Driving -> Hill start assist for Your Peugeot 5008 SUV Second Generation (2017-2023)

Driving  
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle  
stationary, the vehicle is held for a short time  
when you release the brake pedal:  
– provided you are in first gear or neutral with a  
manual gearbox.  
N: neutral.  
start, while you transfer your foot from the brake  
pedal to the accelerator pedal.  
This system is only active when:  
– The vehicle is completely stationary, with your  
foot on the brake pedal.  
6
D1 to D8: automatic forward gear.  
B1 to B8: automatic forward gear with  
regenerative braking function activated.  
In all-electric driving, the gear engaged is not  
indicated.  
The state of the gearbox remains displayed in  
the instrument panel for a few seconds after  
switching off the ignition.  
– Certain slope conditions are met.  
– The driver’s door is closed.  
– provided you are in mode D or M with an  
automatic gearbox.  
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being  
held temporarily by hill start assist.  
If someone needs to get out of the vehicle  
with the engine running, apply the parking  
brake manually. After that, ensure that the  
parking brake indicator lamp and the indicator  
lamp P in the electric parking brake control  
lever are on fixed.  
Regenerative braking  
The regenerative braking function emulates  
engine braking, slowing the vehicle with no need  
to depress the brake pedal. When the driver  
releases the accelerator pedal, the vehicle slows  
down more quickly and recharges the battery.  
► From mode D/B, moving the push selector  
backwards activates/deactivates the function.  
The D on the instrument panel is replaced with  
a B.  
On a descending slope, with the vehicle  
stationary and reverse gear engaged, the  
vehicle is held for a short time when you  
release the brake pedal.  
The hill start assist function cannot be  
deactivated. However, use of the parking  
brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts its  
operation.  
The state of the function is not saved when the  
ignition is switched off.  
Malfunction  
Operation  
The driver must always be ready to use  
the brake pedal: in certain situations (e.g.  
full battery, extreme temperatures), the  
regenerative braking level may be temporarily  
limited and deceleration may be reduced.  
These warning lamps come on in  
the event of a malfunction.  
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop to have the system checked.  
Dynamic pack  
This pack governs the following elements:  
– Acoustic ambience of the engine.  
– Power steering.  
Hill start assist  
This system keeps your vehicle briefly stationary  
(for approximately 2 seconds) when making a hill  
125  
Driving  
– Acceleration.  
– Handling gear changes with the automatic  
gearbox.  
– Display on the instrument panel of information  
about the dynamic parameters of the vehicle  
("PERSONAL" mode).  
The vehicle automatically changes to HYBRID  
mode.  
The lighting of a blue LED under the interior  
rear view mirror, visible from outside the vehicle,  
confirms driving in ELECTRIC mode.  
Driving modes  
The number and type of driving modes available  
depend on the vehicle’s engine and equipment.  
Driving modes are selected using the following  
control:  
The lighting of the LED can be  
deactivated by inserting the tip of a paper  
clip type accessory into the hole under the  
mirror.  
Activation/Deactivation  
► Press this button; the orange indicator  
lamp in the button comes on to confirm  
SPORT  
activation of the function.  
Conditions of activation  
– Adequate battery charge level. Charging  
the vehicle after each drive is therefore  
recommended. The ELECTRIC mode is  
available as long as there is power left in the  
battery.  
– Exterior temperature between 0°C and 45°C.  
Manually exiting the mode  
– Fully depress the accelerator pedal.  
– Select another mode.  
If the orange indicator lamp flashes,  
activation is not available (e.g. if Park  
Assist is selected).  
If the indicator lamp continues flashing for a  
long time, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a  
qualified workshop.  
Pressing the control displays the modes on the  
instrument panel.  
When the message disappears, the selected  
mode is activated and remains indicated on the  
instrument panel (except NORMAL mode).  
Displays  
To show this information on the instrument panel,  
select the “PERSONAL” mode and then the type  
of information required.  
In case of non-use of the vehicle for a  
long period (several months), a restart of  
the petrol engine may occur even if the  
battery is charged.  
With hybrid engine  
Each time the ignition is switched on, ELECTRIC  
mode is selected by default.  
This telemetry information (power output,  
turbocharger pressure, torque,  
longitudinal and lateral acceleration, etc.) is  
given for information purposes only.  
HYBRID  
ELECTRIC  
Optimises the fuel consumption of the vehicle  
by managing the alternating or simultaneous  
operation of the two types of engine,  
according to road conditions and driving style.  
In HYBRID mode, it is possible to drive in  
100% electric mode if the battery charge level  
Allows 100% electric driving. The maximum  
speed is approximately 84 mph (135 km/h).  
When starting the vehicle, if the conditions do not  
allow the activation or retention of ELECTRIC  
mode, the message “Electric mode currently  
unavailable” is displayed in the instrument panel.
