Peugeot 5008 2009-2016 Owner's Manual Driving

8Driving1475008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015Driving recommendationsObserve the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your hands on the wheel so that you are ready to react at any time to any eventuality.On a long journey, a break every two hours is strongly recommended.In difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate the need to brake and increase the distance from other vehicles.Driving on flooded roadsWe strongly advise against driving on flooded roads, as this could cause serious damage to the engine or gearbox, as well as to the electrical systems of your vehicle.If you are obliged to drive through water:-check that the depth of water does not exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that might be generated by other users,-deactivate the Stop & Start system,-drive as slowly as possible without stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h),-do not stop and do not switch off the engine.On leaving the flooded road, as soon as circumstances allow, make several light brake applications to dry the brake discs and pads.If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.Never drive with the parking brake applied - Risk of overheating and damage to the braking system!Do not park or run the engine when stationary in areas where inflammable substances and materials (dry grass, dead leaves...) might come into contact with the hot exhaust system - Risk of fire!Never leave a vehicle unsupervised with the engine running. If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake and put the gearbox into neutral or positionN or P, depending on the type of gearbox.Important!

Once the engine is running, release the key.Starting the engineIn certain cases, you may have to apply more force to the steering (wheels on full lock, for example).FWith a petrol engine, operate the starter motor by turning the key to position 3without pressing the accelerator pedal, until the engine starts. Once the engine is running, release the key.FWith a Diesel engine, turn the key to position 2, ignition on, to operate the engine pre-heating system.Never leave the engine running in an enclosed area without adequate ventilation: internal combustion engines emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon monoxide. Danger of intoxication and death.In very severe wintry conditions (temperatures below -23°C), to ensure the correct operation and durability of the mechanical components of your vehicle, engine and gearbox, it is necessary to leave the engine running for 4 minutes before moving off.In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can stay on for a longer period. When the engine is hot, the warning lamp does not come on.With the parking brake applied and the gearbox in neutral or position Nor P:Fdepress the clutch pedal fully (manual gearbox),orFpress the brake pedal firmly (electronic or automatic gearbox),Finsert the key into the ignition switch; the system recognises the code,Funlock the steering column by simultaneously turning the steering and the key.If the engine does not start straight away, switch off the ignition. Wait a few moments before operating the starter motor again. If the engine does not start after several attempts, do not keep trying: you risk damaging the starter motor or the engine. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.In temperate conditions, do not leave the engine at idle to warm up but move off straight away and drive at moderate speed.
Driving1505008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015Key left in the "Ignition on" positionIf the key has been left in the ignition switch at position 2 (Ignition on), the ignition will be switched off automatically after one hour.To switch the ignition back on, turn the key to position 1 (Stop), then back to position 2 (Ignition on).Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key, which would weigh down on its blade in the ignition switch and could cause a malfunction.For more information, refer to the "Practical information" section, under "Energy economy mode".Switching off the engineEnergy economy modeAfter switching off the engine (position 1-Stop), for a maximum of 30 minutes you can still use functions such as the audio and telematic system, the wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, ...To facilitate unlocking of the steering column, it is recommended that the wheels be returned to the straight ahead position before switching off the engine.FCheck that the parking brake is correctly applied, particularly on sloping ground.Never switch off the ignition before the vehicle is at a complete stop.

