Peugeot 208 2020-2025 Driving Drive selector (Electric)

97Driving6or forwards, while pressing the Unlockbutton to engage reverseR.Then, fromD orR:Release the brake pedal.Accelerate gradually to automatically release the electric parking brake.The vehicle moves off immediately.Automatic gearboxNever try to start the engine by pushing the vehicle.Switching the vehicle offRegardless of the current gearbox mode, mode P is immediately engaged automatically when the ignition is switched off.However, in mode N, mode P will be engaged after a delay of 5 seconds (time to enable free-wheeling mode).Check that modeP has been engaged and that the electric parking brake was applied automatically; if not, apply it manually.The corresponding indicator lamps on the gear selector and the electric parking brake control must be on, as well as the indicatorlamps on the instrument panel.Gearbox malfunctionThis warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and the display of a message.Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.Do not drive faster than 62mph (100km/h), keeping to the speed limit.Switching of the gearbox to back-up modeMode D locks in third gear.The paddles on the steering wheel do not work and mode M is no longer accessible.You may feel a significant jolt on engaging reverse gear. This will not damage the gearbox.Selector malfunctionMinor malfunctionThis warning lamp comes on, accompanied by the display of a message and an audible signal.Drive carefully.Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.In some cases, the selector indicator lamps may no longer come on, but the gearbox state is still displayed on the instrument panel.Major malfunctionThis warning lamp comes on, accompanied by the display of a message.You must stop the vehicle.Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch off the ignition.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.Drive selector (Electric)The drive selector is a pulse selector with a regenerative braking function.The drive selector provides traction control based on the driving style, the road profile and the vehicle load.With regenerative braking activated, it also manages engine braking when the accelerator pedal is released.P.ParkFor parking the vehicle: the front wheels are blocked.R.ReverseN.Neutral To move the vehicle with the ignition off and so allow it to free-wheel.For more information on Free-wheeling, refer to the corresponding section.D/B.Automatic forward drive (D) or automatic forward drive with regenerative braking (B)Information displayed on the instrument panelWhen the ignition is switched on, the drive selector status is displayed on the instrument panel:P : Park.R : Reverse.N : Neutral.D : Drive (automatic forward gear).
98DrivingB : Brake (automatic forward gear with regenerative braking function activated).OperationA.ButtonPTo put the gearbox into Park mode.B.Unlock buttonTo unlock the selector and come out ofP or change toR, with the foot on the brake pedal.Press and hold this button before pushing the selector.C.Selector state indicators (R, N, D/B)Move the selector by pushing it forwards (Nor R) or backwards (N or D/B) once or twice, passing the point of resistance if necessary.The push selector returns to its initial position when released.For example, to change fromP toR, either push forwards twice without passing the point of resistance or push just once, passing the point of resistance:In the first case, the selector goes fromP toN, then fromN toR.In the second case, the selector goes directly fromP toR.Regenerative brakingWith the Brake function and when deceleratingThe Brake function emulates engine braking, slowing the vehicle with no need to depress the brake pedal. The vehicle slows more quickly when the driver releases the accelerator pedal.The energy recovered when the accelerator pedal is released is then used to partially recharge the traction battery, thereby increasing the vehicle's driving range.The resulting deceleration of the vehicle does not cause the brake lamps to come on.From mode D/B, move the push selector backwards to activate/deactivate the function.D on the instrument panel is replaced with B.The system status is not saved when the ignition is switched off.In some situations (e.g.battery full, extreme temperatures), the amount of regenerative braking may be temporarily limited, resulting in less deceleration.The driver must remain alert to traffic conditions and must always be ready to use the brake pedal.With the brake pedalWhen the brake pedal is depressed, the intelligent braking system automatically recovers some of the energy and uses it to recharge the traction battery.This energy recovery also reduces use of the brake pads, thereby limiting their wear.The driver may experience a different sensation when depressing the brake pedal compared to a vehicle without regenerative braking.Driving modesThe driving modes available depend on the engine and equipment of the vehicle.Driving modes are selected using the following control:Press the control to display the modes on the instrument panel, and depending on version, on the screen with PEUGEOT Connect Nav.With an electric motor, you cannot select a mode if the READY lamp is off.When the message disappears, the selected mode is activated and remains indicated on the instrument panel (except Normalmode).Whenever the ignition is switched on, Normaldriving mode is selected by default.NormalTo restore the default settings.EcoTo reduce energy consumption by reducing the performance of the heating and air conditioning, without deactivating them.To further reduce the electrical energy consumption of the traction battery by limiting the engine torque.
