During this phase, the characteristic noise of mechanical release of the brakes may be heard, indicating the imminent movement of the vehicle.Operating faultHill start assist is deactivated in the following situations:-when the clutch pedal is released,-when the parking brake is applied,-when the engine is switched off,-when the engine stalls.If a malfunction of the system occurs, this warning lamp comes on accompanied by an audible signal and confirmed by a message in the screen. Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.This system (also called HHC - Hill Holder Control), linked to the dynamic stability control system, makes hill starts easier and is activated in the following conditions:-the vehicle must be stationary, engine running, foot on the brake,-the gradient of the road must be steeper than 5%,-uphill, the gearbox must be in neutral or in a gear other than reverse,-downhill, reverse gear must be engaged.The Hill Start Assist system is a driving aid.

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!Risk of fire!As the exhaust system of your vehicle is very hot, even several minutes after switching off the engine, do not park or leave the engine running over areas where inflammable substances and materials are present: grass, leaves, etc.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 position N or P, depending on the type of gearbox.Important!
