Peugeot Rifter 2020-2023 Owner's Manual Driving Driving modes

133Driving6N.NeutralTo 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.Drive (automatic forward gear)B.Brake (regenerative braking)Regenerative braking (the button lights up to indicate its activation).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).B : Brake (regenerative braking activated).Operation►Move the selector by pressing it forwards (N or R) or rearwards (N or D) once or twice, passing the point of resistance if necessary.For example, to change fromP toR (with your foot on the brake pedal), either push forwards twice without passing the point of resistance or push just once, passing the point of resistance.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/R, press button B to activate/deactivate the function (the button lights up when the function is activated).D/R 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 modesDriving modes are selected using the following control:1.Pressing the control activates Eco mode. The indicator lamp comes on. (Petrol or Diesel)
134Driving2.Pressing the control displays the modes on the instrument panel.With an electric motor, when starting the vehicle, no mode can be selected until the READYindicator lamp is displayed.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 reduce consumption of the traction battery's electrical energy by limiting engine torque.Power (Electric)Allows a fully laden vehicle (GVW) to obtain equivalent performance to that of an unladen vehicle in Normal mode.All modes are displayed on the instrument panel, except for Normalmode.Coasting modeDepending on version or engine, with an EAT8 gearbox and the gear selector in mode D, gradually releasing the accelerator pedal fully allows free-wheeling which can save fuel.A drop in engine speed is normal (rev counter at idle, drop in engine noise).Gear shift indicator(Depending on engine)This system is designed to reduce fuel consumption by recommending the most suitable gear.OperationDepending on the driving situation and the vehicle's equipment, the system may recommend skipping one or more gears.Gear engagement recommendations are not to be considered mandatory. Indeed, the configuration of the road, the traffic density and safety remain determining factors when choosing the best gear. Therefore, the driver remains responsible for deciding whether or not to follow the system’s advice.The system cannot be deactivated.With an automatic gearbox, the system is only active in manual operation.The information appears on the instrument panel, in the form of an “up” or “down” arrow and the recommended gear.The system adapts the gear change instructions according to the driving conditions (e.g.slope, load) and driving style (e.g.power demand, acceleration, braking).The system never suggests:–engaging first gear;–engaging reverse gear.Stop & Start (Petrol or Diesel)The Stop & Start function puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during phases when the vehicle is stationary (e.g.red lights, traffic jams). The engine automatically restarts - START mode - as soon as the driver indicates the intention of moving off again.Primarily designed for urban use, the function is intended to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.The function does not affect the functionalities of the vehicle, in particular the braking.Opening the bonnetBefore doing anything under the bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start system to avoid any risk of injury caused by the engine restarting automatically.
