine 

to cool.  

 If the message disappears for a long 

period, you can set off again. 
 If the message remains displayed or ap-

pears frequently, contact a PEUGEOT 

dealer or a qualifi ed workshop without 

delay. 
  Overheating of the engine may re-

sult in unwanted declutching of the 

gearbox.

DRIVING

FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM

FOUR WH

WITH ELECTRONIC CONTROL 

WITH E

  4WD AUTO (position 1) 
 The vehicle operates with four wheel 

drive and provides optimum traction re-

gardless of the level of grip. 
 This is the vehicle's normal and regular 

operating mode, the distribution of the 

torque between the front and rear axles 

is controlled automatically. 
 The distribution favours the front wheels, 

the transfer of torque to the rear wheels 

is managed electronically by the control 

unit in relation to the level of grip, so 

providing optimum road holding.  

 Three transmission modes are avail-

able and can be selected manually by 

the driver in accordance with his re-

quirements. 
 You can change transmission mode 

when stationary or while driving at a 

speed  below 60 mph (100 km/h) . 
 The transmission mode can be selected 

by turning the control  A . 

  Display in the instrument panel 

 The transmission mode is displayed 

in the form of an intermittent display in 

the instrument panel screen when the 

transmission mode is selected. 

  Selecting the transmission 

mode 

 The selection of this mode is 

recommended when the level of 

grip permits.   

  2WD (position 3) 
 The vehicle operates with front two 

wheel drive. 
 This mode corresponds to use on a tar-

macked road on which the driver con-

siders that there is no risk of loss of grip 

(dry road). 

  4WD LOCK (position 2) 
 The vehicle operates with four wheel 

drive in this mode also. 
 It is recommended when grip is particularly 

poor or diffi cult (sand, mud, slopes, ...).  

 System which permits the selection of 

a transmission mode in relation to the 

driving conditions. 

7

DRIVING

  Operating faults 

 If the selected transmission mode display 

fl ashes, the vehicle switches automati-

cally to front  "2WD"  transmission mode. 
 It is then no longer possible to select the 

transmission mode using the control  A . 

 Do not subject the vehicle to ex-

cessive conditions while driving. 
 As the engine torque is applied 

to all four wheels, the condition 

of the tyres has a considerable 

impact on the performance of 

the vehicle. 
 Ensure that all four tyres are in 

good condition. 
 Avoid driving the vehicle in 

sandy or muddy areas or in 

other areas in which the wheels 

could spin. 
 Spinning the wheels places the 

transmission components under 

pressure and could cause a seri-

ous malfunction. 
 Do not drive the vehicle through 

deep water. 
 Avoid driving over excessively 

uneven terrain (risk of scraping 

under the body or of grounding 

on crossing a bridge). 

  Have your vehicle towed on a 

fl atbed.  
 The vehicle must not be towed 

with the front or rear wheels on 

the ground even if it is in front 

"2WD" (2 wheel drive) mode.   

 If the message "SLOW DOWN" is dis-

played on the instrument panel, let the 

transmission cool down then wait for the 

display to clear before setting off again. 

 If "4WD" and "LOCK" are displayed 

alternately and if "MAINTENANCE 

REQUIRED" is displayed in the instru-

ment panel, the system has failed and 

the safety system has been activated. 
 Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-

fi ed workshop without delay.
