Driving

Stop & Start

The Stop & Start system puts the engine

temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during

stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or

other...). The engine restarts automatically -

START mode - as soon as you want to move

off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly

and silently.

-

with an automatic gearbox, vehicle

stationary, when you press the brake pedal

or you put the gear selector in position N.

Special cases: STOP mode not

available

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,

If your vehicle is fitted with the system,

a time counter calculates the sum of the

periods in STOP mode during a journey.

It rests itself to zero every time the

ignition is switched on with the key.

Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start system

reduces fuel consumption and exhaust

emissions as well as the noise level when

stationary.

-

the vehicle is stopped on a steep slope (up

or down),

the electric parking brake is applied or

being applied,

the engine is needed to maintain a

comfortable temperature in the passenger

compartment,

For your comfort, during parking

manoeuvres, 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 for

example, braking, power steering...

Operation

Going into engine STOP mode

-

demisting is active,

some special conditions (battery charge,

engine temperature, braking assistance,

ambient temperature...) where the engine is

needed to assure control of a system.

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), or vehicle stationary

with the e-THP 165 version, when you put

the gear lever into neutral and release the

clutch pedal,

In this case, the "ECO" warning lamp

flashes for a few seconds then goes

off.

Never refuel with the engine in STOP

mode; you must switch off the ignition

with the key.

with an electronic gearbox, at speeds

below 4 mph (6 km/h), when you press the

brake pedal or you put the gear selector in

position N,

This operation is perfectly normal.

Deactivation

Going into engine START mode

Special cases: START invoked

automatically

The "ECO" warning lamp goes off

START mode is invoked automatically when:

and the engine starts automatically:

-

the driver's door is open,

the driver's seat belt is not fastened,

the speed of the vehicle exceeds 18 mph

(25 km/h) with a manual gearbox, (2 mph

(3 km/h) with the THP 165 version), 7 mph

(11 km/h) with an electronic gearbox or

2 mph (3 km/h) with an automatic gearbox,

the electric parking brake is being applied,

some special conditions (battery charge,

engine temperature, braking assistance,

ambient temperature...) where the engine is

needed for control of a system.

-

with a manual gearbox, when you fully

depress the clutch pedal,

with an electronic gearbox:

● gear selector in position A or M, when

you release the brake pedal,

● or gear selector in position N and brake

pedal released, when you put the gear

selector in position A or M,

-

At any time, press the "ECO OFF" switch to

deactivate the system.

● or when you engage reverse gear.

with an automatic gearbox:

This is confirmed by the switch warning lamp

coming on accompanied by a message in the

screen.

-

● gear selector in position D or M, when

you release the brake pedal,

● or gear selector in position N and brake

pedal released, when you put the gear

selector in position D or M,

If the system has been deactivated

in STOP mode, the engine restarts

immediately.

● or when you engage reverse gear.

In this case the "ECO" warning lamp

flashes for a few seconds, then goes

off.

This operation is perfectly normal.

Reactivation

Operating fault

Maintenance

Press the "ECO OFF" switch again.

The system is active again; this is confirmed

by the switch warning lamp going off and a

message in the screen.

Before doing anything under the

bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start

system to avoid any risk of injury

resulting from automatic operation of

START mode.

This system requires a 12 V battery with a

special specification and technology (reference

numbers available from PEUGEOT dealers).

Fitting a battery not listed by

PEUGEOT introduces the risk of malfunction of

the system.

The system is reactivated automatically

at every new start using the key.

To charge the battery, use a 12 V charger and

observe the polarity.

In the event of a fault with the system, the

"ECO OFF" switch warning lamp flashes then

comes on continuously.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualified workshop.

In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the

vehicle may stall: all the instrument panel

warning lamps come on. It is then necessary

to switch off the ignition and start the engine

again using the key.

The Stop & Start system makes use of

advanced technology. For any work on

the system go to a qualified workshop

with the skills and equipment required,

which a PEUGEOT dealer is able to

provide.

When driving on flooded roads or crossing

a ford, switch off the Stop & Start and drive

at walking speed.

Tyre under-inﬂation detection

This system does not avoid the need

The tyre pressures for your vehicle can

be found on the tyre pressure label (see

the "Identification markings" section).

The tyre pressures must be checked

when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped

for 1 hour or after driving for less then

6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).

Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the values

indicated on the label.

to check the tyre pressures regularly

(including the spare wheel) and before

a long journey.

Driving with under-inflated tyres

adversely affects road holding,

extends braking distances and causes

premature tyre wear, particularly 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.

A pressure sensor is located in the valve of a

each tyres (except the spare wheel).

The system triggers an alert if a drop in

pressure is detected in one or more tyres.

Driving with under-inflated tyres

increases fuel consumption.

The tyre under-inflation detection

system is an aid to driving which does

not replace the need for the driver to be

vigilant or to drive responsibly.

equipment, the display of a message.

illumination of the under-inflation

warning lamp accompanied by the

illumination of the "service" warning

lamp indicates a fault with the system.

F

If you have a compressor (the one in the

temporary puncture repair kit for example),

check the four tyre pressures when cold.

If it is not possible to check the tyre

pressures at the time, drive carefully at

reduced speed.

This alert is also displayed when one or

more wheels is not fitted with a sensor

(for example, a space-saver or steel

spare wheel).

or

F

In the event of a puncture, use the

temporary puncture repair kit or the spare

wheel (according to equipment).

In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is

not assured.

8

In the event of a problem on one of the tyres,

the symbol or the message appears, according

to equipment, to identify it.

The alert is maintained until the tyre or

tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired

or replaced.

The spare wheel (space-saver type or a

steel rim) does not have a sensor.

Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified

workshop to have the system checked

or, following the repair of a puncture, to

have the original wheel, equipped with a

sensor, refitted.

The loss of pressure detected does not

always lead to visible deformation of the

tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.
