Peugeot Rifter 2020-2023 Owner's Manual Driving Stop & Start (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.
135Driving6Driving on flooded roadsBefore entering into a flooded area, it is strongly recommended that you deactivate the Stop & Start system.For more information on Driving recommendations, particularly on flooded roads, refer to the corresponding section.Deactivation/ActivationWith buttonTo deactivate or reactivate the system, press this button.The indicator lamp is on when the system is deactivated.With touch screenThe systemis activated/deactivated via the Vehicle/Driving touch screen menu.If the system has been deactivated in STOP mode, the engine restarts immediately.The system is reactivated automatically whenever the engine is started by the driver.OperationMain conditions for operationThe driver’s door must be closed.The sliding side door must be closed.The driver's seat belt must be fastened.The level of charge in the battery must be sufficient.The temperature of the engine must be within its nominal operating range.The outside temperature must be between 0°C and 35°C.Putting the engine into standby (STOP mode)The engine automatically enters standby mode as soon as the driver indicates their intention to stop:With a manual gearbox: at a speed below 2 mph (3km/h) or with the vehicle stationary (depending on engine), with the gear lever in neutral and the clutch pedal released.With an automatic gearbox: at a speed below 2 mph (3 km/h) or with the vehicle stationary (depending on engine), with the brake pedal depressed or the gear selector in positionN.Time counterA time counter adds up the time spent in standby during the journey. It is reset to zero every time the ignition is switched on.Special cases:The engine will not go into standby if the conditions for operation are not met and in the following cases:Steep slope (ascending or descending).Vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10km/h) since the last engine start (with the key or the START/STOP button).Electric parking brake applied or being applied.Needed to maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment.Demisting active.In these cases, this indicator lamp flashes for a few seconds, then goes off.After the engine has restarted, STOP mode is not available until the vehicle has reached a speed of 5 mph (8km/h).During parking manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear or turning the steering wheel.
136DrivingRestarting the engine (START mode)The engine automatically restarts as soon as the driver indicates the intention of moving off again:With a manual gearbox: with the clutch pedal fully depressed.With an automatic gearbox:With the selector in position D or M: with the brake pedal released.With the selector in position N and the brake pedal released: with the selector at D or M.With the selector in position P and the brake pedal depressed: with the selector at R, N, Dor M.Reverse gear engaged.Special casesThe engine will restart automatically if the conditions for operation are met again and in the following case:Vehicle speed exceeds 2 mph (3km/h) (depending on engine).In this case, this indicator lamp flashes for a few seconds, then goes off.MalfunctionsDepending on the vehicle’s equipment:In the event of a system malfunction, this warning lamp flashes on the instrument panel.The warning lamp in this button flashes and a message appears, accompanied by an audible signal.Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.The vehicle stalls in STOP modeAll of the instrument panel warning lamps come on if there is a fault.Depending on version, a warning message may also be displayed, prompting you to place the gear selector in position N and depress the brake pedal.Switch off the ignition then start the engine again with the key or the "START/STOP" button.12V batteryThe Stop & Start system requires a 12 V battery of specific technology and specification.All work must be carried out only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshopTyre under-inflation detectionThis system alerts the driver if one or more tyres suffer a drop in pressure.The alert is raised when the vehicle is moving, not when stationary.It compares the information given by the wheel speed sensors with reference values, which must be reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.It takes into account the last values stored during the reinitialisation request. It is therefore essential that the tyre pressure is correct during the operation. This operation is the driver’s responsibility.The tyre under-inflation detection cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.This system does not avoid the need to regularly check the tyre pressures (including the spare wheel), especially before a long journey.Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly in adverse conditions (heavy load, high speed, long journey):worsens road-holding.lengthens braking distances.causes premature wear of the tyres.increases energy consumption.The inflation pressures defined for the vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure label.For more information on the Identification markings, refer to the corresponding section.Checking tyre pressuresThis check should be done monthly when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of less than 6 miles (10km) at moderate speeds).Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures shown on the label.