Driving1785008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015Stopping the vehicleBefore switching off the engine, you can engage position P or N to place the gearbox in neutral.In both cases, apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle, unless it is programmed to automatic mode.Operating faultWhen the ignition is on, the lighting of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the multifunction screen, indicates a gearbox malfunction.In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel a substantial knock when changing from Pto R and from N to R. This will not cause any damage to the gearbox.Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed restrictions permitting.Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.This warning lamp may also come on if a door is opened.Invalid value during manual operationThis symbol is displayed if a gear is not engaged correctly (selector between two positions).You risk damaging the gearbox:-if you press the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time,-if you force the lever from positionPto another position when the battery is flat.To reduce fuel consumption when stationary for long periods with the engine running (traffic jam...), position the gear lever at N and apply the parking brake, unless it is programmed in automatic mode.If the lever is not in position P, when the driver's door is opened or approximately 45 seconds after the ignition is switched off, there is an audible signal and a message appears.FReturn the lever to position P; the audible signal stops and the message disappears.
8Driving1795008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015Gear shift indicator*OperationDepending 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.Example:-You are in third gear.-You press the accelerator pedal.-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.* Depending on engine.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.With an electronic or automatic gearbox, the system is only active in manual mode.On BlueHDi Diesel 136 and 150 versions with manual gearbox, the system may suggest changing into neutral so that the engine can go into standby (STOP mode with Stop & Start), in certain driving conditions. In this case, N is displayed in the instrument panel.
Driving1805008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015Stop & StartOperationGoing into engine STOP modeThe "ECO" indicator 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 PureTech 130 and BlueHDi 115 and 120 versions, when you put the gear lever into neutral and release the clutch pedal,-with an electronic gearbox, at speeds below 5 mph (8 km/h), when you press the brake pedal or you put the gear selector in position N,Special cases: STOP mode not availableSTOP 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,-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,-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.In this case, the "ECO" indicator lamp flashes for a few seconds then goes off.This operation is perfectly normal.Never refuel with the engine in STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the key.For your comfort, during parking maoeuvres, 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...The Stop & Startsystem 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.Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.-with an automatic gearbox, vehicle stationary, when you press the brake pedal or you put the gear selector in position N.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.
8Driving1815008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015Going into engine START modeThe "ECO" indicator lamp goes off and the engine starts automatically:-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,●or when you engage reverse gear.-with an automatic gearbox:●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,●or when you engage reverse gear.In this case the "ECO" indicator lamp flashes for a few seconds, then goes off.Special cases: START invoked automaticallyThis operation is perfectly normal.DeactivationAt any time, press the "ECO OFF"switch to deactivate the system.This is confirmed by the indicator lamp in the switch coming on accompanied by a message in the screen.START mode is invoked automatically when:-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, 2mph (3km/h) with the PureTech 130 and BlueHDi 115 and 120 versions, 7 mph (11km/h) with an electronic gearbox or 2mph (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.If the system has been deactivated in STOP mode, the engine restarts immediately.
Driving1825008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015ReactivationOperating faultIn the event of a fault with the system, the indicator lamp in the "ECO OFF" switch 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.MaintenanceThis system requires a 12 V battery with a special specification and technology (reference numbers available from PEUGEOT dealers).Fitting a battery not listed by PEUGEOTintroduces the risk of malfunction of the system.To charge the battery, use a 12 V charger and observe the polarity.Press the "ECO OFF" switch again.The system is active again; this is confirmed by the indicator lamp in the switch going off and a message in the screen.The system is reactivated automatically at every new start using the key.Before doing anything under the bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start system to avoid any risk of injury resulting from automatic operation of START mode.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.
8Driving1835008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015Tyre under-inflation detectionSystem 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 each tyre (except the spare wheel).The system triggers an alert if a drop in pressure is detected in one or more tyres.This system does not avoid the need 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).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.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 vigilance on the part of the driver.
Driving1845008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015The alert is given by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal, and depending on equipment, the display of a message.Under-inflation alertThe flashing and then fixed illumination of the under-inflation warning lamp accompanied by the illumination of the service warning lamp indicates a fault with the system.Operating faultIn the event of a problem on one of the tyres, the symbol or the message appears, according to equipment, to identify it.FReduce speed, avoid sudden steering movements or harsh brake applications.FStop as soon as it is safe to do so.The loss of pressure detected does not always lead to visible deformation of the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.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.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).In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is not assured.Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshopto have the system checked or, following the repair of a puncture, to have the original wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted.FIf 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.orFIn the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel (according to equipment).Any tyre repair or replacement on a wheel fitted with this system must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.If after changing a tyre, a wheel is not detected by your vehicle (fitting snow tyres for example), you must have the system reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
8Driving1855008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015Visual and audible front and rear parking sensorsSystem consisting of four proximity sensors, installed in the front and/or rear bumper.It detects any obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, barrier...) located behind the vehicle, however, it will not be able to detect obstacles located immediately below the bumper.The parking sensors are switched on:-by engaging reverse gear,-at a speed below 6 mph (10 km/h) in forward gear.This is accompanied by an audible signal and display of the vehicle in the multifunction screen.The proximity information is indicated by:-an audible signal which becomes more rapid as the vehicle approaches the obstacle,-an image in the multifunction screen, with blocks which move closer to the vehicle.The obstacle is located in relation to the emission of the audible signal by the speakers; front or rear and right or left.When the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle is less than approximately thirtycentimetres, the audible signal becomes continuous and/or the "Danger" symbol appears, depending on the version of multifunction screen.An object, such as a stake, a roadworks cone or any other similar object may be detected at the start of the manoeuvre but may no longer be detected when the vehicle moves nearer to it.
Driving1865008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015The parking sensors are switched off:-when you come out of reverse gear,-when the speed is higher than 6 mph (10km/h) in forward gear,-when the vehicle has been stationary for more than three seconds in forward gear.DeactivationOperating faultReactivationFPress button A, the warning lamp comes on, the system is fully deactivated.If an operating fault occurs, this warning lamp is displayed in the instrument panel and/or a message appears in the multifunction screen, accompanied by an audible signal (short beep), when reverse gear is engaged.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the sensors are not covered with mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is engaged, an audible signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors may be dirty.When the vehicle is being driven at a speed below approximately 6 mph (10 km/h), certain sources of noise (motorcycles, lorries, pneumatic drills,...) may trigger the parking sensor audible signals.The parking sensor system cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.The system will be deactivated automatically when a trailer is being towed or when a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by PEUGEOT).FPress button A again, the warning lamp switches off, the system is reactivated.
